Configuration

Every configuration key, its values and what it does.

Configuration

Settings live in .enigma.json (global ~/.enigma.json, overridden by a repo-local one). Set them with enigma config <key> <value>, the interactive menu (enigma config), or the dashboard. Add -g / -l to target global or local.

KeyValuesDefaultWhat it does
commit-emojion / offonLeading gitmoji on commit subjects.
output-styleoff / lite / full / ultraoffCompress the agent’s chat prose (memory-file section; restart the agent).
minimal-codeoff / lite / full / ultrafullAnti-overengineering intensity for code the agent writes.
permission-bypasson / offonSkip the agent’s approval prompts (a deliberate security downgrade).
auto-syncon / offonRefresh deployed skills when launching a tool through enigma.
remote-skillson / offonFetch skills newer than the bundled set from GitHub.
skill-update-policyoverwrite / keepoverwriteOn update, replace a skill you edited locally, or keep your edits.
usage-apion / offoffFetch the real usage %/reset from Anthropic via your local Claude Code login.
parallel-subagentson / offoffAllow the agent to fan out sub-agents in parallel.
auto-linton / offoffLint edited files via a post-write hook.
compresson / offoffRegister the context-compression MCP server in your agents.
dashboardoff / on-demand / alwaysoffLocal management dashboard mode.
dashboard-port<0-65535>0Preferred dashboard port (0 = auto: 80, then 24282). Restart the dashboard to apply.
proxyon / offoffRoute enigma claude through a local measuring proxy.
prompt-secret-guardon / offoffScan outgoing prompts for secrets (via the proxy).
prompt-secret-moderedact / rejectredactWhat the guard does on a detected secret.
usage-statson / offoffRead your Claude Code transcripts for real token usage and cost.
recallon / offoffBuild a searchable local memory of your coding sessions from transcripts; exposed to agents over MCP.
recall-llmon / offoffEnrich recall observations with an LLM via your local Claude login (Claude Code only; uses a little quota).
gateon / offoffEnable the experimental AI quality gate (the /gate command and enigma gate). When on, agents auto-drive the gate after finishing work on a feature branch - no need to ask or run enigma gate init; opt out per project with gate: false in that repo’s .enigma.json. See Quality gate.
gh-telemetryenabled / disableddisabledGitHub CLI usage analytics.
token-price<usd>0$ per 1M input tokens for dashboard money estimates (0 = per-source defaults).
token-speed<tok/s>0Prefill speed for dashboard time estimates (0 = default).

/improve

A slash command deployed to every agent (it runs inside the agent, not the CLI). Two modes: implement edits a focused area, advisor is read-only and writes self-contained plans for another agent to execute.

/improve ui          # implement: ui | security | performance | seo | refactor
/improve audit       # advisor (read-only): audit | quick | deep | branch | next | plan ...
