# ruflo 3.51.0: the /ruflo console

`@claude-flow/cli`, `claude-flow` and `ruflo` 3.51.0 are on npm (`latest`, `alpha`, `v3alpha`).

## `/ruflo`: one command for the whole cockpit

The new **ruflo-console** mod (#3614) turns Claude Code into a live view of ruflo:

- **Views** (keys 1–9, g, q, e, m):
  - overview with health alerts;
  - swarm topology graph with a leader heartbeat;
  - claims lanes with countdown rings and handoff arrows;
  - federation map by trust level;
  - plugin health matrix;
  - learning pipeline;
  - MetaHarness radar;
  - memory;
  - cost gauge;
  - agent timeline;
  - approvals queue;
  - event stream;
  - missions.
- **Act from it:** the palette (`p`) and the actions on a selected item. Every change shows the exact command it will run and asks y/n first.
- **Agent drill-down** (`d`) with logs and timeline.
- **Auto-start:** in a ruflo project the pane docks by itself where there is room (144+ columns). Elsewhere the bar above the prompt shows "/ruflo to open".
- **Headless:** `/ruflo <view>` or `/ruflo dump <view>` prints the view as text, for `claude -p` and scripts.
- **Every old command still works:** `/ruflo-console`, `/ruflo-mods` and `/ruflo-swarm-*`. `/ruflo mods` and `/ruflo swarm <sub>` reach the other two mods.

## Mods on by default in `ruflo init`

- `ruflo init` now enables ruflo-mods, ruflo-swarm and ruflo-console through `.claude/settings.json` (#3612, #3618). It installs them from the `ruvnet/ruflo` marketplace.
- `--no-mods` opts out. `ruflo init upgrade --mods` adds them to an existing project.
- `ruflo mods doctor` catches a stale marketplace copy, the cause of "Unknown command: /ruflo-mods", and prints the exact repair. `ruflo mods install --source local` loads the plugins live from a ruflo checkout.

## ADR-406: command registry and mission control

- A canonical catalog of every ruflo command (243 entries). Browse it with `/ruflo commands` or `ruflo catalog`.
- Observation-only mission control: `ruflo mission` and mission MCP tools, shown in the console's Missions view.

## Verified

- **Fresh install from npm:** in an isolated config, `npx ruflo@3.51.0 init` installs all three plugins and `ruflo mods doctor` passes. `/ruflo help`, `/ruflo-console swarm`, `/ruflo mods` and `/ruflo dump overview` all answer from the published plugins.
- **Live interactive checks:**
  - 31 headless `/ruflo` commands;
  - the pane auto-opened, and hotkeys worked;
  - the palette opened;
  - a confirmed claim was written to `claims.json`;
  - the animation produced 7 distinct frames out of 10.
- **Release manifests:** linux, macOS and Windows each pass 117/117 with 0 drift and a valid Ed25519 signature. The helper manifest is re-signed at 3.51.0.

Requires Claude Code 2.1.287+ for mods (2.1.277–2.1.286 with `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1`). Without function hooks the classic hooks keep working unchanged.
