+title: jr2.config.ts
+description: "Every field of jr2.config.ts: its type, whether it is required, its default, and what it does."
+---
+
+# jr2.config.ts
+
+An Instance's config is the default export of its `jr2.config.ts`: a `JR2Config`, written with `defineConfig`. Each field below has its path, as in `git.credentials[].match`, where `[]` is each entry of a list and `<name>` is each key of a map.
+
+The shape of `jr2.config.ts`: the deployment facts of an Instance, which a Machine cannot carry.
+It holds the Instance's name, its secrets, how the cluster authenticates to Repos, what the
+Harness can reach, where Sandboxes run, and where images go. It names no Repo, no model and no
+Sandbox Image: a Machine names those itself.
+
+Every field is optional, and an Instance can run with no `jr2.config.ts`. Write the file as
+`export default defineConfig({ … })`. When the config loads, a file with no default export is
+refused: `` <file> has no default export (use `export default defineConfig({…})`) ``. The load also
+checks the shape of `git.credentials`, `secrets`, `harness.catalog` and `priorityClasses`. It
+checks that `sandbox` is an object, and checks its `resources`. Each refusal names the field.
+`jr2 up` checks the rest.
+
+**Example**
+
+```ts
+import { defineConfig, type JR2Config } from "@jr2/orchestrator";
+
+const harness: JR2Config["harness"] = {
+  provider: {
+    id: "vllm",
+    api: "openai-completions",
+    baseUrl: process.env.VLLM_URL ?? "",
+    models: { "Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B": { contextWindow: 131072, maxTokens: 16384 } },
+  },
+};
+
+export default defineConfig({ name: "my-instance", harness });
+```

+
+<a id="name"></a>
+
+## `name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: the name of the Instance folder
+
+The Instance's name. Its Kubernetes namespace is this name (`-n` overrides it), and
+`jr2 up` labels every object that it owns with it.
+
+<a id="secrets"></a>
+
+## `secrets`
+
+- Type: `readonly SecretEntry[]`
+- Required: no
+
+Every secret of the Instance, in one list. A secret goes where something names it. A Held
+secret goes where a `workspace()` lists it under `secrets` or an Agent's provider reads it. An
+Effect secret goes where an Effect names it with `secret("name")`. Its `hosts` is a Held
+secret's binding, never its placement: an entry that nothing names goes nowhere. A model API
+key goes here, never in `harness.env`. See `SecretEntry`. Each entry is checked when the
+config loads: `<file> at secrets[<i>]<path>: <problem>`, followed by the shape of an entry.
+
+<a id="secrets-name"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+As a Held secret, the name of the env var that the Harness container sees, which holds the
+Stand-in. As an Effect secret, the name that `secret("<name>")` names, and the name of the
+Effector's file. For a Held secret, it must match `[A-Z_][A-Z0-9_]*`:
+`secrets[<i>].name "<name>" is not an env var name ([A-Z_][A-Z0-9_]*)`. It must not start with
+`JR2_` and must not be a proxy or trust variable of the kit:
+`secrets[<i>].name <NAME> is the kit's — JR2_ names and the proxy and trust variables belong to the mechanism`.
+One name, one entry: `secrets[<i>].name <NAME> is held twice`.
+
+<a id="secrets-value"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].value`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+The value, usually read from `process.env` (`.env`). `jr2 up` writes it only into the Secrets
+of the containers that hold it. Write exactly one of `value` and `valueFrom`:
+`secrets[<i>] needs exactly one of value or valueFrom`. A `.env` variable that is not set reads
+as no value, and an empty one is refused: `secrets[<i>].value is empty — set <NAME> in .env`.
+
+<a id="secrets-valuefrom"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].valueFrom`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+
+Or a key of a Secret that you manage (Sealed Secrets, External Secrets):
+`{ secretKeyRef: { name, key } }`. `jr2 up` checks that the Secret and the key exist. Each
+container that holds the secret mounts that one key as a file, and no other container does.
+
+<a id="secrets-valuefrom-secretkeyref"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].valueFrom.secretKeyRef`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: yes
+
+The Secret and the key in it that hold the value.
+
+<a id="secrets-valuefrom-secretkeyref-name"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].valueFrom.secretKeyRef.name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The name of the Secret.
+
+<a id="secrets-valuefrom-secretkeyref-key"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].valueFrom.secretKeyRef.key`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The key in the Secret that holds the value.
