+# Daily Activity Summaries — Design Spec
+
+**Date:** 2026-04-27
+**Status:** Approved for implementation planning
+**Target release:** v0.3.0-launchmetrics.1
+
+---
+
+## Goal
+
+Add a "Daily Activities" view to the dashboard that infers what the user actually worked on each day per project, by sending each day's user prompts to Claude Haiku via the local `claude` CLI and presenting the result as 2–5 bulleted activities per (day, project) cell.
+
+This complements the existing token/cost metrics — those tell you *how much* you used Claude Code; this tells you *what for*.
+
+---
+
+## Why
+
+The dashboard currently shows tokens, cost, and session counts. None of those tell the user (or their team) what was actually accomplished. Asking an LLM to summarize a day's prompts produces a topic-level digest that turns the dashboard into a lightweight personal/team retrospective tool.
+
+---
+
+## Constraints
+
+- **No new pip dependencies.** Pure stdlib + the existing `claude` CLI already installed by every user of this tool.
+- **Use the user's existing Claude account** — no API key management. Calls go through the `claude` CLI subprocess, inheriting OAuth/Enterprise auth.
+- **Cheap by default.** First-init cost should be measured in pennies, not dollars. Incremental refresh in cents.
+- **Non-blocking degradation.** If `claude` is not installed or fails, the rest of the dashboard works fine; the new section gracefully shows an error banner.
+- **No recursive cost inflation.** The summarizer must not write its own sessions back into `~/.claude/projects/`, where the scanner would re-ingest them as "user activity".
+
+---
+
+## Architecture overview
+
+```
+                    ┌────────────────────────────────┐
+JSONL files ──┐     │   summarizer.py (new module)   │
+              │     │                                │

