+# GitLab Duo guide
+
+CLIProxyAPI can now use GitLab Duo as a first-class provider instead of treating it as a plain text wrapper.
+
+It supports:
+
+- OAuth login
+- personal access token login
+- automatic refresh of GitLab `direct_access` metadata
+- dynamic model discovery from GitLab metadata
+- native GitLab AI gateway routing for Anthropic and OpenAI/Codex managed models
+- Claude-compatible and OpenAI-compatible downstream APIs
+
+## What this means
+
+If GitLab Duo returns an Anthropic-managed model, CLIProxyAPI routes requests through the GitLab AI gateway Anthropic proxy and uses the existing Claude executor path.
+
+If GitLab Duo returns an OpenAI-managed model, CLIProxyAPI routes requests through the GitLab AI gateway OpenAI proxy and uses the existing Codex/OpenAI executor path.
+
+That gives GitLab Duo much closer runtime behavior to the built-in `codex` provider:
+
+- Claude-compatible clients can use GitLab Duo models through `/v1/messages`
+- OpenAI-compatible clients can use GitLab Duo models through `/v1/chat/completions`
+- OpenAI Responses clients can use GitLab Duo models through `/v1/responses`
+
+The model list is not hardcoded. CLIProxyAPI reads the current model metadata from GitLab `direct_access` and registers:
+
+- a stable alias: `gitlab-duo`
+- any discovered managed model names, such as `claude-sonnet-4-5` or `gpt-5-codex`
+
+## Login
+
+OAuth login:
+
+```bash
+./CLIProxyAPI -gitlab-login
+```
+
+PAT login:
+
+```bash
+./CLIProxyAPI -gitlab-token-login
+```
+
+You can also provide inputs through environment variables:
+
+```bash
+export GITLAB_BASE_URL=https://gitlab.com
+export GITLAB_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
+export GITLAB_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
+export GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=glpat-...
+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- OAuth requires a GitLab OAuth application.
+- PAT login requires a personal access token that can call the GitLab APIs used by Duo. In practice, `api` scope is the safe baseline.
+- Self-managed GitLab instances are supported through `GITLAB_BASE_URL`.
+
+## Using the models
+
+After login, start CLIProxyAPI normally and point your client at the local proxy.
+
+You can select:
+
+- `gitlab-duo` to use the current Duo-managed model for that account
+- the discovered provider model name if you want to pin it explicitly
+
+Examples:
+
+```bash
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/v1/models
+```
+
+```bash
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/v1/chat/completions \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "gitlab-duo",
+    "messages": [
+      {"role": "user", "content": "Write a Go HTTP middleware for request IDs."}
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+If the GitLab account is currently mapped to an Anthropic model, Claude-compatible clients can use the same account through the Claude handler path. If the account is currently mapped to an OpenAI/Codex model, OpenAI-compatible clients can use `/v1/chat/completions` or `/v1/responses`.
+
+## How model freshness works
+
+CLIProxyAPI does not ship a fixed GitLab Duo model catalog.
+
+Instead, it refreshes GitLab `direct_access` metadata and uses the returned `model_details` and any discovered model list entries to keep the local registry aligned with the current GitLab-managed model assignment.
+
+This matches GitLab's current public contract better than hardcoding model names.
