Summary

  • Add Codex-style --model/-m and --provider/-p launch overrides to the OpenHuman CLI.
  • Accept configured provider IDs or routing slugs, including --model-id and --provider-id aliases.
  • Apply one transient route to chat, reasoning, agentic, and coding workloads for the CLI process only.
  • Preserve persisted desktop configuration and support colon-bearing local model IDs such as qwen3:8b.

Problem

  • CLI users could not choose the inference model and provider for a single OpenHuman launch without editing persisted configuration.

Solution

  • Parse launch-wide flags before command dispatch, following the global-option shape used by the Codex CLI.
  • Store launch overrides in process-local state and apply them after persisted and environment configuration is loaded.
  • Resolve opaque configured provider IDs to routing slugs before constructing the workload route.
  • Keep managed OpenHuman routing on its sentinel while applying the selected managed model through default_model.

Submission Checklist

  • Tests added or updated (happy path + at least one failure / edge case) per Testing Strategy
  • Diff coverage ≥ 80% — targeted unit and binary E2E coverage exercises the changed launch parsing and routing paths; CI Lite will enforce the merged diff gate.
  • N/A: behaviour-only change; no coverage-matrix feature row added, removed, or renamed.
  • N/A: no affected feature IDs because this enriches the existing CLI launch surface.
  • No new external network dependencies introduced; E2E uses an isolated local workspace.
  • N/A: no release-cut manual smoke surface changed.
  • N/A: no linked GitHub issue.

Impact

  • CLI only. Existing invocations and persisted configuration remain compatible.
  • Overrides must precede the subcommand and last repeated value wins.
  • No migration, new credential storage, or external network dependency.

Behavior Changes

  • Intended behavior change: allow a CLI launch to select a model and provider without editing persistent settings.
  • User-visible effect: openhuman -p <provider> -m <model> routes interactive CLI workloads through that selection for the current process.

Parity Contract

  • Legacy behavior preserved: no flags leaves all existing provider routing and config precedence unchanged.
  • Guard/fallback/dispatch parity checks: global parsing stops at the subcommand; managed, custom, and local provider routes keep existing factory grammar.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added global --model and --provider options, including short forms, for temporary inference overrides.
    • Added --no-tui to prevent automatic launch of the terminal interface.
    • Overrides apply consistently across supported commands and provider types.
    • Overrides take precedence over saved settings and environment values without being persisted.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved validation for missing or empty option values.
    • Updated help text with the new global options and command usage.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI now supports global provider, model, and TUI options. Configuration loading applies transient inference overrides after environment setup. Saving restores persisted inference fields. Tests cover parsing, routing, precedence, aliases, validation, and persistence.

Changes

CLI inference overrides

Layer / File(s) Summary
Launch option parsing
src/core/cli.rs, src/core/cli_tests.rs
The CLI parses long and short provider/model options, validates values, preserves subcommand arguments, and handles --no-tui. Help text documents the new options.
Configuration override application
src/openhuman/config/schema/cli_overrides/mod.rs, src/openhuman/config/schema/load/..., src/openhuman/config/schema/types.rs, src/openhuman/config/...
Configuration loading applies normalized provider and model overrides across inference routes. Managed-provider routing and aliases are handled. Saving restores transient fields before serialization.
Override behavior validation
src/openhuman/config/schema/cli_overrides/mod.rs, tests/cli_model_overrides_e2e.rs
Unit and end-to-end tests cover provider and model resolution, defaults, aliases, errors, mutating commands, and non-persistence.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to 615e4

The CLI now applies provider and model overrides across interactive workloads for the process, but long-lived applications that invoke the CLI repeatedly could unexpectedly retain an earlier route or restore stale routing settings after a reload. The change is otherwise bounded to configured providers and does not alter persisted settings during normal use, so it is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on invocation-scoped cleanup.

Poem

I hop through flags at break of day,
Provider and model lead the way.
TUI may rest, commands run true,
Saved config keeps its values too.
Tests bloom bright in rows of green—
A carrot toast to the launch routine! 🐇

In `@src/core/cli.rs`:
- Around line 159-162: Update the required-value parsing in the CLI option
handling around args.get(i) so a following token beginning with "-" is rejected
as a missing model or provider value rather than accepted. Preserve valid
non-option values, and add coverage for this case in
launch_options_reject_missing_or_empty_values.

In `@src/openhuman/config/schema/cli_overrides.rs`:
- Around line 1-17: Move the cli_overrides module from the schema root file into
the dedicated cli_overrides subdirectory as mod.rs, preserving the existing
CliInferenceOverrides and CLI_INFERENCE_OVERRIDES definitions and updating
module references as needed.

In `@src/openhuman/config/schema/load/env_overlay.rs`:
- Around line 57-61: Ensure Config::save() excludes the transient inference
fields applied by apply_cli_inference_overrides, including provider, model, and
default_model, so generic CLI handlers that mutate and save configuration never
persist --provider or --model values. Preserve these overrides for the in-memory
runtime configuration, and add an end-to-end regression test covering a mutating
CLI command followed by save and verification that config.toml retains the
pre-CLI values.

- Around line 117-121: Update Config::load_from_config_path and the override
persistence flow so each loaded Config instance retains its own baseline and
applied inference snapshot without serializing those fields, rather than reusing
the first snapshot keyed only by config path. Ensure reloads capture current
persisted inference settings and later unrelated saves cannot restore stale
provider values; add a regression test covering load, explicit inference-field
save, reload, and unrelated save.
