What this accomplishes

Open Miton in your browser at 127.0.0.1:7745 — projects, sessions, workflows, apps, usage, and discoverability search.

Miton Studio is a local web console at http://127.0.0.1:7745. Browse projects, sessions, workflows, published apps, usage stats, and available commands from any browser on your machine (or on your LAN when you opt in).

Current availability

This page documents behaviour verified in Miton development builds. Miton is still pre-release and is not publicly downloadable; invited beta users will receive a signed desktop build with automatic updates.

Before you start

  • A Miton development build with an active project.
  • Local network access only when you deliberately enable a LAN surface.

Opening Miton Studio

Go to Settings → Studio → Open Miton Studio, or open:

http://127.0.0.1:7745

By default Studio listens on loopback only. Change the port in Settings → Studio.

The tiles

Tile What it shows
Projects Open projects, last session, blueprint status
Sessions Recent sessions, last-active time, message count
Workflows All workflows, enabled state, last run time
Canvas Published Canvas apps and last-edited time
FunStats Messages, sessions, tool calls, comments posted
Discoverability Commands, skills, and shortcuts in one searchable view

The first five tiles are read-only. Discoverability is interactive. Data refreshes on load and via Refresh.

Write actions (opt-in)

Enable Write actions in the Studio header for:

Action What it does
Run workflow Trigger an immediate run for a selected workflow
Send note Send a text note to the active session transcript

Write actions modify project state from the browser. The toggle turns amber when write mode is on. Responses pass through the privacy gate before delivery.

LAN access (optional)

To open Studio from another device on your network:

  1. Open Settings → Studio → LAN access
  2. Read the consent modal — binding to 0.0.0.0:7745 exposes Studio on your network
  3. Click Enable LAN access

Studio advertises via mDNS as _miton-studio._tcp.local. Disable from Settings → Studio → LAN access → Disable.

Privacy

  • Studio is a local server — no traffic goes to Miton infrastructure
  • Enable LAN access only on trusted networks
  • Responses pass through the privacy gate before delivery

Studio and the local control plane

Studio owns the browser operations API at 127.0.0.1:7745/api/*. It remains a read-mostly console for projects, sessions, workflows, Canvas, and usage.

Agent creation, prompting, aborts, session mutation, and event streaming belong to the separate versioned local control plane at 127.0.0.1:7746/v1/*. The miton daemon process survives desktop quit and requires its own encrypted credential-store bearer on every agent, session, and WebSocket route. Studio’s two limited write actions are an operations-console subset, not an alternative agent API.

See Local control plane for the route and authentication contract.

What success looks like

Open Miton in your browser at 127.0.0.1:7745 — projects, sessions, workflows, apps, usage, and discoverability search. The result remains attached to the active project when you move to another workspace.

Common failures and recovery

Cannot connect to 127.0.0.1:7745 — confirm the Miton desktop app is running. Studio starts with the app.

LAN devices cannot find Studio — some networks block mDNS (UDP port 5353).
