+## Troubleshooting: daemon stuck / restart
+
+The daemon owns sessions and PTYs. If it becomes unresponsive, the only recovery
+today is a manual restart, which **will terminate all running sessions**.
+
+**Manual restart (macOS default path):**
+```bash
+kill "$(cat "$HOME/Library/Application Support/peakypanes/daemon.pid")"
+```
+
+**Manual restart (Linux default path):**
+```bash
+kill "$(cat "$HOME/.config/peakypanes/daemon.pid")"
+```
+
+You can also set `PEAKYPANES_DAEMON_PID` to control the pid file location.
+
+### Proposed UX (future)
+If the app detects a hung daemon, it should show a dialog like:
+**“Restart daemon? This will stop all running sessions and close their PTYs.”**
+This makes the data-loss tradeoff explicit before taking action.

 ## Dashboard UI
 
 Running `peakypanes` with no subcommand opens the dashboard UI in the current terminal.
-Use `peakypanes dashboard --tmux-session` to host the dashboard in a dedicated tmux session.
-Use `peakypanes popup` (or `peakypanes dashboard --popup`) from inside tmux for a popup dashboard.
-If popups are unsupported, PeakyPanes opens a `peakypanes-dashboard` window in the current tmux session.
 
 The dashboard shows:
 - Projects on top (tabs)
-- Sessions on the left (with window counts and expandable windows)
-- Live pane preview on the right (window bar at the bottom)
-- Lightweight session thumbnails at the bottom (last activity per session)
+- Sessions on the left (with pane counts and expandable panes)
+- Live pane preview on the right (native panes are fully interactive)
 - Quick reply bar (always visible) and target pane highlight for follow-ups
 
 Navigation (always visible):
-- `ctrl+a/ctrl+d` project, `ctrl+w/ctrl+s` session, `tab/⇧tab` pane (across windows), `ctrl+g` help
+- `ctrl+a/ctrl+d` project, `ctrl+w/ctrl+s` session/panes, `alt+w/alt+s` session only, `tab/⇧tab` pane, `ctrl+g` help
 
 Key bindings (also shown in the help view):
 Keymap overrides are available in the global config (`~/.config/peakypanes/config.yml`).
 
 Project
 - `ctrl+o` open project picker (creates session detached; stay in dashboard)
-- `ctrl+b` close project (hides from tabs; sessions keep running; press k in the dialog to kill)
+- `ctrl+b` toggle sidebar (show/hide sessions list)
+- `alt+c` close project (hides from tabs; sessions keep running; press k in the dialog to kill)
 
 Session
 - `enter` attach/start session (when reply is empty)
 - `ctrl+n` new session (pick layout)
-- `ctrl+t` open in new terminal window
 - `ctrl+x` kill session
 - rename session via command palette (`ctrl+p`)

 ### Agent Status Detection (Codex & Claude Code)
 
 PeakyPanes can read per-pane JSON state files to show accurate running/idle/done status for Codex CLI and Claude Code TUI sessions. This is **on by default** and falls back to regex/idle detection if no state file is present. You can disable it via `dashboard.agent_detection`.
