Configure Your Radar

Customize which sources to scan and how to score relevance.

Setting Domains

Your domains determine what's relevant to you:

Copyconfigure_sources(domains: ["TypeScript", "React", "AI", "distributed systems"])

Domains can be:

• Programming languages (TypeScript, Python, Rust)
• Frameworks (React, Next.js, FastAPI)
• Technologies (WebAssembly, GraphQL, Kubernetes)
• Concepts (distributed systems, machine learning, security)

Source Configuration

Enable/disable sources:

Copyconfigure_sources(hackernews_enabled: true, github_enabled: true)

Adjust weights (0-2, higher = more influence):

Copyconfigure_sources(
  hackernews_weight: 1.5,    # Prioritize HN
  github_weight: 0.5         # De-prioritize GitHub
)

GitHub language filter:

Copyconfigure_sources(github_languages: ["TypeScript", "Rust", "Python"])

Profile Integration

If shared-memory is installed, pattern-radar reads your profile automatically:

• Languages from technical.languages
• Frameworks from technical.frameworks
• Domains from knowledge.domains
• Interests from knowledge.interests

You can override or supplement with configure_sources.

GitHub Token

For higher rate limits (5,000/hour vs 60/hour):

1. Create token at https://github.com/settings/tokens
2. Run pattern-radar setup: node run.js
3. Enter token when prompted

Token is saved to ~/.config/brain-jar/pattern-radar.json

Current Config

View current configuration by calling any radar tool—it shows your active settings.

Reset to Defaults

Delete the config file:

Copyrm ~/.config/brain-jar/pattern-radar.json
