strata19.settings_manage
Expert tool
What it does
Read and change plugin settings, including the spend and effort ceilings. Settings resolve by precedence: environment variable beats stored setting beats built-in default, and every value reports which tier it came from.
When to use it
Use when: "raise the spec generation budget" · "what is my budget set to" · "why did generation abort" · "show me every setting"
Also use when: a tool refused because a ceiling was hit and you want to raise it rather than narrow the work
When not to use it
setting a model API key — credentials are never stored here; use STRATA19_MODEL_KEY or ~/.strata19/credentials.json
