How do I configure AI chat?

Model Selection

Open Settings β†’ AI to choose your model tier (@code, @balanced, @smart). The model selector is also available in the chat input bar.

Custom LLM Providers

Go to Settings β†’ Providers to add and switch between custom LLM providers (Z.AI, MiniMax, DeepSeek, Ollama, etc.). When a custom provider is active:

  • The chat UI shows a provider badge (e.g., Z.AI β€’ glm-5) instead of the model selector
  • Chat completions route through your chosen provider
  • Search, vision, and CDN continue using SDKRouter

Supported presets include Z.AI, MiniMax, Kimi K2, DeepSeek, Xiaomi MiMo, OpenRouter, Ollama, and LM Studio β€” or add any OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
