Theseus 0.3.119: LLMs out of the search dropdown; reorder by popularity; add DuckAI, Alisa, Qwen
The toolbar magnifier dropdown mixed search engines and AI chat engines in one
list, which left the Pick-AI button on the sidebar strip looking redundant and
cluttered the thing people reach for when they want to find something on the
web. The dropdown is now search-only; LLMs are picked through the strip's own
AI picker overlay (which already lists them with real icons).
LLM order follows rough global popularity so a fresh profile defaults to the
one most people reach for: ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, DuckAI, Alisa,
Qwen. Three additions along with it:
* DuckAI (duck.ai) — anonymous, no sign-up, serves GPT-4o mini + Claude 3
Haiku + Llama 3 + Mistral behind one URL. Also wired as a toolbar search
target with pre-filled answer via &ia=chat.
* Alisa (ya.ru/alisa) — Russian-language assistant from Yandex.
* Qwen (chat.qwen.ai) — Alibaba's Tongyi chat; email sign-up, the strongest
non-mainland-phone access to a Chinese model.
Phind stays frozen (Vercel 404 at the root). A saved defaultLlmId pointing at
a frozen engine is cleared so the fallback resolves to the new list[0] rather
than silently flipping to whatever was second.
Engine home URLs can now opt into an override via a `home` field — needed by
DuckAI (its chat lives at the apex of duck.ai but prefers that URL over the
duckduckgo.com stem) and Alisa (chat UI lives at /alisa, not the apex of
ya.ru).
