# Plan: Add Mistral AI as Alternative Chat Provider
## Context
bDS currently routes all AI chat through the OpenCode Zen gateway (`opencode.ai/zen/v1/...`) with two code paths: Anthropic Messages API and OpenAI-compatible. The user wants Mistral AI added as a direct alternative provider with frontier models that support chat completion, tool use, and vision. Mistral's API is OpenAI-compatible (`api.mistral.ai/v1/chat/completions`), making integration straightforward.
**Important architecture facts:**
- HTTP requests are currently **non-streaming** (full response body collected, text emitted after each complete call) — to be converted to SSE streaming in a **separate prerequisite PR** (PR 1)
- API keys are stored in **plain-text SQLite** — to be migrated to Electron `safeStorage` (OS keychain) for all providers in a **separate prerequisite PR** (PR 2)
- Neither `sendAnthropicMessage()` nor `sendOpenAIMessage()` currently sets `tool_choice`
- `sendOpenAIMessage()` does **not** convert `view_image` results to `image_url` format — they are JSON-stringified
- `generateConversationTitle()` is hardcoded to `claude-haiku-4-5` via `ZEN_ANTHROPIC_URL`
- `analyzeMediaImage()` is hardcoded to `claude-sonnet-4-5` via `ZEN_ANTHROPIC_URL`
- `checkReady()` only checks the OpenCode key — blocks `sendMessage()` for keyless users
- Internal `ModelInfo` type (returned by `getAvailableModels()`) is `{ id, name, provider }` — same shape as `ChatModel` in `electronApi.ts`; ensure they stay aligned when adding `vision` field
## PR Structure
This work is split into **3 sequential PRs** to reduce risk:
| PR | Scope | Key Changes |
|----|-------|-------------|
| **PR 1 — SSE Streaming** ✅ | Standalone feature, no Mistral dependency | `httpRequestStream()`, SSE parsers (Anthropic + OpenAI formats), `stream: true` in request bodies, tool-call accumulation during streaming |
| **PR 2 — Keychain Migration** ✅ | Standalone security improvement | Migrate OpenCode API key from plain-text SQLite to `safeStorage`; add encryption/decryption wrappers; delete old plain-text keys (no migration); cross-platform (macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, Linux libsecret) |
| **PR 3 — Mistral Integration** | Builds on PR 1 + PR 2 | Mistral constants, model detection, key storage (using keychain from PR 2), parameterized `sendOpenAIMessage()`, vision fix, provider-aware routing, UI changes, i18n |
## Target Models
Use **latest aliases** (not dated IDs) so models auto-update when Mistral releases new versions. `getAvailableModels()` fetches the actual model list from the API; `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES` provides human-readable names for known models.
| Model ID (latest alias) | Display Name | Vision | Tools | Context Window | Context Budget |
|------------------------|-------------|--------|-------|----------------|----------------|
| `mistral-large-latest` | Mistral Large | yes | yes | 40k | 35,000 |
| `mistral-medium-latest` | Mistral Medium | yes | yes | 40k | 35,000 |
| `mistral-small-latest` | Mistral Small | yes | yes | 128k | 120,000 |
| `devstral-small-latest` | Devstral Small | no | yes | 128k | 120,000 |
| `devstral-large-latest` | Devstral Large | no | yes | 256k | 240,000 |
## Files to Modify
### 1. `src/main/engine/OpenCodeManager.ts` - Core provider logic
**A. Add Mistral constants** (near lines 23-25)
- `MISTRAL_API_URL = 'https://api.mistral.ai/v1/chat/completions'`
- `MISTRAL_MODELS_URL = 'https://api.mistral.ai/v1/models'`
**B. Add Mistral models to `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES`** (lines 28-69)
```
'mistral-large-latest': 'Mistral Large'
'mistral-medium-latest': 'Mistral Medium'
'mistral-small-latest': 'Mistral Small'
'devstral-small-latest': 'Devstral Small'
'devstral-large-latest': 'Devstral Large'
```
**C. Update `detectProvider()`** (lines 1839-1845)
- Add: `if (id.startsWith('mistral') || id.startsWith('ministral') || id.startsWith('devstral') || id.startsWith('codestral') || id.startsWith('pixtral')) return 'mistral';`
- This covers all current and foreseeable Mistral model prefixes (Mistral, Ministral, Devstral, Codestral, Pixtral)
**C2. Update `formatModelName()` and `UPPERCASE_PREFIXES`**
- `formatModelName()` (L1869) first checks `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES`, then auto-formats via hyphen splitting + capitalization
- All 5 Mistral models are in `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES`, so auto-format is a fallback for future unknown models — no changes needed
- `UPPERCASE_PREFIXES` (L72) contains `['gpt', 'glm']` — no Mistral prefixes need uppercasing, so no changes needed
**D. Add Mistral API key storage (using keychain from PR 2)**
- New field: `private mistralApiKey: string = ''`
- New methods: `setMistralApiKey()`, `getMistralApiKey()`, `validateMistralApiKey()`
- Load on init via `SecureKeyStore.retrieve()` (keychain infrastructure from PR 2)
- Store/retrieve using the same `SecureKeyStore` wrapper that PR 2 introduces for the OpenCode key
- No plain-text fallback — `safeStorage` is required
**E. Update `checkReady()`**
- Return `ready: true` if **either** OpenCode key or Mistral key is set
- Extend `ChatReadyStatus` to report per-provider availability, e.g. `providers: { opencode: boolean, mistral: boolean }`
