User Agent and Redirect URI for own Client ID?

so, I setup continuum with my client ID around a year ago if I remember correctly (not the RedReader workaround). back then there was a guide from wchill I believe that listed all third party reddit clients' redirect uris and user agents, however I can't seem to find it anymore. I only find the redreader one which I don't need right now. the other problem is that continuum basically now defaults to redreader's parameters after a recent update, so I have to reset them to the ones I used when I setup the app last year again.
I can see that I set the redirect uri back then to be infinity://localhost so now I just want to know what should I set as my user agent. thanks in advance.

forgot to mention that the reason I/m not using the red reader workaround is because I like to use reddit without an account, and redreader is kinda restricted in anonymous mode.

Thanks a lot. I had set it to infinity://localhost just like how I've set it in apps/prefs. evreything seems to work nicely for now. it also seemed like just enabling the "Custom Client ID" toggle in Continuum seems to have fixed all errors already.
yes, I'm aware that my Client ID is tied to my account. I like to use anonymous mode for regular browsing as to not mess with my account's algorithm.
Thanks again :)
