FlowMaster — Mission Control demo

A polished, presenter-ready command-center for FlowMaster. Lives at shad/flowmaster-mission-control-demo on Gitea.

What this is (and isn't)

Is:

• A single-page React 19 app (Vite + ReactFlow + cmdk + framer-motion + zustand
  • dagre).
• Polished command-center for any FlowMaster process: graph, queue, inspector, tour, command palette, live-mode toggle, run history.
• Two data modes:
  • SNAPSHOT (default): bundled src/scenarios.json, captured from demo.flow-master.ai. Fast, offline, deterministic.
  • LIVE: in-browser fetch from the same backend via the API client at src/lib/api.ts (dev-login → bearer → /api/ea2/work-items → /api/ea2/process-definitions/{k}/graph → /api/runtime/transactions/{id}). Loading and error states are wired through src/scenes/MissionControl.tsx.

Isn't:

• Not a replacement for the existing demo at https://demo.flow-master.ai (Next.js fm-shell). This is a separate command-center experience.
• Not multi-tenant. No auth UI, no tenancy switcher, no settings.
• Not wired to actually mutate state. Every action button (start runtime, dispatch agent, approve, decline, confirm) is preview-only and fires a toast naming the endpoint that would make it real.

Scenarios in the catalog

id	mode	source
procurement	live	Purchase Requisition → PO (pr_to_po_def on demo.flow-master.ai)
extra-1	live	Atlas F1 Fresh (procurement variant)
extra-2	live	Atlas F1 Fresh (procurement variant)
ar	blueprint	AR · Customer Refund Approval
hcm	blueprint	HCM · New Hire Onboarding
gl	blueprint	GL · Period-End Close
service	blueprint	Service Ops · Customer Incident

Live = backed by a real EA2 process definition currently in the demo backend, with real runtime transactions and a real work-item queue.

Blueprint = hand-modelled in the same typed format. Identical UI surface; the backend just doesn't have a runnable definition for it yet. Internal metadata carries isSynthetic: true for provenance audits.

How honesty is enforced in this code

This pass came out of an Oracle review that called out theatrical bits in the prior version. Safeguards now in place:

• No invented numbers. src/components/Telemetry.tsx derives every value from the active scenarios (SLA = 1 - errored / cases, agent acceptance = fraction of agent runs not in proposed). The throughput sparkline plots the actual running rollup over time, not a sine wave. The "ui tick" dot is labelled as a UI heartbeat and tooltip-named as such.
• No fake buttons. Every preview-only action fires a toast that names the endpoint that would make it real, and carries a preview marker.
• No misleading tour copy. Blueprint tours frame the scenario as an industry blueprint, not "we don't have this yet".
• Mode is always visible. Topbar has a SNAPSHOT/LIVE pill, last-fetch age, and a refresh button when live.

Live-mode mechanics (the CORS gotcha)

demo.flow-master.ai does not advertise CORS headers for arbitrary origins. src/lib/api.ts therefore uses an empty baseUrl everywhere (both dev and prod). All /api/* requests are same-origin from the browser's perspective; whatever is serving the page is responsible for proxying them to the backend.

• Dev (pnpm dev): vite.config.ts proxies /api/* to ${VITE_FM_BASE:-https://demo.flow-master.ai}.
• Prod (Docker image): the bundled nginx.conf reverse-proxies /api/* to https://demo.flow-master.ai. The image is intended to sit behind the mc.flow-master.ai ingress (see FM06/flowmaster-ops overlay).
• Anywhere else: set VITE_FM_BASE=https://your-backend at build time and accept that browsers will reject the cross-origin call. Live mode then fails gracefully — setMode("live") catches the error, raises an mc-banner-err banner + error toast, and falls back to snapshot.

Run, test, build

pnpm install

# refresh the bundled snapshot from demo.flow-master.ai
pnpm fetch:scenarios

# dev (with backend proxy for live mode)
pnpm dev                                # → http://127.0.0.1:5173

# tests
pnpm test                               # vitest, 22 tests across api, live,
                                        # synthetic, layout, store

# build
pnpm build                              # tsc + vite, single chunk ~225 KB gz

# end-to-end smoke + screenshots
pnpm qa:smoke                           # playwright headless, 28 assertions

# DOM layout audit
pnpm qa:layout

Deploy

Production deployment is tracked in FM06/flowmaster-ops PR #1164, which adds three resources to manifests/overlays/demo/:

• mc-deployment.yaml — 2-replica nginx Deployment in the demo namespace
• mc-service.yaml — ClusterIP service on port 80
• mc-ingress.yaml — Traefik ingress at mc.flow-master.ai with cert-manager DNS-01 cert

Status: the PR is open and mergeable. The live URL https://mc.flow-master.ai is not yet serving — two pre-merge action items remain for the trusted updater:

1. Cloudflare A record mc.flow-master.ai → 65.21.71.186, 91.98.159.56 (same as hakeem.flow-master.ai).
2. Gitea Actions must have published the first image tag (gitea.flow-master.ai/shad/mission-control-demo:sha-…) — mc-deployment.yaml pins that explicit SHA, not :latest.

Until the PR merges + DNS is added, the artifact is this repo + the open PR.

pnpm build
# dist/ is the static site. The Dockerfile bakes it into a tiny nginx
# image. CI in .gitea/workflows/build.yml builds + publishes on push to main.

What's intentionally not here

• Authentication UI (dev-login is used because this is a demo lane).
• Mutation endpoints (every action is preview-only and the toast names the endpoint).
• Mobile layout (1440px-and-up demo surface).
• Route persistence / deep linking (scene + scenario live in memory).
• i18n (English only).

Small, well-scoped follow-ups — not architectural changes.
