📁 Agent Files

Where the agent puts files it creates. Editing files that already exist is unaffected.
To let the agent read or write in other folders without permission prompts, scroll down to 📂 Allowed External Paths.

⚙ Advanced: pattern-based rules

Optional. Override the folder above for files matching a pattern. * matches any chars except /, ** matches across separators. First matching rule wins.

Example: { "match": "lottery-*", "redirect": "C:/AI/Lottery-Toolkit/inbox" }

📱 Telegram Bot

Team Model Catalog

Catalog URL

Refresh TTL hours

Built-in catalog is used unless a team URL is configured.

Extension Activation Policy

Allow executable plugins

Manifest discovery is always safe; executable activation stays blocked unless this policy allows it.

Require permission review

Keep executable plugin activation gated by explicit review.

Allowed plugin names

Executable plugin loading is not implemented in this build.

Media Tools

Vision model checking

Audio command

PDF OCR command

Uploads directory

Audio test file

Use {input} where the uploaded audio path should be placed. Uploads directory accepts an absolute path or a project-relative path; leave empty for the default.

Output Validation

Reasoning contract

Validate final answers

Pairs the prompt with a selected contract, checks the final answer, and records validation trends.

Auto-select best contract

Chooses factual, coding, tool-result, or Oracle Prime per prompt. Turn this off to use the selected override.

Skip validation on low-signal prompts

When auto-select can't detect a strong signal (small talk, "you decide"), skip validation for that turn instead of defaulting to Oracle Prime.

Enable LLM merge phase

Settings persist in .harness/settings.json. The scheduler always honors the kill switch and only runs when the system has been idle for the threshold above.

Automation Scheduler

Enable scheduler

Idle threshold (minutes)

Runs due automation jobs when the system has been idle. Respects the kill switch and active capability grants.

📂 Allowed External Paths

Folders outside the project that file tools (read AND write) and list_files can access. One path per line. Without an entry here, writes to e.g. D:\Brad\Downloads\AI trigger a permission prompt and time out during autonomous runs. Paths are matched literally and recursively (a folder entry covers all subfolders). The Agent Files folder above is added automatically — only add paths the agent legitimately needs.
