fix(providers): recover static model discovery

[Wibias]

Summary

• make canonical ClinePass and MiMo Free use their maintained static model lists instead of probing unsupported model-list endpoints
• keep the current ClinePass catalogue intact, including the forward-looking cline-pass/glm-5.3, and add Cline's now-documented cline-pass/qwen3.8-max slug without inventing unverified context or vision metadata
• repair legacy canonical MiMo Free authMode: local or omitted auth to key at registry enrichment/routing time without replacing saved model selectors
• refuse custom destinations on the bespoke mimo-free adapter
• disable the Live Models toggle only for the exact canonical static-catalog transports
• preserve the existing key-optional auth fallback for every unrelated provider

Reimplementation of #1639

This reimplements the useful discovery-recovery work from #1639 on current dev instead of replaying its stale commits.

Two deliberate differences follow Jun's review and the current code:

1. The old global ProviderSettings fallback change is not included. Unrelated keyOptional providers keep item.authMode ?? (item.keyOptional ? "local" : "key").
2. The current dev ClinePass catalogue stays intact, including cline-pass/glm-5.3. The only catalogue refresh here is cline-pass/qwen3.8-max, which Cline now lists for ClinePass. Qwen3.8's context window and input modality remain unclassified because the ClinePass gateway does not document those capabilities yet.

Cline and ClinePass share the same API transport, so destination matching alone cannot safely classify renamed rows as ClinePass. Static-catalog authority is therefore limited to canonical provider id plus exact transport. Renamed/custom rows remain operator-owned.

Tests

Added/extended regression coverage for:

• ClinePass and MiMo Free static seeds
• ClinePass qwen3.8-max catalogue presence while leaving undocumented context/vision metadata unset
• normal Cline remaining live despite the shared destination
• legacy MiMo auth and discovery repair while preserving saved models
• same-named custom MiMo rows remaining custom
• the MiMo bespoke adapter rejecting custom destinations
• canonical ClinePass showing a disabled static Live Models control
• same-named custom MiMo keeping the control editable
• unrelated key-optional providers retaining the local UI fallback

This environment could not execute a local checkout, so GitHub Actions is the execution gate for this draft.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added static model catalogs for Cline Pass and MiMo Free, including the qwen3.8-max model.
  • Live model discovery is automatically disabled for supported static providers, while custom configurations retain it.
  • MiMo Free now validates its canonical endpoint and guides custom endpoints to the appropriate provider option.

• Bug Fixes

  • Corrected legacy authentication settings and stale discovery states.
  • Preserved saved models when live discovery is disabled.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Live model discovery is restricted to supported provider transports. ClinePass and MiMo Free use static catalogs, canonical endpoint checks, authentication repair, guarded routing, and disabled settings controls. Custom configurations retain live discovery.

Changes

Static model discovery

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Catalog and transport policy src/providers/static-model-discovery.ts, gui/src/provider-workspace/catalog.ts, src/adapters/mimo-free.ts	Adds canonical matching, discovery eligibility checks, catalog repair, and MiMo Free endpoint validation.
Provider derivation src/providers/derive.ts	Applies guarded registry matching, emits liveModels: false for static providers, and repairs matching state.
Routing and authentication repair src/router.ts	Filters registry models and repairs legacy MiMo Free authentication before routing.
Model catalog and validation src/providers/registry.ts, tests/cline-pass-provider.test.ts, tests/mimo-free-provider.test.ts, tests/provider-static-model-discovery.test.ts	Adds the ClinePass model and validates static catalogs, custom providers, authentication repair, and endpoint rejection.
Settings behavior gui/src/components/provider-workspace/ProviderSettings.tsx, gui/tests/provider-settings-live-models-provenance.test.tsx, gui/.eslint/i18n-allowlist.ts	Gates live model state, save behavior, reset behavior, discard behavior, and the settings control.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to e66f8

The static catalog change currently contains a duplicated declaration that can make the GUI module fail to parse, blocking builds and merge readiness. The Live Models control can also temporarily disagree with backend repair when a custom MiMo row is changed to the canonical transport; both issues should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merging.

checkbox value are recomputed from the draft adapter and baseUrl, including
canonical MiMo transport detection, rather than persisted item fields. Keep a
separate persisted capability value from item for reset behavior, and use the
draft-derived capability to control the displayed checkbox state.
