# Project Console

Connect one API base, Brain ID, and project key. The read-only console verifies the Brain first,
then loads identity, Record census, Memories, and recent Context traces independently.

There is no account login yet. A project key is the session. Create a disposable Brain in the
quickstart, or use the private API base, Brain ID, and revocable key from a design-partner invite.
The public console does not prefill credentials that look usable but point to no Brain.

The key remains in the password field and request. It is never written to a cookie, URL,
`localStorage`, `sessionStorage`, analytics event, or third-party request. Clear session removes it
from the field.

A green console means the existing read operations worked for this credential and Brain. It does
not prove a write becomes retrievable, citations resolve, data survives a restart, or the backing
engine is a private `SpineStore`. Run the integration doctor for that path.

After identity is verified, the page builds a non-secret setup brief and exact Codex, Claude Code,
Cursor, or generic MCP configuration. Company name changes only the setup label and command; it
does not rewrite ontology or authority. Timezone, locale, intended use, retention intent,
sensitivity, and first source remain in the current tab until copied. They are not presented as
server policy.

`brain disconnect` removes Brain-owned client configuration. Server key revocation remains an
operator action for the design-partner release and takes effect on the next request.
