what

Updated CopilotChat’s default model from gpt-4.1 to gpt-5-mini.

Also updated the README and generated vimdoc examples so documented defaults and model examples match the new config value.

why

GitHub Copilot lists GPT-4.1 as closing down on June 1, 2026. gpt-5-mini is the closest replacement because GitHub describes it as a general-purpose model suitable for fast, accurate coding and explanation tasks, matching the previous GPT-4.1 default use case.

references

Update default model from 'gpt-4.1' to 'gpt-5-mini' across the repo.
Modified README, generated docs, provider example, and the main config
(luas/CopilotChat/config.lua) so examples and defaults reflect the new
model. This ensures the plugin and docs use the newer model by default.