+
+<a id="secrets-hosts"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].hosts`
+
+- Type: `readonly string[]`
+- Required: no
+
+Where the value may go as a Held secret. Each entry is `host`, `host:port`, or an `https://`
+URL, of which only the host and port count. Write exact DNS names or IP addresses, with no
+wildcards. The port default is 443. A known model key, such as `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, may leave
+it out: it then goes to the one host that its provider calls. Any other Held secret must name
+its hosts: `secrets[<i>].hosts is absent, and <NAME> has no single default host`.
+
+<a id="secrets-headers"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].headers`
+
+- Type: `readonly string[]`
+- Required: no
+- Default: `["authorization", "x-api-key", "x-goog-api-key", "api-key"]`
+
+The request headers in which the Custodian puts the value in place of the Stand-in,
+lowercase. A header
+that frames or routes the request is refused:
+`secrets[<i>].headers[<j>] "<header>" cannot carry a held secret`.
+
+<a id="secrets-paths"></a>
+
+### `secrets[].paths`
+
+- Type: `readonly string[]`
+- Required: no
+- Default: every path
+
+The path prefixes to which the value may be sent, such as `/v1/messages`. Each starts with
+`/`. Narrow it for a gateway key that can reach admin routes, such as a
+LiteLLM key that can make new keys. The Agent could take away a key made that way.
+
+<a id="git"></a>
+
+## `git`
+
+- Type: `GitConfig`
+- Required: no
+
+How the cluster authenticates to Repos, and the fence that a per-run url must pass. It is not
+a list of Repos: a Machine names its Repos in the Repo Slots of its `workspace()`. See
+`GitConfig`.
+
+<a id="git-credentials"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials`
+
+- Type: `readonly GitCredential[]`
+- Required: no
+
+The credential entries, matched by prefix on the Repo identity. The longest `match` wins; on a
+tie, the first entry in the list wins.
+
+The list is also a fence. A per-run url, which comes from the run input, must match an entry,
+or the Sandbox refuses it when it attaches the Repo:
+`Sandbox "<name>" refuses the per-run repo <url> for slot "<slot>": no git.credentials entry matches "<identity>"`.
+Thus a run cannot spend this cluster's credentials against any host. A url that a Machine
+binds needs no entry. When no entry matches it, it clones with no credential.
+
+Each entry is checked when the config loads:
+`<file> at git.credentials[<i>]<path>: <problem>`, followed by the shape of an entry.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-match"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].match`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The Repos this entry is for: a prefix of a Repo's identity, such as `github.com/ourorg/`, or
+`*` for every Repo. The identity of a Repo is its host and path with no scheme, user or `.git`.
+When more than one entry matches, the longest `match` wins; on a tie, the first entry in the
+list wins.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-token"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].token`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+For an `https://` url: the name of the env var that holds a token, read from the shell or
+`.env` when `jr2 up` runs. `jr2 up` writes the value into a Secret (`jr2-git-<hash>`) that only
+the Repo cache agent reads. The Agent never sees it.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-sshkey"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].sshKey`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+For an ssh url: the name of a Secret that you create. It holds a deploy key under the Flux
+key names `identity`, `identity.pub` and `known_hosts`.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-push"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].push`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+- Default: the clone credential pushes
+
+The credential that a `push()` Effect uses, when it is not the clone credential. Write
+`{ sshKey }` or `{ token }`. An entry with no credential
+admits a clone and never a push. When the push finds no usable credential, it is refused, for
+example: `no git.credentials entry matches "<identity>" — a push spends the entry its url
+matches`, or `git.credentials entry "<match>" holds no credential a push over <scheme> can
+spend`.
+
+It is one of these objects:
+
+- Form 1: `sshKey`
+  - `sshKey`, `string`: For an ssh url: the name of a Secret that you create, with the same keys as the entry's `sshKey`.
+- Form 2: `token`
+  - `token`, `string`: For an `https://` url: the name of the env var that holds the push token, read as for the entry's `token`.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-sign"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].sign`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+
+The key that a `push({ sign: true })` signs with, and the committer it signs as:
+`{ sshKey, name, email }` or `{ gpgKey, name, email }`. `sshKey` names a Secret with
+`identity`. `gpgKey` names a Secret with `private.asc` and no passphrase. jr2 never signs with
+the clone or push key, so name the signing key here. The email must belong to the forge account
+that holds the key, or the forge shows the signature as unverified. A signed push without it is
+refused: `signed, and git.credentials entry "<match>" holds no sign field`.
+
+It is one of these objects:
+
+- Form 1: `sshKey`, `name`, `email`
+  - `sshKey`, `string`: The name of a Secret that you create, which holds the ssh signing key under `identity`.
