# Providers and setup

> Enable providers, understand what is available in your environment, and troubleshoot missing options.

Use **Settings** to prepare the providers fabriqa can use in your environment.

## What can appear in fabriqa

fabriqa can surface both coding-agent providers and direct model providers.

### Common agent provider examples

* Claude Code
* Cursor
* Gemini CLI
* OpenCode
* GitHub Copilot
* Kimi
* Augment
* Codex CLI

### Common direct model provider examples

* Anthropic
* OpenAI
* Google
* OpenRouter

## What you do in Settings

* review which agents are available
* see which providers are installed or connected
* enable or disable providers
* sign in where needed
* open provider-specific setup details
* choose defaults that make sense for your workflow

## Status you may see

* available
* installed
* not installed
* needs sign-in

## Advanced setup details

Some providers expose extra setup details such as:

* how to run the provider
* sign-in guidance
* runtime channel or launch method
* version and update information

## Why a provider may be missing

* it is not installed
* it is installed but not enabled
* it needs sign-in
* it requires credentials that are not configured yet
* it is not available in the current runtime environment

## Best practice

Enable only the providers you actually use. That keeps the picker cleaner and reduces accidental switching.

Go to [Providers and models](/concepts/providers-and-agents) if you want the high-level decision guide before you configure anything.
