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.ai and docs.theygent.ai redirect to the matching page on the new addresses.
  • The GitHub repository. It is github.com/al2m4n/ertir. GitHub redirects the old al2m4n/TheYgent URLs, 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.
