Configuration

Configuration ⌁

Zinc config is a small ref table.

config(key, value)

Zinc reads:

.zinc/config.yaml
~/.zinc/config.yaml

It does not interpret the YAML as native behavior.

◌ Example

defaults:
  run: openai-responses.software.responses

defaults.run is an opaque package ref. Zinc does not open it and decide what model, provider, shell, mode, or policy it means. Package software and package settings decide meaning.

✦ Package-owned settings

openai-responses.settings.models
unix-bash.settings.defaults
unix-bash.settings.policy
powershell.settings.defaults
powershell.settings.policy

These live in packages unless a human explicitly copies or references them.

▣ Inspect

zn inspect zinc://config
zn read zinc://config/defaults.run

zn config shows Zinc-maintained config facts. It does not load package-specific behavior.