+              │       (new table: daily_summaries)
+              │
+              ▼
+        dashboard.py ── /api/daily-summaries ──▶ browser
+                              (existing      ┐
+                               + new endpt)  │  new "Daily Activities"
+                                             │  section below charts
+                                             │  honors range filter
+```
+
+Three trigger points invoke the summarizer:
+
+1. **Eager pass** — `cli.py dashboard` startup, after the scan, summarizes the top 20% of (day, project) cells by cost (capped at 50). Blocking with `Summarizing… N/M` progress bar matching the scan UX.
+2. **Lazy pass** — `/api/daily-summaries?date=YYYY-MM-DD` runs the summarizer on demand for cells the user expands in the UI that aren't cached.
+3. **Incremental refresh** — subsequent dashboard runs detect prompt-hash mismatches in the cached eager set and re-summarize only the cells whose underlying prompts changed.
+
+---
+
+## Components
+
+### `summarizer.py` (new module)
+
+Pure logic + the subprocess call. No HTTP. No global state beyond reading config from env vars.
+
+Public functions:
+- `collect_prompts(date, project_path, db_path) -> str` — gather all `type=user` records for that (date, project), filter noise, dedupe, sort, concat, cap at 4 KB, return as a single string.
+- `prompt_hash(text) -> str` — sha256 hex digest, used as cache invalidation signal.
+- `rank_cells_by_cost(db_path) -> list[(date, project, cost)]` — return top `min(80th-percentile, SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS=50)` cells, sorted descending by cost.
+- `summarize_cell(date, project, db_path) -> dict` — orchestrates: collect, hash, check cache, call `claude`, write back. Returns `{"activities": [...], "cached": bool, "error": str|None}`.
+- `run_claude(prompt_text) -> tuple[list[str]|None, str|None]` — subprocess call; returns `(activities_list, None)` on success or `(None, error_code)` on failure.
+
+### New SQLite table — `daily_summaries`
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS daily_summaries (
+    summary_date  TEXT NOT NULL,    -- 'YYYY-MM-DD'
+    project_path  TEXT NOT NULL,    -- the cwd as stored in sessions
+    prompt_hash   TEXT NOT NULL,    -- sha256 of the filtered+sorted prompts
+    activities    TEXT NOT NULL,    -- JSON array of bullets
+    cost_usd      REAL NOT NULL,    -- denormalized at write-time, used for ranking
+    created_at    REAL NOT NULL,    -- epoch seconds
+    PRIMARY KEY (summary_date, project_path)
+);
+```
+
+Created idempotently in `scanner.init_db()`. Errors are *not* cached — failed cells get retried on the next pass.
+
+### `cli.py` — new phase after scan
+
+After `cmd_scan` completes (and `last_scan_at` is written to `scan_meta`), `cmd_dashboard` runs the eager summarizer pass with a progress callback identical in shape to the scan progress: `Summarizing… N / M cells`. The pass is sequential (one subprocess at a time) — no parallelism — to keep the user's terminal output legible and avoid hammering Claude.
+
+`cmd_scan` itself does **not** trigger summarization (preserves "scan is fast and incremental" semantics). Only `cmd_dashboard` does.
+
+### `dashboard.py` — new HTTP endpoint + new HTML section
+
+- New endpoint: `GET /api/daily-summaries?date=YYYY-MM-DD`
+  - Returns `{"date": "...", "cells": [{"project": "...", "cost": ..., "activities": [...]|null, "error": str|null, "eager": bool}]}`
+  - For uncached cells, calls `summarizer.summarize_cell()` synchronously *within the request* (relies on `ThreadingHTTPServer` so other requests aren't blocked).
+- New HTML `<section>` placed between the existing charts and the Sessions/Models tables.
+- New JS (vanilla, no library): fetches summaries on day-row expansion via native `<details>`/`<summary>` toggle.
+
+---
+
+## Data flow per cell
+
+```
+1. collect_prompts(date, project)
+   – scanner.usage.db gives us all sessions for that (date, project)
+   – walk the corresponding JSONL files, pull type=user records
+   – filter: drop length<5; drop in skiplist {yes,no,ok,exit,y,n,continue,...}
+   – dedupe exact matches
+   – sort, concat with newlines, cap at 4 KB
+
+2. h = sha256(text)
+
+3. existing = SELECT prompt_hash FROM daily_summaries WHERE date=? AND project=?
+   if existing == h:  return cached  (cache hit)
+
+4. activities, err = run_claude(text)
+
+5. if err:                return {"error": err}    (NOT cached; retried later)
+   if activities is None: return {"error": "unknown"}
+   else:
+       INSERT OR REPLACE INTO daily_summaries
+         (summary_date, project_path, prompt_hash, activities, cost_usd, created_at)
+         VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
+       return {"activities": activities, "cached": False}
+```
+
+---
+
+## CLI invocation
+
+```python
+subprocess.run([
+    "claude", "-p", user_prompt_text,
+    "--model", os.environ.get("SUMMARY_MODEL", "haiku"),
+    "--output-format", "json",
+    "--json-schema", SUMMARY_SCHEMA_JSON,
+    "--no-session-persistence",   # critical: don't recurse into our own scanner
+    "--disable-slash-commands",   # don't interpret prompts as skill calls
+    "--system-prompt", SYSTEM_PROMPT,
+], capture_output=True, text=True, timeout=60)
+```
+
+**System prompt (frozen constant):**
+
+> You analyze user prompts from one day's work in one project and infer the main activities. Output 2 to 5 concrete activity bullets describing features, topics, or goals — not file names or implementation minutiae. No fluff, no greetings, no meta-commentary.
+
+**JSON schema for structured output:**
+
+```json
+{"type":"object",
+ "properties":{"activities":{"type":"array","items":{"type":"string"},
+                              "minItems":1,"maxItems":5}},
+ "required":["activities"]}
+```
+
+We do **not** use `--bare`: it forces `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` auth and ignores OAuth, breaking the "use your Claude account" requirement.
+
+We do **not** use `--max-budget-usd`: that flag only works for API-key users. Cost is governed by Enterprise quota plus our own input/output caps.
+
+---
+
+## Eager-set selection (the "interesting cells" rule)
+
+Computed once per dashboard launch, after the scan:
+
+```python
+cells = [(date, project, cost) for ... in usage.db]   # all cells with cost > 0
+threshold = percentile([c.cost for c in cells], 80)
+eager = sorted([c for c in cells if c.cost >= threshold],
+               key=lambda c: -c.cost)[:SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS]
+```
+
+Defaults:
+- Percentile: **80** (top 20%)
+- Hard cap: `SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS=50` (overridable via env var)
+- Model: `SUMMARY_MODEL=haiku` (overridable via env var)
+
+The cap protects against unbounded first-init runs for users with years of history. Top-20% of 1000 cells would be 200 — too many. The cap caps wall-time at roughly `50 × 5s = ~4 min`.
+
+---
+
+## UI layout
+
+A new section between the charts and the Sessions table:
+
+```
+─── Daily Activities ────────────────────────────────────────────────
+▶ 2026-04-26   3 projects   $4.21
+▼ 2026-04-25   2 projects   $9.18
+    claude-costs-dashboard                               ★  $8.86
+      • Implemented Custom date range picker with URL persistence
+      • Fixed timezone off-by-one in default range bounds
+      • Added stale-data banner triggered when last scan ≥ 24h
+    debatecoach                                             $0.32
+      • Added .settings file to enable Superpowers plugin
+      • Configured initial project workspace
+▶ 2026-04-24   1 project   $0.18
+─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
+```
+
+- Day rows: native `<details>`/`<summary>`; collapsed by default.
+- Star (★) marks eager-set cells; absence indicates lazy.
+- Honors the existing range filter (This Week / 7d / 30d / Custom / etc.) — same selection drives this section.
+- Days with zero activity are hidden entirely.
+
+### Row state matrix
+
+| State | Renders as |
+|---|---|
+| Cached | Bullets render immediately; ★ if eager |
+| Lazy + day collapsed | No fetch, nothing rendered |
+| Lazy + day expanded for the first time | Inline spinner: `Summarizing… (≈3s)` → bullets replace it |
+| Errored | `Summary unavailable: <error_code>` + small "Retry" link that re-issues the fetch |
+| `claude` not installed | Section shows banner above the day list: *"Daily Activities requires the `claude` CLI on PATH."* |
+
+### Lazy fetch flow
+
+When a day is expanded, the JS sends one `GET /api/daily-summaries?date=YYYY-MM-DD` request.
+- The server returns cached cells + triggers summarization for any uncached cells of that date sequentially within the same request.
+- The browser shows one spinner per day until the response lands (~3–15 s for a busy day).
+- "Block on day" was preferred over "stream per cell" for cleaner perceived UX (one spinner, all bullets appear together).
+
+No frontend libraries; native `<details>` for collapse, vanilla JS for fetch + render.
+
+---
+
+## Error handling
+
+| Layer | Failure | Behavior |
+|---|---|---|
+| `summarizer.run_claude()` | subprocess error / timeout / parse error | Returns `(None, error_code)`; never raises |
+| Eager pass during startup | Any cell errors out | Print `Skipped: <date> <project> — <error>` to stderr; continue; dashboard still starts |
+| `/api/daily-summaries` | summarizer returns error | JSON response includes per-cell error; UI renders "Summary unavailable" with retry |
+| `claude` not on PATH | First call returns `FileNotFoundError` mapped to `claude_not_installed` | Eager pass aborts cleanly with one stderr message; section banner explains; everything else works |
+| 60s timeout | `subprocess.TimeoutExpired` | error_code `timeout`; not cached; auto-retry next run |
+| Non-zero exit | Captured stderr first line | error_code `cli_error: <stderr>`; not cached |
+| Invalid JSON output | `json.JSONDecodeError` | error_code `parse_error`; not cached (rare with `--json-schema`) |
+
+---
+
+## Cost protection
+
+Multiple bounds stack:
+- `SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS=50` cap on eager set
+- 4 KB input cap per call
+- `maxItems: 5` output cap via JSON schema
+- Lazy fetch only on user expansion (no scroll-triggered prefetch)
+- Cache hit on prompt-hash match → no call
+
+Worst-case first init: 50 × ~1.5 KB input × ~150 output tokens at Haiku rates ≈ **$0.08**. Day-by-day refresh: typically 0–2 cells per scan ≈ pennies.
+
+---
+
+## Configuration (env vars)
+
+| Var | Default | Effect |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SUMMARY_MODEL` | `haiku` | Claude model alias passed to `claude --model` |
+| `SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS` | `50` | Hard cap on eager-set size |
+
+Plus existing `HOST`, `PORT`, `--projects-dir` — unchanged.
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+| Layer | What's tested | How |
+|---|---|---|
+| `summarizer.collect_prompts()` | filtering, dedup, capping, hashing | Unit tests with hand-crafted JSONL fixtures |
+| `summarizer.run_claude()` | subprocess flag construction, error mapping | Mock `subprocess.run`; assert on argv; cover timeout / non-zero / parse-error / FileNotFoundError paths |
+| `summarizer.rank_cells_by_cost()` | percentile + cap logic | Unit tests with synthetic cost lists |
+| `init_db` | new `daily_summaries` table created idempotently | Same pattern as the existing `scan_meta` test |
+| `/api/daily-summaries` | endpoint returns cached + triggers lazy correctly | HTTP test against `ThreadingHTTPServer` with mocked summarizer |
+| UI | expand/collapse, bullet render, error states | Manual checklist (no JS test harness in this repo, matches existing convention) |
+
+---
+
+## Out of scope (deferred)
+
+- Multi-day summary aggregation ("what did I work on this week?")
+- Exporting summaries to CSV/markdown
+- Cross-project intent detection ("this all relates to GIS work")
+- LLM-graded session ratings or quality scores
+- Scheduling (auto-rescan + auto-resummarize on a cron)
+- Parallel `claude` subprocesses (sequential is intentional for v1)
+
+---
+
+## Manual test plan (for the eventual implementation)
+
+1. Fresh `~/.claude/usage.db` → run `python3 cli.py dashboard` → terminal shows `Scanning…` then `Summarizing…` then browser opens.
+2. Daily Activities section visible below charts.
+3. Click an eager (★) day — bullets render immediately, no spinner.
+4. Click a non-eager day — spinner appears for ~3-15s, then bullets render.
+5. Re-open browser — previously lazy-loaded day is instant (cached).
+6. Touch a JSONL file with new user prompts on an eager day → re-run dashboard → that one cell re-summarizes (others skipped).
+7. Rename `claude` (or `mv` it off PATH) → re-run dashboard → eager pass aborts with stderr message; dashboard still starts; Daily Activities banner shows "claude not installed".
+8. Range filter still drives the section (switch to "Custom: 2026-04-01 → 2026-04-15"; only days in that window appear).

