+title: "Control UI"
+---
+
+# Control UI (browser)
+
+The Control UI is a small **Vite + Lit** single-page app served by the Gateway:
+
+- default: `http://<host>:18789/`
+- optional prefix: set `gateway.controlUi.basePath` (e.g. `/vora`)
+
+It speaks **directly to the Gateway WebSocket** on the same port.
+
+## Quick open (local)
+
+If the Gateway is running on the same computer, open:
+
+- [http://127.0.0.1:18789/](http://127.0.0.1:18789/) (or [http://localhost:18789/](http://localhost:18789/))
+
+If the page fails to load, start the Gateway first: `vora gateway`.
+
+Auth is supplied during the WebSocket handshake via:
+
+- `connect.params.auth.token`
+- `connect.params.auth.password`
+  The dashboard settings panel keeps a token for the current browser tab session and selected gateway URL; passwords are not persisted.
+  Onboarding generates a gateway token by default, so paste it here on first connect.
+
+## Device pairing (first connection)
+
+When you connect to the Control UI from a new browser or device, the Gateway
+requires a **one-time pairing approval** — even if you're on the same Tailnet
+with `gateway.auth.allowTailscale: true`. This is a security measure to prevent
+unauthorized access.
+
+**What you'll see:** "disconnected (1008): pairing required"
+
+**To approve the device:**
+
+```bash
+# List pending requests
+vora devices list
+
+# Approve by request ID
+vora devices approve <requestId>
+```
+
+If the browser retries pairing with changed auth details (role/scopes/public
+key), the previous pending request is superseded and a new `requestId` is
+created. Re-run `vora devices list` before approval.
+
+Once approved, the device is remembered and won't require re-approval unless
+you revoke it with `vora devices revoke --device <id> --role <role>`. See
+[Devices CLI](/cli/devices) for token rotation and revocation.
+
+**Notes:**
+
+- Local connections (`127.0.0.1`) are auto-approved.
+- Remote connections (LAN, Tailnet, etc.) require explicit approval.
+- Each browser profile generates a unique device ID, so switching browsers or
+  clearing browser data will require re-pairing.
+
+## Language support
+
+The Control UI can localize itself on first load based on your browser locale, and you can override it later from the language picker in the Access card.
+
+- Supported locales: `en`, `zh-CN`, `zh-TW`, `pt-BR`, `de`, `es`
+- Non-English translations are lazy-loaded in the browser.
+- The selected locale is saved in browser storage and reused on future visits.
+- Missing translation keys fall back to English.
+
+## What it can do (today)
+
+- Chat with the model via Gateway WS (`chat.history`, `chat.send`, `chat.abort`, `chat.inject`)
+- Stream tool calls + live tool output cards in Chat (agent events)
+- Channels: WhatsApp/Telegram/Discord/Slack + plugin channels (Mattermost, etc.) status + QR login + per-channel config (`channels.status`, `web.login.*`, `config.patch`)
+- Instances: presence list + refresh (`system-presence`)
+- Sessions: list + per-session thinking/fast/verbose/reasoning overrides (`sessions.list`, `sessions.patch`)
+- Cron jobs: list/add/edit/run/enable/disable + run history (`cron.*`)
+- Skills: status, enable/disable, install, API key updates (`skills.*`)
+- Nodes: list + caps (`node.list`)
+- Exec approvals: edit gateway or node allowlists + ask policy for `exec host=gateway/node` (`exec.approvals.*`)
+- Config: view/edit `~/.vora/vora.json` (`config.get`, `config.set`)
+- Config: apply + restart with validation (`config.apply`) and wake the last active session
+- Config writes include a base-hash guard to prevent clobbering concurrent edits
+- Config writes (`config.set`/`config.apply`/`config.patch`) also preflight active SecretRef resolution for refs in the submitted config payload; unresolved active submitted refs are rejected before write
+- Config schema + form rendering (`config.schema`, including plugin + channel schemas); Raw JSON editor is available only when the snapshot has a safe raw round-trip
+- If a snapshot cannot safely round-trip raw text, Control UI forces Form mode and disables Raw mode for that snapshot
+- Structured SecretRef object values are rendered read-only in form text inputs to prevent accidental object-to-string corruption
+- Debug: status/health/models snapshots + event log + manual RPC calls (`status`, `health`, `models.list`)
+- Logs: live tail of gateway file logs with filter/export (`logs.tail`)
+- Update: run a package/git update + restart (`update.run`) with a restart report
+
+Cron jobs panel notes:
+
+- For isolated jobs, delivery defaults to announce summary. You can switch to none if you want internal-only runs.
