Proposed states: 🔴 Stopped – application is not running 🟡 Starting – application is starting, restarting, or being deployed 🟢 Running – application is up and operational These indicators should be visible: at the application / Compose stack level optionally at the individual service level within the Compose stack Operational Value Improved real-time observability without accessing the CLI or entering the app. Faster mean time to resolution (MTTR). Clear and reliable deployment validation. Behavior aligned with modern container orchestration UX standards.
