TODO: add Adom Project Manager back to the dock (FIRST add-back, per John)

John Lauer · ·edited ·closed by Colby Knox

TODO from John, 2026-08-23: every app removed from the curated dock list today gets added back when it is dock-ready. Priority order:

  1. Adom Project Manager (adom/adom-project-manager, was order 60): FIRST to add back, John's explicit priority.
  2. Adom Symbol (adom/adom-symbol, was order 70).
  3. Adom Footprint (adom/adom-footprint, was order 80).

NOT planned for return: adom-chipsmith (John 2026-08-23: "I don't want chipsmith in dock bar anymore").

The bar for each add-back (the guide: adom/hydrogen files/docs/dockbar.md): dockbar.json 1.2.0 at the page repo root; serve with a direct 127.0.0.1 URL (self-backgrounding, idempotent, version-aware with exact-argv retire excluding self); /api/status LEDs + owned rollup with CORS + OPTIONS on every /api/*; ADOM_DOCK_WEBVIEW takeover; say list + Say it strip first on the page; settings-layout settings window; taskbar progress (determinate from measured durations, indeterminate for open-ended AI work). If the app's main UI is the product, that UI is the dock target (no separate launcher page). Then a cold verify on a real box, and re-add the row to dock/apps.json.

Update 2026-08-23 (later the same night): hero-studio also removed from the curated list, and like chipsmith it is NOT planned for return (John: "I don't think we need hero studio in the dock bar anymore"). The add-back list stands as: 1. Adom Project Manager (FIRST), 2. Adom Symbol, 3. Adom Footprint.

Project Manager is back on the curated list as of today (dock/apps.json order 100, commit b6835d0b): the first add-back, per the plan. Onboarding issue with the full dock-ready + dashboard-contract checklist filed on adom/adom-project-manager; the project-manager AI thread is picking up Barrett's codebase now. Remaining add-backs when ready: Symbol, Footprint.