- Callers (`Sidebar.tsx`, `sendMessage()`) must gate on the relevant provider, not a single boolean
**F. Parameterize `sendOpenAIMessage()` for Mistral (no separate method)**
- Mistral uses the identical OpenAI-compatible chat/completions format — creating a separate `sendMistralRequest()` would be a near-duplicate
- Instead, parameterize `sendOpenAIMessage()` to accept URL, API key, and provider-specific options:
- Add params: `apiUrl: string`, `apiKey: string`, `providerOptions?: { parallelToolCalls?: boolean }`
- `sendMessage()` determines provider via `detectProvider()` and calls `sendOpenAIMessage()` with the correct URL/key/options
- For OpenCode OpenAI path: URL = `ZEN_OPENAI_URL`, key = `this.apiKey`
- For Mistral: URL = `MISTRAL_API_URL`, key = `this.mistralApiKey`, `parallelToolCalls: false`
- `tool_choice`: omit entirely for all OpenAI-compatible providers (default `"auto"` is correct)
- `parallel_tool_calls: false` — set explicitly for Mistral only; our tool executor runs tools sequentially, so parallel tool calls would break the execution loop
**F1b. Update `requestProvider` closure in `sendMessage()`**
- The `requestProvider` lambda (~line 362) dispatches to `sendAnthropicMessage()` or `sendOpenAIMessage()` based on `detectProvider()`
- The else branch must pass provider-specific URL/key/options when calling `sendOpenAIMessage()`:
- `provider === 'mistral'`: URL = `MISTRAL_API_URL`, key = `this.mistralApiKey`, options = `{ parallelToolCalls: false }`
- All other non-Anthropic providers: URL = `ZEN_OPENAI_URL`, key = `this.apiKey` (existing behavior)
- Helper method `getProviderConfig(provider)` could return `{ apiUrl, apiKey, options }` to keep `requestProvider` clean
**F2. Add `MODEL_CONTEXT_BUDGETS` map**
- New constant map `MODEL_CONTEXT_BUDGETS: Record<string, number>` with per-model token budgets
- `truncateToTokenBudget()` (L1654) currently defaults to `maxContextTokens = 150000`
- In `sendAnthropicMessage()` and `sendOpenAIMessage()`: pass the model's context budget from the map (defaulting to 150,000 for OpenCode models)
- The parameterized `sendOpenAIMessage()` looks up `MODEL_CONTEXT_BUDGETS[modelId]` for Mistral models and passes to truncation
- Values (keyed by latest aliases):
- `'mistral-large-latest': 35_000`
- `'mistral-medium-latest': 35_000`
- `'mistral-small-latest': 120_000`
- `'devstral-small-latest': 120_000`
- `'devstral-large-latest': 240_000`
**G. Fix tool-call message history in OpenAI-compatible path**
- Within a single `sendMessage()` call, the tool loop correctly tracks tool results across rounds
- However, `tool` role messages are not persisted to DB-backed conversation history — on conversation resume, the model loses context about prior tool results
- Ensure `tool` role messages are included when persisting conversation history so cross-session continuity works
- This affects all OpenAI-compatible providers (OpenCode OpenAI path + Mistral)
**H. Fix vision in OpenAI-compatible path (affects Mistral too)**
- `sendOpenAIMessage()` currently JSON-stringifies `view_image` results — no `image_url` conversion
- Add `image_url` format conversion for `__isImageResult` objects in the OpenAI path:
`{ type: 'image_url', image_url: { url: 'data:image/webp;base64,...' } }`
- This fixes vision for all OpenAI-compatible providers, not just Mistral
**I. Update `getAvailableModels()` — merge from both providers**
- **Model list merge strategy**: fetch models from each configured provider's API endpoint and merge into a single list. When both keys are configured, return models from both; when only one key is set, return only that provider's models; when no key is set, return an empty list (UI disables the dropdown)
- OpenCode models: fetched from existing OpenCode API (as today)
- Mistral models: fetched from `GET https://api.mistral.ai/v1/models` when Mistral key is set; cross-reference returned IDs with `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES` to use display names + static `vision`/`contextBudget` metadata
- Every model entry carries `provider: 'opencode' | 'mistral'` so the UI and engine can resolve the correct API URL + key
- Invalidate `cachedModels`/`cachedModelsAt` when any provider key is added or removed
**I2. Filter fallback model list by available keys**
- `getAvailableModels()` currently falls back to the full `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES` map when the API call fails
- With Mistral models added to `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES`, the fallback would show Mistral models even without a Mistral key
- Filter fallback: `fallback.filter(m => this.isProviderKeySet(m.provider))` — only include models whose provider has a configured key
- Add helper `isProviderKeySet(provider: string): boolean` that checks the relevant key field
- **Same issue in `validateApiKey()`**: currently returns models from the full `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES` map regardless of which provider key was validated. Once Mistral models are added, a successful OpenCode validation would incorrectly include Mistral models. Apply the same `isProviderKeySet()` filter to `validateApiKey()` results
**I3. Add `MODEL_CAPABILITIES` map for vision flags**
- The Mistral API's `/v1/models` endpoint does NOT include a `vision` field — vision capability must come from a local static map
