The CLI gracefully closes the browser, finalizes any already-detected issues, and saves a partial report. Tasks that had not yet started are marked as cancelled.

What happens when a run is stopped

​
Stopping from the dashboard

You can also stop a run from the QAOS Dashboard:
  1. Navigate to Runs and find the in-progress run
  2. Click the ••• menu on the run row
  3. Select Stop Run
This sends a stop signal to the server, which closes the active browser session and finalizes the partial report.

​
What is NOT stopped by stopping a run

Stopping a run only terminates the active browser session and agent processing. It does not:
  • Delete the partial report
  • Affect other runs (if multiple are queued)
  • Revoke your authentication

​
After stopping

Partial reports are available immediately in the dashboard. If you want to run the full audit, simply start a new run with the same config: 
npx qaos run --config ./qaos-config.json
