SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you safely manage Protocol Proxy’s system settings by guiding configuration backup/export, import/merge/overwrite recovery, rollback to a previous version, and key operational preferences like theme, delegation (sub-agent) behavior, memory handling, auto-start, and command execution policy.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Configuration backup, import, and restore: Export configuration structure to JSON (excluding API keys), import it with merge or overwrite modes, and preview what will be brought in.
  • Version history with rollback: Review configuration snapshot history and roll back to a selected version, restoring providers, proxies, and MCP settings.
  • UI and agent behavior tuning: Switch themes instantly, configure sub-agent concurrency/timeout/tool permissions and sandbox isolation, and manage memory tiers (tier1 always-injected, tier2 on-demand).
  • Operational controls: Enable/disable Windows auto-start via GUI or CLI, and manage execution policy rules (allow/prompt/forbidden) for shell command execution with wildcard matching.

Quick Start

Ask the AI assistant to help you export your configuration, import it onto a new machine using merge mode, and then roll back to the last known-good snapshot if anything breaks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I back up and export Protocol Proxy configuration settings to another machine?

To back up Protocol Proxy configuration, export your system settings to a JSON file, excluding API keys. You can then import this JSON onto a new machine using merge or overwrite modes, with a preview of the incoming changes.

How does configuration rollback work for restoring previous proxy settings?

Configuration rollback works by reviewing your configuration snapshot history and selecting a previous version. This restores providers, proxies, and MCP settings to their prior state if a recent change breaks your system.

Can I configure sub-agent delegation permissions with sandbox isolation?

Yes, you can configure sub-agent delegation permissions with sandbox isolation. This includes managing sub-agent concurrency, timeout, and tool permissions to safely control agent execution behavior.

What is the difference between merge and overwrite modes when importing JSON configuration?

Merge mode combines the imported JSON settings with your existing configuration, while overwrite mode replaces your current settings entirely. Both modes provide a preview of what will be brought in before applying changes.

How do I manage execution policy rules for shell command execution?

You manage execution policy rules by setting command execution categories to allow, prompt, or forbidden. This uses wildcard matching to control which shell commands can run within the system.

Does Protocol Proxy support Windows auto-start for operational setup?

Yes, Protocol Proxy supports Windows auto-start for operational setup. You can enable or disable this feature via the GUI or CLI to manage how the system launches on startup.