+# Daily Activity Summaries — Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Add a "Daily Activities" view that uses the local `claude` CLI to summarize each day's user prompts per project as 2–5 bulleted activities, cached in SQLite.
+
+**Architecture:** New `summarizer.py` module wraps a `claude -p` subprocess call. Eager pass at `cli.py dashboard` startup summarizes the top-20% (day, project) cells by cost (capped at 50). Lazy pass on `/api/daily-summaries` for cells the user expands. Cache invalidated by sha256 hash of input prompts.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Python 3.8 stdlib (sqlite3, hashlib, subprocess, http.server), embedded vanilla JavaScript, the existing `claude` CLI on PATH. No new pip dependencies.
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-27-daily-activity-summaries-design.md`
+
+---
+
+## File Structure
+
+| File | What changes |
+|------|--------------|
+| `scanner.py` | Add `daily_summaries` table to `init_db()` |
+| `summarizer.py` | **New module** — `prompt_hash`, `collect_prompts`, `rank_cells_by_cost`, `run_claude`, `summarize_cell` |
+| `cli.py` | `cmd_dashboard` runs eager summarizer pass after the scan with TTY progress |
+| `dashboard.py` | New `/api/daily-summaries` endpoint + new HTML section + new JS |
+| `tests/test_scanner.py` | New test for `daily_summaries` table |
+| `tests/test_summarizer.py` | **New file** — unit tests for every public function in `summarizer.py` |
+| `tests/test_cli.py` | New test for eager pass progress callback in `cmd_dashboard` |
+| `tests/test_dashboard.py` | New tests for `/api/daily-summaries` endpoint |
+| `CHANGELOG.md` | New section for v0.3.0-launchmetrics.1 |
+
+Each task lands as one commit. Order ensures every commit leaves the test suite green.
+
+---
+
+## Task 1: scanner.py — `daily_summaries` table
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `scanner.py` (`init_db` function)
+- Test: `tests/test_scanner.py`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+Add to `tests/test_scanner.py`:
+
+```python
+def test_init_db_creates_daily_summaries_table(tmp_path):
+    db_path = tmp_path / "test.db"
+    conn = scanner.init_db(db_path)
+    cols = {row[1] for row in conn.execute("PRAGMA table_info(daily_summaries)")}
+    assert cols == {
+        "summary_date", "project_path", "prompt_hash",
+        "activities", "cost_usd", "created_at",
+    }
+    conn.close()
+
+
+def test_init_db_daily_summaries_idempotent(tmp_path):
+    db_path = tmp_path / "test.db"
+    scanner.init_db(db_path).close()
+    conn = scanner.init_db(db_path)  # second call must not raise
+    conn.execute("SELECT 1 FROM daily_summaries").fetchall()
+    conn.close()
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `python3 -m pytest tests/test_scanner.py::test_init_db_creates_daily_summaries_table -v`
+Expected: FAIL with `sqlite3.OperationalError: no such table: daily_summaries`
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the table to `init_db`**
+
+In `scanner.py`, find the multi-statement `executescript` call inside `init_db()` (around line 44–86, the block that contains `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS scan_meta`). Add this CREATE TABLE statement at the end of that script (just before the closing `"""`):
+
+```sql
+        CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS daily_summaries (
+            summary_date  TEXT NOT NULL,
+            project_path  TEXT NOT NULL,
+            prompt_hash   TEXT NOT NULL,
+            activities    TEXT NOT NULL,
+            cost_usd      REAL NOT NULL,
+            created_at    REAL NOT NULL,
+            PRIMARY KEY (summary_date, project_path)
+        );
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run test to verify it passes**
+
+Run: `python3 -m pytest tests/test_scanner.py -k daily_summaries -v`
+Expected: 2 passed.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Run full suite to confirm no regressions**
+
+Run: `python3 -m pytest tests/ -q`
+Expected: all 103 prior tests still pass + 2 new tests = 105 passed.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add scanner.py tests/test_scanner.py
+git commit -m "feat(scanner): add daily_summaries table for activity summaries"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Task 2: summarizer.py — `prompt_hash` function
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `summarizer.py`
+- Test: `tests/test_summarizer.py`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+Create `tests/test_summarizer.py` with:
+
+```python
+import summarizer
+
+
+def test_prompt_hash_is_deterministic():
+    assert summarizer.prompt_hash("hello") == summarizer.prompt_hash("hello")
+
+
+def test_prompt_hash_differs_on_change():
+    assert summarizer.prompt_hash("hello") != summarizer.prompt_hash("hello!")
+
+
+def test_prompt_hash_returns_hex_string():
+    h = summarizer.prompt_hash("hello")
+    assert isinstance(h, str)
+    assert len(h) == 64  # sha256 hex digest length
+    int(h, 16)  # valid hex
+
+
+def test_prompt_hash_handles_unicode():
+    summarizer.prompt_hash("hola — què tal?")  # must not raise
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `python3 -m pytest tests/test_summarizer.py -v`
+Expected: FAIL with `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'summarizer'`
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Create the module skeleton + `prompt_hash`**
+
+Create `summarizer.py`:
+
+```python
+"""

