- Merge SSE metadata extraction into single pass (was iterating twice)
- Replace fragile substring-based context_length with explicit match
on known Gemini model IDs via gemini_context_length()
- Add missing models to regression test (8 models, not 5)
* fix: address Copilot PR review feedback
- Fix empty text part for assistant messages with tool calls
(curate_contents could drop entire model turn)
- Propagate cache_read/creation_input_tokens in complete_with_tools
- Log warning on save_credential failure instead of silently ignoring
- Fix doc comment to mention underscore in header name pattern
- Handle gemini-oauth (hyphen variant) in setup wizard display

Update parse_custom_headers doc comments to include underscore in the
header-name character class, matching the actual implementation.
Also fix formatting from merge.

* fix(gemini_oauth): curate_contents per-part filtering and dead code removal
Fix curate_contents to filter invalid parts individually instead of
dropping entire model turn sequences. Previously a single empty text
part would discard all consecutive model turns including valid
functionCall parts, breaking the tool-call flow.
Also remove unused MID_STREAM_* constants.

* style(gemini_oauth): rustfmt formatting [skip-regression-check]
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <[email protected]>
* fix(llm): support smart routing cheap model for gemini_oauth backend
Add explicit gemini_oauth handling in create_cheap_provider_for_backend()
to create a GeminiOauthProvider with the cheap model swapped in. Without
this, setting LLM_CHEAP_MODEL with gemini_oauth backend would fail with
a confusing "no registry provider config available" error.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <[email protected]>
* docs: add Gemini OAuth env vars to .env.example [skip-regression-check]
Document GEMINI_MODEL, GEMINI_CREDENTIALS_PATH, GEMINI_API_KEY, and
all extended generation config env vars in the example config file.

Cloud Code API vs standard API
Models containing -preview (with hyphen) or gemini-3 in the name, as well
as any gemini- model with major version >= 2, route through the Cloud Code
API (cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com) which supports SSE streaming
and project-scoped access. Other models use the standard Generative Language
API (generativelanguage.googleapis.com).
GitHub Copilot
GitHub Copilot exposes chat endpoint at
https://api.githubcopilot.com. IronClaw uses that endpoint directly through the
built-in github_copilot provider.
LLM_BACKEND=github_copilot
GITHUB_COPILOT_TOKEN=gho_...
GITHUB_COPILOT_MODEL=gpt-4o
# Optional advanced headers if your setup needs them:
# GITHUB_COPILOT_EXTRA_HEADERS=Copilot-Integration-Id:vscode-chat
ironclaw onboard can acquire this token for you using GitHub device login. If you
already signed into Copilot through VS Code or a JetBrains IDE, you can also reuse
the oauth_token stored in ~/.config/github-copilot/apps.json. If you prefer,
LLM_BACKEND=github-copilot also works as an alias.
Popular models vary by subscription, but gpt-4o is a safe default. IronClaw keeps
model entry manual for this provider because GitHub Copilot model listing may require
extra integration headers on some clients. IronClaw automatically injects the standard
VS Code identity headers (User-Agent, Editor-Version, Editor-Plugin-Version,
Copilot-Integration-Id) and lets you override them with
GITHUB_COPILOT_EXTRA_HEADERS.
Ollama (local)
Install Ollama from ollama.com, pull a model, then:
LLM_BACKEND=ollama
OLLAMA_MODEL=llama3.2
# OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434 # default
Pull a model first: ollama pull llama3.2
MiniMax
MiniMax provides high-performance language models with 204,800 token context windows.
LLM_BACKEND=minimax
MINIMAX_API_KEY=...
Available models: MiniMax-M2.7 (default), MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed, MiniMax-M2.5, MiniMax-M2.5-highspeed
To use the China mainland endpoint, set:
MINIMAX_BASE_URL=https://api.minimaxi.com/v1
AWS Bedrock (requires --features bedrock)
Uses the native AWS Converse API via aws-sdk-bedrockruntime. Supports standard AWS
authentication methods: IAM credentials, SSO profiles, and instance roles.
Build prerequisite: The
aws-lc-syscrate (transitive dependency via AWS SDK) requires CMake to compile. Install it before building with--features bedrock:
- macOS:
brew install cmake- Ubuntu/Debian:
sudo apt install cmake- Fedora:
sudo dnf install cmake
With AWS credentials (IAM, SSO, instance roles)
LLM_BACKEND=bedrock
BEDROCK_MODEL=anthropic.claude-opus-4-6-v1
BEDROCK_REGION=us-east-1
BEDROCK_CROSS_REGION=us
# AWS_PROFILE=my-sso-profile # optional, for named profiles
The AWS SDK credential chain automatically resolves credentials from environment
variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY), shared credentials file
(~/.aws/credentials), SSO profiles, and EC2/ECS instance roles.
Cross-region inference
Set BEDROCK_CROSS_REGION to route requests across AWS regions for capacity:
| Prefix | Routing |
|---|---|
us |
US regions (us-east-1, us-east-2, us-west-2) |
eu |
European regions |
apac |
Asia-Pacific regions |
global |
All commercial AWS regions |
| (unset) | Single-region only |
