Fields

agent

Override the default agent for this repo and its setup-wizard suggestions.


Type	`string`
Values	`auto`, `claude`, `codex`, `rovodev`, `opencode`
Default	Inherits from global config

auto resolves to the first supported agent found on PATH in this order: claude, codex, opencode, then acli with rovodev support.

commands.test

Explicit test command. Run via the platform shell - sh -c on POSIX, cmd.exe /c on Windows.


Type	`string`
Default	Empty (agent auto-detects)

When set, the test step runs this exact command and checks the exit code. When empty, the agent detects and runs relevant tests itself.

commands.lint

Explicit lint command. Run via the platform shell - sh -c on POSIX, cmd.exe /c on Windows.


Type	`string`
Default	Empty (agent auto-detects)

Same behavior as commands.test - explicit command uses exit code, empty means agent-detected.

commands.format

Formatter command run before the push step commits agent fixes.


Type	`string`
Default	Empty (no formatter)

ignore_patterns

Paths to exclude from review and documentation checks.


Type	`string[]`
Default	Empty (no ignores)

Pattern matching rules:

Pattern	Rule
`*.generated.go`	No slash - matches by basename
`vendor/**`	Ends with `/**` - matches entire subtree
`some/path/file.go`	Contains a slash - full path glob

auto_fix

Override auto-fix attempt limits for specific steps. Fields not set here inherit from global config.


Type	`object`

Field	Type	Default
`auto_fix.rebase`	`int`	Inherits from global (default `3`)
`auto_fix.review`	`int`	Inherits from global (default `0`)
`auto_fix.test`	`int`	Inherits from global (default `3`)
`auto_fix.document`	`int`	Inherits from global (default `3`)
`auto_fix.lint`	`int`	Inherits from global (default `3`)
`auto_fix.ci`	`int`	Inherits from global (default `3`)

Set to 0 to disable auto-fix for a step (always requires manual approval).

auto_fix.ci covers the CI step’s CI failure and merge-conflict auto-fix attempts.

Legacy alias: auto_fix.babysit.
