Account and sign-in

Your detachbox account holds your Compute, the accounts your agents run on and your assistants. Lock it with a passkey and two-factor sign-in, see every signed-in device, and get an email for every security change. Everything here lives under Settings, or press G then S.

Continue with Google signs you in with your Google account.
Continue with email asks for your password next, and for the 6-digit code from your authenticator app if two-factor sign-in is on.
Sign in with a passkey: type your email, then use Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello or a security key instead of the password.

Forgot the password? Pick Forgot password?, and an email brings a link to set a new one. The link works for an hour. Setting a new password signs your account out on every device and disconnects every assistant.

Add a passkey

Open Settings → Sign-in and security → Passkeys.
Pick Add passkey and follow the browser's prompts.

Each passkey shows when it was added and last used. Delete one with its trash button; that device then stops signing you in.

Under Two-factor sign-in, pick Turn on.
Scan the QR code with Google Authenticator, 1Password, Authy or any TOTP app, or pick Copy key and enter it by hand.
Type the 6 digits from the app and pick Turn on two-factor.

From then on the password alone no longer opens your account. Turn off switches it off again.

Confirm it's you

Passkeys and two-factor sign-in change only after you prove it's you: Confirm it's you asks for your password, an authenticator code, a passkey or a Google sign-in. One confirmation covers the next 5 minutes.

Change your password

Under Password, pick Change password, type the current one and the new one twice, at least 8 characters. Every other device is signed out, and every assistant and MCP key is disconnected. Google and passkey sign-in do not use the password.

See your signed-in devices

Signed-in devices lists every browser signed in to your account, with its sign-in and last-seen times. Pick Sign out next to one to end it there, or Sign out other devices to keep only this one. Signing out the other devices also disconnects every assistant and MCP key.

Security emails

An email tells you when a passkey is added or removed, when two-factor sign-in is turned on or off, when an assistant connects and when an MCP key is created. If you receive one you did not expect, change your password.

Pick your language and theme

Under Settings → Appearance:

Language: English, Español, Português, Français, Deutsch or Русский. It applies at once, and your emails and notifications switch to it too.
Theme: System, Light or Dark, for this browser. Terminal stays dark keeps the terminal dark on the light theme.

The account menu and the ⌘K command menu switch both as well.

Let pages the agent opens show up by themselves

Once you have a Compute, Settings has a Terminal panel. Under Pages the agent opens, switch on Open previews in this browser by themselves, and every preview the agent opens arrives in a new tab at once. When switched off, each preview waits for your click in the terminal. A sign-in or a report on another site opens by itself once you always allow its host from the terminal's prompt; the same panel lists those hosts, and removing one makes its pages ask again. The choice holds for your Compute in this browser; The browser terminal shows the prompt behind it.

Your picture in the corner opens the account menu: Settings, Keyboard shortcuts, Language, Theme and Sign out.

Your name and photo

The top of Settings shows your email, your name and when you joined. Pick Change avatar to upload a JPEG, PNG or WebP image under 200 KB.

Close your account

Delete your Compute yourself from the Compute page. To close the account itself, write to support@detachbox.com from the address you signed up with.
