* feat(providers): add ZenMux Free session-cookie provider (#5105)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip, CHANGELOG re-injected)

* feat(dashboard): click-to-edit model alias in provider page (#5119)

* feat(mcp): web-session robustness — cookie dedup (PR6) + browser-pool observability (PR7) (#3368) (#5121)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip; cookie-dedup branch extracted to findExistingCookieConnection helper → complexity-neutral; CHANGELOG added)

* fix(usage): dedupe request-usage logging and debounce stats (#4940)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip; DB-handle hang was stale-base artifact — resetDbInstance already closes the handle, test green 5/5; file-size drift consolidated at release; CHANGELOG re-injected)

* fix(dashboard): key model visibility toggle on canonical providerId (#5091)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (retargeted main→release; .tsx visibility-key test green 2/2)

* chore(deps): bump actions/cache from 5.0.5 to 6.0.0 (#5112)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (retargeted main→release; workflow-only actions/cache bump — unit failures were stale main base-reds)

* fix(streaming): harden long OpenAI-compatible SSE streams (#5124)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip; streamHandler conflict with #5007 disconnect-guard resolved — both coexist, stream-handler 22/22 green)

* feat: Add Grok Build (xAI) provider with OAuth import-token flow (#5020)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip; Hard Rule #11 fix — Grok public client_id now via resolvePublicCred(grok_id), 3 literals removed; grok-oauth 7/7 + check:public-creds green)

* feat(providers): add Factory (factory.ai) as a subscription gateway provider (#5065)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip; added factory registry test for PR Test Policy + fixed check:env-doc-sync phantom FACTORY_API_KEY; factory loads in PROVIDERS, no Zod issue — that flag was a false positive)

* chore(test): reconcile golden snapshot + apikey count for new providers

#5020 (grok-cli), #5065 (factory), #5105 (zenmux-free) added providers but did
not regenerate tests/snapshots/provider/translate-path.json (now +3 entries) nor
bump the APIKEY_PROVIDERS count (159->160 for the factory gateway). Test-only
reconciliation; no production change.

* fix(resilience): harden quota and model lockout edge cases (#5093)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip). TRUST-BUT-VERIFY: dropped the PR's 0dd7df641 'fix unit gates' commit which reverted #5122 reasoning-replay (preserveReasoningContent) + re-introduced #4849 O(n^2) growth, and restored 5 tests it had realigned. Kept only the 3 declared resilience fixes (quota cutoff guard, gemini MIME, model-lockout maxCooldownMs); 23/23 green.

* Hydrate quota cache and scope auto combo candidates (#5015)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (rebased on tip). Kept core quota-cache hydration + auto-combo candidate scoping + combos UI; dropped out-of-scope toolCloaking refactor (conflicted with #4813 stripEnumDescriptions — took tip) and the unrelated sse-auth test split. Added quota-cache-hydrate-5015 regression test (Rule #18); combo-account-allowlist 8/8 + hydration 2/2 green.

* chore(quality): reconcile complexity + file-size baselines for v3.8.38 owner-PR batch

complexity 1972->1978 (+6) and file-size providers.ts 1093->1107 / usageHistory.ts
934->983 — drift from the /review-prs merge batch (#4845/#5105/#5020/#4940/#5093/
#5015 + #5121 cookie-dedup helper extraction). check:complexity/check:file-size do
not run on the PR->release fast-path, so the branch accrued unmeasured; all legit
feature/fix growth, not regression. See per-key justifications in each baseline.

* fix(security): exact-host Anthropic baseUrl check (CodeQL js/incomplete-url-substring-sanitization #674) (#5130)

The anthropic-compatible Bearer-fallback gate decided whether a configured baseUrl
targeted the official api.anthropic.com host via a substring `.includes("api.anthropic.com")`.
A look-alike upstream such as `https://api.anthropic.com.evil.test` or
`https://evil.test/?x=api.anthropic.com` matched the substring and was wrongly treated as
official, suppressing the Bearer fallback meant for third-party gateways
(CodeQL #674, js/incomplete-url-substring-sanitization, high).

Replace the substring test with an exported `isOfficialAnthropicBaseUrl()` helper that
parses the URL and compares the hostname for exact equality. Empty baseUrl stays official;
scheme-less hosts are parsed with an assumed https://; an unparseable baseUrl falls back to
third-party (Bearer emitted) as the safer default. Behavior for legitimate official/third-party
baseUrls is unchanged.

Adds tests/unit/anthropic-official-baseurl-host.test.ts covering official, look-alike,
scheme-less, and unparseable inputs plus a static guard that the substring pattern is gone.

* fix(proxy): repair one-click Deno & Cloudflare relay deployments (#5128) (#5132)

* fix(services): embed WS proxy honours LIVE_WS_HOST; reject empty messages early (#5110) (#5133)

* fix(api): resolve /v1/models/{id} case-insensitively (#5082) (#5135)

* fix(providers): add MiniMax M3 & Nemotron 3 Ultra to Cline catalog (#3321) (#5136)

* fix(proxy): make SOCKS5 handshake timeout tunable via SOCKS_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT_MS (#5109) (#5137)

* feat(sidebar): add support for colored menu icons (#3812)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38 (recreated on tip — fork had unrelated history; added getSidebarIconAccent regression test, Rule #18). Clean 2-file UI feature.

* fix(providers): complete grok-cli OAuth wiring + zenmux-free web-session metadata

Base-red repair for #5020 (grok-cli) and #5105 (zenmux-free), surfaced by the
full CI on the release PR (#5078) — the PR->release fast-path does not run the
oauth-providers-config / web-session-credentials / provider-consistency gates.

- grok-cli: register in OAUTH_PROVIDERS (providers.ts canonical list, fixes
  check:provider-consistency), add OAUTH_PROVIDER_IDS.GROK_CLI + GROK_CLI_CONFIG
  in oauth constants (provider config now sourced there, not a local literal),
  align oauth-providers-config.test.ts (EXPECTED_PROVIDER_KEYS + config map).
- zenmux-free: declare its web-session credential requirement (full Cookie header)
  in WEB_SESSION_CREDENTIAL_REQUIREMENTS.

Local: oauth-providers-config 27/27, web-session-credentials 4/4, grok-cli-oauth
7/7, check:provider-consistency OK, +115 OAUTH_PROVIDERS tests green.

* Fix resilience settings page response mapping (#5139)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38. Thanks @rdself for the fix and the regression test.

* fix(kiro): retire claude-sonnet-4.5 from catalog + pin 400 model-unavailable test (#5140)

Extracted the real change from #5140 (the bot PR regenerated the entire
freeModelCatalog.data.ts + touched package-lock.json; only the targeted
edits are kept here):
- remove claude-sonnet-4.5 from the Kiro registry entry
- remove the matching kiro free-model catalog row
- pin Kiro's verbatim 400 "Invalid model..." to isModelUnavailableError

Closes #4484

* fix(sidebar): drop orphan `settings` accent color (typecheck:core red) (#5142)

SIDEBAR_ICON_ACCENTS is typed Partial<Record<HideableSidebarItemId, string>>,
but `settings` is not a hideable item id (only `settings-general`,
`settings-appearance`, … and `context-settings` exist; there is no item with
`id: "settings"`), so the accent was unreachable. It broke `typecheck:core`
on the release tip ("'settings' does not exist in type …", introduced by
#3812 colored menu icons). Removing the orphan key restores a clean
typecheck:core (rc=0).

