fill

Reference

fill is the interactive command for completing missing local values. Use it when the contract is already defined but the active profile still lacks required data.

envctl fill

Philosophy

fill helps you complete local state from shared intent.

It is an interactive recovery command for missing required values.

What it does

  • prompts for missing required values
  • uses contract metadata when available
  • fails fast if the selected explicit profile does not exist

When to use it

Use fill when the contract is valid but the active profile is missing required values.

Typical use

fill is useful after onboarding, after switching machines, or after adding new required variables to the contract.

Vault

Reconnect fill to the local storage layer it updates.

check
