+For direct requests, the only escape hatch is `configure_ssrf_whitelist(cidrs)`, which reads from `config.tools.ssrf_whitelist` at load time. An explicitly configured `providers.<name>.proxy` is a separate user-authorized trust boundary for provider requests and provider-returned image URL downloads. Those downloads still reject malformed URLs and locally identifiable private/internal targets on every redirect, but hostnames unavailable to local DNS are delegated to the trusted proxy. The user-selected proxy owns final DNS resolution and network egress policy.
 HTTP/SSE MCP transports are part of this boundary: validate configured MCP URLs before probing or constructing clients, and validate each outgoing HTTP request before redirects are followed. Local/private HTTP MCP endpoints are allowed only through the explicit SSRF whitelist. Stdio MCP servers are not part of the HTTP SSRF path.

 ## 🚀 Quick Start
-**1. Initialize**
+**Open nanobot in your browser**
 Skip this step if the one-command setup already started the wizard and Quick Start finished there.
 ```bash
-nanobot onboard
+nanobot webui
 ```
-Use `nanobot onboard --wizard` if you prefer an interactive setup.
+This is the recommended first run. The launcher creates the config and workspace when needed, safely enables the local WebSocket channel after confirmation, starts the gateway, and opens [`http://127.0.0.1:8765`](http://127.0.0.1:8765). A fresh install can open before a model is configured, so setup continues in the browser instead of beginning in a JSON file. The first-run WebUI binds to localhost by default and is not exposed to your LAN.
-**2. Configure** (`~/.nanobot/config.json`)
+**Your first three steps**
-Skip this step if you already configured provider and model settings in the wizard.
+1. Open **Settings → Models** and choose a provider, credential, and model.
 2. Start a new topic and send `Hello!` to verify the connection.
 3. Before project work, choose the intended workspace and access mode from the composer.
-`nanobot onboard` creates `~/.nanobot/config.json` and `~/.nanobot/workspace/`. Configure these **two parts** in the config file. Add or merge the following blocks into the existing file instead of replacing the whole file.
+Any normal reply means the provider, model, workspace, and browser gateway are working together.
-The example below uses a generic OpenAI-compatible `custom` provider so the compact path does not recommend one hosted service. Provider examples are recipes, not rankings or endorsements. For copyable provider-specific setup, see [Provider Cookbook](./docs/provider-cookbook.md).
+**Keep nanobot running after you close the terminal**
-*Set your API key*:
+```bash
-
+nanobot webui --background
 ```json
 {
  "providers": {
    "custom": {
      "apiKey": "your-api-key",
      "apiBase": "https://api.example.com/v1"
    }
  }
 }
 ```
-*Set a model preset and make it active*:
+This starts the same full gateway as `nanobot webui`, opens the browser, and leaves channels and automations running after the launcher exits. Complete first-time model setup with foreground `nanobot webui` before switching to background mode.
-```json
+```bash
-{
+nanobot gateway status
-  "modelPresets": {
+nanobot gateway logs
-    "primary": {
+nanobot gateway restart
-      "label": "Primary",
+nanobot gateway stop
      "provider": "custom",
      "model": "model-id-from-your-provider",
      "maxTokens": 8192,
      "contextWindowTokens": 200000,
      "temperature": 0.1
    }
  },
  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "modelPreset": "primary"
    }
  }
 }
 ```
-Direct `agents.defaults.provider` and `agents.defaults.model` still work for existing configs, but named presets are the recommended path because they also power `/model` switching and `fallbackModels`.
+**Prefer a gateway-first workflow?**
 For another provider, the same config shape still applies:
 | Replace | Where |
 |---|---|
 | Provider config key | `providers.<provider>` |
 | API key | `providers.<provider>.apiKey` |
 | Preset provider name | `modelPresets.primary.provider` |
 | Model ID | `modelPresets.primary.model` |
 | Endpoint URL, only when needed | `providers.<provider>.apiBase` |
 **3. Open the WebUI**
 The stable-compatible path is:
 ```bash
 nanobot gateway
 ```
-Leave the terminal open and visit `http://127.0.0.1:8765`. Current source versions also provide `nanobot webui`, which prepares the local WebSocket channel if needed, starts the gateway, and opens the browser automatically. The first-run WebUI binds to `127.0.0.1` by default, so it is not exposed to your LAN. Prefer not to keep a terminal open? Use `nanobot gateway --background`, then manage it with `nanobot gateway status`, `logs`, `restart`, and `stop`.
+This skips WebUI setup and browser opening, then runs the same complete gateway in the current terminal. It is the familiar entry point if you are coming from OpenClaw or already operate agents as long-lived services. The WebUI remains available when its channel is configured; open it manually when needed.
-For manual or terminal-only setup, test one CLI message:
+Use `nanobot gateway --background` for the same direct entry point without keeping the terminal attached. For automatic startup and supervision by the operating system, see [Deployment](./docs/deployment.md).
-```bash
+**Prefer to work entirely in the terminal?**
 nanobot status
 nanobot agent -m "Hello!"
 ```
 In `nanobot status`, it is normal for most providers to say `not set`. The active preset's provider should be configured, and `Config` plus `Workspace` should show check marks.
 If that works, start an interactive chat:
 ```bash
 nanobot agent
 ```
-Need help with `PATH`, API keys, provider/model matching, or JSON errors? See the fuller [Install and Quick Start](./docs/quick-start.md) and [Troubleshooting](./docs/troubleshooting.md).
+This opens an interactive terminal chat with the same configured model, workspace, and tools while keeping its own CLI session history. It does not open a browser or keep chat channels and automations running after you exit. Type `exit` or press `Ctrl+C` when you are done.
 For one request and an immediate exit, use:
 ```bash
 nanobot agent -m "Hello!"
 ```
 The one-shot form is useful for a quick provider check, shell scripts, and local automation. If you have not configured a model yet, run `nanobot webui` and open **Settings → Models** first.
 Need manual JSON, another device on your LAN, or help with provider/model matching? Continue with [Install and Quick Start](./docs/quick-start.md), [WebUI](./docs/webui.md), or [Troubleshooting](./docs/troubleshooting.md).
 If nanobot worked for you, a star on GitHub is the simplest way to support the project.

