Environment variables

The only environment variables AgentDock's process actually reads.

Important

There are no AGENTDOCK_*-prefixed environment variables anywhere in the codebase. AgentDock does not define any environment variables of its own — do not set any expecting them to configure the app.

AgentDock's process reads exactly three environment variables, all of which belong to the operating system or to a third-party CLI it launches:

VariableUsed for
CODEX_HOMEIf set, used to locate the Codex CLI's own home directory. This is Codex's own environment variable, not something AgentDock defines — it falls back to ~/.codex if unset.
LOCALAPPDATAWindows only. Used to locate a VS Code installation for a launcher feature.
PATH / PathUsed throughout for resolving agent CLI executables — see Agent CLI not detected.
