Fixes model discovery so ClinePass and MiMo Free stop showing an HTTP 4xx discovery failure on hover, and adds recovery guidance to the Models page for providers whose discovery genuinely fails (for example xAI HTTP 400, prompting re-login for OAuth providers).

What changed

  • ClinePass and MiMo Free now use the maintained static catalog. Neither documents an OpenAI-style GET /models route, so the proxy no longer probes an unsupported endpoint and no longer misleads with a 4xx discovery failure.
  • A registry-only capability flag disables the Discover models from provider toggle for these providers on the Models and Providers pages, with an explanation that a maintained static catalog is used.
  • Models page recovery guidance: a failed discovery now shows the reason plus how to recover; OAuth providers (for example xAI) prompt to re-login, otherwise it points to provider settings and notes configured models stay available.
  • MiMo Free legacy auth repair: a canonical row previously persisted as local is repaired to registry-owned key auth consistently across enrichment, request routing, and management DTOs, while custom destinations and explicit credentials are preserved.
  • No invented capability for cline-pass/qwen3.8-max: the new model is no longer auto-classified as text-only / no-vision where the gateway does not document it.

Verification

  • Focused changed-path suites pass (ClinePass, MiMo Free, registry parity, router, management DTO, GUI models/discovery tests).
  • typecheck, privacy scan, GUI tests, GUI lint, GUI i18n, GUI build, and docs site build all pass.
  • The repository-wide bun run test on Windows is reported incomplete: an unrelated pre-existing storage-policy worker race timed out once and a Bun Windows runtime crash occurred in an aggregate run; that same storage test passed 3/3 in isolation and does not touch this diff.
  • Security: Codex Security diff scan and an independent review both reported no findings; credential/destination boundaries and DTO redaction were specifically checked.

This PR is a draft and includes a UI screenshot of the Models discovery change.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added maintained static model catalogs for providers without live discovery.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change makes ClinePass and MiMo Free use maintained static catalogs, repairs legacy authentication and discovery settings, validates MiMo Free endpoints, exposes discovery capability metadata, and adds authentication-aware model-discovery recovery guidance across the GUI, API, tests, and documentation.

Changes

Provider discovery and static catalogs

Layer / File(s) Summary
Registry static-catalog authority
src/providers/registry.ts, src/providers/derive.ts, src/router.ts, src/adapters/mimo-free.ts, tests/*provider*.test.ts
ClinePass and MiMo Free use static catalogs. Registry enrichment repairs legacy MiMo Free authentication and disables unsupported live discovery. The MiMo Free adapter accepts only the canonical endpoint.
Provider route and DTO normalization
src/server/auth-cors.ts, src/server/management/provider-routes.ts, tests/provider-discovery-*.test.ts, tests/provider-static-registry-management.test.ts, tests/server-auth.test.ts
Provider listings and sanitized DTOs expose registry-derived discovery capability. Management routes reject unsupported discovery patches and return static-catalog responses.
GUI discovery state and recovery messaging
gui/src/pages/*, gui/src/models-groups.ts, gui/src/provider-workspace/*, gui/src/components/provider-workspace/*, gui/src/i18n/*, gui/tests/*
The GUI passes authentication mode into discovery messaging, disables unsupported discovery controls, and provides localized reauthentication or settings guidance.
Static-catalog documentation
docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/providers.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/web-dashboard.md
Documentation describes static provider catalogs and discovery-failure recovery guidance.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to bff98

Renamed ClinePass or MiMo-Free configurations may show inconsistent model-discovery capability state between provider views, potentially leaving an incorrect discovery toggle or message. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on this bounded UI/configuration consistency risk.

The static-catalog portion is soundly traced: src/providers/derive.ts:397-405, src/router.ts:254-351, and src/codex/catalog/provider-fetch.ts:1095-1100 consistently force canonical ClinePass and MiMo Free rows to the maintained catalog without performing an unsupported /models request. The new route and management tests cover the legacy MiMo local repair, stale live-discovery state, custom-destination preservation, and DTO redaction. The completed Linux/macOS/Windows CI matrix is green, and no token or credential value is exposed by this diff.

[P1] gui/src/pages/models-provider-hints.tsx:28-29 labels the failure CTA "Open provider login" for OAuth providers, but its handler is still only navigateHash("providers"). That opens the generic Providers page; it neither selects the failed provider nor starts its OAuth flow, so a user following the new xAI recovery instruction cannot actually re-login from this CTA. Either keep the existing "Open provider settings" label, or pass the provider identity and wire the action to the provider-specific login surface. Add a behavioral click test — gui/tests/models-empty-provider.test.tsx currently checks only rendered text, not where the CTA leads.

The PR also remains blocked by its failed enforce-target check: the repository requires a UI screenshot in the PR description, and committing docs-site/public/pr-screenshots/provider-discovery-recovery.png does not satisfy that. Embed the screenshot in the PR body, then rerun the gate and request the skipped CodeRabbit review.

[Repository bug audit · 2026-08-14]

The static-catalog/discovery recovery work is useful, but the reviewed diff contains a broader auth-mode behavior change that is not safely scoped to MiMo Free: ProviderSettings changes the fallback from item.authMode ?? (item.keyOptional ? "local" : "key") to item.authMode ?? "key" for every provider.

That can silently make other key-optional local/custom providers appear dirty or switch their UI default. Please keep the legacy repair at the canonical MiMo registry/server-enrichment boundary, or add an exhaustive provider-settings matrix proving no other key-optional provider changes behavior. Rebase afterward and rerun GUI provider-settings, registry parity, management DTO, model discovery, i18n, and build checks.

Cherry-pick partially applied (test file resolved) but remaining commits conflict with provider discovery changes already in dev. Recommend a scoped re-implementation.
