Description
SLK Cvar Editor
A small in-game utility for browsing, searching, and editing WoW CVars without alt-tabbing or typing blind /run C_CVar.SetCVar(...) commands.
CVar Browser
Floating draggable window with about 75 common CVars across Camera, Sound, Chat, UI, Nameplates, Combat, Graphics, Network, and Misc categories. Filter by category, search by name or description, edit values inline (Enter to apply, Escape to revert), and reset any CVar to its default with one click. Names turn yellow when the value differs from default. There is also a free-form lookup bar at the bottom for any CVar not in the list.
Window position saves across sessions.

Restriction Testing Panel
A separate small window for toggling the six built-in restriction simulation CVars added in patch 12.0.5. Useful when testing addon behavior under boss encounter, M+, combat, or chat lockdown conditions without needing a real group.
| CVar | What it does |
|---|---|
addonChatRestrictionsForced |
Makes InChatMessagingLockdown() return true, silently drops SendAddonMessage |
addonChallengeModeRestrictionsForced |
Simulates an active M+ timer |
addonEncounterRestrictionsForced |
Simulates an active boss pull, blocks SendChatMessage and other protected calls |
addonCombatRestrictionsForced |
General in-combat addon restrictions |
addonMapRestrictionsForced |
Map and instance identity restrictions |
addonPvPMatchRestrictionsForced |
PvP match restrictions |
Checkboxes reflect the real CVar value at all times. If you flip one via the console while the panel is open it updates immediately. Active restrictions highlight orange. Reset All zeros all six at once.
Notes
Requires WoW Retail 12.0.5 or later (Interface 120005). No dependencies.
Bad CVar values fail silently via pcall and the field reverts. CVars that need a UI reload to take effect still need one after editing.
The addon*RestrictionsForced names are current as of 12.0.5. Blizzard renamed these from secret*RestrictionsForced in that patch.
