ChatGlance: start with your task

ChatGlance generates configuration and supports operations for Glance dashboards; it is not a web server. It produces project, server, website-service, and account pages for an existing Glance instance. Choose your task rather than reading a monolithic CLI tree:

  • One URL, guest and signed-in views

    Projects and access explains public: true, authenticated-columns, and the permission boundary at the same /projects path. A candidate config does not deploy the site.

  • Build a customizable site

    Quickstart begins with a controlled Glance config, synthetic data, and candidate validation; it does not install services or publish files.

  • Refresh existing pages

    Refresh and operations separates read-only manual runs, explicit schedules, data rollback, and service lifecycle actions.

  • Find commands and boundaries

    The segmented CLI reference groups access, projects, refresh, and runtime commands. Architecture and capabilities describes source-versus-runtime ownership.

Required Glance capability

Official Glance v0.8.5 does not implement the public pages and server-side authenticated-columns selection described here. Use a separately reviewed maintained ChatArch/glance binary with explicit archive SHA256 and exact --version (0.2.0 preferred; compatible 0.1.0 when no new Go feature is needed). Do not assume a release checksum file exists. Installing Python does not replace a running server; validate configuration, guest access, login and logout before cutover.

Choose a workflow in Quickstart; deployment and rollback boundaries are covered in Refresh and operations.
