User Settings
Settings apply across your Projects: what your agents know, their limits, your integrations and system health.
Accessing Settings
Click Settings in the main sidebar, or open the More menu (the … button) and choose Settings. Your own settings are in the Personal group: Skills, Agent Limits (administrators find it under Organisation), MCP Connections, Git, Runners, Connect Your Agent and API Keys. System shows platform health. Administrators also see an Organisation group, described in Admin Settings. Opened from a Project, Settings also shows a Project group for that Project.
Personal
Skills
What your agents know before you ask them anything. Both parts are private to your account.
- AGENTS.md is read by every agent before anything else. Write what applies to everything: conventions, preferences, how you like work done. Switch Send AGENTS.md to your agents off to stop sending it.
- Skills are focused notes an agent opens only when it needs them. Each has a name, a description that tells the agent when it applies, and a Markdown body. Only the name and description cost tokens up front, so keep them sharp. Turn Available to agents off to keep a Skill without offering it.
Estimated upfront context shows how much of the context budget AGENTS.md and the Skill descriptions use. Skills are guidance only. They are separate from a Project's Maintain Rules and grant no extra permissions.
Agent Limits
The most a single agent run can cost (Budget Limit) and the most steps it can take (Steps Limit). When an agent reaches a limit it stops and returns what it has done so far.
Git
Connect Artemis to your repositories through the GitHub App or with personal access tokens and SSH keys. See Git Integration.
Runners
Your Artemis Runners, their owner, hardware and status. New Artemis runner sets up another one. See Artemis Runner.
Connect Your Agent
Connect a local coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or GitHub Copilot) to Artemis. The page offers a setup prompt your agent can follow, or manual steps: install the CLI, sign in with an API key, and optionally install the Artemis agent skills. It is also linked from the main sidebar. See Connect Your Agent, Artemis CLI and Artemis Skills.
API Keys
Create and revoke personal API keys for the Artemis CLI and other integrations. A new key is shown only once, so copy it somewhere safe before you close the dialog.
MCP Connections
Connect MCP servers to give every agent session tools from the services you use. See MCP Connections.
System
Health
The live status of the Artemis services and their dependencies.
Users with the right permissions also see Logs and Feature Flags here. See Admin Settings.
