Self-host / production

The official TabBot origin is https://tab-bot.rest. Allowlist that origin in BridgeSwarm when you use the public studio.

You can also serve the Vite build yourself. Express (npm start) is still a static origin. It does not keep bots online, hold tokens, or replace BridgeSwarm.

npm run build
npm start

Local default: http://127.0.0.1:2589. That is not Vite dev (http://127.0.0.1:5173) and not https://tab-bot.rest. IndexedDB does not follow you across origins unless you import a backup.

Env	Default	Meaning
HOST	127.0.0.1	Bind address. 0.0.0.0 listens on all interfaces; allowlist the origin the browser actually uses.
PORT	2589	TCP port.

Example: HOST=127.0.0.1 PORT=4173 npm start → allowlist http://127.0.0.1:4173.

You may instead copy apps/web/dist to any static host with SPA fallback to index.html. You own TLS and XSS for that origin unless it is HoneyPeer’s official site. See Enable Discord and Terms → Official website and self-hosting.
