droid-model-setup skillB
droid-model-setup is agent-read markdown (skill) from nikships/droidproxy: Configure any third-party model as a custom model in Factory Droid (~/.factory/settings.json): resolve specs (context window, max output tokens, reasoning efforts), write a safe config entry, set session defaults, and prove the wiring with a live droid exec run and, when needed, an exact request-body capture. Fully open-ended: use whenever the user asks to "set X, Y, Z models up for a Droid", add/register a custom model, fix a model that ignores its reasoning setting, raise max tokens or context.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Droid model setup
Turns any OpenAI-compatible (and most Anthropic-compatible) endpoint into a first-class Droid
model. Covers spec lookup, safe writes to `~/.factory/settings.json`, session-default effort
wiring, and empirical verification. Knowledge below was verified Aug 2026 against the real binary
by capturing Droid's outgoing request bodies.
## Workflow for "set X, Y, Z models up for a Droid"
1. **Resolve specs per model** (ask only what cannot be looked up; be agentic otherwise).
- OpenRouter-hosted model: fetch `https://openrouter.ai/<vendor>/<slug>` — gives context
window, max completion tokens, supported reasoning efforts, pricing.
- Other providers: check their docs/API reference for context length and output cap.
- Note whether thinking/reasoning can be toggled and via which parameter.
2. **Determine endpoint + credentials.**
- Same provider already registered in settings? Reuse its key with the script's
`--reuse-key-from <existing-model-id>` (reads the real stored bytes; the asterisks you see in
file reads are display-only redaction, and Python sees through them).

How to install
mdr add nikships/droidproxy/droid-model-setup@git:20260826.1f70eafmdr add nikships/droidproxy/droid-model-setup@sha256:14e22be7f35fe3d6Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