- New constant: `MODEL_CAPABILITIES: Record<string, { vision: boolean }>` keyed by model ID
- Entries for Mistral models:
- `'mistral-large-latest': { vision: true }`
- `'mistral-medium-latest': { vision: true }`
- `'mistral-small-latest': { vision: true }`
- `'devstral-small-latest': { vision: false }`
- `'devstral-large-latest': { vision: false }`
- OpenCode models also need vision flags (e.g., `'claude-sonnet-4-5': { vision: true }`, `'o3': { vision: false }`) for the image analysis model dropdown filter
- `getAvailableModels()` attaches `vision` from this map to each returned model
- Falls back to `vision: false` for unknown models (safe default; prevents non-vision models from appearing in the image analysis dropdown)
**I4. Reconcile `ModelInfo` and `ChatModel` types**
- Internal `ModelInfo` (returned by `getAvailableModels()`) is `{ id, name, provider }` — same shape as `ChatModel` in `electronApi.ts`
- When adding `vision: boolean` to `ChatModel`, also update `ModelInfo` (or alias/merge them) so the engine and renderer use the same type
- Simplest approach: remove `ModelInfo`, use `ChatModel` everywhere (engine + IPC + renderer)
**J. Update `generateConversationTitle()` — make configurable in Preferences**
- Currently hardcoded to `claude-haiku-4-5` via `ZEN_ANTHROPIC_URL` with OpenCode key
- Add a **"Title generation model"** preference in Settings so users can pick the cheapest model for this task
- Default: `claude-haiku-4-5` (OpenCode) or `mistral-small-latest` (Mistral) based on available keys
- Route to the correct provider URL + API key based on the selected model's provider
- Must work with any configured provider, not just OpenCode
**K. Update `analyzeMediaImage()` — make configurable in Preferences** (lines 2066-2192)
- Currently hardcoded to `claude-sonnet-4-5` via `ZEN_ANTHROPIC_URL`
- Add an **"Image analysis model"** preference in Settings so users can select a dedicated vision model independent of their chat model (e.g. use Devstral for chat but Mistral Large 3 for images)
- **Only vision-capable models may be offered** — filter model list by a `vision` capability flag (e.g. Devstral models have no vision and must be excluded)
- Default: `claude-sonnet-4-5` (OpenCode) or first vision-capable Mistral model based on available keys
- Route to the correct provider URL + API key based on the selected model's provider
- When routed to Mistral: use `image_url` format with base64 data URI
- When routed to OpenCode/Anthropic: keep current Anthropic-native `image` block format
**L. Update `analyzeTaxonomy()`**
- Currently uses `this.apiKey` (OpenCode) for both Anthropic and OpenAI paths
- Has an early-return guard `if (!this.apiKey)` that must become provider-aware — check Mistral key when provider is Mistral
- When a Mistral model is selected: use Mistral API key + `MISTRAL_API_URL`
- Must branch on provider to select correct key and URL
- **Note**: the OpenAI branch inside `analyzeTaxonomy()` also hardcodes `ZEN_OPENAI_URL` and `this.apiKey` — both must become provider-aware (use `getProviderConfig(provider)` helper from F1b)
**L2. Update `analyzeMediaImage()` API key guard**
- Same issue: has `if (!this.apiKey)` early-return guard
- Must become provider-aware — check the relevant provider's key based on the selected image analysis model
- When routed to Mistral: check `this.mistralApiKey` instead of `this.apiKey`
**M. Convert chat HTTP calls to SSE streaming (PR 1 — separate prerequisite PR)**
> **This entire section (M1M6) is implemented in PR 1, before the Mistral PR.** The Mistral PR (PR 3) inherits streaming support and only needs to pass the correct URL/key/options to the already-streaming `sendOpenAIMessage()`.
Currently `httpRequest()` buffers the entire response body before any text reaches the UI. Users wait 530s per API round with only a bouncing-dots indicator. All three providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral) support `stream: true` with SSE.
**M1. Core streaming infrastructure — `httpRequestStream()`**
- New method (~100 lines) — uses Node.js `https.request()` but reads `res` as a readable stream
- Returns an async iterable of parsed SSE events (or accepts an `onEvent` callback)
- SSE line protocol: lines separated by `\n\n`, each line prefixed with `event: ` or `data: `
- Must handle:
- Buffering partial lines across `data` chunks (TCP may split mid-line)
- Empty `data:` lines (keep-alive pings)
- `data: [DONE]` sentinel — terminates the stream for OpenAI/Mistral (do NOT try to JSON.parse this)
- Multiple `data:` lines between double-newlines (concatenate per SSE spec)
- Supports `AbortSignal` — calls `req.destroy()` to terminate immediately
- 120-second timeout matching existing `httpRequest()`
- On non-2xx status: collect the error body (not streamed) and throw with parsed error message
**M2. SSE parser for OpenAI/Mistral format** (~50 lines)
OpenAI and Mistral use identical SSE event structure:
```
data: {"id":"...","choices":[{"delta":{"content":"Hello"}}]}
data: {"id":"...","choices":[{"delta":{"tool_calls":[{"index":0,"id":"call_...","function":{"name":"search_posts","arguments":""}}]}}]}
data: {"id":"...","choices":[{"delta":{"tool_calls":[{"index":0,"function":{"arguments":"{\"query\""}}]}}]}
...