+- Channel/target fields appear when announce is selected.
+- Webhook mode uses `delivery.mode = "webhook"` with `delivery.to` set to a valid HTTP(S) webhook URL.
+- For main-session jobs, webhook and none delivery modes are available.
+- Advanced edit controls include delete-after-run, clear agent override, cron exact/stagger options,
+  agent model/thinking overrides, and best-effort delivery toggles.
+- Form validation is inline with field-level errors; invalid values disable the save button until fixed.
+- Set `cron.webhookToken` to send a dedicated bearer token, if omitted the webhook is sent without an auth header.
+- Deprecated fallback: stored legacy jobs with `notify: true` can still use `cron.webhook` until migrated.
+
+## Chat behavior
+
+- `chat.send` is **non-blocking**: it acks immediately with `{ runId, status: "started" }` and the response streams via `chat` events.
+- Re-sending with the same `idempotencyKey` returns `{ status: "in_flight" }` while running, and `{ status: "ok" }` after completion.
+- `chat.history` responses are size-bounded for UI safety. When transcript entries are too large, Gateway may truncate long text fields, omit heavy metadata blocks, and replace oversized messages with a placeholder (`[chat.history omitted: message too large]`).
+- `chat.inject` appends an assistant note to the session transcript and broadcasts a `chat` event for UI-only updates (no agent run, no channel delivery).
+- Stop:
+  - Click **Stop** (calls `chat.abort`)
+  - Type `/stop` (or standalone abort phrases like `stop`, `stop action`, `stop run`, `stop vora`, `please stop`) to abort out-of-band
+  - `chat.abort` supports `{ sessionKey }` (no `runId`) to abort all active runs for that session
+- Abort partial retention:
+  - When a run is aborted, partial assistant text can still be shown in the UI
+  - Gateway persists aborted partial assistant text into transcript history when buffered output exists
+  - Persisted entries include abort metadata so transcript consumers can tell abort partials from normal completion output
+
+## Tailnet access (recommended)
+
+### Integrated Tailscale Serve (preferred)
+
+Keep the Gateway on loopback and let Tailscale Serve proxy it with HTTPS:
+
+```bash
+vora gateway --tailscale serve
+```
+
+Open:
+
+- `https://<magicdns>/` (or your configured `gateway.controlUi.basePath`)
+
+By default, Control UI/WebSocket Serve requests can authenticate via Tailscale identity headers
+(`tailscale-user-login`) when `gateway.auth.allowTailscale` is `true`. Vora
+verifies the identity by resolving the `x-forwarded-for` address with
+`tailscale whois` and matching it to the header, and only accepts these when the
+request hits loopback with Tailscale’s `x-forwarded-*` headers. Set
+`gateway.auth.allowTailscale: false` (or force `gateway.auth.mode: "password"`)
+if you want to require a token/password even for Serve traffic.
+Tokenless Serve auth assumes the gateway host is trusted. If untrusted local
+code may run on that host, require token/password auth.
+
+### Bind to tailnet + token
+
+```bash
+vora gateway --bind tailnet --token "$(openssl rand -hex 32)"
+```
+
+Then open:
+
+- `http://<tailscale-ip>:18789/` (or your configured `gateway.controlUi.basePath`)
+
+Paste the token into the UI settings (sent as `connect.params.auth.token`).
+
+## Insecure HTTP
+
+If you open the dashboard over plain HTTP (`http://<lan-ip>` or `http://<tailscale-ip>`),
+the browser runs in a **non-secure context** and blocks WebCrypto. By default,
+Vora **blocks** Control UI connections without device identity.
