Install-time (install.sh)

VarDefaultEffect
LFG_VERSIONlatestPin the install to a specific release tag (v0.3.0).
LFG_PREFIX/usr/local, fallback $HOME/.localBinary lands in <prefix>/bin/lfg.

Inherited from the system

lfg shells out to brew, mise, npm, etc. — those each respect their own env (HOMEBREW_NO_ANALYTICS, MISE_QUIET, NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY, …). lfg doesn't override or wrap them; whatever you've set will apply.

TUI-specific

VarEffect
TERMUsed for terminal capability detection. The fancy gradient and figlet logo require a 256-colour terminal.
COLORTERMIf truecolor or 24bit, the gradient blends across the full RGB range.

If TERM reports a dumb terminal, lfg falls back to plain ASCII without colour.
