Add GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.4-pro as Bring Your Own Key model options for the
OpenAI provider.
**GPT-5.4** (`gpt-5.4`):
- 1,050,000 token context window, 128K max output
- Supports chat completions, images, parallel tool calls
- Default reasoning effort: none
**GPT-5.4-pro** (`gpt-5.4-pro`):
- 1,050,000 token context window, 128K max output
- Responses API only (no chat completions)
- Default reasoning effort: medium (supports medium/high/xhigh)
Also fixes context window sizes for GPT-5 mini and GPT-5 nano (272K →
400K) to match current OpenAI docs.
Closes AI-78
Release Notes:
- Added GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.4-pro as available models when using your own
OpenAI API key.
Adds `gpt-5.3-codex` as a built-in model under the OpenAI provider for
BYOK usage.
Model specs:
- 400,000 context window
- 128,000 max output tokens
- Reasoning token support (default medium effort)
- Uses the Responses API (like other codex models)
- Token counting falls back to the gpt-5 tokenizer
Closes AI-59
Release Notes:
- Added support for GPT-5.3-Codex as a bring-your-own-key model in the
OpenAI provider.
Remove GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, and o4-mini from BYOK model
options in Zed before OpenAI retires these models.
These models are being retired by OpenAI (ChatGPT workspace support ends
April 3, 2026), so they have been removed from the available models list
in Zed's BYOK provider.
Closes AI-4
Release Notes:
- Removed deprecated GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, and o4-mini models
from OpenAI BYOK provider
Support for Kimi K2 Thinking
Release Notes:
- Added support for thinking traces when using OpenAI-API-compatible AI providers

This PR makes it so we use a proper type for the Responses API `input`
rather than a `serde_json::Value`.
It should have never used `serde_json::Value` to begin with.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Add support for OpenAI's /responses endpoint for models that don't
support /chat/completions API. This enables compatibility with newer
model variants (`gpt-5-codex`, `gpt-5-pro`, `o3-pro`, etc) while
maintaining compatibility with existing configs
Changes:
- Add `supports_chat_completions` flag to model capabilities that
defaults to true for existing behavior
- Implement responses API client with streaming support as per [OpenAI
documentation](https://app.stainless.com/api/spec/documented/openai/openapi.documented.yml).
- Add `ResponseEventMapper` to convert responses events to completion
events for maintainer simplicity
- Update UI to allow toggling `chat_completions` capability
- Add `gpt-5-codex` model
Closes#38858
Release Notes:
- Added support for `gpt-5-codex` model

Automatically retry the agent's LLM completion requests when the
provider returns 429 Too Many Requests. Uses the Retry-After header to
determine the retry delay if it is available.
Many providers are frequently overloaded or have low rate limits. These
providers are essentially unusable without automatic retries.
Tested with Cerebras configured via openai_compatible.
Related: #31531
Release Notes:
- Added automatic retries for OpenAI-compatible LLM providers

I am using an Azure OpenAI instance since that is what is provided at
work and with how they have it setup not all responses contain a delta,
which lead to errors and truncated responses. This is related to how
they are filtering potentially offensive requests and responses. I don't
believe this filter was made in-house, instead I believe it is provided
by Microsoft/Azure, so I suspect this fix may help other users.

Follow up: #34532Closes#35434
Mostly fixes a issue were when the tool_choice is none it was getting
serialised as null. This was fixed for openrouter just wanted to follow
up and cleanup for other providers which might have this issue as this
is against the spec.
Release Notes:

