Environment Variables

Variable	Effect
CI=true (or CI=1)	Forces non-interactive mode and JSON output. Same as passing --yes --json.
NO_COLOR=1	Disables ANSI colors (chalk-standard).
DXAI_DRY_RUN=1	Equivalent to --dry-run.
DXAI_REGISTRY_URL	Override the default remote registry base URL used by dxai-cli update.
DXAI_MCP_REGISTRY_URL	Override the official MCP Registry base URL (default https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io) used by dxai-cli update and dxai-cli add <registry-name>.
DXAI_REGISTRY_SOURCE=bundled	Ignore ~/.dxai/cache and use the bundled catalog. Set by the test runner and doc generators.
HOME	Standard Unix home directory; used for resolving ~ and locating user-level config (~/.dxai/...). On Windows, USERPROFILE is used.

Plus any env vars required by the MCP servers you select (e.g. GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN, LINEAR_API_KEY). See Registry / MCP servers for the per-server list.
