Open Relay (aka oly) is a tool for supervising long-running CLI and AI agent sessions via a slick web UI—think remote control without the hassle.

How do you paste files into Open Relay's attach panel?

Just copy a desktop file or screenshot to clipboard, open the attach panel in a session, and hit paste (Ctrl+V). It detects, prioritizes real files, and uploads smoothly.

Will Open Relay replace my current CLI tools?

Not outright—but it'll make jumping in from web feel native, especially for agent-heavy workflows. Test it; the paste alone might hook you.
