agoric.autoUpdate

By default, on startup, Agoric checks for SDK updates and updates the version locally. If you want to opt out of this, set the agoric.autoUpdate option to false. Eg:

{
  "agoric.autoUpdate": false
}

agoric.installDir

By default, this extension clones the Agoric SDK into the home directory. Configure a custom directory to clone the SDK into by changing the field. Eg:

{
  "agoric.installDir": "/another-path"
}
