Config file

Default locations, chosen by who runs the agent:

• Running as root: /etc/thinr-agent/config.json
• Running as a user: ~/.config/thinr-agent/config.json

Override with -c, --config <path>.

Handling

• The file is written by the installer (or thinr-agent reconfigure) with 0600 permissions; you rarely need to edit it by hand.
• The device token is never stored in plaintext. To rotate credentials, re-provision with thinr-agent reconfigure or thinr-agent install --overwrite.
• The agent reads the file at startup; after changing it, restart the service (systemctl restart thinr-agent).
