# Layout and navigation

> The sidebar, top bar, and command palette, and where each part of Termique lives.

After you unlock Termique, you land on the **Hosts** page. The window has three parts: the sidebar on the left, a thin top bar, and the content panel.

## Sidebar

The sidebar holds your open sessions, your hosts, and the tools. From top to bottom:

* **Search**: opens the command palette.
* **All hosts**: opens the [Hosts](https://docs.termique.app/hosts.md) page. The number is your host count.
* **Sessions**: your open terminal sessions and investigations. Click **+** to open a local shell. Hover a session and click the close button to end it.
* **Hosts**: your groups shown as folders, followed by hosts that are in no group. Click a folder to open the [group](https://docs.termique.app/groups.md), or click a host to open its page. Use the buttons next to the heading to add a **New group** or a **New host**.
* **Tools**: **Snippets**, **SSH keys**, **Port forwards**, **Monitoring**, **Command logs**, **Investigations**, and **Teams**. On Free, **Command logs** carries a **Pro** badge and opens an upgrade prompt.

Each host shows a status dot:

| Dot | Meaning |
| - | - |
| Green | Connected |
| Gray | Not connected |
| Amber | Monitoring agent offline |

A link icon marks a host shared with you. A monitor icon marks a host kept only on this computer.

To collapse the sidebar to an icon rail, click **Hide sidebar** next to the logo. Click **Show sidebar** to expand it again.

## Top bar

The top bar shows:

* **Sync status**: whether your data is synced. If sync fails, click **Retry**.
* **Notifications**: pending share invites. A red dot means an invite is waiting. Accept or decline it from the panel.
* **Account menu**: your avatar. It shows your plan (**Free** or **Pro**) and holds a light and dark **Theme** switch, **Settings**, **About**, **Report bug**, **Lock screen**, and **Sign out**.

> [!TIP]
>
> To step away, use **Lock screen**. It locks the vault and keeps your local data. **Sign out** disconnects live sessions and clears this device's local database.

## Command palette

Press `⌘K` on macOS or `Ctrl+K` on Windows and Linux, or click **Search** in the sidebar. The palette searches hosts, sessions, pages, actions, and keyboard shortcuts. Select a host to connect to it.

## Web dashboard

Billing, devices, and extra share recipients are managed in the web dashboard at [termique.app/dashboard](https://termique.app/dashboard), not in the desktop app. Links such as **Manage billing** and **Manage devices** open it in your browser. See [Plans and billing](https://docs.termique.app/plans.md).
