Summary

With Claude Code CLI first-party mode on (claudeCode.cliFirstParty), a plain claude used to list only Anthropic models in /model. Claude Desktop's picker mode already showed opencodex routes, but the CLI had no equivalent. After this change, a new claude session lists routed models such as "Xai/grok 4.7 (hub)", each described as opencodex · <route>. Picking one routes that session through OpenCodex.

How it works:

  • Where the list comes from. A first-party claude builds /model from GET api.anthropic.com/api/organizations/<org>/model_selector/cc. Older or flag-off sessions use the additional_model_options field of GET /api/claude_cli/bootstrap instead. Both already pass through the intercept TLS listener. A new cliCatalog hook (src/claude/intercept/cli-catalog.ts) merges opencodex rows into the cc surface only, and into the bootstrap fallback. Desktop's ccd/code surfaces are untouched.
  • Who gets the rows. The cc catalog is rewritten only for a CLI-classified User-Agent (claude-cli/<v> (external, cli)) with CLI first-party on. Claude Code caches that catalog on disk for every process, so a Desktop-spawned process must not seed rows a plain claude cannot route. The bootstrap request has no entrypoint in its User-Agent, so it follows CLI intent alone. Any failure (non-2xx, oversize, unparsable, nothing added, or a provider error) relays the upstream bytes unchanged.
  • Which ids the rows use. The CLI only offers Claude-shaped ids. A live probe showed ocx-claude-* rows rendering "Update Claude Code to use this model", while claude-opus-4-8-<date|pXXX|hash>[1m] rows were selectable. buildCliPickerModels therefore uses Desktop 3P registry aliases, and only ones the registry decodes back to the same route. A new src/claude/desktop-3p-startup.ts gives startup and the CLI picker one deduplicated registry build, so a claude launched right after OpenCodex starts still gets decodable rows. src/claude/intercept/cli-picker.ts builds the list lazily (cold wait 2.5 s) and persists the snapshot.
  • Cache invalidation. Claude Code trusts <claudeConfigDir>/cache/model-catalog/*-cc.json for about an hour. Those files are dropped whenever the intercept settings env is written, and on every successful reconcileClaudeFirstPartySettings (the toggle and ocx ensure). Desktop's *-ccd.json is left alone.
  • Usage surface. src/server/claude-messages.ts used to count any registry alias as Claude Desktop traffic. A CLI-classified request using one now stays on the Code surface and no longer marks Desktop as active.

Docs: guides/claude-code.md has a new "Model picker in the CLI" subsection. structure/runtime.md describes the contract, and structure/overview.md adds INV-CLIPICKER-01.

Verification

  • Live test (macOS, Claude Code 2.1.287, first-party OAuth).

    • Setup. A dev server from this branch ran as a sibling with an isolated OPENCODEX_HOME, so it made no client writes. Its only provider forwarded to the running OpenCodex. cliFirstParty was on, and ~/.claude/settings.json was written through applyClaudeInterceptSettings, which removed only the *-cc.json caches.
    • Picker. A plain claude in tmux (no extra env) listed 30+ routed rows in /model.
    • Routing. After selecting "Xai/grok 4.7 (hub)" for the session, the prompt answered OCX-PICKER-OK. The usage log shows provider: hub, model: xai/grok-4.7, inbound: messages.
    • Cleanup. Settings were restored through removeClaudeInterceptSettings and are byte-identical to the backup.
  • bun run typecheck, bun run structure:check and bun run privacy:scan pass.

  • Focused tests. tests/claude-integration/* (picker, intercept, first-party, desktop-3p, settings, messages) plus grok-lifecycle, test-layout, core-lab-boundary, structure-ssot, file-size-ratchet, repo-hygiene and usage-surfaces: 458 + 54 pass, 0 fail. New tests are claude-cli-picker.test.ts (18) and claude-cli-picker-surface.test.ts (1).

  • bun run test:changed. 8245 pass, 2 skip, 2 fail:

    • grok-lifecycle read src/cli/index.ts as text and looked for the moved registry call. Updated in this PR.
    • injection-model-suggest-routes (EISDIR) also fails on an untouched origin/dev checkout. It was already failing and is not touched here.
  • Already-failing pair. claude-messages-thread.test.ts followed by claude-messages-endpoint.test.ts in one process fails the same way on untouched origin/dev. Each passes alone.

  • The full bun run test was not run locally because of the failures above that were already on dev and contention from concurrent worktrees. Full coverage is left to CI.

  • Review fixes (6e1caad). These address the Codex and CodeRabbit findings. A restart now awaits the registry before re-checking a persisted snapshot. Rows are re-checked against their recorded route. The catalog body is streamed under the 16 MiB cap. On-demand registry builds wait 30 s before retrying after a failure. Each fix has a regression test, and after the fixes the focused set gives 379 + 54 pass, 0 fail.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults. Logs and docs never carry org ids or catalog bodies, the proxy token handling is unchanged, and the rewrite never alters credentials or the Messages path.

