3.13.1 Understand settings
Use the relevant settings section: Models & providers for model connectivity, Device connection for device failures, and Data locations for local data locations.
Which changes affect a task
| Change | Effect |
|---|---|
| Default runtime for new tasks | Affects newly created tasks only; existing bindings remain |
| Model entries | Saved/selected model configuration is used without changing the task runtime |
| Project or device folder | Changes the work location; check the original binding when resuming history |
| Data directory | Existing files are not automatically migrated; some settings require restart |
| App update | Save files and restart as instructed |
The composer runtime indicator opens runtime settings, and the model settings entry opens Models & providers. A redundant model control may be hidden when only one default alias exists.
Deployment differences
Public Web Cloud isolates user data by account and hides process-wide Data locations, Feishu, and WeChat configuration. Custom MCP and host capabilities also depend on deployment permissions.
Recovery and reset
Model export is not a full local-data backup. If history recovery fails, restore local storage and services, then select Retry local history recovery. Resetting or deleting data may affect other accounts using the same local data directory and is not a substitute for signing out.
