Launching the control panel

Launch the panel:

engram entry

The command starts a local server and opens your default browser at the panel URL.

Browser behavior​

The panel opens automatically in your default browser. If it does not, copy the printed URL into a browser manually.

Local server behavior​

The server binds locally so only your machine can reach it. It is not exposed to the network by default.

Close server flow​

Close the server from the Runtime tab using the Close server action, or stop the terminal process that started engram entry. Closing the browser tab does not stop the server.

Common launch errors​

  • Port already in use — another process is using the panel port. Stop it or follow the printed fallback instructions.
  • Browser did not open — copy the printed URL into a browser manually.
  • No workspace initialized — run engram inject first, or use engram entry from a project root.
