First-time setup

Create the first administrator

Open the address printed by the installer. The default port is 18081, but a fresh install may select another available port. Run linksense address to check the actual address. Use the installer's one-time credential to create the first administrator. Keep the credential out of chats, tickets, and public logs.

Configure a model

Use model settings to add a model channel and save it in the administration UI. Verify network reachability, protocol compatibility, and tool support separately. Configure an embedding model for built-in Knowledge on Full.

Verify your first task

1. Run linksense status and linksense doctor to check deployment health.
2. Send a short message by following the first task guide.
3. Run a task that uses a tool, such as generating and opening a small file. Check its output separately from the chat response.
4. On Full, upload a representative document and check that retrieval cites the right source.

Before exposing the deployment publicly, read operations and the execution boundaries.