+  - `name`, `string`: The committer's name on the signed commit.
+  - `email`, `string`: The committer's email. It must belong to the forge account that holds the key.
+- Form 2: `gpgKey`, `name`, `email`
+  - `gpgKey`, `string`: The name of a Secret that you create, which holds the GPG signing key under `private.asc`, with no passphrase.
+  - `name`, `string`: The committer's name on the signed commit.
+  - `email`, `string`: The committer's email. It must belong to the forge account that holds the key.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-committer"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].committer`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+
+Who commits an unsigned `push({ squash: true })`: `{ name, email }`. The squashed commit is
+new, so it needs a committer. Its date comes from the Effector's clock, and its author stays
+the Agent. A signed push is committed by the signer, so it does not read this field. A squashed
+push with neither field is refused: `squashed without sign, and git.credentials entry "<match>"
+holds neither sign nor committer`.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-committer-name"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].committer.name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The committer's name on the squashed commit.
+
+<a id="git-credentials-committer-email"></a>
+
+### `git.credentials[].committer.email`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The committer's email on the squashed commit.
+
+<a id="harness"></a>
+
+## `harness`
+
+- Type: `HarnessConfig`
+- Required: no
+
+What the Harness can reach: a custom model provider, gateways for catalog providers, env
+vars, and CAs. See `HarnessConfig`.
+
+<a id="harness-provider"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider`
+
+- Type: `HarnessProvider`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none; the Agents use catalog providers only
+
+A custom model provider, such as a vLLM or Ollama endpoint. See `HarnessProvider`.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-id"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.id`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The provider id that model names start with: `vllm` in `vllm/Qwen/Qwen3-32B`. It must not
+also be a key of `harness.catalog`:
+`harness.catalog.<id>: "<id>" is also harness.provider.id — a custom provider owns its own baseUrl`.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-api"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.api`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The wire protocol. The only value is `"openai-completions"`, which most OpenAI-compatible
+endpoints speak, such as vLLM and Ollama. `jr2 up` refuses any other value before it builds or
+applies anything:
+`refusing: harness.provider.api is "<api>" — the Harness speaks: openai-completions (ADR-0018)`.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-baseurl"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.baseUrl`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The endpoint's URL. The pods must reach it: `localhost` never works, and a LAN address works
+on kind. It changes between deployments, so read it from `process.env` (`.env`). `jr2 up`
+checks from inside the cluster that the endpoint answers.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-apikey"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.apiKey`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none, for an endpoint that needs no key
+
+The API key, when the endpoint needs one. Read it from `process.env`. It is a Held secret,
+`JR2_PROVIDER_API_KEY`: `jr2 up` gives the value to the Custodian only, bound to the host of
+`baseUrl`, and the Harness container holds only its Stand-in. Thus `baseUrl` must be
+`https://` when you set it:
+`harness.provider.apiKey is set, and harness.provider.baseUrl is not https://`.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-contextwindow"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.contextWindow`
+
+- Type: `number`
+- Required: no
+
+The context window, in tokens, of each model of this provider that `models` does not set.
+Set it here or in `models`: a limit that nothing sets is 0, and then Compaction has no context
+budget.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-maxtokens"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.maxTokens`
+
+- Type: `number`
+- Required: no
+- Default: no limit is sent
+
+The most output tokens in one completion, for each model of this provider that `models` does
+not set.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-models"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.models`
+
+- Type: `Record<string, HarnessProviderModel>`
+- Required: no
+
+Token limits for each model, keyed by the model id after the provider prefix: the key for
+`vllm/Qwen/Qwen3-32B` is `"Qwen/Qwen3-32B"`. A limit set here wins over the provider's.
+
+<a id="harness-provider-models-name-contextwindow"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.models.<name>.contextWindow`
+
+- Type: `number`
+- Required: no
+- Default: the provider's `contextWindow`
+
+The model's context window, in tokens (vLLM: `max_model_len`).
+
+<a id="harness-provider-models-name-maxtokens"></a>
+
+### `harness.provider.models.<name>.maxTokens`
+
+- Type: `number`
+- Required: no
+- Default: the provider's `maxTokens`
+
+The most output tokens in one completion.
+
+<a id="harness-catalog"></a>
+
+### `harness.catalog`
+
+- Type: `Readonly<Record<string, CatalogReach>>`
+- Required: no
+- Default: each provider's own endpoint
+
+Catalog providers whose calls go to another endpoint, such as a gateway, keyed by the catalog
+provider id: `anthropic`, `openai`, and so on. See `CatalogReach`. A key that is not a
+catalog provider with a known model key is refused:
+`harness.catalog.<id>: "<id>" is not a pi catalog provider jr2 knows a key for`.
