For people who like to look under the lid. None of this is required to use Kiki — it's here when you want more control.

In this section

• Configuration — the agentd.toml file and the local-first policy.
• Models — which model runs where, and how to route between local and cloud.
• Command line — kpkg for apps, bootc for OS updates, and agentd flags.
• Custom images — build your own OS image with a different default model or extra packages.
• Permissions & sandbox — how capabilities and isolation work.
• Troubleshooting — when something doesn't behave.
