fix(cli): report model capabilities the way the runtime resolves them - #2086
Conversation
`ocx models` classified each row with bare lookups while the proxy
resolves the same four fields through modelInList / modelRecordValue,
which accept a family entry for a tagged id.
With models ["gpt-oss:120b"], noVisionModels ["gpt-oss"],
modelContextWindows {"gpt-oss": 131072} and
modelReasoningEfforts {"gpt-oss": ["low","high"]}:
runtime isModelTextOnly = true, window 131072, efforts [low, high]
ocx models {"contextWindow":null,"inputModalities":null,
"reasoningEfforts":null}
Every field came back unclassified, so a text-only model reads as
image-capable and a configured window reads as unset -- for a config the
proxy honours in full.
Two tests. The first asserts isModelTextOnly first, so the command is
pinned to the runtime's answer rather than to a copy of it; it is red
without the src change. The second pins exact-over-family precedence and
passes either way -- it guards the fix from over-reaching, it is not
evidence of the bug.
237 tests green across cli-models, vision-eligibility, codex-catalog and
input-admission. tsc --noEmit clean.

- Around line 105-106: Update the modality resolution near modelInList and
modelRecordValue so a matching noVisionModels entry always produces text-only
modalities before consulting inputModalities. Preserve exact
modelInputModalities lookup for models not covered by noVisionModels, and add a
regression case covering a family noVisionModels match conflicting with an exact
image-capable modelInputModalities entry.

isModelTextOnly returns true on the noVisionModels match before it ever reads modelInputModalities, so a `gpt-oss` noVision entry beats an exact `gpt-oss:120b` entry that lists "image". Resolving the exact entry first made `ocx models` advertise image support the proxy then rejects — the same class of drift this PR set out to remove. Add the conflicting-config regression case, which asserts the runtime's answer via isModelTextOnly before comparing the CLI's. Thanks @coderabbitai for catching it.

Reviewed as part of a four-PR batch (#2077, #2085, #2086, #2100) applying the same The ordering claim checks out against Both new CLI tests are real oracles: they fail against the unfixed code on modality, context window, and effort output, and the no-vision-versus-exact-image case is a meaningful precedence test. Worth noting for the sibling PR: #2100 applies the same migration to routing capability evidence without this no-vision precedence, so the two surfaces would disagree. That is flagged over there. Minor: the description says two tests; the diff adds three. |

Reviewed as part of a four-PR batch with #2077, #2085, and #2100. Verdict: merge (still draft — flip it when you are ready). The ordering call is the valuable part of this PR and it is correct: The family-classification test is a real oracle: it fails against the old code on modality, context window, and effort output together. Minor: the description says two tests, the diff adds three. |
Summary
ocx modelsbuilds each row with bare lookups:The proxy resolves those same four fields through
modelInList/modelRecordValue, both of which accept a family entry for a tagged id —src/vision/index.ts:33-34(isModelTextOnly),src/reasoning-effort.ts:108,src/server/effort-policy.ts:122,src/codex/catalog/provider-fetch.ts:612.Why it bites
{ "models": ["gpt-oss:120b"], "modelContextWindows": { "gpt-oss": 131072 }, "noVisionModels": ["gpt-oss"], "modelReasoningEfforts": { "gpt-oss": ["low", "high"] } }Measured on this branch's parent:
Every field comes back unclassified. A model the proxy will treat as text-only is listed with no modality restriction, so it reads as image-capable; a window the proxy honours reads as unset. This is the command operators use to check what a config actually did, and it disagreed with the proxy on a config the proxy honours in full.
After the change the row is
{"contextWindow":131072,"inputModalities":["text"],"reasoningEfforts":["low","high"]}— identical to the runtime on all three.Verification
Two tests in
tests/cli-models.test.ts, and I want to be precise about what each one is worth:isModelTextOnlyand asserts that first, so the command is pinned to the runtime's answer rather than to a second copy of the rule. Red without the src change (16 pass, 1 fail).Blast radius, run locally:
npx tsc --noEmit— no errors.Related: this is the same divergence class as #2042 and #2059, on the CLI surface.