+
+## Task 9: dashboard.py — UI section + JS
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `dashboard.py` (HTML_TEMPLATE)
+
+This task has no Python test (no JS test harness in this repo, matches existing convention). It ends with manual testing.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add CSS for the new section**
+
+In `dashboard.py`, find the `<style>` block in `HTML_TEMPLATE` and append these rules just before the closing `</style>`:
+
+```css
+#daily-activities { margin-top: 32px; }
+#daily-activities h2 { margin-bottom: 12px; }
+#daily-activities .day-row { border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 4px; margin-bottom: 8px; padding: 0; background: #fff; }
+#daily-activities .day-row summary { padding: 10px 14px; cursor: pointer; font-weight: 500; display: flex; gap: 12px; align-items: center; }
+#daily-activities .day-row summary::-webkit-details-marker { display: none; }
+#daily-activities .day-row summary::before { content: "▶"; font-size: 0.7em; color: #888; transition: transform 0.15s; }
+#daily-activities .day-row[open] summary::before { transform: rotate(90deg); }
+#daily-activities .day-meta { color: #888; font-weight: normal; font-size: 0.9em; }
+#daily-activities .day-cost { margin-left: auto; font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums; }
+#daily-activities .project-block { padding: 8px 14px 8px 32px; border-top: 1px solid #f0f0f0; }
+#daily-activities .project-name { font-weight: 500; display: flex; align-items: center; gap: 6px; }
+#daily-activities .project-cost { color: #888; font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums; margin-left: auto; }
+#daily-activities .star { color: #f5a623; }
+#daily-activities ul.activities { margin: 6px 0 0 0; padding-left: 20px; }
+#daily-activities ul.activities li { margin: 2px 0; }
+#daily-activities .spinner { color: #888; font-style: italic; padding: 4px 0; }
+#daily-activities .err { color: #c0392b; padding: 4px 0; }
+#daily-activities .err button { margin-left: 8px; font-size: 0.85em; }
+#daily-activities .banner { padding: 10px 14px; background: #fff3cd; border: 1px solid #ffe599; border-radius: 4px; margin-bottom: 12px; }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Add the HTML section**
+
+In `dashboard.py`, find the line containing `<div class="section-header"><div class="section-title">Recent Sessions</div>` (around line 332). Insert this block immediately *before* the surrounding wrapper of that section header (the parent `<section>` or `<div class="card">` — verify by reading 5 lines above line 332):
+
+```html
+<section id="daily-activities">
+  <h2>Daily Activities</h2>
+  <div id="daily-banner" class="banner" style="display:none"></div>
+  <div id="daily-list">
+    <p class="spinner">Loading…</p>
+  </div>
+</section>
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add the JS to render the section**
+
+In `dashboard.py`, inside the existing `<script>` block in `HTML_TEMPLATE`, append at the end (before the closing `</script>`):
+
+```javascript
+const dailyState = { fetchedDates: new Set(), inFlight: new Map() };
+
+function renderDailyList(data) {
+  const list = document.getElementById('daily-list');
+  if (!data.days.length) {
+    list.innerHTML = '<p class="spinner">No activity in the selected range.</p>';
+    return;
+  }
+  list.innerHTML = data.days.map(day => `