+
+## Current scope
+
+The GitLab Duo provider now has:
+
+- OAuth and PAT auth flows
+- runtime refresh of Duo gateway credentials
+- native Anthropic gateway routing
+- native OpenAI/Codex gateway routing
+- handler-level smoke tests for Claude-compatible and OpenAI-compatible paths
+
+Still out of scope today:
+
+- websocket or session-specific parity beyond the current HTTP APIs
+- GitLab-specific IDE features that are not exposed through the public gateway contract

+# GitLab Duo 使用说明
+
+CLIProxyAPI 现在可以把 GitLab Duo 当作一等 Provider 来使用，而不是仅仅把它当成简单的文本补全封装。
+
+当前支持：
+
+- OAuth 登录
+- personal access token 登录
+- 自动刷新 GitLab `direct_access` 元数据
+- 根据 GitLab 返回的元数据动态发现模型
+- 针对 Anthropic 和 OpenAI/Codex 托管模型的 GitLab AI gateway 原生路由
+- Claude 兼容与 OpenAI 兼容下游 API
+
+## 这意味着什么
+
+如果 GitLab Duo 返回的是 Anthropic 托管模型，CLIProxyAPI 会通过 GitLab AI gateway 的 Anthropic 代理转发，并复用现有的 Claude executor 路径。
+
+如果 GitLab Duo 返回的是 OpenAI 托管模型，CLIProxyAPI 会通过 GitLab AI gateway 的 OpenAI 代理转发，并复用现有的 Codex/OpenAI executor 路径。
+
+这让 GitLab Duo 的运行时行为更接近内置的 `codex` Provider：
+
+- Claude 兼容客户端可以通过 `/v1/messages` 使用 GitLab Duo 模型
+- OpenAI 兼容客户端可以通过 `/v1/chat/completions` 使用 GitLab Duo 模型
+- OpenAI Responses 客户端可以通过 `/v1/responses` 使用 GitLab Duo 模型
+
+模型列表不是硬编码的。CLIProxyAPI 会从 GitLab `direct_access` 中读取当前模型元数据，并注册：
+
+- 一个稳定别名：`gitlab-duo`
+- GitLab 当前发现到的托管模型名，例如 `claude-sonnet-4-5` 或 `gpt-5-codex`
+
+## 登录
+
+OAuth 登录：
+
+```bash
+./CLIProxyAPI -gitlab-login
+```
+
+PAT 登录：
+
+```bash
+./CLIProxyAPI -gitlab-token-login
+```
+
+也可以通过环境变量提供输入：
+
+```bash
+export GITLAB_BASE_URL=https://gitlab.com
+export GITLAB_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
+export GITLAB_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
+export GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=glpat-...
+```
+
+说明：
+
+- OAuth 方式需要一个 GitLab OAuth application。
+- PAT 登录需要一个能够调用 GitLab Duo 相关 API 的 personal access token。实践上，`api` scope 是最稳妥的基线。
+- 自建 GitLab 实例可以通过 `GITLAB_BASE_URL` 接入。
+
+## 如何使用模型
+
+登录完成后，正常启动 CLIProxyAPI，并让客户端连接到本地代理。
+
+你可以选择：
+
+- `gitlab-duo`，始终使用该账号当前的 Duo 托管模型
+- GitLab 当前发现到的 provider 模型名，如果你想显式固定模型
+
+示例：
+
+```bash
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/v1/models
+```
+
+```bash
+curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/v1/chat/completions \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "gitlab-duo",
+    "messages": [
+      {"role": "user", "content": "Write a Go HTTP middleware for request IDs."}
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+如果该 GitLab 账号当前绑定的是 Anthropic 模型，Claude 兼容客户端可以通过 Claude handler 路径直接使用它。如果当前绑定的是 OpenAI/Codex 模型，OpenAI 兼容客户端可以通过 `/v1/chat/completions` 或 `/v1/responses` 使用它。
+
+## 模型如何保持最新
+
+CLIProxyAPI 不内置固定的 GitLab Duo 模型清单。
+
+它会刷新 GitLab `direct_access` 元数据，并使用返回的 `model_details` 以及可能存在的模型列表字段，让本地 registry 尽量与 GitLab 当前分配的托管模型保持一致。
+
+这比硬编码模型名更符合 GitLab 当前公开 API 的实际契约。
+
+## 当前覆盖范围
+
+GitLab Duo Provider 目前已经具备：
+
+- OAuth 和 PAT 登录流程
+- Duo gateway 凭据的运行时刷新
+- Anthropic gateway 原生路由
+- OpenAI/Codex gateway 原生路由
+- Claude 兼容和 OpenAI 兼容路径的 handler 级 smoke 测试
+
+当前仍未覆盖：
+
+- websocket 或 session 级别的完全对齐
+- GitLab 公开 gateway 契约之外的 IDE 专有能力

+# Plan: GitLab Duo Codex Parity
+
+**Generated**: 2026-03-10
+**Estimated Complexity**: High
+
+## Overview
+Bring GitLab Duo support from the current "auth + basic executor" stage to the same practical level as `codex` inside `CLIProxyAPI`: a user logs in once, points external clients such as Claude Code at `CLIProxyAPI`, selects GitLab Duo-backed models, and gets stable streaming, multi-turn behavior, tool calling compatibility, and predictable model routing without manual provider-specific workarounds.
+
+The core architectural shift is to stop treating GitLab Duo as only two REST wrappers (`/api/v4/chat/completions` and `/api/v4/code_suggestions/completions`) and instead use GitLab's `direct_access` contract as the primary runtime entrypoint wherever possible. Official GitLab docs confirm that `direct_access` returns AI gateway connection details, headers, token, and expiry; that contract is the closest path to codex-like provider behavior.
