# Objective
More and more models are supporting the `max` reasoning effort (DeepSeek
V4, GLM 5.2, etc) and that was missing from Zed.
## Solution
Added `ReasoningEffort::Max` level and implemented support for that
across providers. For most providers this is a no-op as they don't
support that (`max` is missing from `supported_reasoning_levels()`) but
for some providers this required tiny changes: for OpenCode there is now
a proper difference between `xhigh` and `max` (this bug was actually
what triggered this whole PR) and for DeepSeek reasoning levels were
migrated from a custom `deepseek::ReasoningEffort`.
## Testing
Tested and confirmed working with a simple _"rename this variable for
me. add a function. delete the function"_ test across a few providers
(OpenCode, GitHub Copilot, and DeepSeek).

Release Notes:
- OpenAI-compatible: added support for `max` reasoning levels
- OpenCode: added support for `max` reasoning levels
# Objective
Fix OpenAI-compatible reasoning/thinking support. Previously,
`OpenAiCompatibleLanguageModel` never reported thinking support, so
configured `reasoning_effort` values did not reliably reach the wire and
Responses API reasoning state could miss `include:
["reasoning.encrypted_content"]`.
Fixes#58289
Addresses #59207 for OpenAI-compatible Responses models configured with
`reasoning_effort`.
## Solution
- Treat a non-`none` configured `reasoning_effort` as OpenAI-compatible
thinking support.
- Expose common OpenAI-style effort levels in the agent UI, using the
configured effort as the default.
- Honor selected reasoning effort for OpenAI-compatible chat-completions
requests.
- Send `reasoning_effort: "none"` when thinking is disabled for a
configured reasoning model.
- Preserve native OpenAI behavior by continuing to use native
model-specific supported efforts and `max_completion_tokens`.
- Add an OpenAI-compatible `max_tokens_parameter` capability for
endpoints that expect output limits as `max_tokens`.
- Parse common streamed thinking fields (`reasoning` and
`reasoning_content`).
- Add provider setup UI and docs for configuring OpenAI-compatible
reasoning models.
## Testing
- `cargo fmt -p language_model_core -p agent_ui -p language_models`
- `cargo test -p language_models provider::open_ai_compatible::tests
--lib`
- `cargo test -p language_models provider::open_ai::tests --lib`
- `cargo test -p open_ai completion::tests --lib`
- `cargo test -p agent_ui
agent_configuration::add_llm_provider_modal::tests --lib`
- `git --no-pager diff --check`

Adds provider-side context compaction support to the Anthropic and
OpenAI API clients. Client plumbing only; not wired into the UI.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Stop the Zed cloud LLM provider from funneling completion failures
through anyhow::Error and collapsing them into
LanguageModelCompletionError::Other (which surfaced as a generic
"Request failed.").
- perform_llm_completion now returns a typed
LanguageModelCompletionError, mapping each failure to its real variant
(SerializeRequest, HttpSend, ApiReadResponseError, and ApiError-derived
status variants).
- response_lines yields a typed ResponseStreamError so mid-stream read/
deserialize failures become ApiReadResponseError/DeserializeResponse
without a runtime downcast.
- Add a first-class PaymentRequired variant for HTTP 402 and remove the
now-dead PaymentRequiredError struct and its anyhow downcast checks.

Adds support for Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 model when using your own
Anthropic API key. Because Fable 5 cannot be offered under Zero Data
Retention (Anthropic retains inference logs for 30 days), this gates the
model behind an explicit data-retention consent: a new
telemetry.anthropic_retention setting (default off, surfaced in the
Privacy section of the settings UI), and a hard, non-retryable check in
the cloud completion path that raises a typed error when consent is
missing.
When Fable 5 declines a request, it transparently falls back to Claude
Opus 4.8 (matching Anthropic's server-side behavior), and the agent
panel shows a callout for the consent error with "Switch to Opus 4.8" /
"Accept" actions that resume the failed turn so the user's message
continues without retyping.
Closes AI-382
Release Notes:
- Add Claude Fable 5 to Anthropic BYOK

Adds the flat context compaction marker data model and replays persisted
markers into native agent transcripts as static dividers. This lets
compacted thread boundaries deserialize, render, and export to Markdown
without enabling automatic compaction behavior yet.
Release Notes:
- Improved agent threads to show restored context compaction dividers in
conversations
For long threads we will spend more and more time cloning the messages
just to save them to the database, as we need a copy of everything to do
so asynchronously. Messages are really expensive to clone though and we
accumulate a lot of them really fast, so even for smaller threads we
start seeing pauses in the millisecond range. The fix to this is fairly
simple though, we never mutate the messages once pushed to the vec, so
just Arc them.
This PR also slightly changes `UserMessage` to be a bit faster to clone
as well.
Release Notes:
- Fixed a cause of stutters when interacting with the agent
Follow-up to #49292:
- **Bug fix in `push_any_of_constraint`**: when both an `anyOf` and a
non-empty `allOf` were already present at the same level, the existing
`anyOf` was silently dropped. Now it's always preserved.
- **Canonical OpenAPI nullability**: collapse `{nullable: true}`-only
entries out of `anyOf` onto the parent so `anyOf: [{type: "string"},
{type: "null"}]` becomes `{type: "string", nullable: true}` (the form
Gemini actually expects) instead of `anyOf: [{type: "string"},
{nullable: true}]`.
- **Compile-time path consistency**: route `ToJsonSchemaSubsetTransform`
through the same `convert_null_in_types_to_nullable` helper so
Rust-defined tools using `Option<T>` also keep nullability on Gemini,
instead of silently truncating to the non-null type.
- Drop an unnecessary clone in `push_any_of_constraint` and simplify
`convert_types_to_any_of_defs`.
- Add a small `obj()` test helper and a regression test for the `anyOf +
allOf + multi-type` case.
Release Notes:
- Fixed `Option<T>` tool parameters being sent to Gemini without their
nullability, and fixed tool schemas with `anyOf` + `allOf` losing
constraints during the OpenAPI 3.0 conversion

Release Notes:
- gemini: Fixed an issue with MCP servers specifying tools with specific
schemas
When toggling fast mode, the setting is now written to `settings.json`
under `agent.default_model.speed`, so new threads start with the same
speed. This follows the same pattern as `enable_thinking` and `effort`.
The `speed` field uses the existing `Speed` enum (`"fast"` /
`"standard"`) rather than a boolean, to leave room for future speed
tiers.
Example settings:
```json
{
"agent": {
"default_model": {
"provider": "zed.dev",
"model": "claude-sonnet-4",
"speed": "fast"
}
}
}
```

- `language_model` no longer depends on provider-specific crates such as
`anthropic` and `open_ai` (inverted dependency)
- `language_model_core` was extracted from `language_model` which
contains the types for the provider-specific crates to convert to/from.
- `gpui::SharedString` has been extracted into its own crate (still
exposed by `gpui`), so `language_model_core` and provider API crates
don't have to depend on `gpui`.
- Removes some unnecessary `&'static str` | `SharedString` -> `String`
-> `SharedString` conversions across the codebase.
- Extracts the core logic of the cloud `LanguageModelProvider` into its
own crate with simpler dependencies.