+      <summary>
+        <span>${day.date}</span>
+        <span class="day-meta">${day.project_count} project${day.project_count === 1 ? '' : 's'}</span>
+        <span class="day-cost">$${day.cost.toFixed(2)}</span>

+  `).join('');
+  list.querySelectorAll('details.day-row').forEach(d => {
+    d.addEventListener('toggle', () => {
+      if (d.open) loadDayActivities(d);
+    });

+
+async function loadDayActivities(detailsEl) {

+  dailyState.inFlight.set(date, true);
+  const body = detailsEl.querySelector('.day-body');
+  body.innerHTML = '<p class="spinner">Summarizing…</p>';
+  try {
+    const resp = await fetch(`/api/daily-summaries?date=${encodeURIComponent(date)}`);
+    const data = await resp.json();
+    // Stamp the date onto each cell so renderProjectBlock can wire Retry buttons.
+    data.cells.forEach(c => { c.__date = date; });
+    body.innerHTML = data.cells.map(c => renderProjectBlock(c)).join('');
+    dailyState.fetchedDates.add(date);
+  } catch (e) {
+    body.innerHTML = `<p class="err">Failed to load: ${e.message}</p>`;
+  } finally {
+    dailyState.inFlight.delete(date);
+  }
+}
+
+function renderProjectBlock(cell) {
+  const star = cell.eager ? '<span class="star" title="Pre-summarized">★</span>' : '';

+  }
+  if (cell.error) {
+    const date = cell.__date || '';
+    return `<div class="project-block">

