openai removes gpt-5-mini on dec 11 2026, so this runtime default will stop working then. deprecation notice.

i switched the default and premium limit fallback to gpt-5.6-terra. the existing responses request already uses max_output_tokens, supports tools and keeps its configured thinking effort, including medium on the premium fallback.

go test ./pkg/aiusechat/uctypes ./pkg/aiusechat/openai ./pkg/aiusechat passed. the first two packages have no test files; the aiusechat tests passed. i did not run the desktop app or a live api request.

Walkthrough

The exported DefaultOpenAIModel constant now defaults to gpt-5.6-terra instead of gpt-5-mini.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to db2b2

Premium users who hit their rate limit would get an error instead of falling back to the default model, because the new model is missing from the compatibility list. Add gpt-5.6-terra to that list before merging.

existing gpt-5.1 or gpt-5-mini chats to continue with the new default; add

Add the new model to the compatibility check.

When a gpt-5.1 request hits the premium limit, RunAIChat keeps chatOpts.Config.Model as gpt-5.1 and sets cont.Model to gpt-5.6-terra. AreModelsCompatible rejects that pair, so the backend returns cannot continue with a different model before sending the fallback request. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

The same check also rejects an existing gpt-5.1 or gpt-5-mini chat when a later request uses the new default. (raw.githubusercontent.com) Add the new model to the compatible set and cover both paths.
