Configuration

Config files

Claude Yard stores its config in ~/.multi-claude/:

File	Used by	Ports
app-config.json	Production (packaged Electron app)	9595 / 9596
app-config.dev.json	Development (npm run electron:dev)	8587 / 8588
app-config.docker.json	Docker (mc-up)	9595 / —

The docker config is auto-generated by mc-up — it inherits API keys from app-config.dev.json and sets docker-specific fields (bare: true, logDir: null, etc.).

All files use the same format:

{
  "serverPort": 9595,
  "clientPort": 9596
}

Production and development can run simultaneously — they use different ports and different config files.

Environment variables

Variable	Purpose
APP_CONFIG_PATH	Path to the config file. Required by all server processes — crashes with a clear error if missing.
NODE_ENV	development or production

Port allocation

	Server	Client	CDP	CDP Proxy