+}
+
+function escapeHtml(s) {
+  return String(s).replace(/[&<>"']/g, c => ({
+    '&': '&amp;', '<': '&lt;', '>': '&gt;', '"': '&quot;', "'": '&#39;',
+  }[c]));
+}
+
+function retryDay(date) {
+  dailyState.fetchedDates.delete(date);
+  const detailsEl = document.querySelector(
+    `#daily-list details.day-row[data-date="${date}"]`,
+  );
+  if (detailsEl && detailsEl.open) loadDayActivities(detailsEl);
+}
+
+function buildDailyDataFromCharts(rangeData) {
+  // Group session rows by day, using the same range filter as the rest.
+  // Session objects don't carry a cost field — compute it via calcCost(),
+  // which is the same helper applyFilter() already uses.
+  const dayMap = new Map();
+  for (const s of rangeData.sessions || []) {
+    const d = s.last_date;
+    if (!d) continue;
+    if (!dayMap.has(d)) dayMap.set(d, { date: d, projects: new Set(), cost: 0 });
+    const day = dayMap.get(d);
+    day.projects.add(s.project);
+    day.cost += calcCost(s.model, s.input, s.output, s.cache_read, s.cache_creation);
+  }
+  const days = Array.from(dayMap.values())
+    .map(d => ({ date: d.date, project_count: d.projects.size, cost: d.cost }))
+    .sort((a, b) => b.date.localeCompare(a.date));
+  return { days };
+}
+
+// Hook into the existing render pipeline. Find the render() / loadData()
+// function in this file and call renderDailyList(buildDailyDataFromCharts(filteredData))
+// right after the existing chart updates.
+```
+
+**Important integration step:** the render function is `applyFilter()` (around line 787–862 in `dashboard.py`). Its tail block at line ~858–861 looks like:
+
+```javascript
+renderSessionsTable(lastFilteredSessions.slice(0, 20));
+renderModelCostTable(byModel);
+renderProjectCostTable(lastByProject.slice(0, 20));
+renderProjectBranchCostTable(lastByProjectBranch.slice(0, 20));
+```
+
+Append immediately after that last call (still inside `applyFilter()`):
+
+```javascript
+renderDailyList(buildDailyDataFromCharts({ sessions: lastFilteredSessions }));
+```
+
+`lastFilteredSessions` is the post-range-filter session list this codebase already uses (declared near line 412). `buildDailyDataFromCharts` reads `rangeData.sessions` — wrap it in an object as shown.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Manual smoke test**
+
+Run: `python3 cli.py dashboard`
+
+Verify in this order:
+1. Terminal shows `Scanning…` then `Summarizing… N / M cells` progress bar.
+2. After progress ends, terminal shows `N summarized, M cached, 0 errors`.
+3. Browser opens to `http://localhost:8080`.
+4. Scroll past the existing charts. The "Daily Activities" section is visible.
+5. Day rows are listed with the date, project count, and total cost. Most recent day on top.
+6. Click a day row — it expands; spinner appears briefly; bullets render.
+7. Eager-set cells are marked with ★. Lazy ones aren't.
+8. Click a different day → loads independently. Re-clicking an already-expanded day shows cached data instantly (no fetch).
+9. Switch range filter to "7d" — only the last 7 days appear in the section.
+
+If any of those fail, fix the JS and re-load the page (no commit yet).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Manual `claude` not installed test**
+
+Temporarily rename `claude` to confirm graceful degradation:
+
+```bash
+which claude   # note the path, e.g. /opt/homebrew/bin/claude
+sudo mv /opt/homebrew/bin/claude /opt/homebrew/bin/claude.bak
+python3 cli.py dashboard
+```
+
+Verify:
+1. Terminal eager pass prints `0 summarized, 0 cached, N errors` (or skips, depending on existing cached state).
+2. Daily Activities section still loads, but each project block shows `Daily Activities requires the claude CLI on PATH`.
+3. Other parts of the dashboard (charts, sessions table) work normally.
+
+Then restore: `sudo mv /opt/homebrew/bin/claude.bak /opt/homebrew/bin/claude`
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add dashboard.py
+git commit -m "feat(dashboard): add Daily Activities section with lazy expand"
+```
+

+
+## Task 10: CHANGELOG + tag release
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `CHANGELOG.md`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Run the full test suite**
+
+Run: `python3 -m pytest tests/ -v`
+Expected: all tests pass.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Add CHANGELOG entry**
+
+In `CHANGELOG.md`, add a new section at the top:
+
+```markdown
+## 2026-04-27
+
+- Add Daily Activities view: per-day, per-project bulleted activity summaries inferred by Haiku via the local `claude` CLI
+- Eager pass at dashboard startup summarizes top-20% (day, project) cells by cost (capped at 50)
+- Lazy pass on `/api/daily-summaries?date=…` summarizes other days on demand when expanded
+- Cache invalidated by sha256 hash of the day's user prompts
+- New env vars: `SUMMARY_MODEL` (default: `haiku`), `SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS` (default: `50`)
+- New `daily_summaries` table (auto-created via `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`)
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Commit and tag**
+
+```bash
+git add CHANGELOG.md
+git commit -m "docs: update CHANGELOG for v0.3.0-launchmetrics.1"
+git tag -a v0.3.0-launchmetrics.1 -m "Daily Activities: AI-inferred daily activity summaries"
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Push branch and tag (with user confirmation)**
+
+Push the branch and tag to origin (after user confirms — do not push without explicit go-ahead):
+
+```bash
+git push -u origin feature/daily-activity-summaries
+git push origin v0.3.0-launchmetrics.1
+```
+
+Then open a PR against `main` (after the v0.2.0 PR has merged, or against the v0.2.0 branch if it hasn't).
+

