Settings

The Settings area collects the personal controls that apply to you as a user rather than to a single resource. You reach it from the Settings section of the left sidebar, which expands into a submenu listing the areas below. Settings is where you manage how applications authenticate as you, what the system is allowed to remember about you, and the standing decisions that govern tool calls in your conversations.

SettingsSnapshot of Protean AI Platform

Settings holds three areas:

  • API Keys: tokens that let an application call the Protean API on your behalf. You generate them here so external tools and scripts can act as you, and you revoke them here when an application no longer needs access or a token may have leaked, which matters because each token carries your full API access.
  • Preferences: the memory controls that decide what information the system is allowed to extract from your conversations. You toggle each fact type on or off here, which lets you opt out of capturing details you would rather not have remembered, so you stay in control of what Protean learns about you over time.
  • Approval Decisions: the saved approvals and denials that govern whether an agent may run a tool without prompting you again. You review, edit, and remove them here, which is how you manage the standing rules created from the in-conversation tool call approval prompts, so trusted tools run smoothly and risky ones keep asking.
note

Which tabs you see depends on your permissions. The API Keys tab appears only if you are allowed to create API keys, and the Memory Preferences tab appears only if you are allowed to update memory settings. The Approval Decisions tab is always available.

Each tab keeps its place in the address bar, so you can link straight to a tab. The API Keys tab is the default, with Memory Preferences and Approval Decisions as the other two.
