feat: add model type autocomplete with api based suggestions and plat… by statxc · Pull Request #1204 · eigent-ai/eigent

statxc · 2026-02-09T16:05:49Z

Description

Support suggesting model types in model configuration. When configuring an AI model provider, the model type field now shows a searchable dropdown with all available model types from CAMEL enum, filtered by platform. For OpenAI-compatible platforms with an API key, live models are also fetched from the API and merged into suggestions.

This seems not match with the PLATFORM_PREFIXES for example for the openai

Any reason why we need .replace("-", "_")?

platform_lower is calc twice, the other time is at https://github.com/eigent-ai/eigent/pull/1204/changes#diff-eaaca13f9e3defe932ff766fdf47ab89c4ea0163bbd21bad80fc94f82b22e4a8R273

When meet network instability, there is no way to retry.

@intelliking is it possible to rank the models from newer to older. Also @Wendong-Fan, it seems lots of models are deprecated from the model providers. Should we remove them from the CAMEL side?
