Two enhancements requested after live-validating PR #430 against a real llama.cpp server: 1. Model picker dialog. Picking a Run-menu Custom Endpoints entry used to apply the endpoint's defaultModelId (or the first discovered model) silently. Now, via the new selectCustomModelEntry() (session-ui.js): - exactly one discovered model launches straight away, same as before - two or more open a new #customModelPickModal listing every discovered model; defaultModelId (if set) is marked but never auto-chosen, since the point of asking is letting ONE launch deliberately differ from the saved default, not just confirming it The endpoint is re-fetched at click time rather than trusting anything cached from the dropdown's own render, since the model list can have changed (the sweep below, or a settings-panel edit) since it opened. runCustomModelEntry() itself — the actual launch, routed through run() for the in-flight lock, snapshot-guarded against applying to the wrong session — is unchanged; it now just always receives an explicit model id from one of these two paths instead of computing one itself. 2. Periodic re-discovery. Every saved endpoint's models now refresh automatically every 5 minutes in the background (CUSTOM_MODEL_REDISCOVER_INTERVAL_MS, server.ts, registered the same way as the Codex plan-usage poll it sits beside — this.cleanup.setInterval, off under testMode), so a model the server starts or stops serving shows up without another manual "Discover" click. The manual POST .../discover-models route and the new refreshAllCustomModelHosts() sweep (custom-model-routes.ts) now share one pure merge step (applyDiscoveredModels: stamps lastDiscoveredAt, drops a defaultModelId that no longer appears) rather than two copies that could drift. The sweep is best-effort per host — one endpoint being unreachable on a cycle never blocks the others — and re-reads the store before each host's write, keyed by id, so a concurrent edit or delete from the settings panel always wins over a sweep that started before it. Tests: test/custom-model-endpoint-rediscovery.test.ts is a new, dedicated file for the sweep (kept separate from custom-model-routes.test.ts because that file's data dir is shared across every test in it — one temp HOME per FILE, not per test — which would make a sweep-touches-every-host assertion meaningless there). test/custom-model-run-menu-ui.test.ts gained a new describe block driving the real picker modal through JSDOM: single-model bypass, multi-model dialog with the default marked-not-chosen, picking a row closes the modal and launches with that exact model, the endpoint re-fetch, and the two "vanished by click time" toast paths. Docs: docs/custom-model-endpoints.md, docs/wiki/Custom-Model-Endpoints.md, docs/api-reference.md and CLAUDE.md's dense feature paragraph all updated — the last of these also caught up two sentences that had gone stale after the draft-review fixes landed (the picker routes through run() now, not a raw run*() call).

# Custom Model Endpoints
|
|
|
|
Point a harness at your own OpenAI-compatible server instead of its native cloud backend, for
|
|
one session at a time. "Custom endpoint" covers **local** hardware (llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM,
|
|
a home GPU rig, DGX Spark, Strix Halo) and **cloud** services (Azure AI Foundry's
|
|
OpenAI-compatible endpoint, OpenRouter, a company gateway) alike, anything answering
|
|
`GET /v1/models` and `POST /v1/chat/completions` in the standard shape.
|
|
|
|
**Off by default.** Turn it on in App Settings → Models → **Custom model endpoints**.
|
|
|
|
## Adding an endpoint
|
|
|
|
Still in App Settings → Models → Custom model endpoints:
|
|
|
|
1. **+ Add endpoint** — give it an id, a label, and the base URL (`http://192.168.1.50:8080`,
|
|
say). An API key is optional; most local servers don't check one.
|
|
2. **Discover** — fetches the endpoint's own model list over `GET /v1/models` and stores it.
|
|
3. Pick a **default model** from what was discovered. This is the model the Run-menu entry
|
|
applies directly when only one model is discovered; with two or more, it's just the one
|
|
pre-marked in the picker dialog described below, not a silent default.
|
|
|
|
Endpoint management is admin-only in multi-user mode, the same as remote hosts and Docker
|
|
hosts — these are machine-level infra, not a per-user setting.