data: {"id":"...","usage":{"prompt_tokens":150,"completion_tokens":42,"total_tokens":192}}
data: [DONE]
```
- **Text deltas**: `choices[0].delta.content` — emit via `onDelta(content)` immediately
- **Tool call start**: `delta.tool_calls[i]` with `id` + `function.name` — begin accumulating arguments for tool call at index `i`
- **Tool call argument fragments**: `delta.tool_calls[i].function.arguments` — append to argument accumulator string for index `i`
- **Finish reason**: `choices[0].finish_reason === 'tool_calls'` or `'stop'` — signals end of this chunk
- **Token usage**: arrives in the **final chunk before `[DONE]`** only if `stream_options: { include_usage: true }` is set in the request body — parse `usage.prompt_tokens`, `usage.completion_tokens`, `usage.total_tokens`
- **`[DONE]` sentinel**: stop iteration, do NOT JSON.parse
- After stream ends: if tool calls were accumulated, JSON.parse each tool's assembled arguments string and execute
**M3. SSE parser for Anthropic format** (~60 lines)
Anthropic uses named event types:
```
event: message_start
data: {"type":"message_start","message":{"id":"...","model":"...","usage":{"input_tokens":150}}}
event: content_block_start
data: {"type":"content_block_start","index":0,"content_block":{"type":"text","text":""}}
event: content_block_delta
data: {"type":"content_block_delta","index":0,"delta":{"type":"text_delta","text":"Hello"}}
event: content_block_start
data: {"type":"content_block_start","index":1,"content_block":{"type":"tool_use","id":"toolu_...","name":"search_posts"}}
event: content_block_delta
data: {"type":"content_block_delta","index":1,"delta":{"type":"input_json_delta","partial_json":"{\"query\""}}
event: content_block_stop
data: {"type":"content_block_stop","index":1}
event: message_delta
data: {"type":"message_delta","delta":{"stop_reason":"tool_use"},"usage":{"output_tokens":42}}
event: message_stop
data: {"type":"message_stop"}
```
- **`message_start`**: extract `usage.input_tokens` (prompt tokens) + `usage.cache_read_input_tokens` + `usage.cache_creation_input_tokens`
- **`content_block_start`** with `type: 'text'`: no-op (empty initial text)
- **`content_block_start`** with `type: 'tool_use'`: record tool call `id` and `name` at block index
- **`content_block_delta`** with `type: 'text_delta'`: emit via `onDelta(delta.text)` immediately
- **`content_block_delta`** with `type: 'input_json_delta'`: append `delta.partial_json` to argument accumulator
- **`content_block_stop`**: if tool block, JSON.parse the accumulated arguments for that block
- **`message_delta`**: extract `usage.output_tokens` (completion tokens), `delta.stop_reason`
- **`message_stop`**: stream complete
- **`ping`**: ignore (keep-alive)
- **`error`**: throw with `data.error.message` — handles mid-stream server errors (e.g. overloaded)
**M4. Request body changes**
- `sendAnthropicMessage()`: add `"stream": true` to request body
- `sendOpenAIMessage()` (used for both OpenCode OpenAI and Mistral): add `"stream": true` and `"stream_options": { "include_usage": true }` to request body — this is **required** to receive token usage in streaming mode (without it, usage is omitted from streamed responses)
**M5. Tool call accumulation during streaming**
- Tool call arguments arrive as partial JSON fragments across many SSE events
- Maintain a per-stream accumulator: `Map<number, { id: string, name: string, arguments: string }>` keyed by tool call index
- Append each `arguments` fragment to the accumulator string
- On stream completion (finish_reason `tool_calls`/`tool_use`, or `content_block_stop` for Anthropic): JSON.parse the full accumulated arguments string and execute the tool
- If JSON.parse fails on accumulated arguments, report a tool error to the model and continue
**M6. Error handling during streaming**
- **Non-2xx status on connection**: do NOT stream; collect the full error body and throw (same as current `httpRequest()` behavior)
- **Mid-stream TCP disconnect / network error**: `res.on('error')` handler — emit whatever text was accumulated so far, then throw so the tool-call loop can surface the error to the user
- **Mid-stream API error event**: Anthropic sends `event: error` with error details; OpenAI/Mistral return an error JSON in a `data:` line — detect and throw with parsed error message
- **Abort during streaming**: `req.destroy()` triggers `res.on('error')` or `res.on('close')` — handle gracefully without surfacing as an error to the user (it's intentional cancellation)
**M7. Retry with exponential backoff for transient errors**
- Applies to **all providers** (Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral) for both streaming and non-streaming calls
- Retry on HTTP status codes: `429` (rate limit), `503` (service unavailable), `502` (bad gateway)
- Max 3 retries with exponential backoff: ~1s, ~2s, ~4s (with jitter)
- For `429`: respect `Retry-After` header if present (use as minimum delay)
- For streaming: retry the entire request (cannot resume a partial SSE stream)
- Do NOT retry on `4xx` errors other than 429 (client errors like 400, 401, 403 are not transient)
- Do NOT retry on abort (intentional cancellation)
- Emit a brief status via `onDelta` or logging so the user knows a retry is in progress (e.g., "[Retrying...]") — or silently retry if preferred
- Wrap in a helper: `withRetry(fn, { maxRetries: 3, retryableStatuses: [429, 502, 503] })`
**What does NOT change:**
- The renderer pipeline — `onDelta` → IPC `chat-stream-delta``appendStreamDelta` → React state → live Markdown rendering already works token-by-token; it just receives one big chunk today
- `AbortController` abort support — `req.destroy()` stops the stream immediately instead of wasting a buffered response
- The tool-call loop structure — still max 10 rounds, still sequential
**What to keep non-streaming:**
- `generateConversationTitle()` — small one-shot request, buffering is fine
- `analyzeMediaImage()` — one-shot, no UI streaming needed
- `analyzeTaxonomy()` — one-shot, no UI streaming needed
- `validateApiKey()` / `validateMistralApiKey()` — small validation requests
- Note: `validateMistralApiKey()` must call `GET https://api.mistral.ai/v1/models` with `Authorization: Bearer ${key}`. Mistral returns `{ data: [{ id, object, created, owned_by }] }` — check for HTTP 200 + non-empty `data` array. On 401, return invalid. On success, optionally cross-reference returned model IDs with `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES` to verify expected models are available
**Estimated scope:** ~350 lines of new code in `OpenCodeManager.ts` (streaming ~200 lines + retry ~50 lines + parsers ~100 lines)
### 1b. Keychain Migration (PR 2 — separate prerequisite PR)
> **This section is implemented in PR 2, before the Mistral PR.** PR 3 (Mistral) uses the keychain infrastructure introduced here.
