Real-time ActivityPub debug dashboard #234

@dahlia

Description

@dahlia

A debug dashboard that shows all ActivityPub activities being sent and received in real-time would greatly improve the developer experience when building federated applications with Fedify.

Proposed features

  • Real-time monitoring of inbound/outbound activities
  • Filtering by activity type, sender, receiver
  • Detailed inspection of JSON-LD content and HTTP headers
  • Signature verification details (HTTP Signatures, LD Signatures, Object Integrity Proofs)
  • Retry queue management for failed deliveries

Implementation options

  1. Embedded web dashboard (accessible at a debug endpoint)
  2. Browser extension/developer tools integration
  3. Enhanced logging visualization

Questions

  • Should this be development-only or configurable for production use?
  • How should we handle potentially sensitive information?
  • Are there specific debugging pain points this should address?
