- Fresh installations receive a small set of bundled onboarding channels, each installed exactly once per storage directory. After installation they are ordinary channels: rename, edit, or delete them like any other, and Television never re-creates or overwrites what changed. You can tell one apart from a user-created channel by the `onboarding` marker containing its stable channel slug — visible in `tv list-channels` / `tv get-channel` output; user-created channels have no such field. Marked channels appear as ordinary unpinned channels and receive no special browser promotion. The marker changes nothing about how you manage the channel.

- If the user wants to opt out, you turn telemetry off for them by running `tv telemetry disable` against the running server (`tv telemetry enable` turns it back on); `tv status` reports the current telemetry state. The command needs a live server. Television also honors the standard `DO_NOT_TRACK` environment variable when it is set, but `tv telemetry disable` is the intended way to opt out. Install- and upgrade-time telemetry duties — the disclosure to give the user and the `--installed-by-agent` flag — are covered in the admin guide (see the Administration section above).

- `tv status` reports server health and, when supported, system service status. Workflow commands connect to `localhost:<port>` only; use `--port`, `TELEVISION_PORT`, or the default `32848` rather than `--server`. When targeting non-default storage, pass `--storage-path` or set `TELEVISION_STORAGE_PATH` so the CLI reads the matching token from `<storagePath>/state/token`.
147
+ Each `tv` command works with one Television home, the directory that holds an installation's config file, token, channels, artifacts, themes, and logs. A command uses the home given with `--home <path>`, otherwise the path written in `~/.tv-home`, otherwise `~/.television`. `--home` applies only to the command that receives it, so when you work with a home other than the default, pass the same `--home` to every command. The server and commands share the settings in the home's optional `config.json`; `tv config show` prints the selected home and its effective settings.

+ `tv status` reports the selected home, server health, and, when supported, system service status. Commands that contact the server connect to `localhost` on the config file's port, with the token from `<home>/state/token`; there is no `--server` option. They take `--port <number>` only when the config file sets port `0`, and then require it, using the port from the server's startup URL. `tv themes-path` prints the home's themes directory.
