Console overview

The console (grid-ui) is the browser control surface for Grid. It talks only to grid-core (VITE_GRID_API_URL).

Workspace context​

The shell header selects:

  • Project — from discovered desired-state projects / inventory
  • Environment — development, staging, production, or custom slugs

Most lists filter to that pair. Unit counts exclude stale/destroyed and console-hidden offerings.

Primary areas​

AreaRoutePurpose

Infrastructure/infrastructureInventory, detail, sync panel, plan/apply/destroy

Product flags can hide APM, Logging, and the Kubernetes workloads engine UI — see Feature flags.

Sources (GitOps settings)​

Desired-state remote and module bank are configured under Admin → Sources (legacy /gitops redirects here). “GitOps” in the product name for in-cluster CD stays separate from Sources.

Auth​

Local accounts + session cookies/tokens. Bootstrap superadmin from GRID_AUTH_ADMIN_*. Details: RBAC.
