Configuration Guide

This guide lists the effective/default configuration values exposed by the current SNID SAGE build and points to the current GUI workflows.

Access

  • GUI: the main SNID SAGE window has a Settings dialog, but not a separate Configuration panel
  • User Templates Folder: snid-sage-templates → Change User Folder
  • CLI: sage config show|get

Categories (implemented)

  • Analysis: redshift/age bounds, lapmin, metric threshold, wavelength tolerance, output limits
  • Processing: smoothing, flattening, masks (A-band, skylines), apodization
  • Display: theme, plot style/DPI, grid/markers
  • Templates: paths.templates_dir
  • LLM: enable, provider, model_name, api_key, max_tokens, temperature

Examples

sage config show
sage config get paths.templates_dir
sage config get analysis.lapmin

Template Location Override

If you want to override where the managed built-in templates bank lives, set the SNID_SAGE_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable before running SNID SAGE.

export SNID_SAGE_TEMPLATE_DIR=/path/to/templates_root

$env:SNID_SAGE_TEMPLATE_DIR = "C:\path\to\templates_root"

With this override: - built-in templates are stored/read from SNID_SAGE_TEMPLATE_DIR - the default User Templates folder becomes the sibling user_templates directory next to it - example: /path/to/templates_root -> /path/to/user_templates

Notes

  • The User Templates Folder is managed separately by the Template Manager GUI
  • Unlisted categories are experimental or not available in this release
