Use `blink init ./vault --no-migrate-existing` to intentionally start empty, or `blink init ./vault --migrate-from <old-vault>` to migrate from a specific previous vault. Existing target files are not overwritten; conflicting source files are preserved with a `.conflict-<timestamp>` suffix.
 
+### Configure Defaults
+
+```bash
+blink config where
+blink config get vault
+blink config doctor
+blink config doctor --fix
+blink config set-vault /absolute/path/to/vault
+blink config set-vault /absolute/path/to/vault --global

+`agent install` and `agent upgrade` automatically apply the `fully-auto` MCP bootstrap policy (`enforceBootstrap=true`, `enforceContextFirst=true`, `autoBootstrapOnRead=true`, `autoBootstrapOnStartup=true`) so all plug-and-play Brainlink features start enabled.

-SQLite gives fast local search, local vector storage and rebuildable retrieval without forcing users to run external infrastructure.

+Hybrid retrieval also uses a short-lived in-memory cache keyed by vault/query/agent and invalidated by index file mtime to reduce repeated query latency.

+## 3) Initialize Or Select Vault
+
+```bash

+
+To set a different default vault:
+
+```bash
+blink config set-vault /absolute/path/to/vault
