Updating app settings from command line

I'm trying to find a way to update app settings from the command line.

Following are a sampling of the types of changes I'd like:
* disabling the Quick Access keyboard shortcut
* turning on the CLI integration
* enabling the SSH agent

I'm used to Mac applications exposing some types of configuration through the defaults tool, but it looks like ~/Library/Preferences/com.1password.1password.plist doesn't contain much, if any, of the configuration available via the settings panel in the app.

Have I missed something obvious? This functionality would help in setting up a (new) computer to match my configuration used elsewhere.

1Password Version: 8.10.33
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 14.4.1
Browser: Not Provided

cli

    jspagnola​ it looks like there was a similar ask in another community thread.  The response there lines up with what I had determine for my https://github.com/acourtneybrown/dotfiles/issues/222.  It looks like there were some of the config values that are not stored signed in the `settings.json` file, but in general, the only way sanctioned by 1Password is via the UI 🤮.

    Hi, were you able to find a workaround or get in contact with anyone about this? I'm looking for the exact same thing.
