Settings Reference

PaddleBoard-specific settings (on top of all of Zed’s). Add them to your settings.json.

Scion

{
  "paddleboard_scion": { "enabled": false }
}

Enables the Scion integration (default false). Installing the scion CLI alone does not activate it — this toggle does.

OpenTelemetry (Scion tracing)

{
  "paddleboard_otel": {
    "enabled": false,
    "endpoint": "http://localhost:4317",
    "protocol": "grpc"
  }
}

Exports Scion agent-lifecycle traces over OTLP to a collector (Jaeger, Tempo, etc.). Can also be enabled with PADDLEBOARD_OTEL_ENABLED=1.

Sandbox

{
  "paddleboard_sandbox": { "on_missing_runtime": "block" }
}

Controls what happens when the Podman/gVisor sandbox prerequisites are missing: block (default), fall_back_to_host, or warn_once.

Vertex AI

Configured under the Vertex provider settings — project_id, optional location (default global), and optionally credentials_path (service-account JSON) or an Express key. See Configuring LLM Providers.

Telemetry

There is nothing to configure: telemetry is hard-disabled in PaddleBoard. Events are dropped at the source and never reach the network.
