+- A desktop/Start Menu shortcut to open the dashboard
+- A `claude-dashboard://` protocol handler for quick access
 
 ### Uninstall

+## Dashboard features
+
+- **Real-time session cards** — each Claude Code session appears as a card with status, project folder, working directory, last event, and time-ago timestamp
+- **Status indicators** — animated dots show running (yellow, pulsing), waiting for input (blue, breathing), or done (green, static)
+- **Browser notifications** — opt-in desktop notifications when a session transitions to "waiting for input" (toggle in the header)
+- **Event logging** — toggle detailed event logging to `~/.claude-code-dashboard/logs/` from the dashboard footer
+- **Server controls** — restart or stop the server directly from the dashboard UI
+- **Connection indicator** — visual feedback showing whether the browser is connected to the server
+- **Idle cleanup** — sessions are automatically removed after 5 minutes of inactivity

 ## Session states
 
-| Hook event | Dashboard status |
-|---|---|
-| `SessionStart` | Waiting for input |
-| `UserPromptSubmit` | Running |
-| `Stop` | Waiting for input |
-| `SessionEnd` | Done |
+The dashboard tracks session status based on multiple hook events:
+
+| Hook event | Dashboard status | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SessionStart` | Done | New session, no prompt yet |
+| `UserPromptSubmit` | Running | User submitted a prompt |
+| `PreToolUse` | Waiting / Running | Waiting if tool needs approval; running if auto-approved |
+| `PermissionRequest` | Waiting | Tool requires explicit user permission |
+| `PostToolUse` | Running | Tool finished, Claude is working |
+| `Stop` | Done | Session stopped |
+| `SessionEnd` | *(removed)* | Session removed from dashboard |
+
+The `PreToolUse` logic is context-aware: interactive tools (Write, Edit, NotebookEdit, ExitPlanMode, AskUserQuestion) set status to "waiting", unless the session is in `acceptEdits` mode where edit tools are auto-approved.
 
 Sessions are sorted by status (running first, then waiting, then done) and by last update time within each group.
