Model providers

​

Quick rules

• Model refs use provider/model (example: opencode/claude-opus-4-5).
• If you set agents.defaults.models, it becomes the allowlist.
• CLI helpers: clawdia onboard, clawdia models list, clawdia models set <provider/model>.

Local proxies (LM Studio, vLLM, LiteLLM, etc.)

{
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      model: { primary: "lmstudio/minimax-m2.1-gs32" },
      models: { "lmstudio/minimax-m2.1-gs32": { alias: "Minimax" } }
    }
  },
  models: {
    providers: {
      lmstudio: {
        baseUrl: "http://localhost:1234/v1",
        apiKey: "LMSTUDIO_KEY",
        api: "openai-completions",
        models: [
          {
            id: "minimax-m2.1-gs32",
            name: "MiniMax M2.1",
            reasoning: false,
            input: ["text"],
            cost: { input: 0, output: 0, cacheRead: 0, cacheWrite: 0 },
            contextWindow: 200000,
            maxTokens: 8192
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

• For custom providers, reasoning, input, cost, contextWindow, and maxTokens are optional. When omitted, Clawdia defaults to:
  • reasoning: false
  • input: ["text"]
  • cost: { input: 0, output: 0, cacheRead: 0, cacheWrite: 0 }
  • contextWindow: 200000
  • maxTokens: 8192
• Recommended: set explicit values that match your proxy/model limits.
