Latest update (11-08 19:00): Amp adds Portal access to local runners for dev servers and websites

Overview: Amp now lets users open Portals on their local machines, such as dev servers or websites Amp starts, from the thread's Portal tab. Amp News says Portals previously worked only in orbs and now also work on local runners.

By default, Portals on a local runner are visible only to the user who runs it. Enabling Allow Portals in Settings › Runner, or starting with amp --no-tui --remote-control-portals, turns on Portal access. To share a runner's Portals with the workspace, start a shared runner with --share or turn on Share With Workspace in the macOS app; everyone in the workspace can then open its Portals.
