## Configuration

### Custom Port

By default, the server starts on port 3000. To use a different port:

```bash theme={null}
sudocode server --port 4000
```

Or set the `SUDOCODE_PORT` environment variable:

```bash theme={null}
SUDOCODE_PORT=4000 sudocode server
```

### File Watching

The server automatically watches `.sudocode/` files for changes and updates the UI in real-time. To disable file watching:

```bash theme={null}
SUDOCODE_WATCH=false sudocode server
```
