Terminal and Logs
Terminal basics in ServerDesk
Use the browser terminal for logs, commands, diagnostics, and live operational checks.
What the terminal is for
The terminal is designed for operational tasks such as checking the current directory, validating services, reading logs, running framework commands, and confirming the effect of file changes.
Safer command flow
Begin with read-only commands like `pwd`, `ls`, `cat`, `tail`, or service status checks. This gives you context before you run anything that writes, deletes, restarts, or deploys.
When Robbie helps
Robbie can explain recent terminal output, summarize likely root causes, and suggest safer next debugging steps when the error text is available in the workspace.
