The Models page could name a provider's key and little else. Adding an
OpenAI-compatible gateway meant opening $DSH_HOME/settings.yaml and
knowing the profile shape; correcting a stale context window meant the
same. This layer puts both on the page: a card that declares a route
pi-ai does not ship — id, endpoint, protocol, key, models — and a model
list on the pi-ai editor that can ask the provider what it serves and
adopt the answer.
It follows the DeepSeek catalog editor that landed in #1050 rather than
inventing a second look for the same job. Both editors now share the
section shell and heading, the danger-tinted delete, the add-model
button, the empty state, the per-row validator that names a bad row by
its position, and one K/M capacity vocabulary — 256K and 1M are read and
spelled back, while settings.yaml still stores plain token counts. The
row type is structurally open like that editor's, so a profile field
this card does not edit survives an edit here.
Three of that editor's decisions replaced weaker ones this branch had
made. Inheritance now reads the composition base rather than the
effective value, which would echo an override back the moment a reset
dropped it. Validation names the offending row instead of stating a
blanket problem. And emptying the list is no longer conflated with
handing the catalog back to the adapter — those are separate acts, with
separate affordances.
The create write carries the revision the card opened at, so a route
another tab declared meanwhile is a conflict rather than a silent
overwrite of its profile.
All agent/* and agent-loop/config-start-failed events take one payload
object carrying the agent subject; waterfall/serial payloads require a
signal and keep next as the final argument. PreStepContext and
RequestFailureContext are unfolded into payloads and retired.
goal/changed follows the same shape so agentEvents keeps its listener
error containment. ReactLoopAgent builds its scope carrier once in the
constructor. Regenerates scope resolvers, tool-cordis api catalog, and
docs catalogs; updates all affected listeners, tests, and the
core-data-structures docs (en + zh).
Move the claimed-message notification loop out of the loop's pre-step
into Inbox.claim(target, turn), so the step-boundary operation publishes
its own claimed notifications like insertions and discards do.
Master polished two Chinese sentences this branch also edits — an
expectation is now 陈旧 rather than 过期, and the package-root sentence
spells out 包（package）. Taking master's wording alongside this branch's
own additions leaves the recorded pair fingerprints stale, so they are
re-recorded against the merged text.
llm.discoverModels was reachable from any declared trusted host. The
method takes a caller-supplied baseURL and makes the host issue a GET to
it, then reports the status or the parsed body — so on a LAN deployment
an anonymous caller had a probe for whatever the host can reach and the
browser cannot, plus a path that carries a draft credential. The
PRIVILEGED_METHODS doc already states the rule this broke: trustedHosts
is a DNS-rebinding fence, not authentication, so the configuration plane
stays loopback-same-origin. It is in that set now, asserted both against
the hand-built fence and over real HTTP beside the catalog reads that
deliberately stay reachable.
supportsDiscovery and listModelDiscoveryNamespaces are gone. The field
was required on the wire and read by nobody: its own contract said a
surface should offer the action "instead of naming an adapter family it
would have to hardcode", while the surface hardcodes llm-pi-ai in two
places and gates the button on whether there is anything to probe. Its
shape did not fit the second caller either — the create card has no row
to read a per-row field from. Keeping a required field alive for a
consumer that may never arrive costs every producer and fixture a value
nobody consults, which is exactly how the fixtures drifted. The registry
that fed it had no other production consumer, so registration and
disposal are now observed through the offer itself.
The Agent Note claimed the key is never logged, which the wire schema
beside it already contradicts, and predated both the provider field and
the catalog-answer path. The two new public types pointed at core.md
without a type-equiv block or manifest entry, so the generated service
catalog named documentation that did not exist.
Clicking "fetch available models" on a built-in provider went to the
network. That is the wrong source: pi-ai's registry is the authoritative
list for its own providers, and it carries the context windows and output
caps a `GET /models` listing does not disclose. Asking api.deepseek.com
what DeepSeek serves is both slower and worse, and against an endpoint
that answers a different shape it failed outright.
Interrogation is still keyed by settings namespace — the provider being
added has no route — but the request may now name the route it is
editing. An adapter that already describes that route answers from what
it knows, needs no endpoint at all, and never touches the network; only a
route the catalog does not describe reaches the wire, and one naming no
endpoint is told to set one or enter its models by hand.
