yetone 17bf6a15ce routing: in Chinese, a provider row's "one key" is "一个 Key", and the caption under the map is said again in the new language when the language changes — it was set as text, so one said before Chinese was applied stayed English ("DeepSeek goes first.") while everything round it was Chinese

agent

gateway: an image sent to a model that can't see is dealt with before it goes out, and one a tool returned no longer ends the chat (#56)

backup

profiles: a saved profile keeps the Library's setup too, and switching to it switches that as well (#29) — which agents get each MCP server and skill, and the instructions (the shared text, the agents it is written to, what each gets besides), so moving from one profile to another left the tools and the instructions as they were and only the models followed. A profile keeps them under "library" beside its agent.field keys; the servers and skills themselves stay in the library, a profile only names them. Applying one sets the models as before, then gives each server and skill to the agents it names and puts the instructions back, written into the agents as any Library change is, their files and the library's own instructions kept aside first; one removed from the library since is skipped and said so, one added since keeps its agents (the profile knows nothing of it, and switching it off would lose it for good). A profile saved before, or while the library was empty, carries none and leaves the library as it is. magpie profiles, the TUI and the panel's chips say what a profile gives out (+ library: 2 servers, 1 skill, instructions)

catalog

provider: a relay given without its /v1 — one that lists its models at base/v1/models but not at the base — has /v1 added to its chat and responses bases when its models are fetched, since the gateway sends chat to the base as written and its requests 404'd while its models showed; and an Antigravity account Google gave no project says so plainly (with Google's reason, when it gives one) instead of "Usage unavailable" alone

claudebridge

gateway: a Grok subscription (SuperGrok, X Premium+) works like a Cursor one — magpie runs the signed-in Grok Build CLI in a home of its own (none of the user's hooks, skills, rules or MCP servers; only search_tool/use_tool, reaching magpie's MCP tools), borrowing the user's token through magpie grok-token without touching their sign-in; the add sheet has a Grok tile that signs in with grok login's device code

codexcat

agents: a model through magpie tells Pi, Crush, omp and Codex how much it holds, and a provider added, edited or removed reaches the model lists agents keep in files of their own — the catalog carried no context window, so Pi took every model through magpie for a 128K one (a CLIProxyAPI's gpt-5.5 holds 922K) and Crush for a 200K one; each model now carries models.dev's input limit, else its context, looked up by bare id as most of the providers serving it give it (a proxy's "openai/gpt-5.4", "gpt-5.4(high)", "glm-4.6:free" find it too; a group holds the least of its members'). And those lists were written only when a model was picked: Codex's magpie-models.json, Pi's models.json, OpenCode's, Crush's, Command Code's, omp's and Hermes' provider blocks and dsh's llm-deepseek entry kept the catalog as it was then, so a provider added later never showed. Saving a provider, a vendor's list fetched anew or models.dev synced now rewrites each one magpie wrote, where it differs, and the app does once at start-up; a Codex signed in to ChatGPT, which asks the gateway, kept its cached list under the backend's ETag, which a change of magpie's never changed — the ETag (and a reply's X-Models-Etag) now carries a tag of magpie's models, and a cache from before a change is aged so the next Codex asks again

edit

library: MCP servers, skills and instructions are kept once in magpie and given to any agent from one place, with a market to find and add them (#29). Each agent reads MCP servers and skills from files of its own and in a format of its own, so one server was set up again in Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Pi, Goose, Cursor, Copilot CLI and Crush. The Library view keeps each once: a server is added (stdio, http or sse, its env and headers) and switched on per agent with its icon, and magpie writes it into each agent's config in that agent's format, leaving what the agent has of its own as it is; a server or skill an agent already has is shown, to bring into the library. A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md, kept in the library from GitHub (owner/repo, or a link to a folder in one; updated from it later) or linked from a folder on this machine, and linked into each agent's skills folder. The instructions every agent reads (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, GEMINI.md…) can be kept as one too. The market offers checked MCP servers first, then the official MCP Registry's, filled in from what the registry says each needs (keys asked for in a form, never guessed), and skills.sh's most installed skills with what each says it is for; each shows its real icon (the vendor's own, else its GitHub owner's), fetched through magpie only for the icons the market or the library gave out, and an added server or skill keeps its icon in the library. What magpie changes in an agent's files is backed up first

gateway

gateway: a Claude Code request that doesn't ask for thinking goes out with thinking off — Anthropic's API assumes that, but DeepSeek's Anthropic endpoint thinks by default, so the session-title requests Claude Code sends without it spent ~100 tokens thinking before a 10-token title; and output_config's effort becomes reasoning_effort on an OpenAI-style upstream only when thinking was asked for

library

library: Pi is given MCP servers (#58), and the page no longer jumps when it's opened (#59) — Pi has no MCP of its own, and the extensions that give it one (pi-mcp-adapter, pi-mcp-extension) both read the agent folder's mcp.json, so the library writes Pi's servers there, with the transport under both names they read it by (transport, httpTransport) and a lifecycle or anything else the user set there kept; its chips say it reads them through the extension. And the page was drawn anew each time it opened, and on each change, with the fade a tab gets when it's shown, and its text boxes were fitted a frame after they were drawn, so everything under them moved: a tab fades in only when another is picked, and a box is fitted before the page is painted

netproxy

windows: the desktop app no longer opens a console window for every command it runs (#54) — it is linked as a GUI program and has no console, so each console CLI it started (devin auth status and models list, devin acp for every Devin turn, claude, codex, cursor-agent and grok probes and runs, grok login) was given a new console by Windows, and a Windows Terminal window with it, some every few seconds while the app sat idle. Every command magpie runs is now made through internal/proc, which starts it with CREATE_NO_WINDOW when magpie has no console of its own: the child gets a console without a window, and its output, which magpie always pipes back, arrives as before. A magpie run in a terminal (magpie serve, the TUI, the desktop app started from one with a command) has one, and its children share it as they did, so Ctrl+C there still reaches them. The relaunch after an update keeps its DETACHED_PROCESS, added to rather than replacing the flags it was made with, and a test fails on any command made with os/exec directly, so a new one can't bring the windows back

settings

agents: the Agents list, in the window and the tray panel, is in the order you put it in and shows only the agents you want — an agent's logo is its handle: drag it to move the row, click it (or right-click the row) for Move up, Move down and Hide, or Alt+↑/↓ from the keyboard; a hidden agent folds away at the bottom under "N hidden" (in the fold with the unused ones, "Show N more"), and Show brings it back, kept in view even while nothing is set on it. The order and who is hidden live in magpie's settings.json (agentOrder, agentsHidden, agentsShown), never in an agent's files; an agent installed later follows the ordered ones in magpie's own order. magpie ls and the TUI keep the order too and list a hidden agent last, dimmed and marked, rather than dropping it, so nothing goes missing from a listing; magpie agents lists them all as before

usage

agent + usage: each agent says what its User-Agent begins with, beside its name and icon, and the gateway tells requests apart by that — usage kept a list of its own, which had to be kept in step with the agents by hand and wasn't (DeepSeek Harness, omp and Command Code were missing from it, so they were drawn with no logo); a new agent is now known by its requests as soon as it is described
