The Default environment
If you don't have an environment yet, onboarding sets up the Default environment. How depends on where you onboard:
- CLI flows such as
/web-setup: create Default for you - Web onboarding on Pro and Max: creates Default for you
- Web onboarding on Team and Enterprise: shows a Create your first cloud environment form unless an Owner has turned on Quick web setup; keep the form's defaults and click Create & finish to get the same Default environment
Default carries no configuration of its own:
- Trusted network access: sessions reach package registries and other allowlisted domains, and nothing else through the session's network.
- No other configuration: Default defines no environment variables or setup script, so sessions start with just the pre-installed tools.
With only Default available, every session runs in it. When you have more than one environment, sessions choose one per surface:
- On the web, the Desktop app, and the mobile app, sessions use the environment shown in the selector. An organization default set by an Owner fills the selection when you haven't picked one.
