# Settings pages

Open Settings from the sidebar. Each page owns one area.

## Account

The Account page is the first page. It controls your Admiral account. The Providers page controls the agent providers.

The page has four blocks:

- **Account.** Signed out, it shows what an account gives you, with **Sign in** and **Create account**. An account is optional. Signed in, it shows your email, your workspace, and **Sign out**. Select your name in the sidebar footer to open this page. When sync is not yet on for this device, it shows **Finish sync setup**. A new account shows **Create workspace**.
- **Profile.** Signed in, you can change your name and your email address, and ask for a password reset. The reset link goes to your email address. After an email change, sign in with the new address. An address that another account uses is refused.
- **Tester program.** Only active testers see this block. It has the **Usage data** and **Crash reports** switches, the policy version and date, **View what is sent**, **Delete my data**, and **Send feedback**. See [The tester program](../start/tester-program.md).
- **Updates.** The update channel, `stable` or `beta`, and the installed version.

Sign-in and sign-out restart the engine in the new profile. The Account page uses the same steps as the sidebar account menu. In the Development profile, the account actions are off.

## Providers

The Providers page is the single page for agent sign-in, installation, enablement, and usage:

- **Provider cards.** One card per provider. Sign in from the card, and forget the sign-in from the same place.
- **Runtime setup.** Admiral shows setup status for the agents it manages, with a retry when setup is incomplete.
- **Enablement.** Turn agents on or off for the composer pickers.
- **Usage meters.** Providers that report limits show a usage meter. The meter warns at 80 percent and again at 95 percent, and it shows the reset time.
- **Target device.** Pick which device an action applies to when more than one is online.

## Agents

The switch for legacy agents: Codex, Cursor, Grok, Hermes, Pi, and Devin. Legacy agents are off by default. Sessions from legacy agents stay readable either way.

## Shortcuts

Every keyboard shortcut is rebindable:

- Click a row and press the new keys.
- Admiral detects conflicts and tells you before it saves.
- Reset any row to its default.

See [Keyboard shortcuts](keyboard-shortcuts.md) for the defaults.

## Connections

How Admiral connects to other tooling:

- The injected `admiral` tools that agents receive, with a per-device off switch. See [Run child agents](../guides/run-child-agents.md).
- MCP server definitions that Admiral imported from your agent configurations, with a report of what came from where.

## Devices

Your signed-in devices, their state, and their names.

## Archived sessions

Archived sessions are listed here. Nothing in the archive is deleted; restore a session to the sidebar from this page.
