claude-ns-hub 0.3.0

Personal AI project management hub — North Star milestone tracking, live Claude sessions, CTX context alignment.

claude-ns-hub

The personal AI project hub that runs while you work. North Star milestone tracking · live Claude exec sessions · entity corpus browser · mobile-ready terminal.

One command. Your whole AI workflow, visible from any device.

Why you need this

While Claude Code runs your tasks autonomously, you're flying blind — no idea what it just did, which session is live, or whether it's stuck. claude-ns-hub fixes that:

• See everything live: exec sessions, session IDs, idle/busy state — on your phone while you're away
• Queue work without interrupting Claude: tap a stone, queue it, it runs on next idle
• Resume any session: ↻ button resumes exact conversation context, never lose work
• One install, zero config: auto-discovers projects, spawns entity corpus, exposes to Tailscale

The engineers shipping the most with Claude Code are the ones who can monitor, queue, and intervene — without context-switching.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10+
• Claude Code CLI installed and authenticated (claude --version)
• tmux installed (brew install tmux / apt install tmux)
• Tailscale (optional, for remote access)

Install (60 seconds)

pip install claude-ns-hub
hub                          # starts immediately on http://localhost:9001
# → All features auto-active: North Star, exec sessions, entity corpus,
#   Tailscale port-expose, anonymous usage telemetry (opt-out below).

That's it — no config file, no env vars, no separate daemon. Open the printed URL in any browser (phone or laptop, via Tailscale) and you're in.

Telemetry & privacy

The hub sends one anonymized hub_start event on startup (fields: ts, event, install_id=sha256(hostname)[:16], version, os). No PII, no code, no stone text is transmitted. Disable any time:

curl -X POST http://localhost:9001/api/hub/consent \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"data_collection": false}'

Quick start (manual install)

# 1. Start the hub
claude-ns-hub
# Hub starts at http://<your-ip>:9001
# North Star · CTX · Corpus · Market — all tabs, live

# 2. Inject the NS Hub protocol into your global Claude config (run once)
hub install-global
# Writes the stone lifecycle protocol to ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
# Without this, exec sessions won't know how to update stone status

# 3. Add your first project
# In the hub UI: North Star tab → "+ node" button
# Set the project name and repo_path to your local project directory

# 4. Queue a stone and dispatch
# Click a project card → "+ milestone" → type your task
# Click "live" to start an exec session — Claude Code picks up the stone automatically

Exec session setup

The hub launches Claude Code in a tmux session named claude-exec-<PROJECT>. For this to work on a new machine:

# Verify Claude Code is authenticated
claude --version

# Install hub hooks into Claude Code's global settings (run once per machine)
hub install-global

# The hub will auto-create tmux sessions when you dispatch work
# Monitor live progress in the "session" pane of any project card
