Summary

  • Register nan as a first-party provider, using Pi's OpenAI-compatible streaming and API-key resolution without an external provider package.
  • Discover the documented chat models available to the current key; reject unknown/non-chat IDs and invalidate catalogs across credential changes.
  • Add provider tests, extension-registration coverage and setup documentation.

README.md Setup, output-cap explanation and scope

Test plan

  • node --experimental-strip-types --test tests/nan-provider.test.ts: 12 passed.
  • pnpm run typecheck: baseline gate passed, 187 recorded diagnostics, no regressions.

The maintainer explicitly accepted the 16-line size exception after one cohesive slicing pass. Registration, discovery, tests and setup documentation form one work unit; no tests, comments or formatting were removed to fit the budget. Protected size:exception label assignment requires a separate instruction naming this PR after creation.

Includes: provider connection, catalog isolation, tests and documentation. Follow-up: explicit non-empty native API-key login, synchronous catalog publication and all seven documented models in the cold/offline fallback. Excludes: MCP search/media tools, usage-layer changes and personal launcher/configuration changes.

Each slice is independently tested and can be reverted with its own provider/test/documentation changes. Merge in order; after PR 1 lands, retarget/rebase PR 2 onto main so only the second work unit remains visible. No auto-merge is requested.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for the NaN model provider, including API-key authentication and model selection.
    • Models can be discovered from the provider’s catalog. When discovery is unavailable, the provider falls back to DeepSeek V4 Flash or the last successful catalog for the same API key.
    • Model output is capped at 1,024 tokens when NaN does not publish a maximum.
  • Documentation
    • Added setup and capability details for the NaN provider, including clarification that NaN MCP search and media bridges are not included.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds a first-party NaN provider that discovers supported chat models, maintains catalogs by API key, and registers through the extension API. It also adds tests for discovery and refresh behavior, and documents setup, model selection, and fallback behavior.

Changes

NaN provider

Layer / File(s) Summary
Provider catalog and capabilities
lib/nan-provider.ts, tests/nan-provider.test.ts
Defines provider settings and a maintained chat catalog with zero costs, model capabilities, and an offline deepseek-v4-flash model. The tests check baseline catalog settings.
Model discovery and catalog refresh
lib/nan-provider.ts, tests/nan-provider.test.ts
Fetches /models with an optional bearer credential and timeout. Successful results select known chat models; empty results clear the catalog. Unusable results preserve it. Credential changes, offline refreshes, cancellation, and overlapping requests have dedicated coverage.
Extension registration and usage
extensions/nan-provider.ts, tests/runtime-harness.mjs, README.md
Registers the provider as nan with the openai-completions API. Runtime tests check registration and extension discovery. The README describes authentication, model selection, discovery, output limits, and fallback behavior.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 282cc

The README misstates the default output limit for NaN models that publish no maximum. Correct the documentation, or the code if 1,024 is the intended value. The provider's runtime behavior is otherwise unaffected, so the merge risk is low.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 282cc

The integration restricts credential transmission and accepts only locally maintained model definitions. Concurrent refreshes can still restore older discovery results. End-to-end credential handling and remote authorization remain unverified, so the assessment is not minimal.

Retained concerns

  • Low · reliability · observed: Overlapping refreshes using the same credential share one revision. An older response completing last can replace a newer internal catalog, including repopulating a catalog after an authoritative empty response. This weakens catalog ownership and empty-result failure containment. External publication depends on unavailable caller-ordering guarantees; an authorization bypass is not established.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The directly supported exposure is the supplied API credential sent to the configured external discovery endpoint and the catalog owned by that provider instance. Wider tenant, datastore, infrastructure, or privileged-tool effects are not established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — An external response can change catalog membership among maintained IDs, including selecting an empty catalog. The inspected parser does not let that response select another credential destination or inject model metadata. Same-key stale results can regress discovery state, but remote entitlement changes and an authorization-bypass path remain unverified.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The credential crosses a network boundary through an optional bearer header to a fixed HTTPS URL. Redirects are rejected, caching is disabled for discovery, and request failures do not log credential-bearing request or response data. These controls do not establish server-side authorization.
  • observed — The provider may expose its offline baseline without successful authenticated discovery. That baseline is availability metadata, not evidence that the current identity is authorized to invoke the model.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Credential rotation, removal, cancellation, and different-key overlap have inspected test coverage. The overlap test changes credentials, so it does not counter the same-key ordering weakness. These tests do not exercise live authorization or the actual host publication path.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Establish and enforce refresh-operation ordering, either in the provider or through a verified host serialization contract, so an older same-key response cannot undo a newer authoritative catalog update.

### NaN model provider

The first-party `nan` provider is included; no third-party provider package is required. Set `NAN_API_KEY` before starting Pi, or authenticate with `/login nan`, then use `/model` to select a model. Pi streams chat completions through its OpenAI-compatible provider. Model discovery intersects NaN's authenticated `/v1/models` response with a maintained subset of known chat IDs from the [official model documentation](https://nan.builders/docs/models); unknown and non-chat IDs are omitted. A successful response with no known chat IDs stays empty. Documented context, reasoning, and text/image capabilities are preserved with conservative numeric bounds for abbreviated limits; audio input is not advertised by Pi. Where NaN does not publish an output maximum, the provider configures a conservative 1,024-token cap rather than claiming the model's true limit. When discovery is unavailable, the offline baseline is only `deepseek-v4-flash` (or the last successful catalog for the same key); the baseline may not be available to every key. NaN MCP search and media bridges are not included.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Correct the documented output cap to 8,192 tokens.

The README says the provider sets "a conservative 1,024-token cap." The code uses a different value. lib/nan-provider.ts Line 34 sets maxTokens: model.maxTokens ?? 8_192, and the tests assert 8_192. Users will get the wrong output limit from the README.

📝 Proposed fix
-Where NaN does not publish an output maximum, the provider configures a conservative 1,024-token cap rather than claiming the model's true limit.
+Where NaN does not publish an output maximum, the provider configures a conservative 8,192-token cap rather than claiming the model's true limit.