+
+**Recommended fix:** use HTTPS (Tailscale Serve) or open the UI locally:
+
+- `https://<magicdns>/` (Serve)
+- `http://127.0.0.1:18789/` (on the gateway host)
+
+**Insecure-auth toggle behavior:**
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    controlUi: { allowInsecureAuth: true },
+    bind: "tailnet",
+    auth: { mode: "token", token: "replace-me" },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+`allowInsecureAuth` is a local compatibility toggle only:
+
+- It allows localhost Control UI sessions to proceed without device identity in
+  non-secure HTTP contexts.
+- It does not bypass pairing checks.
+- It does not relax remote (non-localhost) device identity requirements.
+
+**Break-glass only:**
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    controlUi: { dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth: true },
+    bind: "tailnet",
+    auth: { mode: "token", token: "replace-me" },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+`dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth` disables Control UI device identity checks and is a
+severe security downgrade. Revert quickly after emergency use.
+
+See [Tailscale](/gateway/tailscale) for HTTPS setup guidance.
+
+## Building the UI
+
+The Gateway serves static files from `dist/control-ui`. Build them with:
+
+```bash
+pnpm ui:build # auto-installs UI deps on first run
+```
+
+Optional absolute base (when you want fixed asset URLs):
+
+```bash
+VORA_CONTROL_UI_BASE_PATH=/vora/ pnpm ui:build
+```
+
+For local development (separate dev server):
+
+```bash
+pnpm ui:dev # auto-installs UI deps on first run
+```
+
+Then point the UI at your Gateway WS URL (e.g. `ws://127.0.0.1:18789`).
+
+## Debugging/testing: dev server + remote Gateway
+
+The Control UI is static files; the WebSocket target is configurable and can be
+different from the HTTP origin. This is handy when you want the Vite dev server
+locally but the Gateway runs elsewhere.
+
+1. Start the UI dev server: `pnpm ui:dev`
+2. Open a URL like:
+
+```text
+http://localhost:5173/?gatewayUrl=ws://<gateway-host>:18789
+```
+
+Optional one-time auth (if needed):
+
+```text
+http://localhost:5173/?gatewayUrl=wss://<gateway-host>:18789#token=<gateway-token>
+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- `gatewayUrl` is stored in localStorage after load and removed from the URL.
+- `token` should be passed via the URL fragment (`#token=...`) whenever possible. Fragments are not sent to the server, which avoids request-log and Referer leakage. Legacy `?token=` query params are still imported once for compatibility, but only as a fallback, and are stripped immediately after bootstrap.
+- `password` is kept in memory only.
+- When `gatewayUrl` is set, the UI does not fall back to config or environment credentials.
+  Provide `token` (or `password`) explicitly. Missing explicit credentials is an error.
+- Use `wss://` when the Gateway is behind TLS (Tailscale Serve, HTTPS proxy, etc.).
+- `gatewayUrl` is only accepted in a top-level window (not embedded) to prevent clickjacking.
+- Non-loopback Control UI deployments must set `gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins`
+  explicitly (full origins). This includes remote dev setups.
+- Do not use `gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins: ["*"]` except for tightly controlled
+  local testing. It means allow any browser origin, not “match whatever host I am
+  using.”
+- `gateway.controlUi.dangerouslyAllowHostHeaderOriginFallback=true` enables
+  Host-header origin fallback mode, but it is a dangerous security mode.
+
+Example:
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    controlUi: {
+      allowedOrigins: ["http://localhost:5173"],
+    },
+  },
+}
+```

+# Dashboard (Control UI)
+
+The Gateway dashboard is the browser Control UI served at `/` by default
+(override with `gateway.controlUi.basePath`).
+
+Quick open (local Gateway):
+
+- [http://127.0.0.1:18789/](http://127.0.0.1:18789/) (or [http://localhost:18789/](http://localhost:18789/))
+
+Key references:
+
+- [Control UI](/web/control-ui) for usage and UI capabilities.
+- [Tailscale](/gateway/tailscale) for Serve/Funnel automation.
+- [Web surfaces](/web) for bind modes and security notes.
