The console
On Tares Cloud the console is your workspace’s address; on your local machine it is http://127.0.0.1:8787 . The menu holds Home, Services, Incidents, Timeline, Runbooks and memory and, at the bottom, Settings.
Home
Home answers: is anything broken, and is anybody watching? It refreshes every 30 seconds.
- Get started shows on a new Tares: add a model, connect logs or metrics, see your services, turn on watching, choose the Slack channel, and cause a test incident on the demo. Hide this list puts it away, and Show it again brings it back.
- A headline, and whether anybody is watching. When nobody is, it says why and since when.
- Open incidents, each with its chart and next step, and I’m on it and Resolve.
- What the watcher raised that still waits for your verdict.
- The services on watch, each with one state, and who is on watch.
- The blind spots.

Incidents
Open incidents, the ones someone is on, and the latest resolved. Incidents
Timeline
What happened to your services, newest first. Timeline
Runbooks and memory
What the investigator knows about each service. Runbooks and memory

Watching explains each watching and investigating setting. A key that can only read sees the pages but not Settings.