* feat: salvage batch 2 — diagnostics null-guard (#5096) + observed quota reset windows (#5025) (#5141)

* fix(diagnostics): null-guard content blocks in detectMalformedNonStream

A null (or non-object) entry in a Claude-native `content` array made the
non-stream classifier throw `TypeError: Cannot read properties of null
(reading 'type')`, crashing the malformed-response detection path. Guard
before type-asserting each block: a null/non-object block is simply skipped.

Two regression tests added (null block among valid blocks → null; only-null
blocks → empty_choices).

Salvaged from closed PR #5096 (base-stale; only the defensive guard — the
Claude-shape recognition it also carried already landed via #5108).

* feat(quota): persist observed provider quota reset windows

Adds `provider_quota_reset_events` (migration 108) + `db/quotaResetEvents.ts`
to record real upstream weekly-quota window transitions whenever a quota
refresh shows the reset rolling to a new cycle (different day, later resetAt).
`apiKeyUsageLimits` now prefers the observed window start over the inferred
`resetAt − 7d`, falling back to snapshot inference when no event is recorded
yet. `quotaCache.setQuotaCache` records the transition opportunistically.

`recordProviderQuotaResetEventIfChanged` only fires for the primary weekly
window (not daily/sonnet), is idempotent (INSERT OR IGNORE on the unique
window key), and no-ops when the reset didn't actually roll. 4 unit tests
(tests/unit/lib/quota-reset-events.test.ts).

Salvaged from closed PR #5025 (which bundled this with two unrelated
features + a colliding migration 104). Renumbered to 108; module re-exported
from localDb (Rule #2).

* docs(i18n): sync 3.8.38 CHANGELOG section to 41 mirrors (unblock docs-accuracy) (#5144)

The root CHANGELOG [3.8.38] section grew with this cycle's merged PRs, but the
docs/i18n/<lang>/CHANGELOG.md mirrors were not re-synced — drifting >25% in body
size and failing check:docs-sync (the "Docs accuracy" fast-gate step) for every
open PR against the release.

Ran scripts/release/sync-changelog-i18n.mjs 3.8.38 3.8.37 to copy the root
[3.8.38] section into all 41 mirrors. check:docs-all now passes (exit 0).

Sections are copied verbatim; the per-language translation pass runs at release
time via i18n:run — this only restores the size-sync the gate enforces.

* feat(compression): pure per-step fidelity checker (4 invariants, fail-open)

* feat(compression): fidelityGate config + rejected breakdown fields

* feat(compression): wire per-step fidelity gate into stacked pipeline (opt-in)

* feat(compression): preview route accepts fidelityGate flag (playground)

* feat(compression): playground fidelity-gate toggle + lane rejection display

* docs(compression): note fidelityGate advanced thresholds are intentionally API-omitted

* refactor(compression): extract fidelity-gate step helpers to shrink strategySelector (file-size gate)

bodyToText and gateAdvance moved to fidelityGateStep.ts; StackAccumulator exported.
strategySelector: 889->854 (-35). Residual +6 vs pre-Milestone-B frozen 848 is the
irreducible StackOptions.fidelityGate field + two stacked-loop dispatch reads + import.
Baseline updated to 854 with justification. No cycle introduced (import type only).
940 compression tests pass; typecheck clean.

* test(usage): wire usageHistoryDedup under unit runner brace-list (#5145)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38.

* feat: salvage batch from closed stale PRs (#5038, #5057, #5076) (#5138)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38.

* test(combo): deterministic routing-decision matrix for all 17 strategies (#5146)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38.

* feat(compression): fuzzy near-duplicate dedup (session-dedup 2nd pass + playground toggle) (#5143)

Integrated into release/v3.8.38.

* chore(quality): rebaseline file-size for sidebarVisibility.ts + chat.ts drift (#5147)

Mid-cycle drift on release/v3.8.38 from already-merged PRs that the fast-path
(PR->release skips check:file-size) let accumulate without a bump:

- src/shared/constants/sidebarVisibility.ts 1100->1198 (#3812 colored menu
  icons, per-item accent map; #5142 dropped one orphan, net still above frozen)
- src/sse/handlers/chat.ts 1560->1575 (#5064 self-inflicted-timeout cooldown
  skip + #5124 long OpenAI-compatible SSE hardening + #5110 embed-WS
  LIVE_WS_HOST honour / early empty-message reject)

Each covered by its own PR tests; structural shrink of chat.ts tracked in #3501.
Unblocks the Fast Quality Gates for PRs targeting release/v3.8.38.

* chore(release): finalize v3.8.38 CHANGELOG + cycle reconciliation

- Reconcile [3.8.38]: +18 bullets (compression fidelity-gate/fuzzy-dedup #5143,
  quota keepalive #5102, web-session robustness #5121, MiniMax/Nemotron #5136,
  model-visibility #5091, failover logs #5016, disconnect races #5007, sidebar
  orphan #5142, SRE playbooks salvage #5138, new Security #5130 + Maintenance roll-up)
- Credit salvaged-PR authors (@JxnLexn / @KooshaPari / @herjarsa / @Witroch4)
- Remove phantom bullet for CLOSED-not-merged #5092 (setup aggregator never landed)
- Fix isHidden bullet PR citation #4389 -> #5086 (@herjarsa)
- Back-fill forgotten v3.8.36 bullet: #5026 crypto.randomUUID ID-gen (@hamsa0x7)
- Sync 41 i18n CHANGELOG mirrors; README What's New -> v3.8.38
- Rebaseline cycle drift: eslint 3987->4002, cognitive 833->841, dead-exports
  345->346, cyclomatic 1978->1980 (file-size handled by #5147)

