Reference: config schema

This is the field-level reference for Conduit's YAML config (schema_version: 1). Use the pages in this section when you need exact keys, types, and defaults — each nav entry matches a top-level block (or a nested path such as pools[].health). Pages are ordered like a query path: ingress, policy, answer path, upstream, process, control, then observability. metrics and tracing share one page; data_sources and data_source_limits share another.

For how the file is loaded, how paths resolve, and how validation behaves, see Config file. For overlays, effective config, and snapshots, see Configuration model. For how all top-level blocks fit together, see Config file — top-level blocks.

The canonical machine-readable schema is proto/conduit/v1/config.proto in the repository.
