FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a cognitive-core configuration file for my project?

The setup wizard performs pre-flight checks to detect existing configurations and legacy installations, then auto-detects project metadata like name, language, and architecture to apply sensible defaults during initialization.

Can I use the setup wizard to configure cognitive-core for CI pipelines?

Yes, the setup wizard supports CI pipelines by enforcing consistent starter configuration and generating a structured cognitive-core.conf with comments to guide future edits across cross-language setups.

What is the best way to initialize cognitive-core for multiple programming languages?

The best way to initialize cognitive-core across multiple languages is using the setup wizard, which handles cross-language setups by prompting for project identity and language to generate a tailored configuration file.

Does the setup wizard overwrite existing cognitive-core.conf files?

The setup wizard does not blindly overwrite existing files; it performs pre-flight checks to detect existing configurations and legacy installations before generating a new cognitive-core.conf.

Do I need to manually specify project metadata when running the project setup?

You do not need to manually specify all metadata because the setup wizard auto-detects project name, language, and architecture, providing sensible defaults while allowing interactive prompts for confirmation.
