Clash for AI Docs Local Desktop Gateway
Clash for AI gives coding tools, chat clients, and SDK workflows one stable local endpoint. The desktop app manages upstream providers, health checks, and request logs in one place.
The first version of the docs is intentionally focused: setup, provider compatibility, practical integration, and operational FAQs. That gives you a clean structure for expanding into screenshots, walkthroughs, and troubleshooting later.
