Settings

Settings live in the app’s own database. The Settings page writes them. The key names below are the names in the database, so a support answer and a log line agree with this page.

Key	Meaning	Default
retention_days	Days to keep telemetry before cleanup.	7
theme	system, light, or dark.	system
ai_provider	none, anthropic, openai, or ollama.	none
ai_model	Model name for the provider.	Provider default
ingest_require_auth	Require a bearer token on ingest that does not come from loopback.	false
ingest_token	The accepted bearer token.	unset
ingest_tls_cert_file	PEM certificate for the receiver.	unset
ingest_tls_key_file	PEM key for the receiver.	unset

The AI key

The AI provider key is not a setting. The app stores it in the macOS Keychain, and it never enters the database or a log line. Add it on the Settings › AI analysis page. AI analysis is a Pro feature.

The receiver ports

The receiver prefers 4317 for gRPC and 4318 for HTTP. When another program holds a port, the app moves along a fixed ladder and shows the port in use on the Collectors page. See Ports and the effective port.
