Agent loads variables not in my .env

[ongrowthsedge]

For example the twitter plugin is loading that post is disabled and that replies etc are enabled directly after loading the SQL plugin adapter.

I can only assume these are being stored somewhere in the DB.

Why would this be happening and or how do I find out where this setting is?

the main .env doesn't contain these actual settings and these can't be modified anywhere in the GUI running.

Where can these be changed for default settings?

[1BDO]

The Twitter plugin settings like TWITTER_ENABLE_POST=false and TWITTER_SEARCH_ENABLE=true are being loaded and stored through the SQL plugin's database system. These settings can come from several sources:

Configuration Sources (in order of priority):

1. Character settings in your character file
2. Environment variables in your .env file
3. Plugin defaults

Where Settings Are Stored:

The SQL plugin creates database tables including a cache table that can store configuration values. When the Twitter plugin initializes, it reads these settings and they get persisted in the database.

Default Twitter Plugin Settings:

From the documentation, the default values are:

• TWITTER_POST_ENABLE=false (disabled by default)
• TWITTER_SEARCH_ENABLE=true (enabled by default)
• TWITTER_AUTO_RESPOND_MENTIONS=true
• TWITTER_AUTO_RESPOND_REPLIES=true

How to Change These Settings:

Option 1: Environment Variables
Add to your .env file:

TWITTER_POST_ENABLE=true
TWITTER_SEARCH_ENABLE=false
