SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the friction of remembering and editing Caliper preference values by giving users a single place to inspect, update, and reset their persistent defaults.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • View settings: See the current value, shipped default, and description for each preference.
  • Change defaults: Persist user overrides for supported options like review behavior, merge strategy, and model selection.
  • Reset safely: Clear one setting or all settings so the workflow falls back to shipped defaults.
  • Use case: A user wants every future PR review to use a different default model, so they update the preference once instead of repeating the choice in every session.

Quick Start

Use the caliper-settings skill to show your current preferences and change the setting you want to update.

FAQPage Schema
How do I change default settings for Caliper preferences?

Caliper settings can be changed by persisting user overrides for supported options like review behavior, merge strategy, and model selection. The Skill validates bool, enum, and int values before applying the configuration.

What is three-tier precedence for configuration settings?

Three-tier precedence enforces a strict hierarchy when applying configuration settings, ensuring user overrides take priority over shipped defaults while resolving preference value conflicts across Caliper plugin workflows.

How do I view current configuration values and shipped defaults?

Viewing current configuration values displays the active setting, shipped default, and description for each preference in one place, allowing users to inspect persistent overrides before making changes.

How do I reset preferences to fall back to shipped defaults?

Resetting preferences safely clears either one specific setting or all settings, causing the configuration workflow to fall back to original shipped defaults instead of persisting stored user overrides.

Can I use Caliper settings to configure default model selection for PR reviews?

Caliper settings supports configuring default model selection for PR reviews. Users persist a model preference override once, eliminating the need to repeatedly choose a model in every future session.

Why are my configuration overrides not validating correctly?

Configuration overrides fail validation when input values do not match supported types. The settings Skill enforces validation for bool, enum, and int values before persisting any user overrides to the configuration.
