Configuration

Configure local state and source providers.

ocvm keeps defaults small: local state under ~/.ocvm, npm as the default OpenClaw source, and release manifests available for controlled distribution.

OCVM_HOME

Redirects all ocvm state, including config, versions, shims, cache, logs, and snapshots.

OCVM_NPM_PACKAGE

Overrides the npm package name used by the npm source provider. The default is openclaw.

OCVM_SOURCE

Set to release to use a release manifest instead of npm metadata.

OCVM_RELEASE_MANIFEST_URL

Points the release source provider at a JSON manifest with version, tag, tarball, and optional checksum metadata.
