Is Mel working right now?
This page asks Mel's hosted AI service one question and prints the answer with the time it was asked. That is a reading taken at a moment, not an uptime report — we keep no availability history, so we publish none.
The Mel relay is the hosted service the Mel agent sends model calls through. It answered our check in 35 ms at Oct 10, 2026, 00:39 UTC.
One check, at most once a minute, and only while someone is reading this page. Nothing here is watching between your visits.
What the download service is publishing right now. Download or read what changed.
That is the only claim this page can honestly make about itself. It is served by the same host as the rest of openmel.dev, so if that host has an outage this page goes down with it and cannot report it.
Latest changes
- Plans are now editable. When Mel proposes a plan, change, add or remove steps in the plan panel, then approve it as you edited it — or hand it to a team of agents with “Use orchestration”. Hide or show the panel with Ctrl+Alt+P, and save a plan as a Markdown file or to Mel Drive.
- Keyboard shortcuts can be changed in Settings ▸ Keyboard shortcuts. On Windows and Linux, closing a session is now Ctrl+Shift+W, so Ctrl+W deletes a word in the terminal again; Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+9 switch tabs. On a Mac, Mel's main shortcuts stay as they were.
- Your conversations open in a side panel with search: Ctrl+Shift+Y (⌃⇧Y on a Mac).
- A message you send while Mel is thinking joins the conversation right away. Commands and slash commands still wait for the current step to finish.
- Start a message with “& ” to run it as a task in the cloud — Mel asks you to confirm first.
- Tools ▸ Preview now shows your running local page live: click, scroll and type in it. It needs Chrome or Edge installed; without one, Preview shows a screenshot as before.
- The agent's questions show as a card with numbered options and a recommended choice, and each answer can show its token usage.
Before that: v0.1.50, v0.1.49. Every release.
What this page does not tell you
- No uptime percentage, and no history. We don't collect a public availability series, so there is no honest number to put here. A figure with decimals that nothing measured is worse than silence.
- No incident log. When something goes wrong we write it up in the changelog of the release that fixes it, in plain words, including the releases that did harm.
- Nothing about Mel on your machine. The terminal, your command blocks, and any CLI coding agent you run inside Mel execute locally and never touch the service checked above. A bad reading here does not stop them; only the Mel agent's hosted models depend on it.
- Nothing you should read as an alert. This is a page you visit, not a monitor that watches for you. If Mel is failing for you, tell us — that still reaches a person faster than this page will.
