config
Typed non-sensitive runtime config · `${{ config.X }}` · supplied by the deployment or environment, may appear in logs (R3a · LAW-SURFACE-0201 · succeeds the dead `env:` block). Each entry is a typed declaration; a `default:` MUST conform to `type:` (LAW-TYPE-0211 · NIKA-DEFAULT-001). One of 59 words the served contract declares, projected from workflow.schema.json, the same file your editor validates against.

No gated source on this site speaks config yet. The contract above is the reference, and the register never invents evidence. Try it in the playground: nika check teaches the shape.