+
+<a id="harness-catalog-name-baseurl"></a>
+
+### `harness.catalog.<name>.baseUrl`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The whole base URL that the provider's API adds its paths to: `https://litellm.corp.example`
+for `anthropic`, which adds `/v1/messages`; `https://litellm.corp.example/v1` for `openai`. It
+must be `https://`: `harness.catalog.<id>.baseUrl must be an https:// URL`. It changes between
+deployments, so read it from `process.env` (`.env`).
+
+<a id="harness-env"></a>
+
+### `harness.env`
+
+- Type: `readonly HarnessEnvVar[]`
+- Required: no
+
+Env vars for the Harness container. The Agent can read every one of them, so do not put a
+credential here. A known model key is refused here. Put it in the top-level `secrets` list.
+See `HarnessEnvVar`.
+
+<a id="harness-env-name"></a>
+
+### `harness.env[].name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The env var's name. A known model key name, such as `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, is refused:
+`harness.env[<i>] sets <NAME>, a model key the Agent could read and take out of the pod — hold it instead`.
+
+<a id="harness-env-value"></a>
+
+### `harness.env[].value`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+The value, usually read from `process.env`. `jr2 up` writes it into a Secret of the Instance.
+Write `value` or `valueFrom`.
+
+<a id="harness-env-valuefrom"></a>
+
+### `harness.env[].valueFrom`
+
+- Type: `Record<string, unknown>`
+- Required: no
+
+Or a Kubernetes `valueFrom` reference, such as `{ secretKeyRef: { name, key } }`, given to the
+pod as it is. A reference to a Secret of the kit is refused:
+`harness.env[<i>] (<NAME>) reads Secret "<name>", which is the kit's and never the Harness's`.
+
+<a id="harness-envfrom"></a>
+
+### `harness.envFrom`
+
+- Type: `readonly HarnessEnvFromSource[]`
+- Required: no
+
+Secrets and ConfigMaps that you manage, whose keys all become env vars of the Harness
+container. See `HarnessEnvFromSource`.
+
+<a id="harness-envfrom-prefix"></a>
+
+### `harness.envFrom[].prefix`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none
+
+Text put before each key's name, as Kubernetes does.
+
+<a id="harness-envfrom-secretref"></a>
+
+### `harness.envFrom[].secretRef`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+
+A Secret that you manage, by name: `{ name }`. `jr2 up` checks that it exists.
+
+<a id="harness-envfrom-secretref-name"></a>
+
+### `harness.envFrom[].secretRef.name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The name of the Secret.
+
+<a id="harness-envfrom-configmapref"></a>
+
+### `harness.envFrom[].configMapRef`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+
+A ConfigMap that you manage, by name: `{ name }`.
+
+<a id="harness-envfrom-configmapref-name"></a>
+
+### `harness.envFrom[].configMapRef.name`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: yes
+
+The name of the ConfigMap.
+
+<a id="harness-cabundle"></a>
+
+### `harness.caBundle`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+A path to a PEM CA bundle, relative to the Instance folder. An example is the CA of an
+internal endpoint in front of a LAN vLLM. Commit the file: CA certificates are public. `jr2 up`
+puts it in the `jr2-ca` ConfigMap and uses it when it checks the provider. The Harness
+container trusts it, and so does the Custodian when it verifies a host that a Held secret is
+bound to.
+
+<a id="sandbox"></a>
+
+## `sandbox`
+
+- Type: `SandboxConfig`
+- Required: no
+- Default: a Sandbox runs wherever an ordinary pod runs, at the kit's Size
+
+Which nodes are Sandbox nodes, and the Size of a Workspace that states none. See `SandboxConfig`.
+
+<a id="sandbox-nodeselector"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.nodeSelector`
+
+- Type: `Readonly<Record<string, string>>`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none
+
+The pod's `nodeSelector`: a Sandbox node must have every one of these labels.
+
+<a id="sandbox-tolerations"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.tolerations`
+
+- Type: `readonly Toleration[]`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none
+
+The pod's `tolerations`, as you write them. jr2 adds no `tolerationSeconds`.
+Thus a tolerated `NoExecute` taint keeps a Sandbox on its node while its Lease is renewed.
+
+<a id="sandbox-tolerations-key"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.tolerations[].key`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+The taint key. Leave it out, with `operator: "Exists"`, to tolerate every taint.