|
|
|
|
**Model lists refresh themselves.** Every saved endpoint is re-discovered automatically every
|
|
5 minutes in the background, so a model the server starts serving later — or stops serving —
|
|
shows up without another manual click of **Discover**. One endpoint being unreachable on a
|
|
given cycle (powered off, wrong network) never blocks the others from refreshing.
|
|
|
|
## Running a session against one
|
|
|
|
With the setting on and at least one endpoint carrying a discovered model, the **Run**
|
|
dropdown grows a **Custom Endpoints** section: one entry per harness that can redirect to a
|
|
custom endpoint, per saved endpoint, e.g. "Claude Code (llama.cpp)". Picking one starts a
|
|
session on that harness exactly the way its own entry would. It is a one-off "try this
|
|
endpoint" action, not a sticky mode — the plain **Run** button still means "this harness,
|
|
native cloud" afterward, and a fresh session never inherits whatever the last one was
|
|
pointed at.
|
|
|
|
**Which model it uses depends on how many the endpoint has discovered.** With exactly one,
|
|
the session launches straight away on that model — nothing to choose. With two or more, a
|
|
small dialog asks which one to use for this launch before starting the session; the
|
|
endpoint's default model, if set, is marked but not auto-picked, so a launch can deliberately
|
|
use a different one without changing the saved default.
|
|
|
|
Applying a selection **restarts the harness's process in place** — same tab, same
|
|
conversation where the harness supports resuming one, fresh environment. That restart is
|
|
necessary, not incidental: every supported harness reads its endpoint config at process
|
|
start, never per turn, so there is no live hot-swap while a turn is running.
|
|
|
|
Entries are hidden entirely for a session in a **remote (SSH) or Docker case** — support for
|
|
redirecting those hasn't landed yet, see below. The picker also only appears in the desktop
|
|
**Run** dropdown; the phone home screen builds its own run picker separately and does not
|
|
currently offer these entries.
|
|
|
|
## Which harnesses actually work
|
|
|
|
| Harness | Status |
|
|
| ------- | ------ |
|
|
| **Claude Code, opencode, Pi, Grok, OMP** | Verified end-to-end against a real local server. |
|
|
| **Codex** | Config is correct, but Codex only speaks the Responses API, which llama.cpp-style servers don't implement. A protocol gap, not a Codeman bug. |
|
|
| **Gemini** | Fails with an auth error gemini-cli raises once redirected. Unresolved; don't rely on it yet. |
|
|
| **DeepSeek** | Reaches the server but gets a consistent 404. Root cause not identified. |
|
|
| **Antigravity** | No known custom-endpoint mechanism at all. Not offered. |
|
|
|
|
Which harnesses show up in the Run-menu picker is read live off Codeman's own CLI registry,
|
|
not a fixed list here, so this table can go stale before this page does — a greyed-out or
|
|
missing entry is the more current answer.
|
|
|
|
## What it does not do
|
|
|
|
- **No remote or Docker sessions yet.** Both restart their agent differently under the hood
|
|
(reattaching a durable tmux session rather than relaunching the process), so redirecting
|
|
them needs its own plumbing that hasn't been built.
|
|
- **No live hot-swap mid-conversation.** Applying a selection always restarts the process.
|
|
- **No button to un-point a session from the UI yet.** Clearing back to native cloud is an
|
|
HTTP call (`POST .../custom-model {"clear": true}`) or deleting the session; the settings
|
|
panel manages saved endpoints, not what a running session is currently pointed at.
|
|
- **Nothing is shared with your real cloud credentials.** The endpoint's own key, if any,
|
|
never touches your Anthropic/OpenAI/Google login — a custom endpoint is a separate,
|
|
explicit choice per session.
|
|
|
|
## Security
|
|
|
|
An endpoint's base URL can't point at a link-local or cloud-metadata address (both at save
|
|
time and against the address it actually resolves to), the same guard Web Tabs uses for
|
|
saved dashboards. Endpoint records and any per-session config files a harness needs are
|
|
written with owner-only permissions. See
|
|
[custom-model-endpoints-plan.md](https://github.com/Ark0N/Codeman/blob/master/docs/custom-model-endpoints-plan.md)
|
|
in the repository for the full design reasoning, including why this feature closed a
|
|
pre-existing gap in how session environment overrides were guarded rather than opening a new
|
|
one.