**Scope:** Migrate all API keys from plain-text SQLite to Electron `safeStorage` (OS keychain). Cross-platform: macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, Linux libsecret. No legacy fallback — old plain-text keys are deleted on startup; users re-enter keys.
**1b-A. `SecureKeyStore` utility class** (~60 lines)
- New module: `src/main/engine/SecureKeyStore.ts`
- `store(key: string, value: string)` — encrypts with `safeStorage.encryptString()`, stores encrypted Buffer in SQLite settings table (as base64 string under a `__encrypted_` prefixed key)
- `retrieve(key: string): string | null` — reads encrypted base64 from SQLite, decrypts with `safeStorage.decryptString()`
- `remove(key: string)` — deletes the encrypted entry
- `isAvailable(): boolean` — wraps `safeStorage.isEncryptionAvailable()`
- No plain-text fallback — `store()` throws if `safeStorage` is unavailable
**1b-B. Cleanup of old plain-text keys** (~10 lines)
- On app startup (in `getOpenCodeManager()` init): delete plain-text `opencode_api_key` from settings if it exists
- No migration — users re-enter their API key after the update
- Simple and secure: no window where both plain-text and encrypted keys coexist
**1b-C. Update `setApiKey()` / `getApiKey()` in chatHandlers**
- Use `SecureKeyStore.store()` / `SecureKeyStore.retrieve()` instead of direct `getSetting()`/`setSetting()`
- `getApiKey()` returns masked key as before (for UI display)
- `validateApiKey()` unchanged — works with the decrypted key in memory
**1b-D. Tests**
- `SecureKeyStore` unit tests: encrypt/decrypt round-trip, error when `safeStorage` unavailable, cleanup of old plain-text keys
- Mock `safeStorage` in tests (it's an Electron API, not available in Node)
**Estimated scope:** ~120 lines of new code + ~80 lines of tests
### 2. `src/main/engine/ChatEngine.ts` - Settings persistence
**A. Add Mistral key helpers**
- Use existing generic `getSetting()`/`setSetting()` with key `'mistral_api_key'` — no dedicated methods needed, avoids unnecessary boilerplate
- ChatEngine already exposes generic helpers for reading/writing the settings table
- Note: the actual encrypted key storage goes through `SecureKeyStore` (PR 2) — `getSetting()`/`setSetting()` is used only for non-sensitive preferences
**B. Default model is user-driven**
- `getSelectedModel()` defaults to `'claude-sonnet-4-5'`
- When user configures providers in Preferences, they explicitly select their default model — no automatic fallback logic needed
- All surfaces (ChatPanel, AssistantSidebar, ImportAnalysisView) use this preference as default
- If selected model's provider key is later removed:
- `sendMessage()` returns a clear error string: "The selected model requires a {provider} API key. Configure it in Settings."
- `checkReady()` still returns `ready: true` if any other provider is available
- ChatPanel shows an inline error banner (not a toast) with a link/button to open Settings
- i18n key: `chat.providerKeyMissing` — "The model '{model}' requires a {provider} API key. Go to Settings to configure it."
