# Create a preset custom command configuration

You can create your own configuration for the demisto-sdk commands by creating a file named **`.demisto-sdk-conf`** within the directory from which you run the commands. This file enables you to set a default value to the existing command flags that take effect whenever the command is run. Use the following structure in the file:

```programlisting
[command_name]
flag_name=flag_default_value
```

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

Use the flag's full name. If there is a dash - in the flag name, change that to an underscore \_. For example, instead of no-docker-checks use no\_docker\_checks.
{% endhint %}

The following are examples of preset custom command configurations in the **`.demisto-sdk-conf`** file.

* If you prefer to run the pre-commit command only on committed files:

  ```programlisting
  [pre-commit]
  committed_only=true
  ```
* If you want to include untracked Git files in your validation when running the validate command:

  ```programlisting
  [validate]
  include_untracked=true
  ```
* If you want to automatically use minor version changes when running the **`update-release-notes`** command:

  ```programlisting
  [update-release-notes]
  update_type=minor
  ```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/demisto-sdk-development-guide/demisto-sdk-guide/install-demisto-sdk/create-a-preset-custom-command-configuration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
