Settings Workspace

The Settings workspace at /settings is the dashboard’s routed configuration surface. On desktop it uses a split view: form-based controls on the left, a live read-only snapshot of ~/.ccs/config.yaml on the right.

Access

ccs config
# Sidebar -> System -> Settings
# Direct route -> /settings

Current Layout

Desktop

  • Left panel: tabbed configuration sections
  • Right panel: config.yaml viewer with copy and refresh actions
  • Resize handle: lets you rebalance forms vs raw config

Mobile

The page collapses into a stacked layout. The raw config.yaml viewer drops behind the active section so the forms stay usable on narrow screens.

Raw Config Pane

The right-hand pane is a viewer, not a second editor:
  • shows the current ~/.ccs/config.yaml
  • supports copy and refresh actions
  • helps you verify what the forms actually persisted
If the file does not exist yet, the workspace points you back to:
ccs migrate

Operational Notes

  • Section content is lazy-loaded, so the active tab can recover independently if one section fails
  • Structured settings stay in the form controls; raw YAML remains read-only in this workspace
  • The page is route-aware, so you can bookmark /settings directly inside the current dashboard session

When To Use This Page

Use the Settings workspace when the change belongs to shared CCS behavior:
  • search and image-analysis tooling
  • announcement and support channels
  • global env defaults
  • proxy topology
  • dashboard auth
  • backup hygiene
Use the profile workspaces instead when the change is specific to one provider or one compatible CLI.