+
+## Prerequisites
+- Official GitLab Duo API references confirmed during implementation:
+  - `POST /api/v4/code_suggestions/direct_access`
+  - `POST /api/v4/code_suggestions/completions`
+  - `POST /api/v4/chat/completions`
+- Access to at least one real GitLab Duo account for manual verification.
+- One downstream client target for acceptance testing:
+  - Claude Code against Claude-compatible endpoint
+  - OpenAI-compatible client against `/v1/chat/completions` and `/v1/responses`
+- Existing PR branch as starting point:
+  - `feat/gitlab-duo-auth`
+  - PR [#2028](https://github.com/router-for-me/CLIProxyAPI/pull/2028)
+
+## Definition Of Done
+- GitLab Duo models can be used via `CLIProxyAPI` from the same client surfaces that already work for `codex`.
+- Upstream streaming is real passthrough or faithful chunked forwarding, not synthetic whole-response replay.
+- Tool/function calling survives translation layers without dropping fields or corrupting names.
+- Multi-turn and session semantics are stable across `chat/completions`, `responses`, and Claude-compatible routes.
+- Model exposure stays current from GitLab metadata or gateway discovery without hardcoded stale model tables.
+- `go test ./...` stays green and at least one real manual end-to-end client flow is documented.
+
+## Sprint 1: Contract And Gap Closure
+**Goal**: Replace assumptions with a hard compatibility contract between current `codex` behavior and what GitLab Duo can actually support.
+
+**Demo/Validation**:
+- Written matrix showing `codex` features vs current GitLab Duo behavior.
+- One checked-in developer note or test fixture for real GitLab Duo payload examples.
+
+### Task 1.1: Freeze Codex Parity Checklist
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/codex_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/codex_executor.go), [internal/runtime/executor/codex_websockets_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/codex_websockets_executor.go), [sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_handlers.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_handlers.go), [sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_websocket.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_websocket.go)
+- **Description**: Produce a concrete feature matrix for `codex`: HTTP execute, SSE execute, `/v1/responses`, websocket downstream path, tool calling, request IDs, session close semantics, and model registration behavior.
+- **Dependencies**: None
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - A checklist exists in repo docs or issue notes.
+  - Each capability is marked `required`, `optional`, or `not possible` for GitLab Duo.
+- **Validation**:
+  - Review against current `codex` code paths.
+
+### Task 1.2: Lock GitLab Duo Runtime Contract
+- **Location**: [internal/auth/gitlab/gitlab.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/auth/gitlab/gitlab.go), [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go)
+- **Description**: Validate the exact upstream contract we can rely on:
+  - `direct_access` fields and refresh cadence
+  - whether AI gateway path is usable directly
+  - when `chat/completions` is available vs when fallback is required
+  - what streaming shape is returned by `code_suggestions/completions?stream=true`
+- **Dependencies**: Task 1.1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - GitLab transport decision is explicit: `gateway-first`, `REST-first`, or `hybrid`.
+  - Unknown areas are isolated behind feature flags, not spread across executor logic.
+- **Validation**:
+  - Official docs + captured real responses from a Duo account.
+
+### Task 1.3: Define Client-Facing Compatibility Targets
+- **Location**: [README.md](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/README.md), [gitlab-duo-codex-parity-plan.md](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/gitlab-duo-codex-parity-plan.md)
+- **Description**: Define exactly which external flows must work to call GitLab Duo support "like codex".
+- **Dependencies**: Task 1.2
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - Required surfaces are listed:
+    - Claude-compatible route
+    - OpenAI `chat/completions`
+    - OpenAI `responses`
+    - optional downstream websocket path
+  - Non-goals are explicit if GitLab upstream cannot support them.
+- **Validation**:
+  - Maintainer review of stated scope.
+
+## Sprint 2: Primary Transport Parity
+**Goal**: Move GitLab Duo execution onto a transport that supports codex-like runtime behavior.
+
+**Demo/Validation**:
+- A GitLab Duo model works over real streaming through `/v1/chat/completions`.
+- No synthetic "collect full body then fake stream" path remains on the primary flow.
+
+### Task 2.1: Refactor GitLab Executor Into Strategy Layers
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go)
+- **Description**: Split current executor into explicit strategies:
+  - auth refresh/direct access refresh
+  - gateway transport
+  - GitLab REST fallback transport
+  - downstream translation helpers
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - Executor no longer mixes discovery, refresh, fallback selection, and response synthesis in one path.
