orca-runs
The run view is the operator's terminal screen for runs of implement-spec-in-workflow on the session runner (ADR-0012, ADR-0017). This skill serves Orca-hosted runs: those whose session host is Orca. A crew-hosted run — crew being the default session host — is not this skill's: the operator lists those with crew ls and opens one in the run console with crew view; point them there and stop. On Orca the runner shows it attached, in its own tab, on its own run. This skill opens it standalone: every run in the run registry (~/.claude/orca-runs.jsonl, or $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/orca-runs.jsonl when that is set), finished, paused or dead, with no runner needed.
The view is code of the crew package, not of this skill: one copy, beside the runner that also starts it, reached through the crew bin.
Requires Node, crew installed (npm install -g @javrasya/crew, or from a checkout of javrasya/crew npm install -g <crew checkout>), and a session inside an Orca terminal (TERM_PROGRAM is Orca). On its first start the view installs its one dependency, terminal-kit, beside itself with npm ci, which needs npm and the network once.
Steps
-
Open it in a new Orca tab:
orca terminal create --title "Orca runs" --command "crew view --standalone" --focus --jsonIf the command fails, or
result.terminal.surfaceis notvisible, tell the operator the view has no visible tab, and stop. Outside Orca, say the view needs an Orca terminal, and stop. -
Hand it over. The operator works the view themselves; do not read its tab. Tell them its keys:
