# Skill: context-config

> Inspect or edit contextkit/config.json (ledger path lists, L5 high-risk paths, distill params).
> Argument: show [path] | set <path> <value>
Inspect or edit `contextkit/config.json` — the single source of truth for ContextDevKit behaviour.

**<user-specified argument>**

Sections you can tune:
- `ledger.important` / `ledger.irrelevant` / `ledger.registration` — which paths trigger the drift
  nudge, which are ignored, which count as registering a session. **Tune these to your stack** (e.g.
  Python → add `app/`, `tests/`; Go → `cmd/`, `internal/`).
- `l5.highRiskPaths` — paths the Level 5 gate protects (require `/simulate-impact` first).
- `l5.distill.*` — auto-distillation cadence.
- `level` — prefer changing via `/context-level`.

How to act — use the helper script (it coerces types and validates with zod when available):
- Show:  `node contextkit/tools/scripts/context-config.mjs show [dotted.path]`
- Set:   `node contextkit/tools/scripts/context-config.mjs set <dotted.path> <value>`
  (arrays/objects accept JSON, e.g. `set ledger.important '["app/","tests/"]'`).

Run the appropriate command based on `<user-specified argument>` and show the output. The script never writes a
malformed config — if `zod` is installed it validates against `contextkit/runtime/config/schema.mjs`
first. For changing the level, prefer `/context-level`.
