Description
Summary
PR #11935 added support for .continue/configs/ as a third directory (alongside .continue/agents/ and .continue/assistants/) for loading local config profiles. This is not explicitly documented.
What needs to be documented
- The
.continue/configs/directory is now supported for storing YAML config profiles - Works in both workspace and global
~/.continue/directories - Files are automatically discovered and appear as selectable profiles
- File changes are watched and trigger config reload
Current state
The docs mention .continue/agents/ in the agents documentation, and there are example file paths using ~/.continue/configs/config.yaml in some guides, but the .continue/configs/ directory feature is not explicitly documented as a supported feature.
Suggested location
- Add to configuration/setup docs
- Consider a comprehensive "Directory Structure" documentation page explaining all supported directories:
.continue/agents/.continue/assistants/.continue/configs/.continue/checks/
