What are they, what do they do, is there a manual somewhere? The only one I need currently is whatever tells the game a certain food can be eaten without risk of food poisoning, but I’d love to know what they are for the future…

I don’t have the code handy right now, but I think there’s a text file in code\_docs/ (now just docs/) that lists them all.

I don’t actually think that there is a flag for that. Rather the game just assumes that whatever you are eating won’t poison you unless that poison value of zero is overwritten somewhere (for example in water this happens when you gather it).
