# Epic objective

Echodo UI for human gates and convoy visibility:

- **Convoy kanban** — columns map to state machine statuses (Planning, Awaiting plan approval, Building, …).
- **Gate inbox** — “needs you” queue for `convoy_review`, `pr_review`, pre-`released`.
- **Approve / deny / request changes** — calls `transition_convoy_status` with correct `human-gate-*` actor.
- **Gate co-pilot** — AI panel using `gate-copilot` role route (`resolveModel`) to summarize plan/diff and suggest action.

## In scope / out of scope

**In scope**

- Routes under `/{workspaceSlug}/convoys/` or `/mission-control/`.
- Conductor-style chat to seed convoys (can call `create_convoy` MCP or web tRPC wrapper).

**Out of scope**

- Fleet cross-repo view (Epic 9).
- Unattended orchestration (Epic 6).

## Dependencies

- Epic 4 (lifecycle transitions and queryable convoy state).

## Blocks

- Epic 6 (orchestrator pauses until gate UI exists for dogfood).

## Acceptance criteria

- [ ] Operator sees pending Gate 1 convoy and approves → status `ready`.
- [ ] Co-pilot uses `claude-planning` alias when configured.

## Tasks

_To be decomposed when epic graduates to `ready`._
