Living with it
Settings
Every page of settings, and what each one changes.
Three groups. App is Draggy as a whole,
Chat and Code are each side's own.
/settings opens the side you are on.
App
| Page | Holds |
|---|---|
| General | Theme, text size, twelve interface languages, and the speed and memory line under each reply |
| Models | Every installed model, downloads, unload, the context window, and the compaction limit |
| Web search | Automatic, Brave, DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Brave API or SearXNG |
| Statistics | Replies, tokens, speed by model, tool usage and time per task |
| Data | What is stored, the log folder, and clearing history |
| Extensions | Servers, remote servers and skills |
| Local API | An OpenAI-compatible API on this computer, off by default |
| Updates | Automatic updates, the update channel, and installing by hand |
Chat and Code
Each has Preferences: its model, thinking mode, web access and
custom instructions. Chat adds Talk and
Library. Code adds Projects, where each
project keeps its permission mode, its AGENTS.md and everything you
have always-allowed.
Short, concrete instructions beat long aspirational ones, particularly on a small model. "Answer in British English" survives; "be thorough and insightful" does not.
The local API
On 127.0.0.1:11500, loopback only, Bearer key required, and
requests carrying an Origin header are refused outright so a web
page cannot reach it. It serves /v1/models and
/v1/chat/completions, which is enough for Continue, Aider or
anything else that takes a custom base URL.