+
+Authentication is enforced at the WebSocket handshake via `connect.params.auth`
+(token or password). See `gateway.auth` in [Gateway configuration](/gateway/configuration).
+
+Security note: the Control UI is an **admin surface** (chat, config, exec approvals).
+Do not expose it publicly. The UI keeps dashboard URL tokens in sessionStorage
+for the current browser tab session and selected gateway URL, and strips them from the URL after load.
+Prefer localhost, Tailscale Serve, or an SSH tunnel.
+
+## Fast path (recommended)
+
+- After onboarding, the CLI auto-opens the dashboard and prints a clean (non-tokenized) link.
+- Re-open anytime: `vora dashboard` (copies link, opens browser if possible, shows SSH hint if headless).
+- If the UI prompts for auth, paste the token from `gateway.auth.token` (or `VORA_GATEWAY_TOKEN`) into Control UI settings.
+
+## Token basics (local vs remote)
+
+- **Localhost**: open `http://127.0.0.1:18789/`.
+- **Token source**: `gateway.auth.token` (or `VORA_GATEWAY_TOKEN`); `vora dashboard` can pass it via URL fragment for one-time bootstrap, and the Control UI keeps it in sessionStorage for the current browser tab session and selected gateway URL instead of localStorage.
+- If `gateway.auth.token` is SecretRef-managed, `vora dashboard` prints/copies/opens a non-tokenized URL by design. This avoids exposing externally managed tokens in shell logs, clipboard history, or browser-launch arguments.
+- If `gateway.auth.token` is configured as a SecretRef and is unresolved in your current shell, `vora dashboard` still prints a non-tokenized URL plus actionable auth setup guidance.
+- **Not localhost**: use Tailscale Serve (tokenless for Control UI/WebSocket if `gateway.auth.allowTailscale: true`, assumes trusted gateway host; HTTP APIs still need token/password), tailnet bind with a token, or an SSH tunnel. See [Web surfaces](/web).
+
+<a id="if-you-see-unauthorized-1008"></a>
+
+## If you see "unauthorized" / 1008
+
+- Ensure the gateway is reachable (local: `vora status`; remote: SSH tunnel `ssh -N -L 18789:127.0.0.1:18789 user@host` then open `http://127.0.0.1:18789/`).
+- For `AUTH_TOKEN_MISMATCH`, clients may do one trusted retry with a cached device token when the gateway returns retry hints. If auth still fails after that retry, resolve token drift manually.
+- For token drift repair steps, follow [Token drift recovery checklist](/cli/devices#token-drift-recovery-checklist).
+- Retrieve or supply the token from the gateway host:
+  - Plaintext config: `vora config get gateway.auth.token`
+  - SecretRef-managed config: resolve the external secret provider or export `VORA_GATEWAY_TOKEN` in this shell, then rerun `vora dashboard`
+  - No token configured: `vora doctor --generate-gateway-token`
+- In the dashboard settings, paste the token into the auth field, then connect.

+
+# Web (Gateway)
+
+The Gateway serves a small **browser Control UI** (Vite + Lit) from the same port as the Gateway WebSocket:
+
+- default: `http://<host>:18789/`
+- optional prefix: set `gateway.controlUi.basePath` (e.g. `/vora`)
+
+Capabilities live in [Control UI](/web/control-ui).
+This page focuses on bind modes, security, and web-facing surfaces.
+
+## Webhooks
+
+When `hooks.enabled=true`, the Gateway also exposes a small webhook endpoint on the same HTTP server.
+See [Gateway configuration](/gateway/configuration) → `hooks` for auth + payloads.
+
+## Config (default-on)
+
+The Control UI is **enabled by default** when assets are present (`dist/control-ui`).
