Presets

A preset is a named snapshot of the five provider-related settings: provider, model, API key, API URL, and API headers. Presets make it cheap to switch between setups (say, a fast local Ollama model and a cloud model for tricky diffs) and they feed the fallback mechanism, which walks your presets when the primary provider fails.

Manage presets from the cgen config interactive menu, or directly with cgen preset:

• Save current as preset: saves the current provider/model/key/url/headers as a named preset (offered only when no identical preset exists)
• Load a preset: applies a saved preset to the current config session; if you then modify a loaded preset's fields, cgen offers to update the preset on save
• Manage presets: create, rename, duplicate, delete, export, and import presets
• Export/Import: export presets as TOML (optionally redacting API keys) for sharing or backup

Presets are stored in {config_dir}/cgen/presets.toml alongside the global config. Deduplication uses (provider, model, api_key, api_url) as the key.
