The sidebar is where you manage all your training runs.

​
Adding projects

Telescope monitors the W&B projects you’ve added. Use the Add Project option in the sidebar menu (this is also prompted on first launch). This opens a dialog where you can:
  • Add new projects by entering the W&B path in entity/project format
  • See all known projects and whether they were user-added or discovered from existing runs
  • Remove user-added projects
Added projects persist across server restarts. Telescope will poll these projects for any new telescope-tagged runs.

​
Adding runs

Telescope automatically discovers runs tagged with telescope in your known W&B projects. If you’ve previously removed a run, you can re-add it via the Add Run option in the sidebar menu.

​
Run states

  • Live (green dot) — the run is live and being actively monitored
  • Syncing (blue dot) — data is currently being downloaded from W&B

​
Run actions

Hovering over a run reveals a menu icon that gives you:
  • Force Full Resync — deletes all local data for the run and re-downloads everything from scratch
  • Sync Evals After Training — manually fetch evaluation data after training has completed
  • Remove — removes the run from the sidebar

​
Customization

Each run has an assigned color used in charts. You can change it by clicking the color dot next to the run name. The search bar lets you filter runs by name or ID, or by config values using the config: prefix (e.g. config:learning_rate=5e-7).
