You can define most of the command line options in the config file. For example:
  agent = some_agent/1.0     # --agent
  proxy = http://foo:1234    # --proxy
  no-verify                  # --no-verify
  debug                      # --debug
 
 

Note that you can also define QUVI_HOME and use it instead.
