## Global Conventions
|
|
|
|
- `--help` and `--version` are available globally.
|
|
- Browser command paths skip auto-update checks for lower command latency.
|
|
- Command help for inherited browser commands is delegated to the vendored browser runtime.
|
|
- `steel browser start` and `steel browser sessions` emit display-safe connect
|
|
URLs with sensitive query keys redacted.
|
|
- `steel scrape`, `steel screenshot`, and `steel pdf` share local/cloud endpoint
|
|
resolution conventions with browser lifecycle commands.
|
|
- `steel scrape` defaults to markdown-first output for token efficiency; use
|
|
`--raw` to print the full API JSON payload.
|
|
|
|
## Core Config Paths
|
|
|
|
- Config directory: `~/.config/steel`
|
|
- Main config: `~/.config/steel/config.json`
|
|
- Telemetry state: `~/.config/steel/telemetry.json`
|
|
- Browser session state: `~/.config/steel/browser-session-state.json`
|
|
- Profile metadata: `~/.config/steel/profiles/<name>.json`
|
|
|
|
On the first run where telemetry is enabled, the CLI prints a one-time notice to stderr describing what is collected and how to opt out. The notice is suppressed in JSON/non-TTY output.
|
|
|
|
Telemetry can be disabled persistently in `config.json` with:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"telemetry": {
|
|
"disabled": true
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Environment Variables (Common)
|
|
|
|
- `STEEL_API_KEY`: cloud auth for session API and browser runtime.
|
|
- `STEEL_API_URL`: cloud API endpoint override.
|
|
- `STEEL_BROWSER_API_URL`: canonical self-hosted local endpoint override.
|
|
- `STEEL_LOCAL_API_URL`: backward-compatible self-hosted alias.
|
|
- `STEEL_CONFIG_DIR`: override config directory root.
|
|
- `STEEL_TELEMETRY_HOST`: override the PostHog ingest host.
|
|
- `STEEL_TELEMETRY_DISABLED`: force telemetry off.
|
|
- `STEEL_PROFILE`: default profile name for browser sessions.
