Cockpit walkthrough: the Needs-you rail

Developer cockpitDev toolsDuration

This 32-second walkthrough follows Developer cockpit in FavTray, a Mac menu bar app for developers, one step at a time. The Needs-you rail, provider status and the fix on every card, step by step. The rail numbers each card by urgency: an agent waiting, Claude at 92%, red CI on a branch, a dev server not answering. You restart the server from its card, open the CI & PRs module and return with Esc, kill a dev server behind a confirm bar, and see the status strip appear when the provider itself is failing.
