## Create API Key

```

- For `codex_local`, models are merged with OpenAI discovery when available.
- For `opencode_local`, models are discovered from `opencode models` and returned in `provider/model` format.
- `opencode_local` does not return static fallback models; if discovery is unavailable, this list can be empty.

POST /api/agents/{agentId}/config-revisions/{revisionId}/rollback
```

View and roll back agent configuration changes.