+You can control it via config:
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    controlUi: { enabled: true, basePath: "/vora" }, // basePath optional
+  },
+}
+```
+
+## Tailscale access
+
+### Integrated Serve (recommended)
+
+Keep the Gateway on loopback and let Tailscale Serve proxy it:
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    bind: "loopback",
+    tailscale: { mode: "serve" },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+Then start the gateway:
+
+```bash
+vora gateway
+```
+
+Open:
+
+- `https://<magicdns>/` (or your configured `gateway.controlUi.basePath`)
+
+### Tailnet bind + token
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    bind: "tailnet",
+    controlUi: { enabled: true },
+    auth: { mode: "token", token: "your-token" },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+Then start the gateway (token required for non-loopback binds):
+
+```bash
+vora gateway
+```
+
+Open:
+
+- `http://<tailscale-ip>:18789/` (or your configured `gateway.controlUi.basePath`)
+
+### Public internet (Funnel)
+
+```json5
+{
+  gateway: {
+    bind: "loopback",
+    tailscale: { mode: "funnel" },
+    auth: { mode: "password" }, // or VORA_GATEWAY_PASSWORD
+  },
+}
+```
+
+## Security notes
+
+- Gateway auth is required by default (token/password or Tailscale identity headers).
+- Non-loopback binds still **require** a shared token/password (`gateway.auth` or env).
+- The wizard generates a gateway token by default (even on loopback).
+- The UI sends `connect.params.auth.token` or `connect.params.auth.password`.
+- For non-loopback Control UI deployments, set `gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins`
+  explicitly (full origins). Without it, gateway startup is refused by default.
+- `gateway.controlUi.dangerouslyAllowHostHeaderOriginFallback=true` enables
+  Host-header origin fallback mode, but is a dangerous security downgrade.
+- With Serve, Tailscale identity headers can satisfy Control UI/WebSocket auth
+  when `gateway.auth.allowTailscale` is `true` (no token/password required).
+  HTTP API endpoints still require token/password. Set
+  `gateway.auth.allowTailscale: false` to require explicit credentials. See
+  [Tailscale](/gateway/tailscale) and [Security](/gateway/security). This
+  tokenless flow assumes the gateway host is trusted.
+- `gateway.tailscale.mode: "funnel"` requires `gateway.auth.mode: "password"` (shared password).
+
+## Building the UI
+
+The Gateway serves static files from `dist/control-ui`. Build them with:
+
+```bash
+pnpm ui:build # auto-installs UI deps on first run
+```

+  - You want a beginner-friendly walkthrough of the TUI
+  - You need the complete list of TUI features, commands, and shortcuts
+title: "TUI"
+---
+
+# TUI (Terminal UI)
+
+## Quick start
+
+1. Start the Gateway.
+
+```bash
+vora gateway
+```
+
+2. Open the TUI.
+
+```bash
+vora tui
+```
+
+3. Type a message and press Enter.
+
+Remote Gateway:
+
+```bash
+vora tui --url ws://<host>:<port> --token <gateway-token>
+```
+
+Use `--password` if your Gateway uses password auth.
+
+## What you see
+
+- Header: connection URL, current agent, current session.
+- Chat log: user messages, assistant replies, system notices, tool cards.
+- Status line: connection/run state (connecting, running, streaming, idle, error).
+- Footer: connection state + agent + session + model + think/fast/verbose/reasoning + token counts + deliver.
+- Input: text editor with autocomplete.
+
+## Mental model: agents + sessions
+
+- Agents are unique slugs (e.g. `main`, `research`). The Gateway exposes the list.
+- Sessions belong to the current agent.
+- Session keys are stored as `agent:<agentId>:<sessionKey>`.
+  - If you type `/session main`, the TUI expands it to `agent:<currentAgent>:main`.
+  - If you type `/session agent:other:main`, you switch to that agent session explicitly.
+- Session scope:
+  - `per-sender` (default): each agent has many sessions.
+  - `global`: the TUI always uses the `global` session (the picker may be empty).
+- The current agent + session are always visible in the footer.
+
+## Sending + delivery
+
+- Messages are sent to the Gateway; delivery to providers is off by default.
+- Turn delivery on:
+  - `/deliver on`
+  - or the Settings panel
+  - or start with `vora tui --deliver`
+
+## Pickers + overlays
+
+- Model picker: list available models and set the session override.
+- Agent picker: choose a different agent.
+- Session picker: shows only sessions for the current agent.
