- PIXINSIGHT_BIN — Path to the PixInsight executable. When unset, the default install location for the OS is used.
- PIXINSIGHT_DIR — PixInsight install root, from which the executable and its resources are derived. When unset, the default install location for the OS is used.
- PIXINSIGHT_CONNECTOR_PACKS — Comma-separated tool packs to load: pack directories and .mjs files (an npm package by the path to its folder). Empty: no packs.
- PIXINSIGHT_CONNECTOR_AUTOSTART — 0 stops the connector from starting PixInsight when a tool call finds it not running.
- PIXINSIGHT_CONNECTOR_WORKSPACE — The target folder the tools work in (session files in its agentic folder, results in its output folder). When unset, the folder the connector was started in; the set_workspace tool overrides both.
- PIXINSIGHT_CONNECTOR_STATE — Where the connector's session files (scratch, bridge, logs) go, resolved against the target folder. When unset, <target>/agentic.
- PIXINSIGHT_CONNECTOR_LOG — 0 turns off the per-session call logs in <target>/agentic/logs.