+
+## Notes for the engineer
+
+- **TDD discipline:** every code-changing task starts with a failing test. Run the test, see it fail, then implement, then see it pass. Do not skip the "see it fail" step.
+- **One commit per task:** each task ends with a commit. If you discover a problem mid-task, fix it before committing.
+- **Backwards compatibility:** existing DBs (without `daily_summaries`) get the new table on next scan via `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`. No migration script needed.
+- **No new dependencies:** all changes within Python stdlib + the existing `claude` CLI on PATH. Do not add `requests`, `httpx`, or any other package.
+- **Existing test patterns to reuse:**
+  - `monkeypatch.setattr(scanner, "DB_PATH", db_path)` for DB redirection
+  - `tests/test_dashboard.py` already has the `ThreadingHTTPServer`-in-a-thread pattern (line ~132) — copy it for the endpoint test in Task 8 if needed
+  - Use `pytest.approx` for float comparisons
+- **Subprocess mocking:** Task 5 patches `subprocess.run` directly. Make sure no test calls `claude` for real (it would burn quota and slow CI).
+- **`cli.py` import in `summarizer.py`:** the import `from cli import calc_cost` happens *inside* `rank_cells_by_cost` (function-scoped) to keep `summarizer.py` importable even if `cli.py` ever changes shape.
+- **Sequential summarization:** the eager pass runs cells one at a time (no `concurrent.futures`). This is intentional — keeps the terminal output clean and avoids hammering the user's Claude quota with parallel calls.
+- **`claude -p` output shape:** confirmed via `--output-format json` — returns `{"result": "<inner JSON string>"}` where the inner string is the LLM's structured output. Both the outer wrapper and the inner JSON need to be parsed (see Task 5 implementation).

Subject: [PATCH 10/26] chore(summarizer): clean up test imports and fix
 timestamp format

Move `import time` to the top of the file with other module-level
imports, remove the two inline `import scanner, time` duplicates, and
fix the f-string in `_seed_jsonl_for_cell` to use `{i:02d}` so minute
values are always two digits (prevents malformed timestamps for i>=10).

Subject: [PATCH 12/26] chore(cli): strengthen cmd_dashboard tests + clarify
 magic number

- Stub threading.Thread in both cmd_dashboard tests so the browser-open
  daemon thread never actually runs during test execution
- Assert projects_dirs is passed correctly to run_eager_pass
- Add docstring + assert progress format (1 / 3, no \\r) to the
  stderr-progress test
- Add comment explaining the done % 5 == 0 magic number in cli.py

 # Changelog
 
+## 2026-04-27
+
+- Add Daily Activities view: per-day, per-project bulleted activity summaries inferred by Haiku via the local `claude` CLI
+- Eager pass at dashboard startup summarizes top-20% (day, project) cells by cost (capped at 50)
+- Lazy pass on `/api/daily-summaries?date=…` summarizes other days on demand when expanded
+- Cache invalidated by sha256 hash of the day's user prompts
+- New env vars: `SUMMARY_MODEL` (default: `haiku`), `SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS` (default: `50`)
+- New `daily_summaries` table (auto-created via `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`)
+
 ## 2026-04-26
 
 - Add "Setup for non-technical users (macOS)" section to README

Subject: [PATCH 18/26] fix(dashboard): guard daily_summaries query for
 pre-migration DBs

Mirrors the existing scan_meta _table_exists guard pattern. Protects
the rare case where the dashboard is started against a usage.db that
predates v0.3.0 without first running a scan.

Subject: [PATCH 19/26] fix(summarizer): encode cwd dots and spaces as dashes

Claude Code's per-project JSONL directories under ~/.claude/projects/
encode every "/", "." and whitespace in the cwd as "-". Our
_encoded_dirname only replaced "/", so for any cwd containing dots
(e.g. "/Users/pau.montero/...") or spaces (e.g. ".../AIpril
retrospectives"), collect_prompts walked into a non-existent dir and
returned no prompts. The dashboard then surfaced "Summary unavailable:
no_prompts" for every cell.

Add a regression test for the encoding and an end-to-end test that
seeds a dotted-cwd dir and verifies collect_prompts finds it.

Subject: [PATCH 20/26] fix(summarizer): filter slash-command and system noise
 from prompts

User-type JSONL records contain a lot of non-prompt text that Claude
Code captures from the input stream: slash-command wrappers
(<command-name>...), bash invocations and stdout/stderr blocks,
local-command artefacts, task-notifications and system-reminders that
land in user records, the [Request interrupted by user] marker, and
the auto-context-continuation prelude. Inferring activities from this
material wastes tokens and produces nonsense.

Add a NOISE_PREFIXES tuple and skip any user prompt whose stripped
text starts with one of those tags. Real prose still falls through.

Verified against the live JSONL: collected prompts went from
4 KB of mixed garbage to 1.7 KB of legitimate user messages
(real questions, design discussion, task hand-offs).

Subject: [PATCH 21/26] fix(dashboard): stream daily summaries per-cell instead
 of blocking
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Expanding a day was hanging on a single "Summarizing…" spinner for
2-5 minutes because /api/daily-summaries ran summarize_cell
synchronously for every uncached (date, cwd) before sending the
response — sequential 30-60 s claude -p calls add up fast.