## 1. Required Secrets
These **must** be set before the first run. Without them, the application will either refuse to start or operate with insecure defaults.
| Variable | Required | Default | Source File | Description |
| ---------------------------- | -------------------- | ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `JWT_SECRET` | **Yes** | _(none)_ | `src/lib/auth` | Signs/verifies all dashboard session cookies (JWT). Generate with `openssl rand -base64 48`. |
| `API_KEY_SECRET` | **Yes** | _(none)_ | `src/lib/db/apiKeys.ts` | AES encryption key for API key values at rest in SQLite. Generate with `openssl rand -hex 32`. |
| `INITIAL_PASSWORD` | **Yes** | `CHANGEME` | Bootstrap script | Sets the initial admin dashboard password (matches `.env.example` default — kept obviously insecure to force a change). **Change before first use.** After login, change via Dashboard → Settings → Security. |
| `OMNIROUTE_WS_BRIDGE_SECRET` | **Yes** (production) | _(unset)_ | `src/app/api/internal/codex-responses-ws/route.ts` | Shared secret for the internal Codex Responses WebSocket bridge. Authenticates bridge requests between the Electron/browser WS relay and OmniRoute. ⚠️ **REQUIRED in production — when unset, all WS bridge requests are rejected.** Generate with `openssl rand -base64 32`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PEER_STAMP_TOKEN` | No (auto) | _(auto per boot)_ | `src/server/authz/policies/management.ts` | Per-process secret proving the trusted peer-IP stamp came from OmniRoute's own HTTP server (`scripts/dev/peer-stamp.mjs`). The authz middleware trusts request locality (loopback/LAN gating of LOCAL_ONLY routes) only when the stamp carries this token. Auto-generated each boot — leave unset; only pin it for multi-process setups that must share the stamp. |
### Generation Commands
```bash
# Generate all four secrets at once:
echo "JWT_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 48)"
echo "API_KEY_SECRET=$(openssl rand -hex 32)"
echo "INITIAL_PASSWORD=$(openssl rand -base64 16)"
echo "OMNIROUTE_WS_BRIDGE_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32)"
```
> [!CAUTION]
> Never commit `.env` files with real secrets to version control. The `.gitignore` already excludes `.env`, but verify before pushing.
---
## 2. Storage & Database
OmniRoute uses **SQLite** (via `better-sqlite3`) for all persistence. These variables control data location, encryption, and lifecycle.
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| -------------------------------------- | -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `DATA_DIR` | `~/.omniroute/` | `src/lib/db/core.ts` | Root directory for SQLite DB, backups, and data files. Override for Docker volumes or custom paths. |
| `STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_KEY` | _(empty = disabled)_ | `src/lib/db/encryption.ts` | AES key for full SQLite database encryption at rest. Generate with `openssl rand -hex 32`. |
| `STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_KEY_VERSION` | `v1` | `scripts/build/bootstrap-env.mjs`, `electron/main.js` | Version label for the encryption key. Increment when performing key rotation to support decryption of old backups. |
| `DISABLE_SQLITE_AUTO_BACKUP` | `false` | `src/lib/db/backup.ts` | When `true`, skips the automatic database backup that runs before migrations on every startup. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CRYPT_KEY` | _(unset)_ | `src/lib/db/encryption.ts` | **Legacy alias** for `STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_KEY`. Accepted as a fallback when the primary variable is absent. |
| `OMNIROUTE_API_KEY_BASE64` | _(unset)_ | `src/lib/db/encryption.ts` | **Legacy alias** (Base64-encoded form) accepted as a fallback. Decoded automatically before use. |
| `OMNIROUTE_DB_HEALTHCHECK_INTERVAL_MS` | _(unset)_ | `src/lib/db/core.ts` | Override the periodic SQLite healthcheck interval (ms). When unset, defaults are derived from `NODE_ENV`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_SKIP_DB_HEALTHCHECK` | `0` | `src/lib/db/core.ts`, `src/lib/db/healthCheck.ts` | Set to `1` to skip the DB healthcheck entirely on startup. Useful for short-lived tasks and integration tests. |
| `OMNIROUTE_FORCE_DB_HEALTHCHECK` | `0` | `src/lib/db/core.ts` | Set to `1` to force the DB healthcheck loop on, even when it would normally be skipped (e.g., short-lived tasks). |
| `OMNIROUTE_SKIP_POSTINSTALL` | `0` | `scripts/postinstall.mjs` | Set to `1` to skip the native-runtime warm-up during `npm install`. Useful in CI/headless installs where sqlite is already built. |
| `OMNIROUTE_MIGRATIONS_DIR` | _(auto-detect)_ | `src/lib/db/migrationRunner.ts` | Override the directory that the migration runner scans. Useful when shipping bundled migrations in custom builds. |
| `OMNIROUTE_MAX_PENDING_MIGRATIONS` | `50` | `src/lib/db/migrationRunner.ts` | Mass-pending-migrations safety threshold (#3416). Startup aborts if more than this many migrations are pending on an existing DB (guards against a wiped tracking table). Raise it to restore an older backup; set to `0` to disable the check. |
| `OMNIROUTE_SPEND_FLUSH_INTERVAL_MS` | _(default in code)_ | `src/lib/spend/batchWriter.ts` | Flush interval (ms) for the batched spend/cost writer. Lower values reduce write coalescing; higher values reduce DB contention. |
| `OMNIROUTE_SPEND_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE` | _(default in code)_ | `src/lib/spend/batchWriter.ts` | Max buffered spend entries before a forced flush. Raise on high-QPS deployments; lower when bounded memory matters more. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PROXY_FETCH_DEBUG` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/utils/proxyFetch.ts` | Set to `"true"` to emit `[ProxyFetch]` debug logs on the Vercel relay path. Off by default to avoid leaking routing hints. |
| `BATCH_RETRY_DURATION_MS` | `86400000` (24h) | `open-sse/services/batchProcessor.ts` | Maximum retry window for individual batch items (ms). Items exceeding this duration are marked failed. |
| `BATCH_BACKOFF_BASE_MS` | `5000` | `open-sse/services/batchProcessor.ts` | Base delay (ms) for exponential backoff on batch item retries. |
| `BATCH_BACKOFF_MAX_MS` | `3600000` (1h) | `open-sse/services/batchProcessor.ts` | Cap (ms) for exponential backoff between batch item retries. |
| `BATCH_MAX_CONCURRENT` | `1` | `open-sse/services/batchProcessor.ts` | Maximum number of batches processed concurrently. Raise to increase throughput; keep low to avoid rate-limit storms. |
### Scenarios
| Scenario | Configuration |
| --------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Local development** | Leave all defaults. DB lives at `~/.omniroute/omniroute.db`. |
| **Docker** | `DATA_DIR=/data` + mount a volume at `/data`. |
| **Encrypted at rest** | Set `STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_KEY` + keep backups of the key! Losing it = losing data. |
| **CI/Testing** | `DATA_DIR=/tmp/omniroute-test` — ephemeral, no encryption needed. |

## 3. Network & Ports
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `PORT` | `20128` | `src/lib/runtime/ports.ts` | Primary port for both Dashboard UI and API endpoints (single-port mode). |

| `HOST` | `0.0.0.0` | `scripts/dev/run-next.mjs` | Bind address for the Next.js dev/start server. Overrides the default `0.0.0.0` when set. |
| `HOSTNAME` | `127.0.0.1` | `scripts/dev/run-next-playwright.mjs` | Bind address used by the Playwright runner when launching Next.js. Defaults to `127.0.0.1` for hermetic tests. |

## 4. Security & Authentication
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| --------------------------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `MACHINE_ID_SALT` | `endpoint-proxy-salt` | `src/lib/auth` | Salt combined with hardware identifiers for machine fingerprinting. Change per-deployment for isolation. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CLI_SALT` | `omniroute-cli-auth-v1` | `src/lib/machineToken.ts` | HMAC salt for deriving the local CLI auth token. Changing this value rotates all CLI tokens on the machine. See `docs/security/CLI_TOKEN.md`. |
| `AUTH_COOKIE_SECURE` | `false` | `src/lib/auth` | Sets the `Secure` flag on session cookies. **Must be `true`** when running behind HTTPS. |
| `REQUIRE_API_KEY` | `false` | API middleware | When `true`, all `/v1/*` proxy requests must include a valid API key. |
| `ALLOW_API_KEY_REVEAL` | `false` | `src/shared/constants/featureFlagDefinitions.ts` | Allows revealing full API key values in the Dashboard UI. Configurable from Dashboard Feature Flags; security risk on shared instances. |
| `NO_LOG_API_KEY_IDS` | _(empty)_ | `src/lib/compliance/index.ts` | Comma-separated API key IDs that bypass request logging (GDPR compliance). |
| `DEFAULT_RATE_LIMIT_PER_DAY` | `1000` | `src/shared/utils/apiKeyPolicy.ts` | Fallback per-day request budget applied to API keys whose `rate_limits` column is null. Default (unset/empty/malformed) keeps the legacy 1000/day, 5000/week, 20000/month windows. Set explicitly to `0` to opt out (unlimited). Any positive integer N enables N/day, 5N/week, 20N/month. Zod-validated; invalid values log a warning and use the legacy default. |
| `MAX_BODY_SIZE_BYTES` | `10485760` (10 MB) | `src/shared/middleware/bodySizeGuard.ts` | Maximum allowed request body size. Rejects payloads exceeding this limit. |
| `CORS_ORIGIN` | `*` | Next.js middleware | CORS `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` value. Restrict for production. |
| `OUTBOUND_SSRF_GUARD_ENABLED` | `true` | `src/shared/network/outboundUrlGuard.ts` | Block provider calls targeting private/loopback/link-local IP ranges. Disable only in isolated test envs. |
| `OMNIROUTE_ALLOW_PRIVATE_PROVIDER_URLS` | `false` | `src/shared/network/outboundUrlGuard.ts` | Allow provider URLs pointing to private/local networks (localhost, 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, etc.). **REQUIRED for self-hosted providers** (LM Studio, Ollama, vLLM, Llamafile, Triton, SearXNG). When `false`, the dashboard rejects validation of local URLs. |
| `OMNIROUTE_ALLOW_LOCAL_PROVIDER_URLS` | `true` | `src/shared/network/outboundUrlGuard.ts` | Allow adding/validating providers on local/private addresses (127.0.0.1, localhost, LAN, private ranges) — scoped to the provider validation path. **Default `true`** (local-first); set `false` to enforce strict public-only blocking. Cloud-metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal) stay blocked regardless. (#5066) |
### Hardening Checklist
```bash
# Production security minimum:
AUTH_COOKIE_SECURE=true # Requires HTTPS
REQUIRE_API_KEY=true # Authenticate all proxy calls
ALLOW_API_KEY_REVEAL=false # Never expose keys in UI
CORS_ORIGIN=https://your.domain.com
MAX_BODY_SIZE_BYTES=5242880 # 5 MB limit
```

