Settings

Use EngineForge Settings to manage account access, appearance, startup behavior, project context, approvals, indexing, models, and application updates.

General

  • Sign in or sign out of the EngineForge account.
  • Open Plans & Models.
  • Import extensions, settings, and keybindings from VS Code.
  • Switch between EngineForge Dark and Light themes.
  • On desktop, choose AI Cockpit, Classic Editor, or Remember Last as the default startup surface.
  • Check for EngineForge updates.
  • Open the .engineforgeignore editor.

Project and action controls

  • Ignored Files edits the .engineforgeignore rules for the current workspace folder.
  • Auto-Approve controls which supported action categories can proceed without a prompt and which command prefixes are allowed or denied.
  • Indexing controls automatic local project indexing and reports the current index state.

Plans and models

Plans & Models lists every model available to the account and shows where the account stands: the plan by name, how much of this month’s allowance is left as a percentage, the date it resets, and whether any pre-paid top-up is available. Every model is available on every plan; the plans differ in the size of the allowance.

Buying, changing and cancelling a plan happen on the EngineForge website, not in the editor. Manage Plan & Top-ups opens the plan page in a browser.

Scope

Some preferences are application-wide, while ignore rules and index state depend on the active workspace or Game Folder. Check the relevant page before assuming a change applies to every project.