`ConfigurableProviderView` gained `supportsDiscovery` so a surface offers
the action where a namespace can answer instead of hardcoding an adapter
family.
Three narrower corrections ride along. Discovery no longer claims Azure
or Codex: Azure authenticates with an `api-key` header and an
`api-version` query despite its OpenAI lineage, and Codex uses OAuth, so
both reported an authentication failure as a provider with no models.
Cancellation during the body read escaped as the raw abort reason rather
than a coded ABORTED. And the schema comment claiming the probe key is
never logged overstated it: the host neither stores nor returns it, but
it rides the client's outgoing envelope like every other secret-bearing
payload, and redacting that tap is a configuration-plane-wide change.
Once a pi-ai route became a declaration rather than a catalog lookup,
adding an OpenAI-compatible gateway meant knowing its model ids up
front. Most such endpoints publish that list at `GET /models`, but no
seam operation could ask: every one is keyed by a registered provider
route, and the provider being added has no route, no stored profile,
and no stored credential — the endpoint and key are values in a form.
Interrogation is therefore keyed by settings namespace, which a
configuration surface already holds from the configurable-provider
directory. `registerModelDiscovery` offers it per namespace,
`discoverModels` asks, and the request carries the draft itself. The
reply is candidates, not a catalog: every field but the id is optional
because most listings disclose nothing else, and adopting one is a
settings write like any other. Nothing here reads or writes settings or
credentials, so `settings.yaml` still decides what a route serves.
`llm.discoverModels` carries the same draft over the wire. Its apiKey is
the third and last payload a secret may ride, and it is never stored,
logged, or echoed; every refusal folds into `model-discovery-failed`,
naming the endpoint asked but never the credential offered.
The pi-ai side is a plain GET for OpenAI-compatible protocols only —
their listing shape is the one gateways, self-hosted servers, and the
official endpoints agree on. Others say so, sending the user to
hand-entry rather than reporting a guessed shape as an empty provider.
The reply is read under a four-megabyte ceiling held on the bytes
actually received, because the endpoint is a URL the user typed.
- turn boundary now returns false for an empty admitted batch (claimed
input removed before the wake) instead of opening a turn and spending a
model call on nothing; the step boundary already had the symmetric guard.
- a max-token step stays sticky when steering or injected work continues
the turn: a later completed step no longer downgrades the outcome,
matching the TurnEndReasonMap contract.
- session/queue wire schema accepts the context placement (previously the
zod union rejected injected-context snapshots wholesale and the client
silently dropped the whole frame); schema tests cover all placements.
- headless runs settle at whole-agent idle instead of the first turn/end,
honoring the one-shot idle-to-idle contract.
- flush JSDoc names the real callers (checkpoint policy, goal-session,
teardown, self-flushing consumers); apiproxy zh README loses its stale
duplicate history section; ACP note/README record the delivered error
rejection and turnless-cancelled behaviors.
- gen-cordis-catalog / gen-persistence-catalog / gen-doc-graphs after the
error-reason and steering/message changes (line anchors and event
producer/consumer graph drifted).
- verify-translation-pairing --write --all: every bilingual pair touched
by the PR (agent notes, session/core docs, READMEs) plus the merge.
- queue-actions preserved golden re-recorded against the rebuilt client
(branch disabled on non-completed-turn tails is back in effect).
next-step items now split by origin: user-origin messages keep the
'steering' placement, while agent.inject context (approval notices, task
completion notices, attached snapshots) carries a new 'context' placement
that no surface renders until it is claimed as a durable user/message
context card. Widen the placement unions on the wire and in the client
runtime, add a projection test case, and document the split in the
apiproxy/ui-conversation READMEs and the web-steer chrome agent note.
Steer, inject, and followup now land as durable user/message events on the
session surface; the steering/message event type and its ConversationNode
kind are removed from the client projection. Update tests, docs, generated
catalogs, and agent notes to match, and align the steering e2e fixture and
prompt inventory assertions with the durable user/message landing.
The live fast-path fence and the raced-collision catch duplicated the same
subagent-ownership classification, tripping the duplication gate. Extract
`fencedLiveAgent` so both paths resolve one live identity through the
fence identically.