- Add this key to all 5 locale files
- This applies equally to **existing open conversations** whose model belongs to the removed provider — the next `sendMessage()` in those conversations shows the same inline error, not a silent failure
**C. Add per-purpose model preferences**
- `getTitleModel()` / `setTitleModel(modelId)` — settings key `'chat_title_model'`
- `getImageAnalysisModel()` / `setImageAnalysisModel(modelId)` — settings key `'chat_image_analysis_model'`
- Both default to `null` (= use hardcoded defaults per provider)
### 3. `src/main/ipc/chatHandlers.ts` - IPC bridge
**A. Add Mistral-specific handlers**
- `chat:setMistralApiKey` - validate + persist Mistral key, invalidate model cache
- `chat:getMistralApiKey` - return masked key
- `chat:validateMistralApiKey` - test key against Mistral API
**B. Update `chat:getAvailableModels`**
- Include Mistral models when Mistral key is configured
- Return provider info per model
**C. Update `chat:checkReady`**
- Report readiness for both providers independently
**D. Update `getOpenCodeManager()` init**
- Load Mistral API key via `SecureKeyStore.retrieve('mistral_api_key')` on first call (alongside OpenCode key)
- Call `manager.setMistralApiKey()` during init
**E. Add per-purpose model preference handlers**
- `chat:setTitleModel` / `chat:getTitleModel` — persist + load title generation model preference
- `chat:setImageAnalysisModel` / `chat:getImageAnalysisModel` — persist + load image analysis model preference
### 4. `src/main/shared/electronApi.ts` - Type definitions
**A. Extend `ChatModel` interface**
- Add `provider: 'opencode' | 'mistral'` field (already optional, ensure populated)
- Add `vision: boolean` field — indicates whether the model supports image inputs (used to filter the image analysis model dropdown)
**B. Extend `ChatReadyStatus` interface**
- Add `providers?: { opencode: boolean; mistral: boolean }` for per-provider status
**C. Add Mistral IPC methods to `ElectronAPI.chat`**
- `setMistralApiKey(key: string)`
- `getMistralApiKey()`
- `validateMistralApiKey(key: string)`
**D. Add per-purpose model preference methods to `ElectronAPI.chat`**
- `setTitleModel(modelId: string | null)` / `getTitleModel()`
- `setImageAnalysisModel(modelId: string | null)` / `getImageAnalysisModel()`
### 5. `src/renderer/components/SettingsView/SettingsView.tsx` - UI settings
**A. Add Mistral API key section**
- Separate input field for Mistral API key (below OpenCode key)
- Same pattern: masked display, change button, validation on save
**B. Update model selector**
- SettingsView uses a native `<select>` element — group models by provider using `<optgroup>` labels ("OpenCode Zen", "Mistral AI")
- When no API key is configured for any provider, disable the `<select>` dropdown
- When both keys configured, show merged list from both providers; when only one key set, show only that provider's models
- **Note**: `availableModels` state is currently typed as `{id: string; name: string}[]` — must be updated to `ChatModel[]` (which includes `provider` and `vision` fields) so provider grouping and vision filtering work
**C. Add per-purpose model preferences**
- "Title generation model" dropdown — select cheapest/fastest model for auto-titling conversations
- "Image analysis model" dropdown — select a dedicated vision model for media metadata (independent of chat model, e.g. use Devstral for chat but Mistral Large 3 for images); **only show vision-capable models** (filter out models without vision support like Devstral)
- Both show available models from all configured providers, grouped by provider
- Both allow a "Default" option that auto-selects per provider defaults
### 6. `src/renderer/components/ChatPanel/ChatPanel.tsx` - Chat UI
**A. Update model selector in chat**
- ChatPanel uses a custom dropdown (CSS `model-dropdown` with `<button>` elements, not a native `<select>`) — add provider group headers (non-clickable divider labels) within the dropdown to visually separate providers
- Only show models for configured providers; when no keys configured, hide the model selector entirely
- When both providers configured, merge models from both with visual grouping
### 7. `src/renderer/components/AssistantSidebar/` - Assistant UI
**A. No model selector changes needed**
- AssistantSidebar has no model selector and no `checkReady()` call of its own
- It uses whatever default model is set in Preferences (via `getSelectedModel()`)
- No code changes needed here — provider-awareness is handled at the Preferences and engine level
### 8. `src/renderer/components/Sidebar.tsx` - Navigation
**A. Update readiness check**
- Calls `chat.checkReady()` to show/hide chat features
- Must handle multi-provider readiness (show chat if **any** provider is ready)
- Note: Zustand store (`src/renderer/store/appStore.ts`) currently only tracks `chatTokenUsage` — no provider/readiness state is stored there. Provider readiness is ephemeral (fetched on mount via `checkReady()`), so no Zustand changes needed. If future features need reactive provider state, consider adding it then
### 9. `src/renderer/components/ImportAnalysisView/ImportAnalysisView.tsx` - Taxonomy analysis UI
**A. Update model selector**
- Has its own model selector (`ChatModel[]` state + `getAvailableModels()` call) for taxonomy analysis
- Currently renders a flat model list with no provider grouping
- Apply provider grouping matching the component's existing dropdown pattern
- Default to whatever is set in Preferences as default model (via `getSelectedModel()`)
### 9b. Model selector UI approach
**Two different dropdown patterns exist** — keep each surface consistent with its current UX:
- **SettingsView** uses native `<select>` elements → use `<optgroup>` for provider grouping (standard HTML pattern)
- **ChatPanel** uses a custom CSS dropdown (`model-dropdown` with `<button>` elements) → add non-clickable provider group headers as dividers
- **ImportAnalysisView** uses a custom CSS dropdown (`taxonomy-model-dropdown` with `<button>` elements, same pattern as ChatPanel) → add non-clickable provider group headers as dividers
- Shared logic (filtering by vision, adding "Default" option, provider grouping) can be extracted into a utility function or hook rather than a full component, since the rendering pattern differs per surface
- Props for the shared utility: `models: ChatModel[]`, `filterVisionOnly?: boolean`, `includeDefault?: boolean` → returns grouped/filtered model list
### 9c. `src/renderer/navigation/useChatMessageSender.ts` - Shared chat hook
**A. Verify no provider assumptions**
- Used by both ChatPanel and AssistantSidebar to send messages
- Currently delegates to `sendConversationMessage()` from `chatSession.ts` — verify neither has hardcoded provider/model assumptions
- No code changes expected, but must be verified during implementation
### 10. Preload/IPC registration
**A. `src/main/preload.ts`**
- Register new Mistral IPC channels in preload bridge
- All chat IPC channels are bridged 1:1; new methods need entries here
### 11. i18n - All locale files
**A. Add Mistral-specific i18n keys** in all 5 locale files:
- `src/renderer/i18n/locales/en.json`
- `src/renderer/i18n/locales/de.json`
- `src/renderer/i18n/locales/fr.json`
- `src/renderer/i18n/locales/es.json`
- `src/renderer/i18n/locales/it.json`
Keys needed:
- `settings.ai.mistralApiKeyLabel` — "Mistral API Key"
- `settings.ai.mistralApiKeyDescription` — description text
- `settings.ai.mistralApiKeyPlaceholder` — placeholder text
- `settings.ai.titleModelLabel` — "Title generation model"
- `settings.ai.titleModelDescription` — description text
- `settings.ai.imageAnalysisModelLabel` — "Image analysis model"
- `settings.ai.imageAnalysisModelDescription` — description text
- `settings.ai.defaultOption` — "Default" (for per-purpose model selectors)
- `settings.ai.providerGroupOpenCode` — "OpenCode Zen" (provider group label)
- `settings.ai.providerGroupMistral` — "Mistral AI" (provider group label)
- `chat.providerKeyMissing` — "The model '{model}' requires a {provider} API key. Go to Settings to configure it."
