All Amp management endpoints (e.g., /api/user, /threads) are now protected by the standard API key authentication middleware. This ensures that all management operations require a valid API key, significantly improving security.
As a result of this change:
- The `restrict-management-to-localhost` setting now defaults to `false`. API key authentication provides a stronger and more flexible security control than IP-based restrictions, improving usability in containerized environments.
- The reverse proxy logic now strips the client's `Authorization` header after authenticating the initial request. It then injects the configured `upstream-api-key` for the request to the upstream Amp service.
BREAKING CHANGE: Amp management endpoints now require a valid API key for authentication. Requests without a valid API key in the `Authorization` header will be rejected with a 401 Unauthorized error.
Amp CLI sends 'context-1m-2025-08-07' in Anthropic-Beta header which
requires a special 1M context window subscription. After upstream rebase
to v6.3.7 (commit 38cfbac), CLIProxyAPI now respects client-provided
Anthropic-Beta headers instead of always using defaults.
When users configure local OAuth providers (Claude, etc), requests bypass
the ampcode.com proxy and use their own API subscriptions. These personal
subscriptions typically don't include the 1M context beta feature, causing
'long context beta not available' errors.
Changes:
- Add filterBetaFeatures() helper to strip specific beta features
- Filter context-1m-2025-08-07 in fallback handler when using local providers
- Preserve full headers when proxying to ampcode.com (paid users get all features)
- Add 7 test cases covering all edge cases
This fix is isolated to the Amp module and only affects the local provider
path. Users proxying through ampcode.com are unaffected and receive full
1M context support as part of their paid service.
Add full Amp CLI support to enable routing AI model requests through the proxy
while maintaining Amp-specific features like thread management, user info, and
telemetry. Includes complete documentation and pull bot configuration.
Features:
- Modular architecture with RouteModule interface for clean integration
- Reverse proxy for Amp management routes (thread/user/meta/ads/telemetry)
- Provider-specific route aliases (/api/provider/{provider}/*)
- Secret management with precedence: config > env > file
- 5-minute secret caching to reduce file I/O
- Automatic gzip decompression for responses
- Proper connection cleanup to prevent leaks
- Localhost-only restriction for management routes (configurable)
- CORS protection for management endpoints
Documentation:
- Complete setup guide (USING_WITH_FACTORY_AND_AMP.md)
- OAuth setup for OpenAI (ChatGPT Plus/Pro) and Anthropic (Claude Pro/Max)
- Factory CLI config examples with all model variants
- Amp CLI/IDE configuration examples
- tmux setup for remote server deployment
- Screenshots and diagrams
Configuration:
- Pull bot disabled for this repo (manual rebase workflow)
- Config fields: AmpUpstreamURL, AmpUpstreamAPIKey, AmpRestrictManagementToLocalhost
- Compatible with upstream DisableCooling and other features
Technical details:
- internal/api/modules/amp/: Complete Amp routing module
- sdk/api/httpx/: HTTP utilities for gzip/transport
- 94.6% test coverage with 34 comprehensive test cases
- Clean integration minimizes merge conflict risk
Security:
- Management routes restricted to localhost by default
- Configurable via amp-restrict-management-to-localhost
- Prevents drive-by browser attacks on user data
This provides a production-ready foundation for Amp CLI integration while
maintaining clean separation from upstream code for easy rebasing.
