## Description

A simple Boolean value store, almost identical to `li-boolean`, but as system metadata (does not indicate a draft content change).
Added in: [`release-2025-01`](/operations/releases/release-2025-01/).

Represented in the UI with a checkbox which you can toggle on/off.

If you want to have the value set to `true` during document creation, you can do that via [defaultMetadata](/reference/project-config/content-types/llms.txt#default-metadata) in your project config.
