Reference

Use these pages when you need names, defaults, accepted values, response behavior, or release-specific limits.

  • CLI reference — command syntax, options, the access token, Unix socket mode, cache budget, filters, startup output, timeout, and exits.
  • Python reference — view() parameters, handles, exceptions, binary resolution, and VS Code routing.
  • VS Code and Cursor reference — commands, settings, custom editor, bundled platforms, theme, and routing rule.
  • Annotation CSV reference — columns, coordinates, frame scope, validation transaction, and export.
  • Troubleshooting — symptom-led fixes for install, startup, the access token, Unix sockets, discovery, decode, SSH, VS Code, and annotations.
  • v0.4.1 release notes — compressed frames held to their header in 0.4.1, and from 0.4.0 the access token on every API request, the private Unix socket, the cache budget, migration for API scripts, and known limits.
  • Documentation source — exact repository commit represented by this site.
  • Licensing and attribution — reuse terms for prose, examples, site code, and marks.

The viewer’s HTTP protocol is an internal, unsupported implementation surface that requires the session’s access token. Its retained entry page directs source maintainers to debugging details under Contributing.
