Environment

Name	Required	Notes
ZENBRAIN_DB	No	Path to the SQLite file that holds the memory. A leading ~/ means your home directory; a relative path depends on where the client starts the server (some start it in /), so give an absolute or ~/ path. Use ':memory:' for a store that is discarded when the process exits.
ZENBRAIN_CONTEXTS	No	Comma-separated context domains, passed to the cross-context layer. No tool uses that layer yet, so the value currently has no effect.
