MEGA INFRASTRUCTURE — Operations Dashboard
A Next.js 16 + TypeScript + Tailwind v4 operations dashboard for a South African civil construction company, backed by PocketBase. Tracks, per construction site: contracts, employees & timesheets, vehicles (fuel + plant), fuel logs, plant hour meters, fixed costs, income claims, purchase orders + line items, and delivery notes with OCR-driven receipting. Includes an LLM agent ("Ask") that reads the same data the dashboard uses, measures anything with free queries and its own charts, reads any file you attach, remembers lasting facts, changes data through confirm-first proposed actions with undo, and files its own PDF reports and app change requests — plus a read-only MCP server.
Named PocketBase logins are required after the login migration. Shared PIN sign-in is disabled. Local development uses the same named sign-in as production. Management planning is available only to admins.
Quick start
cp .env.local.example .env.local
# edit NEXT_PUBLIC_POCKETBASE_URL, POCKETBASE_ADMIN_*, N8N_*
npm install
npm run dev # next dev -H 0.0.0.0 -p 6004 --webpack
Production build / start:
npm run build # icons + og-image + next build --webpack
npm run start # next start -H 0.0.0.0 -p 3000
Docker / Coolify: see COOLIFY.md and the
Dockerfile.
MCP server (stdio, read-only):
npm run mcp # uses the PocketBase creds in .env.local
Modules
The sidebar (src/components/layout/sidebar.tsx) has five top-level
pages and three groups. Each is documented in
docs/modules.md.
| Path | Module | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
/dashboard |
Overview | KPI tiles, fuel-attention card grouped by site, 7-day rain outlook, every site |
/dashboard/sites, /dashboard/sites/[id] |
Sites | Per-site profitability, burn, P&L, payroll, weekly & monthly trends |
/dashboard/workforce |
Workforce | Landing: people cost this week |
/dashboard/workforce/workers[/[employeeId]] |
Workers | Every worker, hours, cost, printable QR badge |
/dashboard/workforce/timesheets |
Timesheets | Every entry from every source; spreadsheet import |
/dashboard/workforce/on-site |
On site now | Today's MEGA Clock attendance + Needs attention (missed scan-outs) |
/dashboard/plant |
Plant | Landing: fuel pumped, hours run, cost |
/dashboard/plant/vehicles[/[vehicleId]] |
Vehicles (L/km) | Fleet fuel efficiency, variance, dismissable attention |
/dashboard/plant/equipment[/[vehicleId]] |
Equipment (L/h) | Plant hour-meters, L/h, billable value |
/dashboard/plant/fuel-logs |
Fuel logs | Every fuel log across both buckets |
/dashboard/plant/map |
Map | Leaflet view of each vehicle's last scanned position |
/dashboard/financial |
Financial | Landing: open PO value, slips received, uploads waiting |
/dashboard/financial/purchase-orders[/[poId]] |
Purchase Orders | Every PO, fulfilment %, line editing, verify |
/dashboard/financial/delivery-notes (+ /inbox, /work-queue, /document/[id]) |
Delivery Notes | Upload → OCR → match → post pipeline and its review queues |
/dashboard/financial/suppliers[/[supplierId]] |
Suppliers | Ordered / delivered / outstanding per supplier |
/dashboard/chat |
Ask | Agent: free queries + charts, files, memory, proposed data changes with undo, PDF reports, images |
/dashboard/change-requests |
Change requests | App changes ("can we add this page/column/button?") Ask has logged for the developer |
/clock |
MEGA Clock | Installable phone PWA: worker badge scan in/out + vehicle hour-meter scan |
Old paths (/dashboard/employees, /dashboard/fuel[/id],
/dashboard/purchasing[/id], /dashboard/plant/[id]) still work — they
redirect to the pages above and keep ?site=.

Tests
npm run typecheck # tsc --noEmit
npm run test:run # vitest run
npm run lint # eslint . — not yet clean, see docs/operations.md §4.1
The metric helpers under src/lib/metrics/*.test.ts pin every
computation the dashboard exposes. Run after any change to the
financial roll-up.
