setEnvVarsgranular merge inside the server. Pass `set` (KEY=VALUE per line, upsert) and/or `unset` (array of KEY names). The read-modify-write happens server-side; the tool result is a masked confirmation listing only the changed key names. No untouched-key values ever enter the transcript.getEnvKeysreturns KEY names only, sorted. Safe to read.getEnvValuesUnsafe**unsafe escape hatch** that returns the full `KEY=VALUE` blob. Use only when you genuinely need the values; the output is in the tool transcript and any retained agent logs.saveEnvironmentfull-replace, kept for explicit blob-set workflows.mongorequires `databaseUser` (no `databaseName`).redisonly `databasePassword`.libsqlrequires `appName` + `dockerImage` + `sqldNode` (`primary | replica`); accepts `sqldPrimaryUrl` + `enableNamespaces`.composewhole-stack backupwebServerDokploy server backup
