Dev and cluster
Connected nodes, last seen, desks on the pool, and join tokens to reconnect a host.
Lifecycle developers open Dev (code icon in the top bar, footer Dev, marketing Dev when signed in as a developer, or /dev). Customer dual IT+HR accounts do not unlock Dev. Connected nodes lists each Setup.exe host: name, hostname, node id, status (available / busy / down), last seen, uptime, and instance count. Desks lists instances on the pool.
Reconnect a node
Keep .data/cluster/node.json on that host so the same id returns. Mint join token, then Copy token. Set LIFECYCLE_CONTROL_URL to this control plane (usually https://lifecycle.lol), and store the token in Windows Credential Manager as Lifecycle/cluster_join (or LIFECYCLE_JOIN_TOKEN). Restart Lifecycle (Tray → Start Services after Safe Shutdown). Never put the token in a URL. Refresh on Dev until the node shows Connected again.
Licenses and billing
Dev shows trial, subscriber, and pirate instance heartbeats plus paid subscriptions when this control plane is the billing host. Customers buy On-prem, Cloud, or On-prem + Cloud on lifecycle.lol/pricing (Stripe or PayPal when those keys are configured).
