zephyr-settings

zephyr-settings is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ksachdeva/zephyr-rtos-ai. It costs 96 tokens per session (826 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to Zephyr’s Settings subsystem, which stores device configuration and other persistent values across restarts. It covers storage backends such as NVS, ZMS, FCB, and files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to store settings, runtime state, calibration data, network values, and other device configuration in Zephyr applications.
Why use it?
It helps select storage, define configuration handlers, load saved values, and save changes without designing the storage process yourself.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

zephyr-settings scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Zephyr Settings Skill

Quick Start

  1. Choose Backend: See references/backend_comparison.md
  2. Define Handler: Use SETTINGS_STATIC_HANDLER_DEFINE or settings_handler struct
  3. Initialize: Call settings_subsys_init()settings_register()settings_load()
  4. Save Changes: Use settings_save_one() or settings_save()

Core Concepts

  • Keys: Hierarchical strings (e.g., id/serial, wifi/ssid)
  • Handlers: Implement h_set, h_get, h_export, h_commit for your subtree
  • Backends: Storage implementations (NVS, ZMS, FCB, File) - as of Zephyr 4.1, NVS and ZMS are recommended for non-filesystem storage

Handler Commit Priority

When multiple handlers depend on each other during initialization, use commit priority (cprio):

  • Lower values = Higher priority (executed first during commit)
  • Default priority: 0
  • Use settings_register_with_cprio() for dynamic handlers
  • Use SETTINGS_STATIC_HANDLER_DEFINE_WITH_CPRIO() for static handlers

Example: A network service that other handlers depend on should have higher priority (lower cprio value).

Handler Function Quick Reference

Function Called When Return Value Required For
h_set Loading from storage or runtime_set 0 on success Loading values
h_get Runtime get (CONFIG_SETTINGS_RUNTIME=y) Length on success Runtime access
h_export Saving all settings 0 on success Persistence
h_commit After all settings loaded 0 on success Validation/init

Multiple Storage Sources

Settings supports loading from multiple sources but saves to a single destination:

  • Multiple source backends: Load settings from all registered sources
  • Single destination backend: All saves go to one location

Use case: Factory defaults in read-only flash + user overrides in NVS.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
