model definitions now support a new `allow_code_generation` flag, only to be used with higher reasoning models such as GPT-5-Pro and-Gemini 2.5-Pro
When `true`, the `chat` tool can now request the external model to generate a full implementation / update / instructions etc and then share the implementation with the calling agent.
This effectively allows us to utilize more powerful models such as GPT-5-Pro to generate code for us or entire implementations (which are either API-only or part of the $200 Pro plan from within the ChatGPT app)
Adds configuration for the new GPT-5 Pro model released by OpenAI.
Specifications from official docs:
- 400K context window
- 272K max output tokens (largest of GPT-5 family)
- Highest reasoning capability (5/5)
- Reasoning token support
- Vision input support (text+image input, text output only)
- No temperature support (fixed, like other reasoning models)
- Available via Responses API only (use_openai_response_api: true)
- Default reasoning effort: high
Accessible via alias 'gpt5pro'.
feat: Azure OpenAI / Azure AI Foundry support. Models should be defined in conf/azure_models.json (or a custom path). See .env.example for environment variables or see readme. https://github.com/BeehiveInnovations/zen-mcp-server/issues/265
feat: OpenRouter / Custom Models / Azure can separately also use custom config paths now (see .env.example )
refactor: Model registry class made abstract, OpenRouter / Custom Provider / Azure OpenAI now subclass these
refactor: breaking change: `is_custom` property has been removed from model_capabilities.py (and thus custom_models.json) given each models are now read from separate configuration files
* Support for Custom URLs and custom models, including locally hosted models such as ollama
* Support for native + openrouter + local models (i.e. dozens of models) means you can start delegating sub-tasks to particular models or work to local models such as localizations or other boring work etc.
* Several tests added
* precommit to also include untracked (new) files
* Logfile auto rollover
* Improved logging