## 5. Input Sanitization & PII Protection
OmniRoute provides a two-layer defense: request-side injection scanning and response-side PII stripping.
### Request-Side: Prompt Injection Guard
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ------------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `INPUT_SANITIZER_ENABLED` | `false` | `src/middleware/promptInjectionGuard.ts` | Enable scanning of incoming messages for prompt injection patterns. |
| `INPUT_SANITIZER_MODE` | `warn` | `src/middleware/promptInjectionGuard.ts` | `warn` = log only, `block` = reject request with 400, `redact` = strip suspicious patterns. |
| `INJECTION_GUARD_MODE` | _(unset)_ | `src/middleware/promptInjectionGuard.ts` | Legacy alias for `INPUT_SANITIZER_MODE` — same behavior. |
| `PII_REDACTION_ENABLED` | `false` | `src/middleware/promptInjectionGuard.ts` | Detect PII (emails, phones, SSNs) in incoming requests. |
### Response-Side: PII Sanitizer
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| -------------------------------- | -------- | ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `PII_RESPONSE_SANITIZATION` | `false` | `src/lib/piiSanitizer.ts` | Scan LLM responses for leaked PII before returning to client. |
| `PII_RESPONSE_SANITIZATION_MODE` | `redact` | `src/lib/piiSanitizer.ts` | `redact` = mask PII, `warn` = log only, `block` = drop entire response. |
### VS Code Tokenized-Route Context Sanitizer
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ----------------------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `OMNIROUTE_VSCODE_SANITIZE_CONTEXT` | `1` | `src/app/api/v1/vscode/contextSanitizer.ts` | Strips implicit active-editor context (`editorContext`, `activeEditor`, `currentFile`, `selection`, `openTabs`…) from `/v1/vscode/[token]/*` requests and redacts content of explicitly-attached sensitive files. Secure-by-default; set to `0` to disable. |
### Scenarios
| Scenario | Configuration |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Enterprise compliance** | `INPUT_SANITIZER_ENABLED=true`, `INPUT_SANITIZER_MODE=block`, `PII_REDACTION_ENABLED=true`, `PII_RESPONSE_SANITIZATION=true` |
| **Monitoring only** | `INPUT_SANITIZER_ENABLED=true`, `INPUT_SANITIZER_MODE=warn` — logs but never blocks |
| **Personal use** | Leave all disabled — zero overhead |
---
## 6. Tool & Routing Policies
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `TOOL_POLICY_MODE` | `disabled` | `src/lib/toolPolicy.ts` | Controls LLM tool/function-calling access. `allowlist` = only listed tools, `denylist` = all except listed, `disabled` = no restrictions. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PAYLOAD_RULES_PATH` | `./config/payloadRules.json` | `open-sse/services/payloadRules.ts` | Path to payload manipulation rules JSON file (per-model/protocol upstream tweaks). |
| `OMNIROUTE_PAYLOAD_RULES_RELOAD_MS` | `5000` | `open-sse/services/payloadRules.ts` | Reload interval (ms) for hot-reloading the payload rules file. Minimum `1000`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PREFER_CLAUDE_CODE_FOR_UNPREFIXED_CLAUDE_MODELS` | `false` | `open-sse/services/model.ts` | Opt-in: route bare `claude-*` model IDs from Claude Code clients through the Claude Code OAuth account instead of requiring a provider prefix. Explicit provider prefixes still win. Also configurable via a dashboard toggle on the Claude provider page. |
---
## 7. URLs & Cloud Sync
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| --------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `BASE_URL` | `http://localhost:20128` | `src/lib/cloudSync.ts` | Server-side URL for internal sync jobs to call `/api/sync/cloud`. |

