Sample Configuration

# ZeroCode example configuration (config.toml)
#
# This file lists the main keys ZeroCode reads from config.toml, along with default
# behaviors, recommended examples, and concise explanations. 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, profile files, and model providers are examples; remove or edit.
