hi team!

my app uses the slack mcp and does real work in the channel it's connected to. now how do I record that for the submission? because it's just capturing the page it's recording.

can we get an option to submit our own screen recordings? @user @user

@user After creating MCP server to GitHub

can you please elaborate

yes i did with github

@user, after logging into archestra ai with admin credentials we have to change the default credentials ?

Hey all, we’re having a Q&A webinar for the Hackathon participants today.

It starts in 3 hours - we’ll show you hot to build an App in Archestra + answer any questions you have.

Hey! Where is the Apps Gallery repo or form to submit my hackathon project as suggested?

Hi @user

May I ask someone to submit a toy app to test the submission flow? It won't impact the final submission 🙂

For those who have their app using slack mcp.did you encounter the redirect_uri did not match any configured URIs error. @user

We’re starting our Hackathon intro event in 10 minutes! Join here

hi guys. Can I track costs per user in archestra (without making a team or proxy per user 🙂 ) ?

I tried submitting my project and got this

Hi team,

I'm getting an error while installing microsoft__playwright-mcp. Can anyone help me with a solution?

My Windows WSL is broken, so Docker Desktop won't start. Is there a supported way to run Archestra using GitHub Codespaces or another cloud environment for the hackathon?

hi could anyone submit via the “sign in via github” option?

Was there a recording from the webinar today?

Hi, I'm using Archestra with OpenRouter's Free Models Router as mentioned in the webinar. Simple chat works, but when I ask it to generate an application, I get errors like empty response without content or tool calls or incomplete_tool_call. Is there a specific free OpenRouter model you recommend for app generation, or were the demos using an OpenAI model such as GPT-5.x?

Hi! I’m getting ready to submit my Apps Hackathon project and wanted to clarify the video requirements.

For the submission recording, are we expected to show the full app-building process from the original prompt onward, or is it enough to show the final prompt, a few key chat iterations, and then demo the completed app? Do judges need to see the chat logs or exact prompts used?

Is there a recommended video length or maximum duration? Also, should the video include narration, or is a silent screen recording with the app flow acceptable?

A few other questions:

• Should the recording focus mostly on the final app experience, or also explain how the MCP server and live data integration work?

• Do we need to show the submission PR creation process in the recording?

• Are there any specific items that must be visible, such as the MCP servers used, the live-data state, or the generated app prompt?

• How heavily is UI/UX and visual polish weighted compared with technical complexity, usefulness, and depth of MCP integration?

Thank you! I just want to make sure I record and submit everything correctly.

Hi team , i want to add google maps to my app but that mch is not available in the catlog any idea how to add that?

👋 Hi everyone!

Hey all Hackathon App builders 👋

To help you get your submission ready, we’ve added a short video guide on how to record and submit your app - check it out here.

Hey

I wanted to know is it necessary to record the session of prompts and chat with my LLM or just at the end I record the result nad just keep it short and so on like is it a factor considered in judging or the final github thing will be the one judged only

pls lmk so I don't miss the thing out for not recording ._.

Hi

Running Archestra in a GitHub Codespace. Whenever the Codespace

restarts (idle timeout, etc.), the public 3000 URL 404s, even though

the app is healthy internally (curl to localhost:3000 works fine,

container shows healthy). Port re-forwarding and full Codespace

restarts don't fix it — only deleting and recreating the Codespace

does, which is a pain since I lose my GitHub OAuth setup each time.

Anyone seen this / know a fix?

Anyone facing the same issue or know a fix to it?

Hey can I make my community post right now? it's asking for my gallery link.

hey ... wanted to know if I'm the only one facing this issue ... when working on my apps and recording the session the record mid session auto stops like and not save just it stops and resets to 00:00 like idk what's going on but I have been into workign on my stuff and thinking that the thing is recording but nothing was recorded like wow and why is that ... is it an issue in the sys or my side or what's going on exactly anybody faced smth similar ??

It show this when I upload too video and I try several time like 10 to 12 times.

This recording has no description or build prompt yet — add them from the player before sharing.

So I go for manually.. Is this right?

Hi all, apologies if it wasn't clear before 🙏 Recordings that include building steps would receive a higher evaluation than recordings of the final apps only.

Hi,

Sharing two exact errors I hit today building on Archestra: with *Cerebras, a model call failed with Status: 402, Type: unknown_api_error, Message: "402 status code (no body)" — no further detail in the response. With Groq* (Llama 3.3 70B), even in a fresh chat with a short prompt, I got Status: 413, Type: api_payload_too_large_error, Message: "Request body too large: 0.0 MB (limit 70 MB). Use a smaller attachment, or raise ARCHESTRA_API_BODY_LIMIT." — the reported size (0.0 MB) doesn't match the "too large" error. Posting in case others have hit the same and can point to a cause — happy to share full raw JSON for either if useful.

hey .. actually I got another issue .. after stopping the record and saving the prompt and so on when I try to download it it just says it will be exported once it's ready and you download it but nothing got out to be saved on my device and when I try to submit the thing it says sign in to github and once I press it another screen shows that I didn't define the prompt or whatever even tho that I chose the chat messages about the prompt and cut the recording to 30 secs ... is that normal and is it happening with all or I'm missing smth ?

Hi , I am trying to create an app, but the agent says it has scaffolded the app but it doesnt persist the files. Is anyone else facing this issue ?

When i am adding the gmail in mcp registry then i am getting this error any resolution to this ?

Heyy

Hitting persistent rate-limit issues while testing app builds in

Archestra — bounced between OpenRouter (empty responses, then a 402

credits error even though I only asked for a simple test app) and

Gemini free tier (RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED after just ~5 requests). Wondering

if there's a recommended provider/model combo for hackathon use that

has more reasonable free-tier limits for iterative app building, since

retrying a few times during testing burns through quota fast. Any

suggestions?

Hello, is there already a ready-made solution for using ArchestrA in a multi-tenant format? Specifically, we would like a single installation to serve multiple companies within the group. Is this possible yet?

Running into repeated LLM provider issues while building an app in

Archestra — tried OpenRouter (empty responses, then a 402 error saying

it requested 32,768 max_tokens but my free account can only afford

1,600-4,000 depending on the moment), Gemini free tier (rate-limited

after ~5 requests), and OpenAI (empty response with no clear reason).

The OpenRouter 32k max_tokens default seems like it might be worth

lowering for free-tier accounts, or exposing as an easy setting — right

now it silently fails instead of scaling down. Is there a way to

configure max_tokens per-model, or a recommended provider/model combo

that works reliably on free tiers for iterative app building?

Hi

Is archestra.app down right now? Getting repeated Cloudflare 522

"connection timed out" errors when trying to open apps I've built via

the chat — happening consistently across multiple different apps and

LLM providers over the last few hours, so it doesn't seem related to

my setup. App builds succeed in chat, but the preview link always

522s. Anyone else seeing this, or any workaround to view apps while

it's down? so any info helps.

Does the platform support multiple languages?

@user @user Again I faces the same issue?
