Environment variables
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
CHAP_PARTICIPANTOptional | The participant every call is made as. Defaults to agent:assistant, the agent a create-chap-app mcp-gate project joins. A call naming anyone else is refused, and so is a human: URI here, since a person decides in a desk. |
CHAP_DB_PATHOptional | Path to a SQLite file; a leading ~ is the home directory. Without it, and without --url, the coordinator runs in memory and workspaces are lost when the client restarts. |
CHAP_PROFILESOptional | Comma-separated CHAP profiles enabled on new workspaces. Defaults to Core plus review, whisper, deliberation, handoff, control, routing, modes and audit-scitt. |
