Details (glossary)

hydration.hydration_max_chars (HYDRATION_MAX_CHARS) — Hydration Max Chars

Category: general

Maximum characters to load per chunk when hydrating results with code content. Prevents huge chunks from bloating responses and consuming excessive memory. 0 = no limit (may cause memory issues with large files). Recommended: 2000 for general use, 1000 for memory-constrained environments, 5000 for detailed code review. Chunks larger than this limit are truncated.

hydration.hydration_mode (HYDRATION_MODE) — Hydration Mode

Category: general

Controls when full code is loaded from chunks.jsonl. "Lazy" (recommended) loads code after retrieval, providing full context with minimal memory overhead. "None" returns only metadata (file path, line numbers) - fastest but no code content. Use "none" for testing retrieval quality or when you only need file locations, not actual code.