+- Settings: toggle deliver, tool output expansion, and thinking visibility.
+
+## Keyboard shortcuts
+
+- Enter: send message
+- Esc: abort active run
+- Ctrl+C: clear input (press twice to exit)
+- Ctrl+D: exit
+- Ctrl+L: model picker
+- Ctrl+G: agent picker
+- Ctrl+P: session picker
+- Ctrl+O: toggle tool output expansion
+- Ctrl+T: toggle thinking visibility (reloads history)
+
+## Slash commands
+
+Core:
+
+- `/help`
+- `/status`
+- `/agent <id>` (or `/agents`)
+- `/session <key>` (or `/sessions`)
+- `/model <provider/model>` (or `/models`)
+
+Session controls:
+
+- `/think <off|minimal|low|medium|high>`
+- `/fast <status|on|off>`
+- `/verbose <on|full|off>`
+- `/reasoning <on|off|stream>`
+- `/usage <off|tokens|full>`
+- `/elevated <on|off|ask|full>` (alias: `/elev`)
+- `/activation <mention|always>`
+- `/deliver <on|off>`
+
+Session lifecycle:
+
+- `/new` or `/reset` (reset the session)
+- `/abort` (abort the active run)
+- `/settings`
+- `/exit`
+
+Other Gateway slash commands (for example, `/context`) are forwarded to the Gateway and shown as system output. See [Slash commands](/tools/slash-commands).
+
+## Local shell commands
+
+- Prefix a line with `!` to run a local shell command on the TUI host.
+- The TUI prompts once per session to allow local execution; declining keeps `!` disabled for the session.
+- Commands run in a fresh, non-interactive shell in the TUI working directory (no persistent `cd`/env).
+- Local shell commands receive `VORA_SHELL=tui-local` in their environment.
+- A lone `!` is sent as a normal message; leading spaces do not trigger local exec.
+
+## Tool output
+
+- Tool calls show as cards with args + results.
+- Ctrl+O toggles between collapsed/expanded views.
+- While tools run, partial updates stream into the same card.
+
+## Terminal colors
+
+- The TUI keeps assistant body text in your terminal's default foreground so dark and light terminals both stay readable.
+- If your terminal uses a light background and auto-detection is wrong, set `VORA_THEME=light` before launching `vora tui`.
+- To force the original dark palette instead, set `VORA_THEME=dark`.
+
+## History + streaming
+
+- On connect, the TUI loads the latest history (default 200 messages).
+- Streaming responses update in place until finalized.
+- The TUI also listens to agent tool events for richer tool cards.
+
+## Connection details
+
+- The TUI registers with the Gateway as `mode: "tui"`.
+- Reconnects show a system message; event gaps are surfaced in the log.
+
+## Options
+
+- `--url <url>`: Gateway WebSocket URL (defaults to config or `ws://127.0.0.1:<port>`)
+- `--token <token>`: Gateway token (if required)
+- `--password <password>`: Gateway password (if required)
+- `--session <key>`: Session key (default: `main`, or `global` when scope is global)
+- `--deliver`: Deliver assistant replies to the provider (default off)
+- `--thinking <level>`: Override thinking level for sends
+- `--timeout-ms <ms>`: Agent timeout in ms (defaults to `agents.defaults.timeoutSeconds`)
+
+Note: when you set `--url`, the TUI does not fall back to config or environment credentials.
+Pass `--token` or `--password` explicitly. Missing explicit credentials is an error.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+No output after sending a message:
+
+- Run `/status` in the TUI to confirm the Gateway is connected and idle/busy.
+- Check the Gateway logs: `vora logs --follow`.
+- Confirm the agent can run: `vora status` and `vora models status`.
+- If you expect messages in a chat channel, enable delivery (`/deliver on` or `--deliver`).
+- `--history-limit <n>`: History entries to load (default 200)
+
+## Connection troubleshooting
+
+- `disconnected`: ensure the Gateway is running and your `--url/--token/--password` are correct.
+- No agents in picker: check `vora agents list` and your routing config.
+- Empty session picker: you might be in global scope or have no sessions yet.
