yetone 2a57b7bb60 tui: magpie tui serves the gateway while it is open when no other magpie does, so agents it connected reach it in WSL (gnayiab on X) ...

In WSL, with only magpie tui and Cursor's subscription, Claude Code said ECONNREFUSED. The terminal set agents to the gateway but never served it, and nothing listened at 127.0.0.1:3425 unless the app, magpie web or magpie serve ran.

magpie tui now serves the gateway in its own process while it is open, as the app does, whenever no magpie answers at its address. One that does (the app, magpie web, magpie serve) keeps it. The terminal looks every 15s and takes the gateway up once that one is gone.

The status line says "● gateway <url> · served while magpie tui is open" when it has nothing else to say, or "✗ gateway not running: <why>" when the port couldn't be had. On quitting after serving, it says the gateway stopped with it and what serves it otherwise. The usage text and docs/reference.md say so too.

Tested in a sandbox HOME on port 3486 with a real DeepSeek key: magpie tui alone answered /v1/models; Claude Code (sandbox HOME) set to deepseek/deepseek-flash ran a Bash tool turn through it; the status line showed the gateway; q printed the note and freed the port.

TestTUIServesTheGatewayWhenNoneDoes (serves, status, lets go at quit) and TestTUILeavesTheGatewayToAnotherAndTakesItUp (leaves another magpie's gateway alone, takes it up once it is gone) are new and pass 3x under -race; they don't build without the change.

go vet, go build (darwin, GOOS=linux nogui, GOOS=windows) and go test -tags nogui ./... under a temp HOME pass.

subsystems

plugin, gui, docs: Plugins says which plugins are providers and which are middleware, lists the community's ready-made middleware, and edits a middleware's options in its row (the owner) — the Plugins page still read as if every plugin were a subscription, and nothing showed what a middleware does or let you set its options without editing plugins.json. Every Discover card and Installed row now carries a Provider or Middleware chip (both for a plugin that is both), also for one that is off (isMiddleware/middlewareOnly from the server, read from its files); Discover splits into Subscriptions and Gateway middleware ("runs in magpie's gateway on what every agent sends and gets back, whichever provider serves it"), the latter from market entries with "kind": "middleware" and no providers or icon (the built-in market.json lists the five new @magpie-community/middleware-* packages: param-override, model-map, system-prompt, word-guard, think-tags, mostly New API's channel settings with the same JSON). A middleware row has Options: a JSON editor in the row, starting from the package's magpie.options example when none are set, which validates it is an object, saves (POST /api/plugins/options) for the next request, clears, and cancels with Esc. magpie plugin options takes a short name (model-map for @magpie-community/middleware-model-map; plugin.ShortName, also in SetOptions). en/zh/ja/de. Docs: usemagpie.ai/docs/plugins (en/zh/ja) gains Ready-made middleware and Options and the registry's kind; reference.md, both READMEs and docs/subsystems/gateway-middleware.md likewise. Tested with a real DeepSeek account and real Claude Code through magpie web --gateway in a sandbox HOME, with all five installed and options set by short name: a mapped model named back, max_tokens capped, a prompt appended for claude only, word-guard's 400 and param-override's 403 in the agent's shape, <think> stripped from Chat and Responses streams and a whole Anthropic reply, reasoning_content moved into the text; /api/plugins showed the kinds and the example. TestSetOptionsShortName is new; TestBuiltinMarket checks a middleware entry has no providers or icon and no other kind. plugin-middleware.test.cjs (Chromium and WebKit, en and zh: the chips, Discover's two sections, the options editor with its errors, no select, no scroll, no left border) fails without the change; the other plugin tests and click-scroll pass in WebKit (plugin-market's section name updated; plugin-move fails only under parallel load and passes alone). go vet, go build (darwin, GOOS=linux nogui, GOOS=windows) and go test -tags nogui ./... under a temp HOME pass.
