Testing gvShell Step 9 Configuration

Output

Testing gvShell Step 9: Configuration1. Run Unit Testscd /konnectvol/gv/gvshell
go test ./internal/config/... -vShould pass 13 tests for config package.
2. Test Default Configurationcd /konnectvol/gv/gvshell
go build -o gvshell ./cmd/gvshell
./gvshellWithout any config file, gvShell should use these defaults:
SettingDefault Value
Default Providerclaude
Modelsonnet
History Size1000
Streamingtrue
3. Test User Config FileCreate a user config to override defaults:
mkdir -p ~/.gvshell
cat > ~/.gvshell/config.yaml << 'EOF'
general:
  default_provider: claude
  history_size: 500
  streaming: true

providers:
  claude:
    enabled: true
    model: opus
    max_tokens: 8192
EOFNow restart gvShell - it should use opus model with 500 history.
4. Test Project Config OverrideCreate a project-level config (overrides user config):
cat > .gvshell.yaml << 'EOF'
general:
  history_size: 200

providers:
  claude:
    model: haiku
EOFNow haiku model and 200 history should be used in this directory.
5. Test Environment OverridesEnvironment variables have highest priority:
# Override model via env
GVSHELL_CLAUDE_MODEL=sonnet ./gvshell

# Set API key via env (standard way)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key-here
./gvshell

# Override data directory
GVSHELL_DATA_DIR=/tmp/gvtest ./gvshell
