 ### Fixes
 - Doctor: warn on pnpm workspace mismatches, missing Control UI assets, and missing tsx binaries; offer UI rebuilds.
 - Models/Providers: treat credential validation failures as auth errors to trigger fallback; normalize `${ENV_VAR}` apiKey values and auto-fill missing provider keys; preserve explicit GitHub Copilot provider config + agent-dir auth profiles.
+- Auth: drop invalid auth profiles from ordering so environment keys can still be used for providers like MiniMax.
 - Gemini: normalize Gemini 3 ids to preview variants; strip Gemini CLI tool call/response ids; downgrade missing `thought_signature`; strip Claude `msg_*` thought_signature fields to avoid base64 decode errors.
 - MiniMax: strip malformed tool invocation XML; include `MiniMax-VL-01` in implicit provider for image pairing.
 - Onboarding/Auth: honor `CLAWDBOT_AGENT_DIR` / `PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR` when writing auth profiles (MiniMax). (#829) — thanks @roshanasingh4.
