# Dashboard overview

> Use comet dashboard to inspect active and archived Comet changes in a local read-only browser view.

`comet dashboard` opens a local read-only browser interface for Comet workflow state. It helps you see active changes, phases, artifacts, task progress, verify state, risk signals, and Git context without manually opening many files.
