Phase 2: Build & Test
Once you launch a build, Rogue Architect transitions into active building mode. The canvas becomes a real-time monitoring dashboard where you can watch your infrastructure spin up, track plugin execution, and debug issues as they happen.
What You’ll See
Section titled “What You’ll See”When a build is running, several new UI elements appear:
- Bottom Progress Bar — A persistent footer showing overall build progress, elapsed time, and snapshot checkpoints
- Infrastructure Cards — Floating cards at the top-left showing the status of infrastructure VMs (router, file share, etc.)
- Build Logs — A real-time event feed in the left sidebar
- Machine Inspection — Click any machine on the canvas to see per-plugin build progress
The Help Me! panel automatically jumps to the Build & Test section with guidance on using each monitoring tool.
