Configuration Reference

中文

The main configuration file is config.yaml. Many fields are editable through the Web settings page, but not every field has the same hot-apply behavior.

Core Sections

server:
  host: 0.0.0.0
  port: 8080
  tls_enabled: true
auth:
  password: "change-me"
  session_duration_hours: 12
openai:
  provider: openai
  base_url: https://api.openai.com/v1
  api_key: sk-...
  model: gpt-4.1
agent:
  max_iterations: 12000
  tool_timeout_minutes: 60

Change the default password immediately. Use HTTPS or a trusted reverse proxy in any shared environment.

Hot-Apply Boundaries

POST /api/config/apply coordinates model config, tool description mode, MCP tool registration, knowledge components, robot restarts, and C2 runtime reconciliation. It does not make every field instantly effective.

Section Usually hot-applies Extra action
openai new requests use new model settings running streams keep their current state
agent.max_iterations new tasks existing tasks continue
hitl.tool_whitelist new approval checks pending approvals are not re-decided
knowledge.enabled initializes/updates components scan and index are still required
knowledge.embedding updates retriever/indexer config rebuild index for existing vectors
robots restarts long-lived connections platform callback settings must still match
c2.enabled reconciles C2 runtime verify existing listeners/sessions manually
server.port/tls usually needs process restart listener settings are not ordinary hot state

Fallback Relationships

  • vision.api_key/base_url/provider can inherit from openai.
  • hitl.audit_model can inherit from openai.
  • knowledge.embedding.base_url/api_key can inherit from model settings.
  • rerank config can inherit from embedding/openai.
  • database.knowledge_db_path can be separate or reuse the main DB.

When debugging, inspect both the child config and the fallback parent.

Field Conservative Aggressive Decide by
agent.tool_timeout_minutes 10-30 60+ long scanners
shell_no_output_timeout_seconds 300-600 1200+ quiet tools
knowledge.indexing.batch_size 5-10 20+ embedding API limits
knowledge.indexing.rate_limit_delay_ms 300-800 0-100 429 frequency
retrieval.top_k 3-5 8-12 context budget
similarity_threshold 0.35-0.45 0.5+ recall vs precision
audit.retention_days 15-30 90+ compliance and disk
