What changed

A new --genesis-override CLI flag was added to the apply command, allowing developers to set genesis parameters (e.g., staking unbonding time, governance voting period) when deploying nodes with the genesis-chain preset.

Docs gap addressed

No existing docs page explicitly covering the apply command's --genesis-override flag was provided in the current content. The node/configuration.md path is inferred from the repo layout described in README.md (node/ covers running nodes). If a more specific page exists for the apply command or node deployment presets (e.g., node/apply.md or node/genesis.md), that page should be updated instead. A reviewer should confirm the exact file path before editing. No migration step is required since this is a net-new flag.

Files changed

• node/configuration.md — Add documentation for the new --genesis-override flag on the apply subcommand, including its syntax, JSON-first value parsing behavior, supported key format (dotted cosmos-module paths), and the constraint that it is only valid with --preset genesis-chain.
