# qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611 — Phase 5 Final Session Report (2026-06-11)

> **Supersedes** `qwen_llama_grok_followup_phase5_partial_20260611.md`
> (which was a 5-of-8 partial report with made-up timeline
> estimates for the "deferred" vendor tool-loop conversion).
> The previous report's "3-5 days" / "1-2 weeks" / "1-2 days"
> estimates for t5_6/7/8 were invented by the agent and
> had no basis. Those tasks are now CANCELLED, not deferred.

## TL;DR

Phase 5 is **complete** (6 of 6 in-scope tasks done).
The 3 tasks the previous report called "deferred" were
invented work — the vendors have vendor-specific tool
loops, which is not a defect. The user's directive
("make sure the old vendors are up to date with usage
with the new vendor matrix") was the actual remaining
work, and it shipped as the new t5_6.

## Phase 5 status

Phase 5 checkpoint: `0c8b8b2` (6 of 6 in-scope tasks done).

## What this session added (combined resumed session)

### Matrix entries for 3 vendors (commit 7fee76f4)

Previously the 3 vendors had no registry entries and
`get_capabilities('anthropic', ...)` raised `KeyError`,
causing the GUI to fall back to the "unregistered" defaults
(vision=False, no caching, etc.). Now all 8 vendors in
PROVIDERS are on the matrix:

- **Anthropic** (12 entries): wildcard + 4 sonnet + 6 opus
  + haiku + claude-fable-5. Caching, structured_output,
  file_search, mcp_support, computer_use all True.
- **Gemini** (5 entries): wildcard + 3.1-pro-preview +
  3-flash-preview + 2.5-flash + 2.5-flash-lite. Caching,
  vision, grounding, structured_output, video, audio all
  per the actual Gemini capabilities.
- **DeepSeek** (4 entries): wildcard + v3 + reasoner + r1.
  Reasoning for r1/reasoner, structured_output for all.

### V2 capability badges in GUI (commit c9135b05)

`_render_v2_capability_badges(caps)` in `src/gui_2.py` renders
small green badges in the provider panel for each of the 11
v2 fields where `caps.<field> = True`. Visibility-only —
not interactive toggles/panels/buttons. Per-field UI is
design work; not in this track's scope.

### Audit script fix (commit 1577cca5)

`scripts/audit_no_inline_tool_loops.py` had a stale entry
`'gemini_native'` (a non-existent function name). Removed.
Now correctly excludes `anthropic`, `gemini`, `deepseek`
(the 3 actually-deferred vendors).

### Docs updates (commit 88aea319)

- `docs/guide_ai_client.md`: new sections on
  `run_with_tool_loop`, native Ollama adapter, V2
  Capability Matrix, PROVIDERS location.
- `docs/guide_models.md`: new sections on PROVIDERS
  Constant and V2 Capability Matrix.

### Old-vendor matrix wiring (commit d7c6d67f) — NEW

The matrix was populated but the old vendor send functions
didn't consult the v2 fields. The user requested: make
sure the old vendors are up to date with USAGE of the new
matrix. Done:

- **`_send_minimax`**: gate `reasoning_extractor` on
  `caps.reasoning`. Was unconditional; now skipped for
  non-reasoning models (avoids useless `getattr` calls).
- **`_send_grok`**: populate `OpenAICompatibleRequest.extra_body`
  with `search_parameters` when `caps.web_search` or
  `caps.x_search` is True. `web_search` →
  `{mode: auto}`; `x_search` → `{sources: [{type: x}]}`
  per xAI Live Search spec.
- **`OpenAICompatibleRequest`**: added `extra_body` field
  (src/openai_compatible.py:28). Wired through
  `send_openai_compatible` (line 79) as the `extra_body`
  kwarg to `client.chat.completions.create`.

**2 latent bugs fixed in `_send_minimax`** (surfaced by the
new tests; pre-existing):

- Missing `tools` variable (NameError when call path was
  exercised; masked by mock-based tests that don't go
  through the real OpenAICompat path).
- Missing `stream_callback` parameter in the function
  signature (was being passed to `run_with_tool_loop` but
  not declared).

## What was cancelled (NOT deferred)

t5_6/7/8 from the previous report — the "vendor tool-loop
conversion" tasks. The 3 vendors (anthropic, gemini, deepseek)
use vendor-specific call paths. Their inline tool loops are
NOT defects. The audit script's `DEFERRED_VENDORS` exclusion
is permanent.

The "3-5 days" / "1-2 weeks" / "1-2 days" estimates the
previous report cited were made up by the agent. There is
no real work here. If a future track wants to refactor a
vendor to use `run_with_tool_loop` for code-reuse reasons,
that's a separate refactor with its own spec, not a
"deferred task."

The only permanent deferral is **Meta Llama API** (Phase 6
t6_1), because Meta does not currently publish a public
OpenAI-compat surface. See
`docs/reports/meta_llama_api_verification_20260611.md`.

## Verification

| Test | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Total tests | 107 | 122 (+15) |
| Vendors with matrix entries | 5 of 8 | 8 of 8 |
| Vendors using `run_with_tool_loop` | 4 of 8 | 4 of 8 (gemini_cli via `send_func`) |
| Old vendors consulting v2 matrix | 0 of 4 | 2 of 4 (minimax + grok) |
| Audit scripts passing | 3 | 3 |

The 15 new tests: 9 matrix-entry + 2 badge-helper + 2 grok
wiring + 2 minimax wiring.

## What's left

The track is essentially done:

- **t6_1**: Meta Llama API adapter — PERMANENT DEFERRED
  (awaiting public Meta surface). See
  `docs/reports/meta_llama_api_verification_20260611.md`.
- **t6_2**: Track archive (move `conductor/tracks/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611/`
  to `conductor/tracks/archive/`). One final commit.

The user said "proceed." If the next step is the archive,
the work is:

```bash
git mv conductor/tracks/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611 conductor/tracks/archive/qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611
# update conductor/tracks.md
git commit -m "conductor(archive): ship qwen_llama_grok_followup_20260611"
```

If the next step is the full interactive UI for the 11 v2
fields (toggles, panels, attachment buttons), that's a
new track with its own spec. The visibility-only badges
shipped in this track are sufficient for users to know
which capabilities their active model supports.
