models: a model its maker lists with a thinking switch alone takes no borrowed levels, and the gateway sends it no more than high (#214 Moody-Max: opencode 的 mimo-v2.6 Flash 你这边设置的默认推理强度是 max 导致400报错)
settings: portable mode — a data folder beside magpie keeps everything magpie keeps (#508, suixinex) — like VS Code's portable mode, a folder named "data" (or a file named ".portable", the data folder then made beside it) next to magpie makes it keep all its own files there instead of the user's profile. Where magpie keeps its files is now decided in one place, internal/appdir: Config() (~/.config/magpie, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/magpie; portable: data/), Cache() (~/.cache/magpie, $XDG_CACHE_HOME/magpie; portable: data/cache) and SystemCache() (the OS's cache folder, which the library's market lists and an update staged where magpie may not write used; portable: data/cache). settings.Dir()/Path(), provider.Path(), profile.Path(), the models.dev catalog, the exchange rate and the plugin market cache go through it, and everything built on them follows: providers, logins and saved accounts' folders, usage ledger, routing history and request archive, plugins, library, backups, sync state and lock, caller keys, redact key, stats. "Beside magpie" is the folder holding the executable with links followed; for a Mac app the folder holding Magpie.app (inside the bundle would break its signature), and for an AppImage the folder holding the .AppImage, not where it is mounted. The decision is made once, at start: an update moves the running copy aside (into .magpie-update on a Mac, to magpie.exe.old on Windows) and its files must not move with it; the updated copy replaces the executable or bundle only, so the data folder beside it is left alone. A portable magpie doesn't copy an old dial install's folders in. Not moved, as they aren't magpie's own: the agents' configs (~/.claude, ~/.codex…), the sign-ins agents keep in the system keychain (a saved Claude account's Claude Code keychain item is named after its folder's path on a Mac, so a portable folder moved elsewhere or to another Mac signs that account in again), autostart and link-handler registrations, and temporary folders. The single-instance id already covers the config folder, so a portable and an installed magpie run side by side, but the gateway port is one. Settings shows the config folder as portable. TestResolve (data folder, .portable, a file named data, a Mac bundle), TestResolveSymlinkedExe, TestResolveAppImage (Linux), TestFolders and TestPortableSettings (Path() lands in the data folder, Save writes there, ~/.config/magpie untouched); TestPortableSettings fails without the change (Path() is ~/.config/magpie/settings.json), TestResolveSymlinkedExe without following links. A nogui build run from a folder with data/ under a sandbox HOME wrote profiles.json, cli-identity.json and cache/models.json into data/ and nothing of magpie's into HOME. go vet ./internal/..., go build -tags nogui ./... (darwin, GOOS=linux), GOOS=windows go build ./..., go test -tags nogui ./... pass.
catalog: fetched again each day magpie stays open, and sooner when a call's model has no price, so a model models.dev lists after magpie started is priced (#224 Koohoko: gpt-6.1-sol shows no cost) — the models.dev catalog, where list prices come from, was fetched only at the app's start (when older than a week), so a magpie left open, or
magpie serve, never learned a new model's price. KeepFresh (internal/catalog/fresh.go), run by the app's backend and by magpie serve, looks every hour and fetches when the cache is older than a day; a call whose model has no price asks for a fetch (catalog.Missing, from usage's pricer) when the cache is older than six hours and none was tried in that time, only in a process keeping it fresh, so CLI commands and tests never fetch on their own. Loading and Reset now share a mutex instead of a sync.Once reassigned under a running Do, which a background Sync could hit while a call was being priced. Tested with fresh_test.go against a fake models.dev in a temp XDG_CACHE_HOME: stale after 25h and not before, Missing fetching nothing when not keeping, fetching once when keeping and gpt-6.1-sol then priced, and not again; passes under -race (failed under -race with the Once). go vet, go build -tags nogui (and GOOS=linux, GOOS=windows) and go test -tags nogui ./... pass.

providers: a Remote magpie provider uses another computer's shared magpie, each request translated at most once (Jorben on Discord: 远程 magpie / magpie 接力) — a custom provider pointed at another magpie has one API per address and couldn't know which API each model's own provider serves, so a request was translated on both computers (Chat → Messages here, then again there). magpie's /v1/models now tells each model's native_endpoints (the APIs its provider serves it on; none for a routing group) and its image input, and reads them, with max_output_tokens and supported_reasoning_levels, from a list; the new remote-magpie preset takes the other magpie's address however typed (host:port, /v1, /v1/messages) for all three APIs and lists all its models, its user's choice already. Add sheet tile with the address field and a hint to Settings → Share on local network; CLI: magpie provider add remote-magpie <key> url=http://<ip>:3425. Checked with two sandbox magpies over the LAN address with the key check on and a Messages-only fake upstream: Chat, Messages (streamed), count_tokens, Responses, a routing group and Gemini all reached it as /v1/messages, translated once. TestRemoteMagpieNativeAPI, TestFetchMagpieFields and TestRemoteMagpie fail without the change; remote-magpie.test.cjs (Chromium, WebKit, en/zh) added. go vet, go build -tags nogui (darwin, GOOS=linux), GOOS=windows go build, go test -tags nogui ./... pass but for TestCursorPluginContext, which fails on main (
1ce05f0) as well; click-scroll, old-webkit pass.