This prevents the common footgun of copy/pasting an API key
starting/ending with extra newlines, which would lead to a "bad request"
error.
Closes#37038
Release Notes:
- agent: Support pasting language model API keys that contain newlines.
Some APIs fail when they get this parameter
Closes#36215
Release Notes:
- Fixed OpenAI-compatible providers that don't support prompt caching
and/or reasoning
Release Notes:
- Added `reasoning_effort` support to custom models
Tested using the following config:
```json5
"language_models": {
"openai": {
"available_models": [
{
"name": "gpt-5-mini",
"display_name": "GPT 5 Mini (custom reasoning)",
"max_output_tokens": 128000,
"max_tokens": 272000,
"reasoning_effort": "high" // Can be minimal, low, medium (default), and high
}
],
"version": "1"
}
}
```
Docs:
https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat/create#chat_create-reasoning_effort
This work could be used to split the GPT 5/5-mini/5-nano into each of
it's reasoning effort variant. E.g. `gpt-5`, `gpt-5 low`, `gpt-5
minimal`, `gpt-5 high`, and same for mini/nano.
Release Notes:
* Added a setting to control `reasoning_effort` in OpenAI models
Context: In this PR: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/33362,
we started to use underlying open_ai crate for making api calls for
vercel as well. Now whenever we get the error we get something like the
below. Where on part of the error mentions OpenAI but the rest of the
error returns the actual error from provider. This PR tries to make the
error generic for now so that people don't get confused seeing OpenAI in
their v0 integration.
```
Error interacting with language model
Failed to connect to OpenAI API: 403 Forbidden {"success":false,"error":"Premium or Team plan required to access the v0 API: https://v0.dev/chat/settings/billing"}
```
Release Notes:
- N/A
Ran into this while adding support for Vercel v0s models:
- The timestamp seems to be returned in Milliseconds instead of seconds
so it breaks the bounds of `created: u32`. We did not use this field
anywhere so just decided to remove it
- Sometimes the `choices` field can be empty when the last chunk comes
in because it only contains `usage`
Release Notes:
- N/A
Previously we were using a mix of `u32` and `usize`, e.g. `max_tokens:
usize, max_output_tokens: Option<u32>` in the same `struct`.
Although [tiktoken](https://github.com/openai/tiktoken) uses `usize`,
token counts should be consistent across targets (e.g. the same model
doesn't suddenly get a smaller context window if you're compiling for
wasm32), and these token counts could end up getting serialized using a
binary protocol, so `usize` is not the right choice for token counts.
I chose to standardize on `u64` over `u32` because we don't store many
of them (so the extra size should be insignificant) and future models
may exceed `u32::MAX` tokens.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Remove unnecessary alias attributes from Model enum variants and add
max_output_tokens limits for all OpenAI models. Also fix
supports_system_messages to explicitly handle all model variants.

- N/A

Fixes regression caused by:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/30639
Assistant messages can come back with no content, and we no longer
allowed that in the deserialization.
Release Notes:
- open_ai: fixed deserialization issue if assistant content was empty
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/30972 brought up another
case where our context is not enough to track the actual source of the
issue: we get a general top-level error without inner error.
The reason for this was `.ok_or_else(|| anyhow!("failed to read HEAD
SHA"))?; ` on the top level.
The PR finally reworks the way we use anyhow to reduce such issues (or
at least make it simpler to bubble them up later in a fix).
On top of that, uses a few more anyhow methods for better readability.
* `.ok_or_else(|| anyhow!("..."))`, `map_err` and other similar error
conversion/option reporting cases are replaced with `context` and
`with_context` calls
* in addition to that, various `anyhow!("failed to do ...")` are
stripped with `.context("Doing ...")` messages instead to remove the
parasitic `failed to` text
* `anyhow::ensure!` is used instead of `if ... { return Err(...); }`
calls
* `anyhow::bail!` is used instead of `return Err(anyhow!(...));`
Release Notes:
- N/A
* Adds a fast / cheaper model to providers and defaults thread
summarization to this model. Initial motivation for this was that
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/29099 would cause these
requests to fail when used with a thinking model. It doesn't seem
correct to use a thinking model for summarization.
* Skips system prompt, context, and thinking segments.
* If tool use is happening, allows 2 tool uses + one more agent response
before summarizing.
Downside of this is that there was potential for some prefix cache reuse
before, especially for title summarization (thread summarization omitted
tool results and so would not share a prefix for those). This seems fine
as these requests should typically be fairly small. Even for full thread
summarization, skipping all tool use / context should greatly reduce the
token use.

This PR disables `parallel_tool_calls` for the models that support it,
as the Agent currently expects at most one tool use per turn.
It was a bit of trial and error to figure this out. OpenAI's API
annoyingly will return an error if passing `parallel_tool_calls` to a
model that doesn't support it.
Release Notes:
- N/A