- `chat.apiKeyRequiredTitle` — make generic or multi-provider (currently hardcoded to "OpenCode Zen API Key Required")
- `chat.apiKeyRequiredDescription` — make generic or multi-provider (currently hardcoded to OpenCode-specific text)
### 12. MCP Server - `src/main/engine/MCPServer.ts`
- No changes needed — MCP server exposes tools for external AI agents to call; no bDS-side AI runs during MCP requests
### 13. Python API - `src/main/shared/pythonApiContractV1.ts`
- No changes needed — AI/chat features are explicitly not exposed via Python API
### 14. Main-process i18n locales - `src/main/shared/i18n/locales/`
- No changes expected — chat-related strings are renderer-only
- Verify no main-process strings reference "OpenCode" in a way that needs updating for multi-provider support

## Key Differences to Handle
| Aspect | OpenCode/Anthropic | OpenCode/OpenAI-compat | Mistral |
|--------|-------------------|----------------------|---------|
| Base URL | `opencode.ai/zen/v1/messages` | `opencode.ai/zen/v1/chat/completions` | `api.mistral.ai/v1/chat/completions` |
| Auth header | `Bearer ${openCodeKey}` | `Bearer ${openCodeKey}` | `Bearer ${mistralKey}` |
| Request method | `sendAnthropicMessage()` | `sendOpenAIMessage(url, key)` | `sendOpenAIMessage(url, key, opts)` (same method, parameterized) |
| Tool choice | not set | not set | not set (default `"auto"`) |
| Parallel tools | not set | not set | `parallel_tool_calls: false` |

| Title generation | `claude-haiku-4-5` default | N/A | `mistral-small-latest` default |
| Image analysis | `claude-sonnet-4-5` default | N/A | user-selected vision model |
| Model source | fetched from OpenCode API | fetched from OpenCode API | fetched from `api.mistral.ai/v1/models` |

## Verification
1. Run `npm test` — all existing + new tests pass
2. Run `npm run build` — clean build
3. Manual: set Mistral API key in Settings, verify validation
4. Manual: select Mistral Large, send chat message, verify response completes
5. Manual: use `view_image` tool in chat with Mistral model, verify vision works
6. Manual: verify tool calling works (search_posts, list_posts, etc.)
7. Manual: verify OpenCode models still work unchanged
8. Manual: verify Mistral-only mode (no OpenCode key) — chat works, title generates, readiness shows correctly
9. Manual: verify `analyzeMediaImage()` and `analyzeTaxonomy()` with Mistral model
10. Manual: configure title generation model in Settings, verify titles use selected model
11. Manual: configure image analysis model in Settings, verify media analysis uses selected model (independent of chat model)
12. Manual: verify SSE streaming — text appears token-by-token (not as a single block after long wait)
13. Manual: verify abort during streaming — text stops immediately, no wasted response
14. Manual: verify keychain storage — API keys are encrypted, not stored as plain text in SQLite
15. Manual: verify old plain-text key is deleted on first launch after update (user re-enters key)
## Resolved Decisions
1. **`analyzeMediaImage()`** — Configurable via Settings preference; user selects a dedicated vision model independent of chat model; dropdown only shows vision-capable models
2. **`generateConversationTitle()`** — Configurable via Settings preference; user selects cheapest/fastest model for auto-titling
3. **`checkReady()`** — Returns true if any provider key is set; reports per-provider availability
4. **Default model** — User-driven; set explicitly in Preferences when configuring provider + model; all surfaces (ChatPanel, AssistantSidebar, ImportAnalysisView) use this preference
5. **Vision in OpenAI path** — Fix `image_url` conversion for all OpenAI-compatible providers (not just Mistral)
6. **MCP server** — N/A; only exposes tools, no bDS-side AI runs
7. **Python API** — N/A; AI/chat not exposed via Python API
8. **Model dropdown grouping** — SettingsView uses native `<select>` with `<optgroup>`; ChatPanel uses custom CSS dropdown with provider header dividers; shared utility extracts grouping/filtering logic while each surface keeps its own rendering pattern
9. **SSE streaming** — Convert all chat HTTP calls to `stream: true` + SSE parsing; keep one-shot requests (title, image analysis, taxonomy, validation) non-streaming. Renderer needs zero changes — existing `onDelta` pipeline already supports incremental tokens. Token usage requires `stream_options: { include_usage: true }` for OpenAI/Mistral format; Anthropic provides usage in `message_start` + `message_delta` events
10. **OpenAI tool-call history** — Within a single `sendMessage()` call, tool results are tracked correctly across rounds. The fix is about persisting `tool` role messages to DB-backed conversation history so cross-session resume works
11. **ImportAnalysisView** — Has its own model selector; apply same provider grouping; default to Preferences model
12. **AssistantSidebar** — No model selector of its own; uses Preferences default model; no code changes needed
13. **`tool_choice`** — Do NOT set `tool_choice: "any"` for Mistral (this forces tool use every turn). Omit it entirely; Mistral defaults to `"auto"`, same as OpenCode. Set `parallel_tool_calls: false` explicitly since our tool executor is sequential
14. **No separate `sendMistralRequest()`** — Parameterize `sendOpenAIMessage()` with URL/key/options instead of creating a near-duplicate method; Mistral uses the identical OpenAI-compatible format
15. **`detectProvider()` prefixes** — Cover all Mistral model families: `mistral`, `ministral`, `devstral`, `codestral`, `pixtral`
16. **`formatModelName()` / `UPPERCASE_PREFIXES`** — No changes needed; all 5 Mistral models are in `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES`; auto-format fallback handles future unknown models correctly
17. **Context budgets** — Stored in `MODEL_CONTEXT_BUDGETS` map; passed explicitly to `truncateToTokenBudget()` per provider path; OpenCode defaults to 150k, Mistral per-model (see Target Models table)
18. **Error UX for removed provider key** — Inline error banner in ChatPanel (not a toast) with link to Settings; `sendMessage()` returns descriptive error string; `checkReady()` stays true if any provider available
19. **Zustand store** — No changes needed; provider readiness is ephemeral (fetched on mount), token usage tracking is already in store and is provider-agnostic
20. **`validateMistralApiKey()`** — Calls `GET https://api.mistral.ai/v1/models` with Bearer token; checks for HTTP 200 + non-empty `data` array; Mistral returns `{ data: [{ id, object, created, owned_by }] }` format
21. **Model cache merge**`getAvailableModels()` fetches from both provider endpoints when both keys are set, merges into a single list with `provider` field on each model; when only one key is set, only that provider's models are returned; when no keys are set, returns empty list and UI disables the model dropdown
22. **Provider-aware API key guards**`analyzeTaxonomy()` and `analyzeMediaImage()` have `if (!this.apiKey)` early-return guards that must become provider-aware (check the relevant provider's key based on the selected model)
23. **`useChatMessageSender` hook** — Shared by ChatPanel and AssistantSidebar; verify no provider assumptions exist (expected: no changes needed)
24. **ChatEngine generic settings** — Use existing `getSetting()`/`setSetting()` for non-sensitive preferences; API keys use `SecureKeyStore` (keychain)
25. **SettingsView model state type** — Currently `{id: string; name: string}[]`; must be updated to `ChatModel[]` to include `provider` and `vision` fields for grouping and filtering
26. **PR structure** — Split into 3 PRs: PR 1 (SSE streaming), PR 2 (keychain migration), PR 3 (Mistral integration). Reduces risk and allows independent review/testing
27. **Model IDs** — Use "latest" aliases (`mistral-large-latest`, etc.) not dated IDs. Models auto-update when Mistral releases new versions; `getAvailableModels()` fetches actual model list from API
28. **API key storage** — All API keys (OpenCode + Mistral) stored via Electron `safeStorage` (OS keychain). Cross-platform: macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, Linux libsecret. No plain-text fallback — old plain-text keys are deleted on startup; users re-enter keys after upgrade
29. **Model fallback filtering**`getAvailableModels()` fallback list (from `MODEL_DISPLAY_NAMES`) filtered by available provider keys. Only shows models whose provider has a configured key, even in fallback mode
30. **`requestProvider` routing** — The `requestProvider` lambda in `sendMessage()` must pass provider-specific URL/key/options to `sendOpenAIMessage()` via `getProviderConfig()` helper
31. **Vision capability map**`MODEL_CAPABILITIES` static map provides `vision: boolean` per model ID, since neither Mistral nor OpenCode APIs expose this field. OpenCode models also need vision flags for the image analysis dropdown filter
32. **`ModelInfo` / `ChatModel` unification** — Remove internal `ModelInfo` type; use `ChatModel` (with `vision` field) everywhere: engine, IPC, renderer
33. **Retry logic** — All providers get retry-with-exponential-backoff for transient HTTP errors (429, 502, 503). Max 3 retries, ~1s/2s/4s with jitter. Respects `Retry-After` header for 429. Implemented in PR 1 as part of the HTTP infrastructure
34. **`validateApiKey()` model filtering** — Filter returned models by `isProviderKeySet()` to avoid showing Mistral models on OpenCode key validation (and vice versa). Same pattern as `getAvailableModels()` fallback filtering
35. **ImportAnalysisView dropdown** — Uses custom CSS dropdown with `<button>` elements (same pattern as ChatPanel, not native `<select>`); apply provider group headers as dividers
36. **Removed-key error for existing conversations** — Existing open conversations whose model belongs to a removed provider show the same inline error banner on next `sendMessage()`, not a silent failure
