`history_limit` defines how many entries the history plugin keeps.
`clipboard_limit` sets how many clipboard entries are persisted for the clipboard plugin.
`preserve_command` keeps the typed command prefix (like `bm add` or `f add`) in the search field after running an action.
`clear_query_after_run` removes the search text after a successful action whenever you prefer starting with a blank box.
`enabled_capabilities` maps plugin names to capability identifiers so features can be toggled individually. The folders plugin, for example, exposes `show_full_path`.
`screenshot_dir` sets the directory used when saving screenshots. If omitted, screenshots are stored in a `MultiLauncher_Screenshots` folder in the current working directory.
`screenshot_save_file` determines whether screenshots copied to the clipboard are also written to disk. The default is `true`.
