Any variable that I declare in my zshrc is available in the shell as an environment variable. I don't want this to happen.
I tried putting the variables in a function and setting them as local, but then the function is available outside of the zshrc.
How can I make it so what happens in my zshrc stays in my zshrc?

precmd is executed before your prompt is displayed and is often used to set values in your $PROMPT . preexec is executed between when you press enter on a command prompt but before the command is executed. Each hook is an array of widgets which are executed by zsh.
The autoload command essentially instructs Zsh to register a function (called clock) using the contents of the clock file that is located in a directory somewhere along the fpath.
If you're using a recent version of zsh you can use an anonymous function:
function () { local xyz=abc # whatever } The function will be automatically executed and then thrown away, it exists only for scoping purposes.
This works for any sourced file, not only zshrc.
