Environment Variables Reference

This page lists all important environment variables for configuring, securing, and tuning InnoSynth-Forjinn for various deployment scenarios—cloud, docker, k8s, on-prem, and CI.

---

How to Use

• Set env variables in .env files (Docker), deployment charts (K8s), or process manager configs.
• Priority: Inline (process) > .env file > chart > defaults.
• Sensitive keys/secrets should be injected via secret manager if possible.

---

Core Config

• PORT – Main web server/API port (default: 3000)
• NODE_ENV – development/production (affects logs, error output, caching)
• LOG_LEVEL – info/warn/error/debug/trace
• BASE_URL – Public URL for the platform, used in links/callbacks

---

Database & Storage

• DB_TYPE – postgres/sqlite/mysql/etc
• DB_HOST, DB_PORT, DB_NAME, DB_USER, DB_PASS
• REDIS_URL or CACHE_URL – for caching/session storage
• FILE_STORAGE_PATH – Directory for uploads/artifacts

---

Credentials & Secrets

• OPENAI_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GOOGLE_API_KEY, etc – for provider LLMs/tools
• ENCRYPTION_KEY – Encryption for sensitive config/DB fields

---

SSO & Auth

• OIDC_CLIENT_ID, OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET, OIDC_DISCOVERY_URL – for OpenID/OAuth2
• SAML_METADATA_URL, SAML_ENTITY_ID, etc – for SAML integrations

---

Workers & Concurrency

• WORKER_COUNT – Max concurrent workflow/agent worker processes/pods
• JOB_QUEUE_URL – External queue for distributed/multi-node deployments
• MAX_TOKENS – Limit tokens per LLM call (cost/control purposes)

---

Observability (Logs/Monitoring)

• LOG_PATH – Directory for writing logs (/logs default)
• PROMETHEUS_METRICS_ENABLED – Enable platform metrics endpoint
• NEW_RELIC_KEY/DATADOG_KEY – Third-party monitoring keys

---

Advanced & Custom

• NO_TELEMETRY – Opt out of usage stats/reporting to vendor
• FEATURE_FLAGS – Turn on/off experimental features (FEATURE_FLAGS=AutoGen,CrewAI)
• RATE_LIMIT_* – Set rate limiting thresholds (API, UI, agent runs)

---

K8s/Docker-only

• POD_NAME, NAMESPACE, CLUSTER_ID – Used for metrics/log cross-correlation
• K8S_HEALTHCHECK_PATH – For Kubernetes readiness/liveness probes

---

Security

• ALLOWED_ORIGINS – CORS policy; specify whitelisted domains for API/UI
• SESSION_TIMEOUT – Session expiration in minutes/hours

---

Troubleshooting

• Always validate .env values and restart services after changes.
• Use docker-compose config or kubectl describe to confirm actual loaded env values.
• For secrets, never print in logs or expose to users!
• Version control: Never commit .env files with secrets to source control.
