Health and Metrics

  1. Open HMD from an allowed HMD/dev/admin account.
  2. Review system, storage, and database snapshots.
  3. Use logs to inspect recent platform activity.
  4. Check service scale estimates in Admin if needed.

Emergency Controls

  1. Use shutdown only when the server needs to block normal users.
  2. Shutdown keeps owner/admin/HMD access available.
  3. Restart returns service to normal access.
  4. Create backups before risky changes.

Localhost Tools

  • Use localhost tools for desktop/local runs.
  • Check persistence paths before testing uploads.
  • Use the health endpoint after boot.

Advanced Tools

  • Prepare bots and plugins.
  • Configure AI provider settings where available.
  • Review automod and moderation settings.
  • Keep hidden admin/HMD tools restricted.
