The format did not change. Existing profiles still work.

Who it is for
People who notice the same thing called Clash Meta in one place and Mihomo in another, and worry about downloading the wrong file.
Before you read
- Know that client and core are separate layers
- Have the name of the client you want to download
Key ideas
- 1
The rename mainly came from confusion with other projects in the ecosystem, and from trademark concerns.
- 2
It only affects the core project name. The profile format is unchanged: still YAML.
- 3
Client names largely stayed the same. Clash Verge Rev is still Clash Verge Rev.
- 4
So when Clash Meta and Mihomo point at the same thing, you are not misreading it.
Common confusion
Finding an abandoned repo under the old name
Check the repository URL and last commit date, not just the project title.
Next step
Open a client page to confirm its official entry and current version.
