CLI

The command is meido. meido help prints the full message. meido version prints the version.

Process

• meido start starts Meido and the web UI, then returns. It stays up until meido stop or a reboot.
• meido start --foreground keeps the process attached to this terminal.
• meido stop stops that process. It also stops the login service if that service is running.

The desk is http://127.0.0.1:10961 unless you change the bind address. If the UI fails to bind, logs are under the runtime logs directory.

Meido reads .env from the current directory, or from MEIDO_CONFIG. See Environment file.

Login service

meido gateway is optional, and only on macOS and Linux. Windows has no gateway. Use meido start there. You do not need the gateway to open the web UI.

The service runs the same start when you log in, and restarts Meido if the process exits. Install captures PATH and HOME from that moment. If you add executables to PATH later, run uninstall and install again.