| `OMNIROUTE_BUILD_PROFILE` | `full` | Webpack build config | Build-time profile (set to `minimal` to physically exclude privileged modules from bundle). |
| `OMNIROUTE_CLOUD_SYNC_SECRET` | _(empty)_ | `src/lib/cloudSync.ts` | Shared secret used to verify the HMAC-SHA256 signature of Cloud Sync responses. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CLOUD_SYNC_SECRETS` | `false` | `src/lib/cloudSync.ts` | Set to `true` to allow the Cloud Sync endpoint to overwrite local credentials. Default is `false`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_ZED_IMPORT_LEGACY_ONE_STEP` | `false` | `src/app/api/providers/zed/import/route.ts` | Set to `true` to fall back to the v3.8.5 one-step "import everything" behavior without user confirmation. |
| `NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL` | `http://localhost:20128` | OAuth, Dashboard, sync | Public-facing URL for OAuth redirect_uri, Dashboard links. **Must match your public URL behind reverse proxy.** |
| `NEXT_PUBLIC_CLOUD_URL` | _(empty)_ | Client-side | Client-side mirror of `CLOUD_URL`. |
| `NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL` | _(unset)_ | `src/shared/services/cloudSyncScheduler.ts` | Legacy fallback for `NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PUBLIC_BASE_URL` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/executors/chatgpt-web.ts` | Browser-facing OmniRoute origin used for image URLs in API responses (e.g., `/v1/chatgpt-web/image/<id>`). Set this when OpenWebUI or another relay reaches OmniRoute by an internal URL but the user's browser must fetch images from a LAN, tunnel, or public origin. Do **not** include `/v1`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CGPT_WEB_IMAGE_TIMEOUT_MS` | `180000` (3 min) | `open-sse/executors/chatgpt-web.ts` | Max wait time for an async chatgpt-web image to land via the celsius WebSocket. Increase during upstream queue-deep windows. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CGPT_WEB_IMAGE_CACHE_MAX_MB` | `256` | `open-sse/services/chatgptImageCache.ts` | Total in-memory byte budget (MB) for the chatgpt-web image cache serving `/v1/chatgpt-web/image/<id>`. Lower on memory-constrained hosts; raise if image generation is heavy and clients race the 30-minute TTL. |
| `THEOLDLLM_NAV_TIMEOUT_MS` | `30000` (30s) | `open-sse/executors/theoldllm.ts` | Playwright navigation timeout (ms) for the browser-backed token capture used by the The Old LLM (theoldllm) free provider. Raise on slow networks if the relay page is slow to settle. |
| `KIE_CALLBACK_URL` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/utils/kieTask.ts` | Public callback URL for asynchronous kie.ai jobs. Highest-priority override before `OMNIROUTE_KIE_CALLBACK_URL` and `OMNIROUTE_PUBLIC_URL`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_KIE_CALLBACK_URL` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/utils/kieTask.ts` | Alternate spelling of `KIE_CALLBACK_URL`. Falls back when the primary variable is unset. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PUBLIC_URL` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/utils/kieTask.ts` | Public origin used to compose async callback URLs. Lowest-priority fallback for kie.ai callbacks; also used as a generic public URL for other relays. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CROF_USAGE_URL` | `https://crof.ai/usage_api/` | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | CrofAI quota lookup endpoint used by the Usage page. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
| `OMNIROUTE_GEMINI_CLI_USAGE_URL` | `https://cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com/v1internal:loadCodeAssist` | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Gemini CLI quota lookup endpoint. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OPENCODE_QUOTA_URL` | `https://opencode.ai/zen/go/v1/quota` | `open-sse/services/opencodeQuotaFetcher.ts` | OpenCode (zen/go) quota lookup endpoint used by the Usage page. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OPENCODE_GO_QUOTA_URL` | `https://api.z.ai/api/monitor/usage/quota/limit` | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | OpenCode Go quota lookup endpoint used by the Usage page. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OPENCODE_GO_DASHBOARD_URL` | `https://opencode.ai/workspace` | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | OpenCode Go dashboard base URL used for quota scraping when a workspace ID and auth cookie are configured. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
| `OPENCODE_GO_WORKSPACE_ID` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | OpenCode Go workspace ID used for dashboard quota scraping. Prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OPENCODE_GO_WORKSPACE_ID` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Alternate OpenCode Go workspace ID env var used before the shorter alias. Prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OPENCODE_GO_AUTH_COOKIE` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | OpenCode Go `auth` cookie used for dashboard quota scraping. Sensitive; prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OPENCODE_GO_AUTH_COOKIE` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Alternate OpenCode Go `auth` cookie env var used before the shorter alias. Sensitive; prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OLLAMA_CLOUD_USAGE_URL` | `https://ollama.com/settings` | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Ollama Cloud settings URL used for quota scraping. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
| `OLLAMA_USAGE_COOKIE` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Ollama Cloud `__Secure-session` cookie used for settings-page quota scraping. Sensitive; prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OLLAMA_CLOUD_USAGE_COOKIE` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Alternate Ollama Cloud `__Secure-session` cookie env var. Sensitive; prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OMNIROUTE_OLLAMA_USAGE_COOKIE` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | Alternate Ollama Cloud `__Secure-session` cookie env var used before the shorter aliases. Sensitive; prefer the per-connection Dashboard field when multiple accounts are configured. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CODEWHISPERER_BASE_URL` | `https://codewhisperer.us-east-1.amazonaws.com` | `open-sse/services/usage.ts` | CodeWhisperer (AWS Kiro) usage limits endpoint. Override for relays / test fixtures. |
> [!IMPORTANT]
> When deploying behind a reverse proxy (nginx, Caddy), `NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL` **must** be set to your public URL (e.g., `https://omniroute.example.com`). Without this, OAuth callbacks will fail because the redirect_uri won't match.
---
## 8. Outbound Proxy
Route upstream LLM provider calls through an HTTP or SOCKS5 proxy for egress control, geo-routing, or IP masking.
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ---------------------------------------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `ENABLE_SOCKS5_PROXY` | `true` | `open-sse/executors` | Enable SOCKS5 proxy agent for upstream calls. Opt-out with `false`. |
| `NEXT_PUBLIC_ENABLE_SOCKS5_PROXY` | `true` | Client-side | Client-side awareness of SOCKS5 availability. |
| `HTTP_PROXY` | _(unset)_ | Node.js standard | HTTP proxy for upstream calls. |
| `HTTPS_PROXY` | _(unset)_ | Node.js standard | HTTPS proxy for upstream calls. |
| `ALL_PROXY` | _(unset)_ | Node.js standard | Universal proxy (supports `socks5://`). |
| `NO_PROXY` | _(unset)_ | Node.js standard | Comma-separated hostnames/IPs to bypass the proxy. |
| `OMNIROUTE_PROXY_DISPATCHER_CONNECTIONS` | `32` | `open-sse/utils/proxyDispatcher.ts` | Max concurrent sockets per cached HTTP/SOCKS proxy dispatcher. Long-lived SSE streams such as Codex `/v1/responses` need more than one connection when several requests share the same account-level proxy. Values above `256` are capped. |
| `SOCKS_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT_MS` | `10000` | `open-sse/utils/socksConnectorWithFamily.ts` | SOCKS5 handshake (connect) timeout in ms. Raise it when a single residential gateway host is hit by high concurrency (e.g. 100 simultaneous requests) — the real handshake can exceed 10s under a saturated pool even though the proxy is reachable, which otherwise surfaces as a false `[Proxy Fast-Fail] Proxy unreachable`. Capped at `120000`. |
| `PROXY_FAIL_OPEN` | `false` | `src/sse/handlers/chatHelpers.ts` | When `false` (default), a request whose assigned proxy fails to resolve is **refused (fail-closed)** rather than falling back to a direct connection — prevents real-IP leaks. Set `true` to restore the legacy DIRECT fallback. |
| `ENABLE_TLS_FINGERPRINT` | `false` | `open-sse/executors` | Spoof TLS fingerprint using wreq-js (mimics Chrome 124). Counters JA3/JA4 blocking. |
| `OMNIROUTE_TURNSTILE_IGNORE_TLS_ERRORS` | `false` | `open-sse/services/claudeTurnstileSolver.ts` | Allow the Claude Turnstile Playwright browser context to ignore HTTPS certificate errors. |
### Scenarios
| Scenario | Configuration |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **SOCKS5 through SSH tunnel** | `ALL_PROXY=socks5://127.0.0.1:7890`, `ENABLE_SOCKS5_PROXY=true` |
| **Corporate HTTP proxy** | `HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.corp.com:3128`, `HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy.corp.com:3128`, `NO_PROXY=localhost,internal.corp.com` |
| **Anti-fingerprint** | `ENABLE_TLS_FINGERPRINT=true` — requires `wreq-js` (included) |
| **Egress-controlled / no direct access** | Leave `PROXY_FAIL_OPEN=false` (default). Requests fail hard when the proxy is unavailable instead of leaking via direct. |
| **Legacy / dev — allow direct fallback** | `PROXY_FAIL_OPEN=true`. Restores pre-hardening behaviour: direct connection used when proxy resolution fails. |
> **Note (NVIDIA validation bypass — #3226):** NVIDIA's API-key validation endpoint
> stalls when routed through the global proxy/TLS-patched fetch (undici dispatcher → 504).
> `src/lib/providers/validation.ts::directHttpsRequest()` intentionally bypasses the
> proxy patch for that one validation call using `safeOutboundFetch({ bypassProxyPatch: true })`.
> This is a documented, scoped exception — it does **not** affect chat/usage egress.
> The bypass is scope-pinned by `tests/unit/proxy-bypass-scope-guard-3226.test.ts`.

