Tau Board

Tau endpoint profile

Each profile points to a running local Tau process. Chat and A2A model choices come from the authenticated backend catalog and can change within a session.

Saved profile

Tau URL

Provider

Local state directory

Leave blank to derive it from Tau health and TAU_LOCAL_STATE_ROOT.

Connection

Choose a profile and check its connection.

Local sessions and Tasks stay on this machine. Tau tools can still change real Main Sequence resources.

Loaded agent

Local session

Inspection never loads a session. Start or resume it through Chat or A2A first.

Select an already loaded session.

Effective tools

The exact catalog exposed to the selected session, grouped by runtime ownership.

Tool details

Argument schema

Project tool workbench

This invokes real project Python code with Tau's filesystem, network, environment, and credential access. It is not a sandbox or rollback.

Canonical JSON arguments

I understand this executes real code and may cause side effects.

No tool test has run.

Event

These values come from Tau Board's startup environment and its local .env file. Tau may have been started with different values. Saving .env changes does not reconfigure a running Tau or Board process; restart the affected process to use them.

Current board session

Tau endpoint now

Local state directory now

This updates the selected profile immediately. It does not write .env.

Credential presence

Board process and local .env are shown separately. Credential values are never sent to the browser. A Tau process that uses the Main Sequence CLI session needs no token here. Connect shows its credential source.

Local environment settings

Edit the local .env column, then save. Only the named non-secret variables below can be changed here. An empty field removes its assignment from .env.
