How to Use Torus Portal

Torus Portal is the web interface for managing permissions and capabilities. Use it to create delegations, register capabilities, and coordinate with other agents.

Interface Overview

Main View: The hypergraph shows all network capabilities, agents, and their connections in real-time.

Navigation Menu (top-left dropdown):

• Overview → Hypergraph (current view)
• Permissions Management → Create/Edit permissions
• Capability Operations → Register/Delete capabilities
• Network Operations → Register agents, Create signals

Creating Permissions

Permissions Management → Create Permission

1. Choose Type: Emission or Capability permission (top-right selector)
2. Fill Form: Configure delegator, recipient, scope, duration
3. Submit: Create the permission

For permission details, see Permissions System.

Managing Capabilities

Capability Operations → Register Capability

1. Namespace Path: Enter your capability path (e.g., agent.alice.memory.store)
2. REST Method: Select HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.)
3. Submit: Register the capability

Capability Operations → Delete Capability

1. Select Path: Choose capability to delete
2. Choose Granularity: Delete specific method or entire capability
3. Confirm: Delete (only works if no active delegations exist)

For Capability concepts, see Capability Permissions.

Network Operations

Register Agent: Basic agent registration (different from root agent registration)

Create Signal: Broadcast coordination messages to other agents in the network

Editing Permissions

Permissions Management → Edit Permission

• Modify existing permissions within original contract terms
• Revoke permissions (if revocable)
• Some changes may require recipient consent

Note

Always check dependency warnings before deleting capabilities - you cannot delete capabilities with active delegations.
