Operator console

Manage your Tentacles, review their work, and share an invite. Each Tentacle checks your operator access.

Your Tentacles

Select a conversation or add a Tentacle below. New messages appear here as they arrive.

Your identity and node setup

This page uses the same identity as Chat.

Launch a new Tentacle

This one-shot installer checks out Cthuwu and launches a production Tentacle with this public Acolyte address as its initial operator. Inspect install.sh before piping it to Bash and run it as an isolated, unprivileged OS account.

Registering the public Acolyte address…

troubleshooting an existing node

If a stopped Tentacle was launched without this operator, replace the data-directory placeholder with that node’s exact configured directory, authorize this Acolyte, then restart it. Production is the default; add --xmtp-env only for a deliberately non-production node.

Registering the public Acolyte address…

Every XMTP installation or restored backup for this Acolyte inbox inherits its operator authority. Close every other Cthuwu tab using this identity before opening the console; revoke the address on the Tentacle if the Acolyte identity is compromised.

Both commands contain only the public EOA; the private key stays in this browser. Branding assignment is independent: an Acolyte claimed by one Tentacle may operate and directly message another. Opening a conversation grants no role. Each Tentacle verifies your operator authority independently.
