Open Design

Agents

16CLIs auto-detected on your PATH.

On daemon boot, Open Design scans your PATH for these binaries. Whichever ones it finds become candidate design engines, swappable from the model picker. Streaming dispatch lives in apps/daemon/src/agents.ts. Adding a new CLI is one entry in AGENT_DEFS.

No CLI? No problem.

OpenAI-compatible BYOK proxy.

POST /api/proxy/stream takes { baseUrl, apiKey, model, messages }, normalises the path to …/v1/chat/completions, and forwards SSE chunks back to the browser. Anything that speaks the OpenAI chat schema works.

  • · Anthropic-via-OpenAI shim
  • · DeepSeek
  • · Groq
  • · MiMo (auto tool_choice: 'none' because its tool schema misbehaves on free-form generation)
  • · OpenRouter
  • · Your self-hosted vLLM
  • · Any other OpenAI-compatible endpoint

SSRF-guarded against loopback / link-local / RFC1918 destinations at the daemon edge.