## 9. CLI Tool Integration
Controls how OmniRoute discovers and launches CLI sidecars (Claude Code, Codex, etc.).
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ------------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `CLI_MODE` | `auto` | `src/shared/services/cliRuntime.ts` | `auto` = search system PATH; `manual` = use explicit paths only. |

> [!WARNING]
> **Google OAuth** (Antigravity, Gemini CLI) credentials **only work on localhost**. For remote servers:
>
> 1. Go to [Google Cloud Console → Credentials](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials)
> 2. Create an OAuth 2.0 Client ID (type: "Web application")
> 3. Add your server URL as Authorized redirect URI
> 4. Replace the credential values in `.env`.

## 12. Provider User-Agent Overrides
Override the `User-Agent` header sent to each upstream provider. This is dynamically resolved at runtime by the executor base class:
```
process.env[`${PROVIDER_ID}_USER_AGENT`]
```
> **Source:** `open-sse/executors/base.ts` → `buildHeaders()`
| Variable | Default Value | When to Update |
| -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `CLAUDE_USER_AGENT` | `claude-cli/2.1.145 (external, cli)` | When Anthropic releases a new CLI version |
| `CLAUDE_DISABLE_TOOL_NAME_CLOAK` | `false` | `executors/base.ts` + `executors/cliproxyapi.ts` | Set to `1`/`true` to forward third-party harness tool names verbatim to Anthropic on both Anthropic-bound paths (native OAuth and CLIProxyAPI). By default the executor deterministically aliases non-Claude-Code tool names (Claude Code canonical mapping where one exists, otherwise PascalCase) and reverses them on the response via `_toolNameMap`, so harnesses with snake_case tools are not refused as fingerprinted third-party clients. Debugging only. |
| `CODEX_USER_AGENT` | `codex-cli/0.142.0 (Windows 10.0.26200; x64)` | When OpenAI updates the Codex CLI |
| `CODEX_CLIENT_VERSION` | `0.131.0` | Override Codex client version independently of full UA string |
| `GITHUB_USER_AGENT` | `GitHubCopilotChat/0.45.1` | When GitHub Copilot Chat updates |
| `ANTIGRAVITY_USER_AGENT` | `antigravity/2.0.1 darwin/arm64` | When Antigravity IDE updates |
| `KIRO_USER_AGENT` | `AWS-SDK-JS/3.0.0 kiro-ide/1.0.0` | When Kiro IDE updates |
| `KIRO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` | `kiro-cli` | Override the Kiro social device-code `clientId` (public id) |
| `KIRO_VERIFY_FULL_CRC` | `false` | Opt-in: full per-frame message CRC validation on the Kiro event stream (debug corrupted streams) |
| `QODER_USER_AGENT` | `Qoder-Cli` | When Qoder CLI updates |
| `QWEN_USER_AGENT` | `QwenCode/0.15.9 (linux; x64)` | When Qwen Code updates |
| `CURSOR_USER_AGENT` | `Cursor/3.3` | When Cursor updates |
| `GEMINI_CLI_USER_AGENT` | `google-api-nodejs-client/10.3.0` | When Google API client updates |
> [!TIP]
> You can add User-Agent overrides for **any** provider using the pattern `{PROVIDER_ID}_USER_AGENT`. The executor dynamically constructs the env var name.
---
## 13. CLI Fingerprint Compatibility
When enabled, OmniRoute reorders HTTP headers and JSON body fields to match the exact signature of official CLI tools. This reduces the risk of account flagging while preserving your proxy IP.
**Source:** `open-sse/config/cliFingerprints.ts`, `open-sse/executors/base.ts`
### Per-Provider
| Variable | Activation | Effect |
| ------------------------ | ---------- | --------------------------------------- |
| `CLI_COMPAT_CODEX` | `=1` | Mimics Codex CLI request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_CLAUDE` | `=1` | Mimics Claude Code request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_GITHUB` | `=1` | Mimics GitHub Copilot request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_ANTIGRAVITY` | `=1` | Mimics Antigravity request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_CURSOR` | `=1` | Mimics Cursor request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_KIMI_CODING` | `=1` | Mimics Kimi Coding request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_KILOCODE` | `=1` | Mimics Kilo Code request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_CLINE` | `=1` | Mimics Cline request signature |
| `CLI_COMPAT_QWEN` | `=1` | Mimics Qwen Code request signature |
### Global
| Variable | Activation | Effect |
| ---------------- | ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `CLI_COMPAT_ALL` | `=1` | Enable fingerprint compatibility for **all** providers at once. |
### Kimi Coding CLI identity overrides
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ----------------------- | -------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `KIMI_CLI_VERSION` | `1.36.0` | `src/lib/oauth/providers/kimi-coding.ts` | Override the Kimi CLI version sent during OAuth/API calls. |
| `KIMI_CODING_DEVICE_ID` | _(captured default)_ | `src/lib/oauth/providers/kimi-coding.ts` | Override the captured Kimi device ID used in client headers. |
> [!NOTE]
> This feature works alongside the User-Agent overrides (§12). The fingerprint system handles header ordering and body field ordering, while User-Agent overrides handle the specific UA string. Both can be enabled independently.
---
## 14. API Key Providers
API keys for providers that use direct authentication. **Preferred setup:** Dashboard → Providers → Add API Key.
Setting via environment variables is an alternative for Docker or headless deployments.
Recognized pattern: `{PROVIDER_ID}_API_KEY`
| Variable | Provider |
| ------------------ | ---------- |
| `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` | DeepSeek |
| `NVIDIA_API_KEY` | NVIDIA NIM |
> [!NOTE]
> Static `${PROVIDER}_API_KEY` entries for Groq, xAI, Mistral, Perplexity, Together AI, Fireworks, Cerebras, Cohere, Nebius, and Qianfan were removed in v3.8.0 because the runtime no longer reads them — those providers rely exclusively on Dashboard / `data/provider-credentials.json` / the encrypted DB. See the _Audit: Removed / Dead Variables_ section at the bottom of this document for the migration path.
> [!TIP]
> Keys set via the Dashboard are stored encrypted in SQLite and take precedence over environment variables.

## 15. Timeout Settings
All values are in **milliseconds**. Centralized resolution in `src/shared/utils/runtimeTimeouts.ts`.
### Timeout Hierarchy
```

```
| Variable | Default | Description |
| ---------------------------------------- | -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS` | _(unset)_ | Global shortcut — overrides both `FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS` and `STREAM_IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS` defaults. |

| `OMNIROUTE_CODEX_DROP_NONSTANDARD_EVENTS` | _(off)_ | Strip non-standard `codex.*` SSE events (e.g. `codex.rate_limits`) that break the OpenAI SDK's `responses.stream()` with a 502. Set `true`/`1`/`yes` to enable. |
| `FETCH_HEADERS_TIMEOUT_MS` | = `FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS` | Time to receive response headers. |
| `FETCH_BODY_TIMEOUT_MS` | = `FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS` | Time to receive the full response body. |
| `FETCH_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_MS` | `30000` | TCP connection establishment timeout. |
| `FETCH_KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT_MS` | `4000` | Keep-alive socket idle timeout. |

| `API_BRIDGE_SERVER_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS` | `300000` | Overall server request timeout for the bridge. |
| `API_BRIDGE_SERVER_HEADERS_TIMEOUT_MS` | `60000` | Time to send response headers via the bridge. |
| `API_BRIDGE_SERVER_KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT_MS` | `5000` | Bridge keep-alive idle timeout. |