Split the API: /api/daily-summaries now returns the cell list
instantly with pending=true on uncached cells. The new
/api/cell-summary?date=&cwd= endpoint runs summarize_cell for one
cell. The frontend fires these in parallel and replaces each pending
block as its summary arrives, so summaries stream in instead of all
or nothing.

Side benefit: the user sees structure (which projects worked that
day) immediately, even before any summary completes.

Subject: [PATCH 22/26] fix(summarizer): drop --json-schema, parse JSON from
 result string

The Claude Code CLI returns an empty "result" field when invoked with
--json-schema (verified against the live CLI: result="", stop_reason
="end_turn", output_tokens=1317), which made every lazy summary fail
with parse_error.

Switch to instructing JSON output via the system prompt and parse the
result string ourselves, stripping optional ``` fences and falling
back to the first balanced {...} span. Also wrap the collected prompts
in a <prompts> block so Haiku treats them as data instead of
answering the last user message.

New error code "empty_result" to distinguish a CLI that returned no
content from a malformed payload.

Verified end-to-end: a 2.3 KB real prompt set now yields four
coherent activity bullets in ~25 s.

Subject: [PATCH 23/26] fix: preserve open day rows during auto-refresh

renderDailyList rebuilt the entire <details> list on every 30 s
auto-refresh, which collapsed any expanded day and abandoned the
in-flight /api/cell-summary requests for its cells. The visible
result was "day closes itself after a while" plus stale "No
activities inferred" labels for cells whose summarization never
got to land.

Make the renderer idempotent: update <summary> metadata on
existing rows in place, only build fresh DOM for genuinely new
dates, and remove rows for dates that fell out of the range.

Subject: [PATCH 24/26] fix: align day-row cost with cell totals (turn-based)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The daily list header used session.last_date attribution, which
credits an entire session to whatever day it ended on. Cells in
the expanded view use per-turn timestamps. For long-running
sessions that span multiple days, this made the day header
much higher than the sum of cells underneath — the user saw
\$120.92 in the header against \$26.32 of cells.

Switch the header cost to use the existing turn-grouped
daily_by_model data so it matches the per-cell sum exactly.
Project count keeps using sessions (it's a per-day count of
distinct projects, not a cost figure).

Subject: [PATCH 25/26] refactor: drop eager pre-summarization pass
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Per user feedback: "if you are able to click a date and it works,
this is enough." The eager pass added a 30-60 s blocking step at
dashboard startup that pre-summarized the top-20% cost cells, then
duplicated work the lazy on-click endpoint already does. Worse, on
slower days users sat staring at "Generating activity summaries…"
before the dashboard even came up.

Lazy summarization is fast enough on its own: clicking a day fans
out one /api/cell-summary request per project in parallel and the
sha256 cache makes re-clicks instant. Drop the eager machinery,
the SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS env var, the rank_cells_by_cost ranking, and
the ★ "pre-summarized" UI marker that was only meaningful when
both passes coexisted.

 ## 2026-04-27
 
 - Add Daily Activities view: per-day, per-project bulleted activity summaries inferred by Haiku via the local `claude` CLI
-- Eager pass at dashboard startup summarizes top-20% (day, project) cells by cost (capped at 50)
-- Lazy pass on `/api/daily-summaries?date=…` summarizes other days on demand when expanded
+- Summaries are inferred lazily on demand: clicking a day fans out one `/api/cell-summary` request per project so they stream in parallel
 - Cache invalidated by sha256 hash of the day's user prompts
-- New env vars: `SUMMARY_MODEL` (default: `haiku`), `SUMMARY_MAX_CELLS` (default: `50`)
+- Day-row cost matches the sum of per-cell costs (turn-based attribution; sessions that span multiple days no longer pile onto their last day)
+- New env var: `SUMMARY_MODEL` (default: `haiku`)
 - New `daily_summaries` table (auto-created via `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`)

Subject: [PATCH 26/26] feat: paginate Recent Sessions + click-to-expand
 session activities
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Recent Sessions used to show only the top 20 rows of the filtered
list with no way to drill in. Two changes here:

1. Pagination — render the full filtered list 50 rows per page with
   a prev/next pager. Page resets to 1 whenever the filter, sort, or
   auto-refresh changes the underlying list.

2. Click-to-expand — clicking a row inserts a detail row underneath
   showing 2-5 activity bullets summarizing what the user actually
   worked on in that session. Bullets come from the local claude CLI
   (Haiku via SUMMARY_MODEL) running over the session's user prompts,
   cached in a new session_summaries table keyed by session_id.

Reuses summarizer.py's prompt extraction, noise filter, run_claude
subprocess and prompt_hash cache logic — only the persistence shape
changes (one row per session_id instead of per (date, cwd)). Locates
the JSONL via cwd_hint when known, falls back to globbing every
project dir for <session_id>.jsonl.

Path-traversal guard on /api/session-summary?id= rejects ids
containing '/', '..' or whitespace before the value reaches the
filesystem.

 - Summaries are inferred lazily on demand: clicking a day fans out one `/api/cell-summary` request per project so they stream in parallel
