Sign in

Desktop sign-in opens the system browser, completes Google authentication through Better Auth, then returns a one-time desktop exchange to OpenSS. The resulting account token is stored using the desktop credential flow rather than browser local storage.

Account view

  • Current plan and subscription state.
  • Hosted AI units used, limit and remaining allowance.
  • Purchased AI credits.
  • Cancellation or renewal date where available.
  • Payment portal access only when the backend reports that billing management is available.

Refresh and sign out

OpenSS refreshes its account snapshot when the app regains focus and after checkout. Sign out removes the current Mac session. Global session revocation belongs in active-session management, not the normal sign-out action.
