Service Lifecycle

Every service in SanctuaryOS follows a lifecycle:

1. SCHEDULED — Service appears on the calendar, ready for planning
2. ACTIVE — Service has been started, check-in is open
3. COMPLETED — Service has ended, attendance is finalized
4. CANCELLED — Service was cancelled (reversible)

You can start a service from the calendar or the check-in picker. Once started, check-in becomes available across all devices in real-time via Server-Sent Events.

Real-Time Sync

All check-in operations sync instantly across every device. When someone checks in on one tablet, the roster updates immediately on all other tablets and computers connected to that service. This uses Server-Sent Events (SSE) — no polling, no delays.
