Solutions

1. Check server console 'Error loading summary:' for root cause
2. Verify skills directories exist and are readable
3. Restart the dashboard to rescan

try { const s = await getSummary(); } catch { await delay(1000); retryOnce(); }

When it happens

Trigger: GET /api/summary while a skill directory is unreadable, a skills path is missing, or the scan routine throws on unexpected content.

Common situations: Skills directory deleted or moved after dashboard start; permission problems in ~/.claude/skills; malformed skill metadata during scan.
