maestro:visual
Render maestro state or debug data as self-contained interactive HTML files. All visualizations support dark/light mode, open in any browser, and require no build step.
MCP Tools
maestro visual -- Maestro State Visualizations
Renders data gathered from maestro services. Requires an active feature.
maestro visual --type plan-graph --feature my-feature --json
maestro visual --type status-dashboard --json # uses active feature
| Type | What it shows |
|---|---|
plan-graph |
Mermaid flowchart of task dependencies. Node shapes encode status (pending/claimed/done/blocked/review/revision). |
status-dashboard |
KPI cards (task counts per status), progress bar, runnable/blocked lists, memory + doctrine stats. |
memory-map |
Grid of memory cards color-coded by category, sized by priority. Mermaid pie chart for category distribution. |
execution-timeline |
Timeline of completed tasks with execution insights. Knowledge flow graph. Doctrine effectiveness table. |
doctrine-network |
Mermaid graph of doctrine items connected by shared tags. Effectiveness metrics table. |
maestro debug-visual -- Debug Visualizations
Renders agent-provided structured data. No feature context needed.
maestro debug-visual --type component-tree --title "React Component Hierarchy" --data '{ "nodes": [...] }' --json
| Type | What it shows |
|---|---|
component-tree |
Recursive tree with expand/collapse. Error boundaries highlighted. Props viewable. |
state-flow |
Timeline of state mutations with inline JSON diff. Filterable by action. |
error-cascade |
Error tree with caught/uncaught distinction. Collapsible stack traces. |
network-waterfall |
Chrome DevTools-style waterfall of HTTP requests. Color-coded by status. |
dom-diff |
Side-by-side panels with line-by-line diff highlighting. |
console-timeline |
Log entries with severity coloring. Level filter controls. |
CLI Commands
maestro visual plan-graph --feature my-feature
maestro visual status-dashboard
maestro debug-visual component-tree --data '{"nodes":[...]}'
maestro debug-visual network-waterfall --data /path/to/data.json --no-open
When to Use Which Type
- Understanding the plan:
plan-graphshows task dependencies at a glance - Progress check:
status-dashboardgives a quick KPI overview - Knowledge audit:
memory-mapshows what the project remembers - Post-mortem:
execution-timelinetraces what happened across tasks - Process improvement:
doctrine-networkshows which rules are effective - Debugging UI:
component-tree+error-cascadefor React/Vue issues - Debugging state:
state-flowfor tracking down mutation bugs - Debugging network:
network-waterfallfor API timing issues - Visual regression:
dom-difffor expected vs actual markup - Log analysis:
console-timelinefor filtering through log noise
Output
All files are written to ~/.maestro/visuals/ with descriptive filenames. Files auto-rotate at 100 (oldest are pruned). Browser opens automatically unless --no-open or autoOpen: false.
CSS Customization
The visual system uses CSS custom properties for theming. For advanced customization, load the visual-explainer skill which documents the full CSS pattern library (section cards, grid layouts, animations, depth tiers).
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
maestro-skill-author
Create, update, or debug maestro built-in skills. Covers SKILL.md frontmatter, reference directory structure, step-file architecture, build-time embedding, naming conventions, alias management, and registry validation. Use when creating a new maestro built-in skill, modifying an existing SKILL.md, adding reference files, debugging skill loading failures, updating the skills registry, or working on the skills full port. Also use when frontmatter validation fails, skills don't appear in skill-list, or reference files fail to load.
maestro:brainstorming
Use before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation.
mcp-builder
Guide for creating high-quality MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that enable LLMs to interact with external services through well-designed tools. Use when building MCP servers to integrate external APIs or services, whether in Python (FastMCP) or Node/TypeScript (MCP SDK).
maestro:plan-review-loop
Deep-review any plan (maestro, Codex, Claude Code plan mode, or plain markdown) using iterative subagent review loops with BMAD-inspired adversarial edge-case discovery. Spawns reviewer subagents that find issues using pre-mortem, inversion, and red-team techniques, auto-fixes them with structured fix strategies, and re-reviews until the plan passes with zero actionable issues. Use when the user says 'review the plan', 'deep review', 'check the plan thoroughly', 'review loop', 'validate before approving', or wants rigorous plan validation before execution. Also use proactively before plan-approve when the plan is complex or high-risk.
maestro:research
Structured research workflow for maestro features. Guides tool selection across three tiers (codebase exploration, Context7 for library docs, NotebookLM for deep analysis), defines research patterns, finding organization via memory_write, and completion criteria. Use during the research pipeline stage after feature_create and before plan_write. Also use when investigating a problem space, comparing technical approaches, gathering context on unfamiliar code, or needing to understand external library APIs before making architectural decisions.
cli-for-agents
Designs or reviews CLIs so coding agents can run them reliably: non-interactive flags, layered --help with examples, stdin/pipelines, fast actionable errors, idempotency, dry-run, and predictable structure. Use when building a CLI, adding commands, writing --help, or when the user mentions agents, terminals, or automation-friendly CLIs.
