Example Configuration
Annotated sample config.toml for Hanzo Dev.
Use this example configuration as a starting point. For an explanation of each field, see Configuration. Copy the snippet below to ~/.hanzo/config.toml and adjust values as needed.
# Hanzo Dev example configuration (config.toml)
#
# This file lists all keys read from config.toml, their default values,
# and concise explanations. Values here mirror the effective defaults
# compiled into the CLI. Adjust as needed.
#
# Notes
# - Root keys must appear before tables in TOML.
# - Optional keys that default to "unset" are shown commented out with notes.
# - MCP servers, profiles, and model providers are examples; remove or edit.
