Cline 3.0.70-3.0.73 advertise a provider selector and then the real model selector, both in the ACP 'model' category. T3's model picker uses the first (findModelConfigOption), and acpProviderOptionDescriptors dropped every 'model'-category option, so the real model selector (the ClinePass models) could not be reached anywhere. The fix excludes only the primary model option (the one findModelConfigOption returns, so the picker and the options use the same rule) and keeps later model-category selectors as session option descriptors. The adapter already applies the primary model first and then session options through setConfigOption (only advertised values), so picking a ClinePass model in the new 'Model' option sends session/set_config_option {configId:'model', value:'cline-pass/...'}. Agents with a single model selector, including Cline 3.0.74, are unchanged. No new regex or parser. The repro test (sessionConfig.test.ts) failed before the change and passes after it. Not checked against a live Cline 3.0.70 in the app.

Fixes #22537

Reproduction on main

Commit bfec275 (origin/main). Started the web dev server with T3CODE_DEV_SEED=0. Installed the Cline CLI in scratch and gave it a fake ClinePass credential in its providers.json, which gets past Cline's ACP sign-in so session/new returns the real ClinePass catalog. Added Cline as a Settings → Providers → Local ACP command through a small wrapper that logged the ACP requests T3 sent. (1) Cline 3.0.74: the settings card and the composer picker listed all 20 ClinePass models; choosing GLM-5.3 showed 'GLM-5.3, ClinePass · Act' and T3 sent session/set_config_option {configId:'model', value:'cline-pass/glm-5.3'}, which is correct. (2) Same app with Cline 3.0.70 (the version the related reports name): session/new returns a 'provider' selector (category model, Cline Usage-Billing / ClinePass / OpenAI ChatGPT Subscription) followed by a 'model' selector (category model). After refreshing providers, the composer picker for Cline listed only the three provider choices, the button read 'ClinePass', and no ClinePass model could be picked. In the existing thread saved with cline-pass/glm-5.3, sending a turn showed 'cline-pass/glm-5.3 → ClinePass' in the timeline and failed with 'The agent did not accept the model "cline-pass"'. Checked Cline's binaries: 3.0.71, 3.0.72 and 3.0.73 also give the provider selector category 'model'; 3.0.74 (released 2026-10-26, after the report) uses '_provider', and the ACP Registry now publishes 3.0.74. A failing unit test in sessionConfig.test.ts shows the second model-category selector is dropped.

Evidence

Being captured: before and after in the real app. This section is filled in before the pull request can merge.

Tests

vp test run packages/provider-acp/src/server/sessionConfig.test.ts: before the fix 1 failed / 6 passed (the repro test); after the fix 7/7 passed. vp test run packages/provider-acp packages/provider-acp-registry: 13 files, 169 tests passed. vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck (14 packages), tests all pass.

Not in this change

  • The primary model picker for Cline 3.0.70-3.0.73 still lists the billing providers and its label reads 'ClinePass'. Merging the provider and model selectors into one picker is the broader redesign in PR fix(acp): expose and preserve later model choices #19754.
  • Threads saved with a secondary-selector value as their model (e.g. cline-pass/glm-5.3) are still checked against the primary provider selector and can be rejected. Moving such saved values onto the secondary selector is a separate migration and behaviour change.
  • No end-to-end check against a real Cline 3.0.70 in the app; covered by unit tests and the adapter's existing option-apply path.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 9899cb2

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Later ACP model-category selectors remain accessible while the primary model continues using the dedicated control. Existing selections and validation remain unchanged, keeping the impact limited to control availability.

Walkthrough

The ACP provider option descriptor logic now skips the primary model option rather than all options categorized as models. A test verifies that a following model selector remains available with its current value and choices.

Changes: ACP model option descriptors

Layer / File(s) Summary
Primary model option filtering
packages/provider-acp/src/server/sessionConfig.ts, packages/provider-acp/src/server/sessionConfig.test.ts
The descriptor logic uses findModelConfigOption to identify the primary model option. The test verifies that a second model-category selector retains its current value and choices.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 9899c

Later model selectors become reachable, as intended. If a catalog has more than 64 models, the extra ones would be hidden, so owners should confirm the catalog size. This is a bounded follow-up and not a merge blocker.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "fix(acp): later model-category selectors stay reachable" names the main change. The PR keeps later model-category selectors reachable by excluding only the primary model option from session option descriptors, which matches the stated objective. It is a conventional commit title in plain language, and it does not describe anything absent from the changeset.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. It has a Problem section (Cline 3.0.70-3.0.73 advertise two model-category selectors, so ClinePass models are unreachable), a Change section (exclude only the primary model option from session option descriptors), a Scope section (links issue #22537 and explains the bug), and a Verification section with focused test results and the before/after failure. The Evidence section says it is pending, and it states that the live Cline 3.0.70 check was not done. The template's before/after screenshot requirement for UI changes is unmet and the Evidence section is marked as incomplete, so the description is not fully complete. The core sections are present and specific, so the check passes.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The source change is small and limited to model option handling in acpProviderOptionDescriptors. It replaces the category-based skip of model options with an identity check against findModelConfigOption, and it keeps the collaboration_mode skip. The import change supplies findModelConfigOption to the same module, so the picker and the descriptors use one primary-model rule. The test file adds a regression test for the same rule. No unrelated files or behavior changes appear in the reviewed diff. The PR also lists its explicit exclusions (merged picker, saved-thread migration, live Cline 3.0.70 validation). These exclusions are stated, not implemented.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Directly linked issue #22537 has these coding requirements: (a) the model picker shows all available cline-pass/... models for ClinePass accounts; (b) the picker shows the actual active model, not only the "ClinePass" provider label; (c) the picker sends well-formed ACP model config instead of the model slug as the provider value; (d) the Cline model list is consistent.

The diff in packages/provider-acp/src/server/sessionConfig.ts excludes only the primary model option (found by findModelConfigOption) from acpProviderOptionDescriptors. Later model-category selectors remain session option descriptors. The new test in sessionConfig.test.ts covers this rule. This change addresses part of (a) and (c): the secondary ClinePass model selector can now be reached, and its value is sent through session/set_config_option with configId 'model'. The PR reports that the repro test failed before the change and passes after it.

Unmet requirements: The PR description states that the primary picker for Cline 3.0.70-3.0.73 still lists only the billing providers. Its label still reads 'ClinePass' and the active model is not shown. Requirement (b) is therefore not implemented. Requirement (a) is also incomplete in the primary picker. The PR does not verify that the composer picker lists the secondary models; it relies on unit tests only. The PR also does not change the handling of saved threads that use a secondary-selector model value.

Resolution

Show the active model in the ACP model picker label, and list the secondary model-category selector values (for example cline-pass/...) in the picker for Cline 3.0.70-3.0.73. Add a test or UI check that confirms the picker shows the selected model. Then re-assess requirements (a) and (b) against the changed picker code.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Secondary model selectors can lose choices beyond 64 entries.

The retained secondary model selector passes through selectChoices, which stops after 64 unique choices (sessionConfig.ts:50). Choices after the 64th are dropped without any signal. If the active model is among them, currentValue is also omitted (sessionConfig.ts:98-105). The descriptor schema sets no maximum on options (packages/contracts/src/model.ts:27), and the ACP agent supplies the list. A larger catalog can therefore hide models that this change is meant to expose.

The limit already applies to every other select, so this change does not regress existing selectors. The size of the ClinePass catalog determines whether this affects users. Decide whether this selector should keep the 64-choice cap, and whether the active model should stay selectable when it lies beyond the cap.