| `OMNIROUTE_CHATGPT_TLS_TIMEOUT_MS` | `60000` | Wire-level timeout for the bogdanfinn/tls-client koffi binding (`chatgptTlsClient.ts`). |
| `OMNIROUTE_CHATGPT_TLS_GRACE_MS` | `10000` | JS-side grace added on top of the wire timeout when the native binding is wedged. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CLAUDE_TLS_TIMEOUT_MS` | `60000` | Wire-level timeout for the bogdanfinn/tls-client koffi binding (`claudeTlsClient.ts`). |
| `OMNIROUTE_CLAUDE_TLS_GRACE_MS` | `10000` | JS-side grace added on top of the wire timeout when the native binding is wedged. |

| `WEB_COOKIE_USE_BROWSER` | `0` | Opt a web-cookie chat request into the browser-backed path (`browserBackedChat.ts`); `1` to enable. |
Combo target attempts inherit the resolved upstream request timeout (`FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS`, or
`REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS` when it supplies the fetch default). Set `targetTimeoutMs` in a combo,
combo defaults, or provider override only to make combo fallback faster; values above the
current upstream timeout are capped to the upstream timeout.
### Circuit Breaker Thresholds
Provider-level circuit breaker tuning. Defaults reflect the scaled values used since v3.6 for 500+ connections.

## 21. Proxy Health
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ----------------------------------------------- | ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `PROXY_FAST_FAIL_TIMEOUT_MS` | `2000` | `src/lib/proxyHealth.ts` | Fast-fail health check timeout. |
| `PROXY_HEALTH_CACHE_TTL_MS` | `30000` | `src/lib/proxyHealth.ts` | Health check result cache TTL. |
| `OMNIROUTE_CONTROL_PLANE_PROXY_DIRECT_FALLBACK` | `false` | `src/shared/constants/featureFlagDefinitions.ts` | Allow OAuth and provider validation flows to bypass a pinned proxy and connect directly when proxy reachability pre-checks fail. Effective precedence is Feature Flags DB override > env var > default. |
| `RATE_LIMIT_MAX_WAIT_MS` | `120000` (2 min) | `open-sse/services/rateLimitManager.ts` | Max time to wait on a 429 before failing the request. |
| `RATE_LIMIT_AUTO_ENABLE` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/rateLimitManager.ts` | Force the auto-enable rate limit safety net on/off regardless of the persisted Dashboard setting. Accepts `true`/`1`/`on` to force on, `false`/`0`/`off` to force off. |
| `PROVIDER_COOLDOWN_ENABLED` | _(unset → off)_ | `open-sse/services/providerCooldownTracker.ts` | Opt-in global cross-request provider/connection cooldown tracking. OFF by default (overlaps Connection Cooldown / Provider Circuit Breaker). Accepts `true`/`1`/`on` to enable. |
| `PROVIDER_COOLDOWN_MIN_MS` | `5000` | `open-sse/services/providerCooldownTracker.ts` | Minimum cooldown (ms) before a failed provider/connection is retried. Scaled exponentially with consecutive failures. Only used when `PROVIDER_COOLDOWN_ENABLED`. |
| `PROVIDER_COOLDOWN_MAX_MS` | `300000` (5 min) | `open-sse/services/providerCooldownTracker.ts` | Maximum cooldown (ms) cap before a failed provider/connection is retried regardless. Only used when `PROVIDER_COOLDOWN_ENABLED`. |
| `STREAM_RECOVERY_ENABLED` | _(unset → off)_ | `src/lib/resilience/settings.ts` (seed) → `open-sse/services/streamRecovery.ts` (logic) | **What:** transparent recovery of truncated upstream streams (free-claude-code port). Holds the opening SSE window up to `STREAM_RECOVERY.HOLDBACK_MS` (750 ms) so a _pre-commit_ cutoff — one that happens before any byte reaches the client — is re-opened and retried invisibly. **When to enable:** flaky/upstreams that frequently 0-byte-truncate at stream start; leave OFF if you cannot afford up to 750 ms of added time-to-first-token on every stream. Accepts `true`/`1`/`on`. Seeds the persisted Resilience setting; the Dashboard setting wins once set. |
| `STREAM_RECOVERY_MIDSTREAM_ENABLED` | _(unset → off)_ | `src/lib/resilience/settings.ts` (seed) → `open-sse/services/streamRecovery.ts` (logic) | **What:** mid-stream continuation (Fase 4.4) — after a _post-commit_ truncation (bytes already reached the client), re-request with the partial text as an assistant prefill and stitch the missing suffix. Plain-text OpenAI-compatible streams only; never fires with a tool call in flight. **When to enable:** long generations that get cut mid-answer and you accept the recovered tail arriving as one burst rather than token-by-token. Independent of `STREAM_RECOVERY_ENABLED` (different risk profile). Accepts `true`/`1`/`on`. |
| `HEALTHCHECK_STAGGER_MS` | `3000` | `src/lib/tokenHealthCheck.ts` | Stagger interval (ms) between provider token healthchecks at startup. |
| `REQUEST_RETRY` | `2` | `src/sse/services/cooldownAwareRetry.ts` | Number of automatic retries on model-scoped cooldown responses before returning error to client. |
| `MAX_RETRY_INTERVAL_SEC` | `30` | `src/sse/services/cooldownAwareRetry.ts` | Max backoff interval (seconds) between cooldown retries. Capped by this value regardless of upstream `Retry-After`. |
| `HEADROOM_URL` | `http://localhost:8787` | `src/lib/headroom/detect.ts` | Headroom token-saver proxy URL. The dashboard lifecycle (`api/headroom/*`) spawns a local `headroom-ai` CLI on loopback by default; override only to point at an external Docker sidecar proxy. |
### Stream-recovery tuning constants (not env vars)
The two `STREAM_RECOVERY_*` flags above are the only operator-facing toggles. The
recovery behavior is otherwise tuned by hardcoded constants in
`open-sse/config/constants.ts` (`STREAM_RECOVERY`), shown here for reference —
changing them requires a code edit, not an env var:
- `STREAM_RECOVERY.HOLDBACK_MS = 750` — how long the opening SSE window is held
so an early truncation can be retried before any byte is committed to the client.
- `STREAM_RECOVERY.BUFFER_MAX_BYTES = 65536` — hard cap on the held window; commit
(flush + passthrough) as soon as this many bytes accumulate, regardless of the timer.
- `STREAM_RECOVERY.EARLY_RETRY_MAX = 4` — max transparent re-opens of the upstream
stream while the holdback is still uncommitted.
> **Per-provider sliding-window rate limit (no env var):** the FCC-ported
> per-provider sliding-window rate-limit _fallback_ exists in code
> (`open-sse/services/providerDefaultRateLimit.ts`, wired through
> `open-sse/services/rateLimitManager.ts`) but ships with an **empty default map**
> and has **no operator env var** today — it is enabled only via a test hook /
> code edit. It is intentionally not listed in the table above. The per-`(token, IP)`
> relay limiter that _does_ have a knob is `RELAY_IP_PER_MINUTE` (§3 Network & Ports).

