Configuration
| Variable | Required | Secret | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| VERAX_ISSUER | yes | — | Issuer the agent's token must carry. The body refuses to start without one; `verax doctor` names what is missing. |
| VERAX_JWKS_URL | yes | — | Where the body fetches the keys that verify that token. |
| VERAX_AUDIENCE | yes | — | Audience the token must name, so a token minted for something else is refused. |
| VERAX_STATE_DIR | yes | — | Directory the ledger, keys and approvals live in. It stays on this machine. |
| VERAX_POLICY_FILE | yes | — | Policy the gate applies. @verax-ai/proxy ships policy/default.json, which denies what it does not name. |
| VERAX_BIND | — | — | host:port the body listens on. Anything but loopback needs VERAX_TLS_TERMINATED=1. |
| VERAX_INVENTORY_FILE | — | — | Roster document the body serves; the format is @verax-ai/inventory. |
