config-reader

# Config Reader

Read and merge `.agents.yml` and `.agents.local.yml` configuration files. Local config overrides base config.

**Requires:** yq (`brew install yq` or `snap install yq`)

## Arguments

`$ARGUMENTS` format: `<field> [default]`

Examples:
- `auto_preview false` - get top-level field, default to "false"
- `plan.auto_create_task false` - get nested field, default to "false"
- `tech_stack generic` - get top-level field, default to "generic"
- `browser.type chrome` - get nested browser type
- `toolbox.build_task.design_system_path` - get deeply nested field

## Execution

Run the config reader script with parsed arguments:

```bash
bash {baseDir}/scripts/config_reader.sh FIELD DEFAULT
```

Replace `FIELD` and `DEFAULT` with the parsed arguments from `$ARGUMENTS`.

## Return Value

Return ONLY the config value (single line):
- `true`
- `rails`
- `github`

## Merge Logic

1. **Local checked first** - `.agents.local.yml` wins if key exists
2. **Fall back to base** - `.agents.yml` if not in local
3. **Default** - provided default if neither has the key
