FAQPage Schema
How do I refresh stale builder profile metadata fields using TTL?▼

TTL-based profile decay re-validates stale fields in the plugins.vibe-test._meta namespace, surfacing the highest-priority expired items and prompting for gentle renewal confirmation without silently overwriting existing user values.

What is profile decay in Vibe Test and when should I run it?▼

Profile decay is a gentle validation mechanism applied during router runs and profile changes to keep Vibe Test builder metadata fresh. Run it when upgrading builders or needing to surface and prompt for renewal of stale configuration fields.

How do I prevent stale field validation from overwriting my custom profile values?▼

Profile decay enforces strict handling of known fields and performs atomic writes to ensure safe, auditable changes. It respects the decay_disabled flag and manages only documented fields, preventing silent rewrites of custom user values.

Can I disable TTL decay checks for specific Vibe Test profile configurations?▼

Yes, you can disable decay checks by setting the decay_disabled flag in the profile. When enabled, the decay routine applies readProfile and writeProfile with strict field handling during router runs to surface stale metadata safely.

What's the best way to migrate fresh-stamp metadata for new Vibe Test builders?▼

Fresh-stamp migration is handled by running the decay routine, which gently re-validates and refreshes decay-related fields in the plugins.vibe-test namespace to surface stale data and prompt for renewal during builder upgrades.
