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)
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

* Remove simulation tests from GitHub Actions
- Removed simulation-tests job that makes real API calls
- Keep only unit tests (mocked, no API costs) and linting
- Simulation tests should be run manually with real API keys
- Reduces CI costs and complexity
GitHub Actions now only runs:
- Unit tests (569 tests, all mocked)
- Code quality checks (ruff, black)
