Admin

What owners and admins manage, and where each setting lives.

Admin in the sidebar is for the owner and admins. It opens on Home, which lists what needs attention first.

#Your first week

  1. Set permissions

    Assign folders to groups and check access with two test accounts. Read about permissions.

  2. Connect the AI

    The owner connects an authorized Claude or OpenAI account in AI connections. AI engines › Providers shows whether each engine is ready.

    AI engines › Providers
  3. Invite the team

    Start with a small pilot group, then confirm roles and folder access.

  4. Add a first skill

    Copy a starter skill and review its result against the sources. Read about skills.

  5. Make a first backup

    Back up, then practise a restore with IT. Read about backups.

#What admins cannot do

  • Read other people's chats. The activity log shows which files the AI read, not the conversation.
  • See personal folders or personal skills in users/<id>/.
  • Use a team MCP connection, unless a rule names them.
Warning

People who operate the server, its OS or its storage can read stored files and chats. In hosted plans, that includes Trina's operators.

#AI engines

Admin › AI engines has two tabs.

TabWhat it holds
ProvidersOne row per engine (Claude Code, Codex, API): its state, sign-in mode, models and last check, with ↻ to check again and an on/off switch.
Team provider settingsThe default engine and model, answers at the same time, who may pick the engine, switching to Codex at Claude's limit, and usage limits.

Click an engine's name to open its details: what is missing and how to fix it, every model, and for the owner the API engine form.

Team provider settings

Save and Cancel appear in a section only after you change something in it.

Note

The two tabs are new in 0.4.0. In 0.3.0 and earlier, everything is on one AI engines page.

#Activity log

Admin › Activity log lists sign-ins, admin actions, file changes and AI tool use, grouped by day. The filters stay at the top while you scroll. It never shows chat content.

#System

Admin › System has backups, diagnostics and updates. Diagnostics shows problems such as a missing engine, a failed check or disabled automatic updates.
