# Mobile · Terminals

Pseudo-terminals for the mobile app, including the connect endpoint the terminal view attaches to.

Playground

Send these requests to your own running server. Values stay in this browser.

Not connected

Base URL  Directory _optional_  Bearer token _optional_ 

 

How this works

Start a server with `nikcli serve --hostname 127.0.0.1 --port 4096`. Requests go straight from this page to that address — the browser allows it because loopback counts as a secure origin, and the server allows it because `nikcli-ai.dev` is in its CORS allowlist.

To try things without touching your real sessions or config, start the server with `NIKCLI_TEST_HOME` pointed at a throwaway directory — see [the guided tour](/docs/guides/api-tour).

## Operations

6 endpoints, generated from the server's own [OpenAPI document](/docs/api). Every path also accepts the `directory` and `workspace` query parameters that select which instance handles the request.
