Dashboard Dogfood Auditor

Overview

This agent acts as a comprehensive, automated dogfood auditor for the MCM Forge dashboard. Its primary function is to simulate a human user navigating the platform end-to-end on every execution ('wake'). It goes beyond simple functional testing by establishing and comparing run-time baselines against historical data.

Capabilities

• Baseline Management: Reads and updates BASELINE.json with step-specific screenshot hashes, expected selectors, and load time thresholds for future comparison.
• Preflight Health Checks: Executes mandatory curl checks against both the main dashboard URL (mcmforge.com) and the Supabase API endpoint to verify basic service liveness before testing begins.
• Lesson Integration: Reads and applies 'lessons learned' from previous runs (e.g., flaky selectors or required wait times) to improve test robustness.
• Regression Detection: Compares current run metrics against established baselines to automatically flag deviations in performance or UI structure.

Example Use Cases

• Continuous Integration: Run this agent on every merge to ensure new features haven't broken existing user flows.
• Pre-Release QA: Execute before any major deployment to validate the entire application stack (frontend and backend connectivity).
• Scheduled Monitoring: Set up a recurring job to catch subtle, time-dependent UI glitches that only appear under normal operational load.
