Environment variables
  • VERAX_ISSUERrequiredIssuer the agent's token must carry. The body refuses to start without one; `verax doctor` names what is missing.
  • VERAX_JWKS_URLrequiredWhere the body fetches the keys that verify that token.
  • VERAX_AUDIENCErequiredAudience the token must name, so a token minted for something else is refused.
  • VERAX_STATE_DIRrequiredDirectory the ledger, keys and approvals live in. It stays on this machine.
  • VERAX_POLICY_FILErequiredPolicy the gate applies. @verax-ai/proxy ships policy/default.json, which denies what it does not name.
  • VERAX_BINDhost:port the body listens on. Anything but loopback needs VERAX_TLS_TERMINATED=1.

A starting point — check the repository for exact arguments and setup. Restart your client after editing the config.

Nice for visibility, but GitHub marks README links nofollow, so it doesn't pass authority. Use the HTML badge on your site as well.
