What this page can and cannot see
Your key is typed at the setup wizard's own hidden prompt, inside
the machine in this tab. This page passes your keystrokes to that
machine and nowhere else, and the key is gone when you close the
tab.
Files you add are visible to the model, and on the networked tier
their contents reach your provider like anything else you send.
They live in this tab's memory and are gone when you close it.
Requests to your provider are encrypted inside that machine,
so the relay that carries them holds ciphertext. It can see which
provider you are contacting and how many bytes moved, and it cannot
read your key, your prompts or the replies. That does not depend on
trusting the relay: it is what terminating TLS inside the machine
means.
This site is served by a hosting provider that may receive its own
error reports about failed requests. Those carry no page content and
nothing from the machine in this tab.
This page shows the commit it was built from. The source and the
deployment runbook are linked below, so you can rebuild it and run
it yourself.
Questions
Pasting does nothing, or nothing appears when I paste
Paste with Ctrl-Shift-V. Plain Ctrl-V is not a paste in a
terminal; it sends a control byte. At the key prompt the terminal
shows nothing at all while you type or paste: no characters, no
dots. That is correct. The prompt has not hung. Press Enter.
How do I get out of a question?
Ctrl-C leaves the wizard at a shell prompt, where
temur init starts it again. At the hidden key
prompt Ctrl-C is ignored on purpose, because echo is off there
and it could leave you at a terminal that has stopped showing
what you type. Press Enter on the empty line instead.
How do I change the key, or use a different provider?
temur init --force. It rewrites the configuration
but will not overwrite a key file that already has a key in it:
it says the file was left untouched and never asks. Delete the
file first, for example
rm /root/.secrets/temur-anthropic-key. Each
provider keeps its own file, so switching provider needs no
deletion.
Why not template 1, the local one?
It points temur at a model server on the same machine, which is
how you would run it against llama.cpp on a real computer. In
this tab nothing is listening there. Pick a hosted provider.
What happens when I close the tab?
The whole computer stops existing, with its files, the
configuration and your key. Nothing is written to your disk, so
you type the key again next time.