+  - Transport choice is testable in isolation.
+- **Validation**:
+  - Unit tests for strategy selection and fallback boundaries.
+
+### Task 2.2: Implement Real Streaming Path
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go), [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor_test.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor_test.go)
+- **Description**: Replace synthetic streaming with true upstream incremental forwarding:
+  - use gateway stream if available
+  - otherwise consume GitLab Code Suggestions streaming response and map chunks incrementally
+- **Dependencies**: Task 2.1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - `ExecuteStream` emits chunks before upstream completion.
+  - error handling preserves status and early failure semantics.
+- **Validation**:
+  - tests with chunked upstream server
+  - manual curl check against `/v1/chat/completions` with `stream=true`
+
+### Task 2.3: Preserve Upstream Auth And Headers Correctly
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go), [internal/auth/gitlab/gitlab.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/auth/gitlab/gitlab.go)
+- **Description**: Use `direct_access` connection details as first-class transport state:
+  - gateway token
+  - expiry
+  - mandatory forwarded headers
+  - model metadata
+- **Dependencies**: Task 2.1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - executor stops ignoring gateway headers/token when transport requires them
+  - refresh logic never over-fetches `direct_access`
+- **Validation**:
+  - tests verifying propagated headers and refresh interval behavior
+
+## Sprint 3: Request/Response Semantics Parity
+**Goal**: Make GitLab Duo behave correctly under the same request shapes that current `codex` consumers send.
+
+**Demo/Validation**:
+- OpenAI and Claude-compatible clients can do non-streaming and streaming conversations without losing structure.
+
+### Task 3.1: Normalize Multi-Turn Message Mapping
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go), [sdk/translator](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/translator)
+- **Description**: Replace the current "flatten prompt into one instruction" behavior with stable multi-turn mapping:
+  - preserve system context
+  - preserve user/assistant ordering
+  - maintain bounded context truncation
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 2
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - multi-turn requests are not collapsed into a lossy single string unless fallback mode explicitly requires it
+  - truncation policy is deterministic and tested
+- **Validation**:
+  - golden tests for request mapping
+
+### Task 3.2: Tool Calling Compatibility Layer
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go), [sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_handlers.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_handlers.go)
+- **Description**: Decide and implement one of two paths:
+  - native pass-through if GitLab gateway supports tool/function structures
+  - strict downgrade path with explicit unsupported errors instead of silent field loss
+- **Dependencies**: Task 3.1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - tool-related fields are either preserved correctly or rejected explicitly
+  - no silent corruption of tool names, tool calls, or tool results
+- **Validation**:
+  - table-driven tests for tool payloads
+  - one manual client scenario using tools
+
+### Task 3.3: Token Counting And Usage Reporting Fidelity
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go), [internal/runtime/executor/usage_helpers.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/usage_helpers.go)
+- **Description**: Improve token/usage reporting so GitLab models behave like first-class providers in logs and scheduling.
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 2
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - `CountTokens` uses the closest supported estimation path
+  - usage logging distinguishes prompt vs completion when possible
+- **Validation**:
+  - unit tests for token estimation outputs
+
+## Sprint 4: Responses And Session Parity
+**Goal**: Reach codex-level support for OpenAI Responses clients and long-lived sessions where GitLab upstream permits it.
+
+**Demo/Validation**:
+- `/v1/responses` works with GitLab Duo in a realistic client flow.
+- If websocket parity is not possible, the code explicitly declines it and keeps HTTP paths stable.
+
+### Task 4.1: Make GitLab Compatible With `/v1/responses`
+- **Location**: [sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_handlers.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_handlers.go), [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go)
+- **Description**: Ensure GitLab transport can safely back the Responses API path, including compact responses if applicable.
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 3
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - GitLab Duo can be selected behind `/v1/responses`
+  - response IDs and follow-up semantics are defined
+- **Validation**:
+  - handler tests analogous to codex/openai responses tests
+
+### Task 4.2: Evaluate Downstream Websocket Parity
+- **Location**: [sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_websocket.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/api/handlers/openai/openai_responses_websocket.go), [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go)
+- **Description**: Decide whether GitLab Duo can support downstream websocket sessions like codex:
+  - if yes, add session-aware execution path
+  - if no, mark GitLab auth as websocket-ineligible and keep HTTP routes first-class
+- **Dependencies**: Task 4.1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - websocket behavior is explicit, not accidental
+  - no route claims websocket support when the upstream cannot honor it
+- **Validation**:
+  - websocket handler tests or explicit capability tests
+
+### Task 4.3: Add Session Cleanup And Failure Recovery Semantics
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor.go), [sdk/cliproxy/auth/conductor.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/cliproxy/auth/conductor.go)
+- **Description**: Add codex-like session cleanup, retry boundaries, and model suspension/resume behavior for GitLab failures and quota events.
