Add a chat window to ops dashboard

[jwildfire]

Add a chat interface that allows me to pass prompts to the orchestrator agent directly from the live session dashboard and see it's responses.

@jwildfire my best reading of this: add a chat box to the session-hub live dashboard (#24) so you can send a prompt to the running agent and see its reply without switching to the terminal.

That collides with a decision already resolved in #24: the dashboard is a static, server-less generator on a watch loop (design doc §8, D1 "static watch loop, no server"). A live chat needs some channel for prompts in and responses out that does not exist today, so I do not want to guess the mechanism.

1. Which "orchestrator agent" is the target — the main interactive Claude Code session in your terminal, or a separate background/orchestrator process (one of the jobs tracked in state.json)?
2. Is a lightweight local server acceptable for this (breaking the current no-server constraint), or would you rather keep the dashboard static and have it write prompts to a file the agent polls?
3. For v1, does "see its responses" mean live streaming in the dashboard, or is "submit a prompt, see it land in the transcript/log on next refresh" good enough?

1. main orchestator agent
2. lightweight local server is fine
3. live streaming in the dashboard. dots when thinking. then post response.

Promoted → #77 — Requirement: chat with the orchestrator from the live session dashboard.
Your three answers are the constraints: target = the main orchestrator session; a lightweight local server is in (recorded as superseding #24's "static, no server" D1 for this feature — the generated pages stay static, the server is additive); v1 UX = live streaming with thinking dots, then the response.
Mechanism candidates are listed for design: CLI session-messaging, the Remote Control bridge (#46) pointed locally, or a prompt-queue + transcript-JSONL tail streamed through the server.
Closing as resolved.
