| Key | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `port` | Port ProdDash serves on (default `24500`). The macOS launcher writes this one, so the port it is set to holds however ProdDash is started. |
| `adminPasscode` | If set, the admin page asks for this shared passcode. Leave `""` for none — it's a plain-HTTP LAN tool. |
| `adminPin` | The admin PIN, as a scrypt hash. **Set it in the admin page's Admin PIN section**, not by hand — 6 digits, and only the hash is stored. Absent means admin is open to anyone on the network. |
| `adminPasscode` | An older free-text passcode. Still honoured, so an existing install keeps working; new installs should use `adminPin`. |
| `forge` | Where updates and module installs are fetched from. Absent or `"github"` uses GitHub; a Gitea or Forgejo base URL such as `"http://10.3.8.90:3000"` uses a server of your own. Set it per machine in the data directory, alongside `repo`. |
| `theme` | The dashboard palette: `booth` (default), `harbor`, `graphite`, `ember` or `daylight`. The admin page's **Theme** section writes this one — see [Themes](#themes). |
**Locked out?** Delete `adminPin` from the data directory's `proddash.json`
and restart, or start the server with `PRODDASH_PASSCODE` set — that passcode
overrides the PIN and always gets you in.
Only `/admin` and the admin API are behind the PIN. Dashboards stay open, so a
wall display needs no PIN, and it is unrelated to a module's own PIN (Slack's
4–8 digit send PIN, say), which guards that module's actions only.
**Updating from your own git server.** ProdDash fetches one `tar.gz` of the
branch — nothing else — so any Gitea or Forgejo works. Point `forge` at its
base URL and `repo` at the owner/repo there:
