Routing behavior

Trigger conditions

  • The request specifically concerns output compression.

Anti-trigger conditions

  • Every byte must reach the provider unchanged
  • Cannot run a local proxy or inspect its request-routing behavior

Inputs & outputs

Required inputs

A concrete, bounded request plus the files, data, account, or project context explicitly required by this component.

Produced outputs

The component's documented artifact, answer, command result, graph record, media deliverable, or external action. Review it before relying on it.

Dependencies & services

Dependencies

Node.js; optional Chrome; Go/pnpm only when building from source

Required tools

Node.js 18+ plus downloaded native binaries; Go and pnpm for source builds

Required services

Selected LLM provider; Chrome only for browse mode

Compatibility

Platforms

macOS, Linux, Windows

Agents / IDEs

CLI, local proxy, MCP server, Agent Skill, local report UI

Limitations

  • Proxy mode changes request content and therefore requires careful evaluation
  • Savings depend on payload shape
  • Provider and agent compatibility can change

Security notes

Proxy mode handles provider requests and authentication paths. Review configuration, bind locally, protect the recovery store, and test with non-sensitive traffic first.