 ## ☁️ Deploy
 **Render — one click**
 Deploy nanobot's gateway and bundled WebUI from the repository's ready-to-use Blueprint:
 [![Deploy to Render](https://render.com/images/deploy-to-render-button.svg)](https://render.com/deploy?repo=https://github.com/HKUDS/nanobot)
 Render will ask for `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and a private `NANOBOT_WEB_TOKEN`, then provision persistent storage for sessions, memory, and WebUI history. Persistent disks require a paid Render service.
 **Self-host**
 Prefer your own infrastructure? Follow the [deployment guide](./docs/deployment.md) for Docker, Docker Compose, Linux services, and macOS LaunchAgent setup.

+- switch models and workspaces without leaving the conversation;
 - configure providers, chat channels, Apps, Skills, and Automations from one place.
-On current source versions, the command enables the local WebSocket channel after confirmation, starts the gateway, and opens [`http://127.0.0.1:8765`](http://127.0.0.1:8765). If your installed stable release does not include `nanobot webui`, run `nanobot gateway` and open that address manually. To open it from another device on your LAN, see [WebUI docs -> LAN access](./docs/webui.md#lan-access).
+See the [WebUI guide](./docs/webui.md) for LAN access, background operation, workspace controls, and the full feature tour. Working on the frontend itself? Use [`webui/README.md`](./webui/README.md).
 The WebUI is served by the WebSocket channel on port `8765` by default. The gateway's `18790` port is for the health endpoint, not the browser UI.

 🐈 nanobot stays lightweight by centering everything around a small agent loop: messages come in from chat apps, the LLM decides when tools are needed, and memory or skills are pulled in only as context instead of becoming a heavy orchestration layer. That keeps the core path readable and easy to extend, while still letting you add channels, tools, memory, and deployment options without turning the system into a monolith.

+Model presets let you name a complete model configuration and select one per session with `/model <preset>`. Configure all model, provider, generation, context-window, and image-input settings under top-level `modelPresets`; `agents.defaults` only selects preset names.

+On first load, nanobot migrates legacy model fields from `agents.defaults` and inline fallback objects in `config.json` into named presets, then atomically rewrites the file and logs a warning. If a concrete `modelPresets.default` and legacy direct fields both exist, the concrete preset wins and the warning explains that the conflicting legacy fields were removed. Legacy model fields supplied through nested `NANOBOT_AGENTS` environment settings are not supported and produce a warning with instructions to move them into `modelPresets`.

