+## UI Flags
+
+### `force-open-backpack`
+**Description:** Automatically opens the Backpack panel once the user lands in the world (after authentication and the loading screen). Presence-only: any value triggers it. Also works when a deep link reaches an already-running client — the Backpack opens immediately (or once loading completes).
+
+**Usage:**
+```bash
+--force-open-backpack
+```
+```
+decentraland://?force-open-backpack=true
+```
