Model Catalog

v0.7.0-alpha snapshot. Model ids move fast. This page tracks the curated ids shipped in the setup wizard as of the current release. The live source of truth is curated_models_for_provider / default_model_for_provider in src/onboard/wizard.rs; the /model picker in the TUI reads the same lists.

Model ids are free-form strings — the runtime passes whatever you set in default_model straight to the provider. Nothing gates them, so any id the provider accepts works even if it is not listed here. The curated ids below are just the vetted defaults the onboarding wizard and /model picker offer.

How the per-provider default works

When you run the setup wizard and accept the suggested model for a provider, the wizard writes that provider’s default into default_model (see default_model_for_provider in src/onboard/wizard.rs). This is a wizard-time default — the id it pre-fills for the chosen provider — not a live runtime fallback.

If default_model is left unset entirely in config.toml, the agent loop uses a hardcoded fallback of anthropic/claude-sonnet-4 rather than the per-provider default (see src/agent/loop_.rs). In practice default_model is always populated after onboarding, so the per-provider default is what you get.

Recommended default per provider

Canonical provider name (aliases resolve to these) and the id default_model_for_provider returns:

Curated menus (flagships)

The wizard and /model picker present these per-provider menus. The entry marked “(default)” is what default_model_for_provider returns — note that Moonshot and Qwen list the newest id first while still defaulting to the stable flagship.

Anthropic

OpenAI

Removed phantom ids (0.6.80). The openai list no longer includes gpt-5.5-codex, and the bare gpt-5.3 id is gone — neither exists on the OpenAI API. The openai-codex provider now defaults to gpt-5.3-codex (the newest codex id that actually exists), and regression tests assert the phantom ids never reappear.

OpenAI Codex (openai-codex)

DeepSeek

Qwen

GLM / Z.ai (glm, zai)

Moonshot / Kimi (moonshot)

MiniMax

xAI / Grok (xai)

Mistral

Cohere

Gemini

OpenRouter and aggregators

openrouter (and astrai) use slash-prefixed, cross-provider ids because they route to many upstreams. The curated OpenRouter menu leads with anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6 (the default), and also offers anthropic/claude-opus-4.7, openai/gpt-5.5, google/gemini-3-pro, x-ai/grok-4.1-fast, deepseek/deepseek-v3.2, moonshotai/kimi-k2.6, and z-ai/glm-5.1, among others. Set any provider-prefixed id the aggregator supports.

Overriding at runtime

For most providers the wizard can also fetch the live model list from the provider’s /models endpoint (supports_live_model_fetch in src/onboard/wizard.rs), so the picker shows current ids beyond this curated set. You can always set default_model by hand or switch mid-session with /model. See Providers for provider slugs, routing, and fallbacks.
