Init wizard and config template

This page turns setup docs into executable onboarding.

Why this page exists

1. Reduce first-run drift across machines.
2. Shorten time-to-value.
3. Keep config guidance close to the config itself.

Run the wizard

Interactive:

bash scripts/sharelife-init-wizard --output config.generated.yaml

Non-interactive defaults:

bash scripts/sharelife-init-wizard --yes --output config.generated.yaml

Common flags:

1. --provider openai|claude|deepseek
2. --api-key <value>
3. --preset standard_qa|sharelife_companion|research_safe
4. --webui-auth true|false
5. --allow-anonymous-member true|false
6. --anonymous-member-user-id <value>
7. --anonymous-member-allowlist "POST /api/trial,GET /api/trial/status,..."
8. --enable-plugin-install-exec true|false
9. --print-only

Use the config template

config.template.yaml is the baseline reference.

It includes:

1. provider/model blocks
2. WebUI auth and rate-limit settings
3. profile-pack signing/encryption fields
4. plugin-install guardrails (default off, allowlist, timeout)
5. anonymous member mode defaults and endpoint allowlist override fields

Team workflow that works

1. Keep config.template.yaml in git.
2. Generate local config.generated.yaml from wizard.
3. Keep real secrets in local/private files only.
4. Smoke test with /sharelife_pref and /sharelife_trial_status after config changes.