 Failover normally runs when the primary provider returns a fallbackable model/provider error before any answer text has been streamed. Stream-stall timeouts are the recovery exception: if the provider already emitted partial answer text and then stalls, nanobot closes the current stream segment and retries/fails over in a new segment. Typical fallback cases include timeouts, connection errors, 5xx server errors, 429 rate limits, overloads, authentication/permission failures such as invalid or expired credentials, and quota/balance exhaustion. It does not run for malformed requests, content filtering/refusals, or context-length/message-format errors.

 3. Create the Blueprint and wait for the service status to become **Live**. The first build can take several minutes.
 4. Open the generated `onrender.com` URL. The **Authentication required** page means the gateway is running: enter the same `NANOBOT_WEB_TOKEN` value to open the WebUI.
 The model API key is used by nanobot to call Anthropic. The Web token only protects access to this deployment; do not share it in issues, screenshots, or chat.
 ### Updates and Data
 The Blueprint disables automatic deploys so upstream repository changes do not unexpectedly restart your agent. To update, open the service in the Render Dashboard and choose **Manual Deploy → Deploy latest commit**.
 The persistent disk keeps `config.json`, sessions, memory, WebUI history, cron state, media, and logs across restarts and updates. The deployment initializes `config.json` only when it does not already exist, so settings changed later in the WebUI are not replaced on every boot.
 If deployment fails, open the service **Logs** page first. A missing model key fails provider requests after startup, while an incorrect Web token leaves you on the authentication page.

 ### Host integration context and persisted-turn callbacks
 Host applications can attach external context without copying or modifying the
 nanobot agent loop. A context provider receives a `RequestContext` before each
 model turn and may return one or more `RuntimeContextBlock` values. Use
 `attributes` for caller-owned routing data; nanobot keeps it separate from
 trusted channel metadata and does not persist it in session messages.
 `on_session_turn_persisted()` invokes its callback after a non-ephemeral turn
 has been saved. The callback receives `SessionTurnPersisted` and may read the
 completed transcript through `bot.sessions`. Callbacks run in registration
 order, and async callbacks are awaited before the run continues. They are
 observational: callback exceptions are logged and suppressed so the completed
 local turn remains successful. Durable external synchronization must catch
 failures and persist retry work before the callback returns. During SDK runs,
 callbacks execute while the session is still serialized and must not re-enter
 `bot.run()` for the same session.

stupidloud Xubin Ren Claude Opus 4.8	ef445cc246	fix(image): narrow Gemini Flash aspect-ratio and image-size scoping Address review feedback that the capability checks were broader than the documented per-model matrix: - Drop the extreme aspect ratios (1:4, 4:1, 1:8, 8:1) from the Flash allow-list. They are only documented for 3.1 Flash / Flash Lite, so the global set could send an unsupported ratio to 2.5 Flash Image or 3.1 Pro Image. Keep the ratios common to every Flash image model. - Identify imageSize support positively via "gemini-3" instead of excluding "2.5". The old predicate also matched gemini-2.0-flash-preview-image- generation, which (with the default 1K size) altered that model's request shape even though only Gemini 3+ image models accept a configurable size. Add tests for the gemini-2.0 image-size drop and the extreme-ratio drop. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-27 03:07:41 +08:00
stupidloud Xubin Ren Claude Opus 4.8	4986590bd7	fix(image): pass aspect ratio and size to Gemini Flash image models The Gemini Flash image path (`generateContent`) dropped both `aspect_ratio` and `image_size`: `generate()` never forwarded them and `_generate_gemini_flash` did not accept them, so every request fell back to 1:1 / input-matched output. The Imagen path was unaffected. Forward the hints and emit them under `generationConfig.responseFormat.image` per the current Gemini API. Aspect ratio is validated against the accepted set; `imageSize` is validated against {512,1K,2K,4K} and only sent to Gemini 3+ image models, since `gemini-2.5-flash-image` supports only `aspectRatio`.

Andrew KhmylovandXubin Ren	7aab7e8830	feat(agent): make idle compaction scan interval configurable Before this change, idle compaction is triggered every 1 second if the incoming message stream is idle. When triggered, it enumerates all session files, loads and parses them, and then checks their expiration. This becomes too CPU-intensive, especially on low-power devices like Raspberry Pi. It's unlikely that you actually need to compact every second over the long time. This change adds a configurable throttling for idle-compaction.
