docs: reasoning-effort feature + programmatic-config note; swap homepage video - #404
Conversation
…age walkthrough video - technical/ai-providers.mdx: add 'Reasoning effort' subsection under ClawBox AI specifics — the 3 shipped levels (off/high/xhigh) and a Warning explaining why the list must be set in code (gateway-pre-start re-assert, npm overwrite, configured-provider override). Ties to TASK-227 (Volker report). - setup/choose-ai-provider.mdx: user-facing 'Reasoning effort' blurb linking to the technical detail. - index.mdx: replace the Portuguese walkthrough video with 'I Tested ClawBox' by Bootable USBs (youtube.com/watch?v=1cekuQjVikU). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
🦀 ClawReviewClaws waving — here's what this change is about. This PR documents the reasoning-effort picker in ClawBox AI — adding a user-facing explanation in the provider-selection guide and a technical deep-dive covering available levels, per-provider defaults, and why the configuration must live in code rather than hand-edited config files. It also swaps the homepage walkthrough video from a Portuguese-titled clip to a newer English-language review by Bootable USBs. At a glance

docs-site/setup/choose-ai-provider.mdx (lines 49-58) and
docs-site/technical/ai-providers.mdx (lines 49-57) to document the chat picker’s
four levels: off, low, medium, and high. Clearly distinguish these UI options
from the gateway compatibility mapping, where xhigh may be configured alongside
off and high, and state that xhigh is not a chat-header picker option.

DeepSeek V4's API accepts only two reasoning efforts. resolveDeepSeekV4ReasoningEffort() maps xhigh|max -> "max" and every other non-off level -> "high", so off/high/xhigh already reach every distinct behavior. The 4 unexposed levels (minimal/low/medium/max) are aliases, not missing capability. Answers the premise behind TASK-227: the 3-of-7 menu is not a functional limitation.

Per Karchev: no information about our DeepSeek model or how we map it. Rewritten in neutral ClawBox AI terms - no model mapping, no upstream effort values, no internal plugin/catalog paths. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Note GitHub couldn't provide a complete incremental comparison for this pull request, so CodeRabbit is performing a full review instead. This review may take a little longer. |
Per Karchev: not every model exposes off/high/xhigh. Levels are advertised per provider/model, unsupported selections clamp down, and models with no reasoning control (e.g. the on-device local model) hide the dial entirely.

- Line 57: Update the documentation sentence about unsupported reasoning levels
to state that the value falls back to the model configuration’s default, not
that it is clamped to the nearest supported level. Keep the per-model
supported-level behavior intact and document provider-switch mapping separately
only if applicable.

CodeRabbit was right: the chat header picker is UNIFORM_LEVELS (off/low/medium/high) for every cloud provider - xhigh is NOT a picker option, it is gateway compatibility metadata on a different layer. The previous text conflated the two. Also corrected per src/components/ChatPopup.tsx:697-716: an unsupported level falls back to the provider default, not to the nearest level. Adds the real defaults (ClawBox AI = off, other cloud = medium) and that llamacpp is off-only so the picker is hidden entirely.

Both findings verified against source and fixed in 1. Picker levels — confirmed, the text was wrong. 2. Clamping — confirmed, also wrong. Also documented that

What
Documents the reasoning-effort feature and explains that the available levels must be set programmatically. Raised from TASK-230 / TASK-227. Owner: Georgi.
