Where every setting lives in the web UI
Generated by Tools/ui_map_build.php — do not edit by hand.
Every setting below can be changed in the browser. Nothing here needs a conf file opened over SSH, and the routes are what to tell someone who asks where a setting is.
Two surfaces show settings, and which one holds a given section depends on what the section is about:
- The Scheduler tab shows the settings belonging to one script. Pick the script, open Config, and its sections appear there.
- The AI tab shows the AI sections together under Settings → Configuration.
Both write through the same guarded path: the change is validated, the conf is backed up, the result is syntax-checked and read back, and a bad write is rolled back.
A setting is edited by finding its row and changing the control described below. The Save button sends only what was actually changed.
When someone asks where a setting is, answer with the route. Every setting here has a control in the browser, so the conf file it lands in is background rather than an instruction — telling someone to edit the file by hand is the wrong answer when a switch exists, and it is also the riskier one. The exception is the list at the very bottom: those settings genuinely have no control, and saying so is the right answer.

| Setting | Control | Where | What it does |

AI_MEMORY_LEARN_ENABLED |
a switch | in this section | Costs nothing while off: the instruction that asks for a candidate is only added to the prompt when this is true, so a disabled feature is genuinely absent rather than merely ignored. |
AI_MEMORY_LEARN_AUTO_ACCEPT |
a switch | in this section | Writes accepted candidates without asking. Cannot outrank its parent — with proposing off this does nothing. Leave it false until the proposals have proven good for a while. |

AI_MEMORY_LEARNED_MAX_CHARS |

a switch | in this section | AI_REPAIR_AUTOFIX_ENABLED is what allows a value to be written unattended, and only ever a value a probe has answered on.

AI_FINDING_RETAIN_DAYS |
a number box | in this section | Misconfigurations found in this installation, as opposed to defects in Varaverk — those go to ai_bugs. A finding is open until the configuration is right, and closes itself when the probe that proved the fault starts passing. Closed ones are kept for a while, because "this happened before and here is what fixed it" is worth more than the disk. Open findings are never pruned: an unresolved probl… |
AI_PROBE_TIMEOUT |
a number box, in seconds | in this section | Seconds a single probe may take. Nothing is written to conf that has not answered a probe, so this is the budget for proving a candidate — kept short because a sweep may try several, and an address worth switching to answers quickly or is not worth switching to. |
AI_REPAIR_NOTIFY_ENABLED |
a switch | in this section | On by default, unlike the two switches above. Those gate reading and writing, which are things to be trusted first. This gates telling someone, which is the reason for having looked. |

AI_REPAIR_SYSLOG_ENABLED |

AI_INDEX_DB |
a text box | in this section | Only git-tracked files are ever indexed. Configurations/, State_Files/ and data/ are gitignored, which is what makes it structurally impossible for a credential to reach the index: the files holding them were never in the repo. Do not "improve" this to a filesystem walk — an embedded secret cannot be rotated out of a vector. |

AI_TOKEN_DB |
a text box | in this section | Retention is by row count rather than age: pruning is considered only when the file passes a size threshold, so an ordinary turn costs one stat() and an append. |
AI_TOKEN_RETAIN_ROWS |
a number box | in this section | oldest rows dropped past this — years of ordinary use |
AI_TOKEN_SYNC_ENABLED |
a switch | in this section | AI/ai_token_sync.sh pulls each partner's ledger into the tmpfs cache the tab reads, so the fleet total is a fleet total. Same trick conf_sync.sh uses for partner confs, minus the push: nothing here is needed by anyone else, so the reader fetches its own data and controls its own freshness.

Settings deliberately kept out of the UI
These have no control on purpose. They hold the machine's identity and the roots everything else is derived from, and a text box beside a Save button is the wrong shape for a value that decides whether the server recognises itself on next boot.
If one is asked about, give the reason and say it is edited in the conf file directly. Do not describe a route — there is none, and that is the point.
- Cache Roots (
master.conf) —VV_CACHE_ROOT,VV_CACHE_DIR,CONF_RAM_CACHE_DIR,ARR_CACHE_DIR,AI_TOKEN_CACHE_DIR,AI_JOB_DIR,DOCKER_JOB_DIR
The tmpfs half. These must never point at flash, and nothing in a form conveys that. - GIT / REPO (
master.conf) —GITEA_CONTAINER,GITEA_REPO_PATH,GITEA_DOMAIN,TARGET_DIR,GITEA_SSH_KEY,SSH_PORT,GITEA_HTTP_PORT
Where the plugin updates itself from. Wrong here means the next pull is the last one. - HOST IDENTITIES (
master.conf) —HOST1,HOST2
HOST1 and HOST2 are what detect_hosts() matches the local hostname against. Editing one here would change which machine this believes it is. - SHARED HOST CONFIGURATION (
master.conf) —DATA_DIR,DB_DIR,STATE_DIR,AI_DATA_DIR,CACHE_BACKUP_DIR,LOG_ARCHIVE_DIR,BACKUP_DIR,CONF_BACKUP_DIR,PERSISTENT_CONF_CACHE,ARR_CACHE_BACKUP_DIR
DATA_DIR is the single on-disk root — move it and the whole tree follows, including the state the running scripts are holding open. - State Files (
master.conf) —SYS_WATCHDOG_STATE_FILE,DOCKER_WATCHDOG_FAILED_FILE,DOCKER_WATCHDOG_INTENTIONAL_FILE,SYS_WATCHDOG_REBOOT_LOG,SYS_WATCHDOG_OOM_FILE
Paths to live state databases, derived from STATE_DIR. Repointing one orphans the state a watchdog is mid-way through writing.