…y /model picker

With claudeCode.cliFirstParty on, a plain `claude` now lists routed models in /model.
The intercept listener merges rows into the CLI's served catalog
(GET /api/organizations/<org>/model_selector/cc, cc surface) and the fallback
/api/claude_cli/bootstrap additional_model_options, only for CLI-classified clients
with CLI first-party on, failing open on any error. Rows use Desktop 3P registry
aliases (the CLI offers only Claude-shaped ids) and only ones the registry decodes;
a shared deduped registry build serves startup and the CLI picker. Claude Code's
cached *-cc.json catalog is dropped when the settings env is written and on every
successful first-party reconcile. CLI requests using a registry alias keep the
Code usage surface instead of being counted as Claude Desktop.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds registry-backed model rows to eligible Claude Code CLI picker catalogs. It connects snapshot generation, catalog response rewriting, and cache invalidation to the intercept listener. It also updates registry startup, request classification, integration tests, invariants, and documentation.

Changes

Claude Code CLI picker

Layer / File(s) Summary
Desktop 3P registry startup and client classification
src/claude/desktop-3p-startup.ts, src/claude/desktop-3p.ts, src/cli/index.ts, src/server/claude-messages.ts, tests/claude-integration/claude-cli-picker-surface.test.ts, tests/providers/xai/grok-lifecycle.test.ts
Adds shared registry initialization and registry-size access. CLI startup calls the shared initializer. Desktop 3P aliases retain the Code surface for CLI-classified requests. Tests cover startup wiring and CLI-versus-Desktop surface classification.
Picker rows and persisted provider
src/claude/intercept/picker-models.ts, src/claude/intercept/cli-picker.ts, src/claude/intercept/picker-bootstrap.ts, tests/claude-integration/claude-cli-picker.test.ts
Builds CLI picker rows from active Desktop 3P aliases that resolve to the same route. Adds descriptions and configurable injection options. The provider loads and refreshes a persisted snapshot, filters unroutable rows, and bounds cold-start waiting. Tests cover row generation, registry validation, snapshot caching, and wait limits.
Catalog rewriting, listener wiring, and invalidation
src/claude/intercept/cli-catalog.ts, src/claude/intercept/listener.ts, src/claude/intercept/runtime.ts, src/claude/intercept/settings.ts, src/claude/first-party-settings.ts, tests/claude-integration/claude-cli-picker.test.ts, structure/overview.md, structure/runtime.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/claude-code.md, devlog/_plan/261002_claude_cli_picker/*, scripts/test-layout/layout.json, tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json
Recognizes eligible model-selector and bootstrap requests, rewrites responses when rows are available, and preserves upstream responses when rewriting does not apply. Wires the provider into the listener and removes cached CLI catalogs after settings writes or successful reconciliation. Tests cover response handling, relay behavior, and invalidation. The docs and structure notes describe the picker conditions and behavior; the test layout includes the new integration tests.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 6e1ca

The CLI picker changes preserve Desktop surfaces and upstream fallback behavior, with route validation and cache invalidation supporting model selection. No merge-blocking issue is established; merge after normal checks pass.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6e1ca

The new choices are opt-in and checked against the destinations they represent. No security regression was established, but behavior during simultaneous configuration changes remains partly unverified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The new exposure is selection of configured routed destinations by CLI sessions using the shared interception configuration and catalog state. Session content can consequently reach those providers through existing routing. Catalog response fields and caller-supplied hosts do not themselves create new route authority.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Alias publication requires exact route equality both when building rows and when serving persisted rows. Registry construction excludes genuine Anthropic identifiers from routed decoding and rejects colliding hash aliases. Missing managed aliases raise mapping errors rather than silently selecting a guessed routed destination.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Current-registry validation contains stale snapshot identity mismatches, but does not prove freshness of the registry itself. Initialization is serialized only through its shared wrapper; other generators also replace global registry state. Snapshot writes lack cross-instance generation checks, and eligibility is checked before asynchronous work rather than again at publication. Whether these races materially change recipient authority remains unproven.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider configuration-generation tags for registry and snapshot publication, plus a terminal eligibility recheck, so older asynchronous work cannot publish after a settings transition. Atomic snapshot replacement would also improve interruption and cross-process recovery. These are hardening proposals, not verified security findings.

Await the shared registry build before re-checking a persisted snapshot after a
restart, re-check each row against the route it was minted for, stream the
catalog body under the 16 MiB cap instead of buffering it, and stop on-demand
registry retries for 30 s after a failed or empty build.