+
+<a id="sandbox-tolerations-operator"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.tolerations[].operator`
+
+- Type: `"Exists" | "Equal"`
+- Required: no
+- Default: `"Equal"`
+
+`"Equal"` matches a taint whose value is `value`; `"Exists"` matches any value.
+
+<a id="sandbox-tolerations-value"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.tolerations[].value`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+
+The taint value, for `operator: "Equal"`.
+
+<a id="sandbox-tolerations-effect"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.tolerations[].effect`
+
+- Type: `"NoSchedule" | "PreferNoSchedule" | "NoExecute"`
+- Required: no
+- Default: every effect
+
+The taint effect to tolerate: `"NoSchedule"`, `"PreferNoSchedule"` or `"NoExecute"`.
+
+<a id="sandbox-tolerations-tolerationseconds"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.tolerations[].tolerationSeconds`
+
+- Type: `number`
+- Required: no
+- Default: the pod stays
+
+For `"NoExecute"`: how many seconds the pod stays on the node after the taint is added.
+
+<a id="sandbox-resources"></a>
+
+### `sandbox.resources`
+
+- Type: [`Size`](authoring-surface/type-size.md)
+- Required: no
+- Default: the kit default, memory `2Gi` and cpu `1`
+
+The Size of a Workspace that states no Size at all: `{ limits: { memory, cpu } }` and nothing
+else. The kit default fills a field that it leaves out. It never changes a Size that a Machine
+states: to change that, use `customize(machine, { resources })`. jr2 reserves the whole Size and enforces the cpu limit. See
+[`Size`](authoring-surface/type-size.md) for the refusals, such as
+`<file> at sandbox.resources.requests is not accepted`.
+
+<a id="priorityclasses"></a>
+
+## `priorityClasses`
+
+- Type: `PriorityClasses`
+- Required: no
+
+Existing PriorityClasses to use in place of the two that `jr2 up` creates. See
+`PriorityClasses`.
+
+<a id="priorityclasses-control"></a>
+
+### `priorityClasses.control`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: `jr2-control`, which `jr2 up` creates
+
+An existing PriorityClass for the Orchestrator, the operator and the Repo cache agent.
+
+<a id="priorityclasses-sandbox"></a>
+
+### `priorityClasses.sandbox`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: `jr2-sandbox`, which `jr2 up` creates
+
+An existing PriorityClass for the Sandboxes and the Instance Harness.
+
+<a id="registry"></a>
+
+## `registry`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none; `jr2 up` loads the images into the kind cluster
+
+The image registry prefix to which `jr2 up` pushes the images that it builds, such as
+`registry.example.com/team`. It changes between deployments, so read it from `process.env`
+(`.env`). On a cluster that is
+not kind, `jr2 up` then refuses:
+`` context <context> is not a kind cluster and no `registry` is configured ``.
+
+<a id="kitregistry"></a>
+
+## `kitRegistry`
+
+- Type: `string`
+- Required: no
+- Default: none; the cluster pulls from the canonical home, `ghcr.io/snapwich/jr2-harness:<version>` and the others
+
+The registry from which this cluster pulls the published Kit images: a mirror for a cluster
+that is self-hosted, air-gapped, or mirror-only. Set, the cluster pulls
+the same tags from `<kitRegistry>/jr2-harness:<version>`. Fill the mirror with
+`jr2 kit push <registry>`; `jr2 up` never pushes to it. Read it from `process.env` (`.env`).

+
+## `platforms`
+
+- Type: `readonly string[]`
+- Required: no
+- Default: the platforms of the cluster's schedulable nodes that the kit releases images for
+
+The platforms for which `jr2 up` builds its images, as docker platform strings, such as
+`["linux/arm64"]`. `jr2 up` reports a node platform that it skips.
+
+Set it when the nodes cannot tell. One case is a node group that scales up from zero. Another
+is a set of nodes that need no image, such as an amd64 GPU group beside arm64 nodes. When you
+set it, it replaces the default. It adds to nothing and removes from nothing. The kit releases
+images for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64` only, so `jr2 up` refuses any other:
+`` `platforms` names <platforms> — the kit releases images for linux/amd64, linux/arm64 and nothing else ``.

+
+## `operator`
+
+- Type: `object`
+- Required: no
+
+Settings of the operator layer, for kit development.

+<a id="operator-manage"></a>
+
+### `operator.manage`
+
+- Type: `boolean`
+- Required: no
+- Default: `true`
+
+`false`: `jr2 up` does not converge the operator, and you run its controller yourself.
