# panguard config

> View and edit the Panguard CLI configuration.

The `config` command opens an interactive view of your current Panguard configuration, allowing you to inspect and modify settings for all services -- Guard, Scan, Chat, Trap, and more.

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
panguard config
```

## What It Shows

Running `panguard config` displays the active configuration from `~/.panguard/config.yaml`, including:

* **General** -- language, data directory, cloud endpoint
* **Guard** -- monitors enabled, auto-response rules, learning period
* **Scan** -- scanner modules, output preferences, schedules
* **Chat** -- notification channels, severity filters, quiet hours
* **Trap** -- honeypot services, port mappings, cloud upload settings
* **Report** -- default framework, output format, organization name

## Examples

<CodeGroup>`bash View current configuration panguard config `</CodeGroup>

<Tip>
  For direct file editing, the configuration lives at `~/.panguard/config.yaml`. You can edit it
  with any text editor -- changes take effect the next time a Panguard command runs or when Guard is
  restarted.
