The name change: TheYgent is now Ertir¶
Ertir is the new name of TheYgent. It is the same project: the same code, the same maintainer and the same license (Sustainable Use License). Version 2.0.0 is the first release under the new name.
What changed¶
- The name. The app, these docs and the website say Ertir.
- The website and docs addresses. The website is ertir.dev and the docs are at docs.ertir.dev. Links to
theygent.aianddocs.theygent.airedirect to the matching page on the new addresses. - The GitHub repository. It is github.com/al2m4n/ertir. GitHub redirects the old
al2m4n/TheYgentURLs, so existing clones, issues and pull requests keep working.
What stays the same¶
- Your installation and your data. Agents, versions, runs, conversations, models, credentials and settings are untouched. There is nothing to migrate.
- Technical names. They keep the old spelling, so scripts and configuration you already have keep working:
| What | Name |
|---|---|
| Environment variables | THEYGENT_* (see environment variables) |
| Data folder | ~/.theygent |
| Webhook signature header | X-TheYgent-Signature |
| AI gateway key header | X-TheYgent-Gateway-Key |
| Python packages and modules, npm packages, Docker and Kubernetes names | theygent… |
If a later release renames any of these, its release notes say how to switch, and the old names keep working during the change.