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 2
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - auth/model cooldown behavior is predictable on GitLab 4xx/5xx/quota responses
+  - executor cleans up per-session resources if any are introduced
+- **Validation**:
+  - tests for quota and retry behavior
+
+## Sprint 5: Client UX, Model UX, And Manual E2E
+**Goal**: Make GitLab Duo feel like a normal built-in provider to operators and downstream clients.
+
+**Demo/Validation**:
+- A documented setup exists for "login once, point Claude Code at CLIProxyAPI, use GitLab Duo-backed model".
+
+### Task 5.1: Model Alias And Provider UX Cleanup
+- **Location**: [sdk/cliproxy/service.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/cliproxy/service.go), [README.md](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/README.md)
+- **Description**: Normalize what users see:
+  - stable alias such as `gitlab-duo`
+  - discovered upstream model names
+  - optional prefix behavior
+  - account labels that clearly distinguish OAuth vs PAT
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 3
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - users can select a stable GitLab alias even when upstream model changes
+  - dynamic model discovery does not cause confusing model churn
+- **Validation**:
+  - registry tests and manual `/v1/models` inspection

+### Task 5.2: Add Real End-To-End Acceptance Tests
+- **Location**: [internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor_test.go](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/internal/runtime/executor/gitlab_executor_test.go), [sdk/api/handlers/openai](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/sdk/api/handlers/openai)
+- **Description**: Add higher-level tests covering the actual proxy surfaces:
+  - OpenAI `chat/completions`
+  - OpenAI `responses`
+  - Claude-compatible request path if GitLab is routed there
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 4
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - tests fail if streaming regresses into synthetic buffering again
+  - tests cover at least one tool-related request and one multi-turn request
+- **Validation**:
+  - `go test ./...`
+
+### Task 5.3: Publish Operator Documentation
+- **Location**: [README.md](/home/luxvtz/projects/cliproxyapi/CLIProxyAPI/README.md)
+- **Description**: Document:
+  - OAuth setup requirements
+  - PAT requirements
+  - current capability matrix
+  - known limitations if websocket/tool parity is partial
+- **Dependencies**: Sprint 5.1
+- **Acceptance Criteria**:
+  - setup instructions are enough for a new user to reproduce the GitLab Duo flow
+  - limitations are explicit
+- **Validation**:
+  - dry-run docs review from a clean environment
+
+## Testing Strategy
+- Keep `go test ./...` green after every committable task.
+- Add table-driven tests first for request mapping, refresh behavior, and dynamic model registration.
+- Add transport tests with `httptest.Server` for:
+  - real chunked streaming
+  - header propagation from `direct_access`
+  - upstream fallback rules
+- Add at least one manual acceptance checklist:
+  - login via OAuth
+  - login via PAT
+  - list models
+  - run one streaming prompt via OpenAI route
+  - run one prompt from the target downstream client
+
+## Potential Risks & Gotchas
+- GitLab public docs expose `direct_access`, but do not fully document every possible AI gateway path. We should isolate any empirically discovered gateway assumptions behind one transport layer and feature flags.
+- `chat/completions` availability differs by GitLab offering and version. The executor must not assume it always exists.
+- Code Suggestions is completion-oriented; lossy mapping from rich chat/tool payloads will make GitLab Duo feel worse than codex unless explicitly handled.
+- Synthetic streaming is not good enough for codex parity and will cause regressions in interactive clients.
+- Dynamic model discovery can create unstable UX if the stable alias and discovered model IDs are not separated cleanly.
+- PAT auth may validate successfully while still lacking effective Duo permissions. Error reporting must surface this explicitly.
+
+## Rollback Plan
+- Keep the current basic GitLab executor behind a fallback mode until the new transport path is stable.
+- If parity work destabilizes existing providers, revert only GitLab-specific executor changes and leave auth support intact.
+- Preserve the stable `gitlab-duo` alias so rollback does not break client configuration.
