Web UI
What each page of the web UI at http://127.0.0.1:7690 does.
switchboard up opens the web UI at http://127.0.0.1:7690. It edits the same config.json as the CLI, through the daemon's admin API, and updates live as servers start, clients connect and tools are called.
Overview
The daemon's version, port and uptime, counts of servers, profiles and active sessions, and a table of the clients connected right now: their profile, how that profile was chosen (path, header, client rule or default) and the surface they get.
Servers
Every configured server with its transport, state and tool count. Add a server with the form, or Paste JSON from any mcp.json, including a whole mcpServers block. A server's page has three tabs: settings, its cached tools, and logs with its recent stderr output. Test starts it and lists its tools; Restart stops and starts it again. The form warns about secret:// references whose secret is not stored yet. See Importing servers.
Import
The MCP servers found in your clients' configuration files, grouped by client. Select the ones you want, and rename them if needed, then import them in one step. Importing a server with a name that already exists replaces it. See Importing servers.
Profiles
Create and edit profiles: name, description, servers, include and exclude patterns, and the surface with its threshold and code-mode budgets. Every tool of the profile's servers has a switch, which edits include and exclude for you, and Customize sets an override of its name or description.
A live preview shows, before you save, exactly what a client of the profile will see: the surface auto would pick, the names clients get, and an estimate of how many tokens the tool list costs compared with passthrough.
Clients
Each supported client, whether it is installed, and the profile it is connected to. Pick a profile and Connect, Switch or Disconnect; see Connecting clients. The page also edits the client rules, in order, and the default profile, and shows copyable snippets for manual setup: the profile URL, the header form and the stdio bridge.
Secrets
The names of stored secrets and where they are kept (the OS keychain or the secrets file). Add or replace a secret, or delete one. Values are write-only. See Secrets and OAuth.
Activity
The most recent tool calls, newest first: time, profile, client, tool, whether it was called directly, through call_tool or from code mode, duration, and any error. Filter by profile or show only errors. Arguments and results are never recorded.
