This reference is generated from the same canonical source distributed as cockpit CLI help. See [Cockpit CLI](/en/tools/cockpit/docs/cockpit-cli) for concepts and safe operating guidance.

Open an AGI Cockpit screen in the local application. The result reports `sent` when the renderer is ready or `queued` when it will be delivered after readiness.

```bash
cockpit open settings [appearance|notifications|updates|shortcuts|agents|setup|skills|history|browser-identities]
cockpit open settings agents [--agent default|claude|codex|antigravity|cursor|qoder|grok|cockpit]
cockpit open usage
cockpit open remote-access
cockpit open autorun
cockpit open help          # prints this page; it does not open a screen
```

`cockpit open settings` with no section opens the Settings hub rather than a specific pane. `--agent` is valid only with `cockpit open settings agents`. Autorun opening is idempotent and never toggles an already-open panel closed. This family is local-only and does not accept `--host`.