| `OMNIROUTE_TLS_PROXY_URL` | _(unset)_ | `open-sse/services/chatgptTlsClient.ts` | Override the TLS sidecar URL for tests. Production should leave unset. |
| `CONTAINER_HOST` | `docker` | `scripts/check-permissions.sh` | Container runtime hint for the entrypoint permission check. Set to `podman` under rootless Podman so the fix instructions use `podman unshare chown` instead of `sudo chown`. |

| `OMNIROUTE_LOCAL_ENDPOINTS_ENABLED` | `0` | `src/lib/security/localEndpoints.ts` | Master switch for `/api/local/*` routes. When unset or `0`, all `/api/local/*` routes return 503 in production. Must be `1` in non-loopback deploys to enable the Redis launcher and similar 1-click local service starters. Belt-and-suspenders with `isLocalOnlyPath()` route-guard classification (`LOCAL_ONLY_API_PREFIXES` in `src/server/authz/routeGuard.ts`). |
| `OMNIROUTE_LOCAL_ENDPOINTS_TOKEN` | _(unset)_ | `src/lib/security/localEndpoints.ts` | Bearer token for `/api/local/*` callers that aren't on loopback (e.g. the desktop app). When set, requests from non-loopback IPs must carry `Authorization: Bearer <token>`. Required when `OMNIROUTE_LOCAL_ENDPOINTS_ENABLED=1` in non-loopback deployments. |
| `OMNIROUTE_REDIS_CONTAINER_NAME` | `omniroute-redis` | `bin/cli/commands/redis.mjs` | Container name for the 1-click Redis launcher (`omniroute redis up`). Used by both the CLI and the `RedisLauncherPanel` GUI. |
| `OMNIROUTE_REDIS_HOST_PORT` | `6379` | `bin/cli/commands/redis.mjs` | Host port for the 1-click Redis launcher. Bump if the host already binds 6379. The container's internal port stays 6379. |
| `OMNIROUTE_REDIS_IMAGE` | `redis:7-alpine` | `bin/cli/commands/redis.mjs` | Redis image used by the 1-click Redis launcher. Override to `redis:8-alpine` or a private registry mirror as needed. |
| `QDRANT_HOST` | `qdrant` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | Hostname of the Qdrant sidecar when `--profile memory` is active. Default points to the in-network qdrant service name; override for an external deployment. Only consumed when `qdrantEnabled` is `true` in code (`src/lib/memory/vectorStore.ts:108`). |
| `QDRANT_PORT` | `6333` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | REST port of the Qdrant sidecar. |
| `QDRANT_GRPC_PORT` | `6334` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | gRPC port of the Qdrant sidecar. Used by client libraries that prefer gRPC over REST for streaming ops. |
| `QDRANT_API_KEY` | _(unset)_ | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | Optional API key for Qdrant Cloud or an authenticated on-prem instance. Empty → no `api-key` header sent. |
| `QDRANT_COLLECTION` | `omniroute-memory` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | Collection name for OmniRoute's conversation memory embeddings. Created on first run with `QDRANT_VECTOR_SIZE` dimensions. |
| `QDRANT_EMBEDDING_MODEL` | `text-embedding-3-small` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | Default embedding model name recorded in the Qdrant collection metadata. Actual embeddings are generated by whatever provider the `embeddingModel` field in OmniRoute's settings points to. |
| `QDRANT_VECTOR_SIZE` | `1536` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | Embedding vector dimension. Must match the model you embed with (text-embedding-3-small → 1536; ada-002 → 1536; nomic-embed-text → 768). |
| `QDRANT_HNSW_EF_CONSTRUCT` | `128` | _(opt-in cluster profile)_ | HNSW index construction-time accuracy. Higher = slower build, faster search. |

## 26. Test & E2E Harness
Used by `scripts/dev/run-next-playwright.mjs`, `scripts/dev/smoke-electron-packaged.mjs`,
`scripts/dev/run-ecosystem-tests.mjs`, and `scripts/build/uninstall.mjs`. Leave every
value below unset in production deployments.

## Audit: Removed / Dead Variables
The following variables appeared in previous versions of `.env.example` but have **no runtime references** in the current codebase. They have been removed:
| Variable | Reason |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `STORAGE_DRIVER=sqlite` | Never read by any source file. SQLite is the only supported driver — no selection needed. |
| `INSTANCE_NAME=omniroute` | Present in old docs/env templates but unused at runtime. May return in a future multi-instance feature. |
| `SQLITE_MAX_SIZE_MB=2048` | Not referenced in source code. Database size is not artificially limited. |
| `SQLITE_CLEAN_LEGACY_FILES=true` | Not referenced in source code. Legacy cleanup was likely removed. |
| `CLI_ROO_BIN` | Not registered in `src/shared/services/cliRuntime.ts`. |
| `CLI_KIMI_CODING_BIN` | Not registered in `src/shared/services/cliRuntime.ts` (Kimi Coding uses OAuth, not a CLI binary). |
| `IFLOW_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` / `IFLOW_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` | Not referenced anywhere in source code. |
| `CEREBRAS_API_KEY` / `COHERE_API_KEY` / `FIREWORKS_API_KEY` / `GROQ_API_KEY` / `MISTRAL_API_KEY` / `NEBIUS_API_KEY` / `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY` / `TOGETHER_API_KEY` / `XAI_API_KEY` | Removed in v3.8.0. The runtime no longer reads these env vars — credentials come from Dashboard / `data/provider-credentials.json` / encrypted DB. |
| `CURSOR_PROTOBUF_DEBUG` | Removed in v3.8.0. Cursor executor uses `CURSOR_DEBUG` / `CURSOR_STREAM_DEBUG` (see §22). |
| `CLI_COMPAT_KIRO` | Removed in v3.8.0. Kiro is in `CLI_COMPAT_OMITTED_PROVIDER_IDS` — its toggle has no effect. |
| `QIANFAN_API_KEY` | Removed alongside other unused provider API key stubs in v3.8.0. |
### Default Value Corrections
| Variable | Old `.env.example` Value | Actual Code Default | Fixed |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------ | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| `APP_LOG_RETENTION_DAYS` | `90` | `7` | ✅ Removed misleading value; documented `7` as default |
| `CALL_LOG_RETENTION_DAYS` | `90` | `7` | ✅ Removed misleading value; documented `7` as default |
### OpenCode config regeneration (ad-hoc tooling)
Used by `scripts/ad-hoc/regen-opencode-config.ts` to regenerate an `opencode.json`
with accurate `limit.context` and `limit.output` values pulled from the running
OmniRoute instance. None of these are required for normal operation — the script
is developer tooling only.
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| ------------------ | ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `OMNIROUTE_URL` | `http://localhost:20128` | `scripts/ad-hoc/regen-opencode-config.ts` | Base URL of the OmniRoute instance to query for `/v1/models`. |
| `OMNIROUTE_KEY` | _(unset)_ | `scripts/ad-hoc/regen-opencode-config.ts` | API key to authenticate against the OmniRoute `/v1/models` endpoint. Falls back to `OPENCODE_API_KEY` when unset. |
| `OPENCODE_API_KEY` | _(unset)_ | `scripts/ad-hoc/regen-opencode-config.ts` | OpenCode-style API key (`sk-...`) written into the regenerated `opencode.json`. Falls back to `OMNIROUTE_KEY` when unset. |
### Compression offline-eval harness (ad-hoc tooling)
Used by `scripts/compression-eval/index.ts`, the offline compression evaluation CLI.
Not required for normal operation — developer tooling only.
| Variable | Default | Source File | Description |
| --------------------------- | ------------ | --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `OMNIROUTE_EVAL_CREDENTIALS` | `{}` (empty) | `scripts/compression-eval/index.ts` | Operator-supplied JSON credentials for the provider exercised by the offline compression-eval CLI (parsed with `JSON.parse`). Leave unset for a dry run. |
