Description

Keep Gemini thinking capability handling while preserving the existing reasoning-effort interface and wire defaults.

Compatibility is preserved for minimal=256, xhigh/max budget aliases (32768) and level aliases (HIGH). None and none still send include_thoughts=false, which hides summaries without disabling thinking; auto leaves caller-supplied configuration untouched. Unlisted/custom model IDs retain permissive version-based routing. Model-specific budget limits remain provider-validated rather than globally clamped.

Deliberate changes: known Gemini 3 models use native thinking levels, including known models below 3.5 and their numeric revisions. Gemini 3.1 Pro maps minimal to low. Known unsupported combinations raise UnsupportedParameterError locally: minimal on 3.8/3.7 Flash, and low/medium on 3.1 Flash Lite Image. Google recommends thinking levels for Gemini 3 while retaining budget compatibility; these changes can affect reasoning allocation compared with the earlier budget mapping. See Google's thinking controls and model limits.

Walkthrough

The Gemini provider now uses model-specific thinking levels and budgets, validates unsupported reasoning-effort combinations, separates response-format conversion, and verifies the generated SDK payload. The Gemini and Vertex AI extras now require google-genai>=1.70.0.

Changes

🟡 Changes recommended

A new wire-level unit test appears to assert an inconsistent JSON key casing for thinkingConfig, which risks validating the wrong request shape.

Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the Gemini provider’s reasoning_effort handling to better match current Gemini thinking capabilities, while keeping the existing reasoning_effort interface and its historical wire defaults. It introduces model-specific thinking-level routing and adds unit tests to verify both the internal config mapping and the SDK request payload.

Changes:

  • Add model-aware conversion from reasoning_effort to thinking_level or thinking_budget, with local rejection of known unsupported combinations.
  • Refresh and expand unit coverage for Gemini thinking configuration behavior, including a request-capture test using httpx.MockTransport.
  • Bump google-genai minimum version to >=1.70.0 for both gemini and vertexai extras.

Route Gemini 3 models through thinking levels, enforce supported levels for Flash image models, and preserve provider defaults when effort is unset.

Map Gemini 2.5 efforts to documented budgets, cap Flash variants to their supported maximum, and disable thinking with a zero budget where supported.

Thanks @IceCodeNew for implementing the Gemini thinking-capability update and adding the initial coverage.

While reviewing the changes against Google’s current documentation, I found a few missing capability cases:

  • Gemini 3.1 Flash Image also requires thinking_level.
  • Models where thinking is mandatory should reject reasoning_effort="none".
  • Gemini 2.5 Flash variants require model-specific budget limits.
  • An unspecified effort should preserve the provider default.

I added these adjustments and their unit coverage as a separate follow-up commit so your original contribution remains clearly represented. All 263 Gemini provider unit tests pass with the additional changes.

- Around line 106-110: The _matches_known_model function only recognizes numeric
aliases, so word-based and dated Gemini preview IDs miss capability-table
matching. Extend its suffix validation to accept segments such as preview, exp,
latest, and numeric date components while preserving exact-name matching and
rejecting unrelated suffixes; add focused tests covering these aliases and
capability behavior for Gemini 2.5 Pro and Flash limits.

sorry I should put this pr in draft status. I have done a clean-room aggregate audit and found multiple issues in the pr. Thanks for amending this pr, I will check whether there is something did not catched yet

## Description

google-genai's async client attaches an `aiohttp.ClientResponse` to the
errors it raises, and aiohttp spells the status `status`, not
`status_code`. `_extract_status_code` only read `status_code`, so every
async Gemini 4xx/5xx classified by message alone and came back with
`status_code=None`. This reads both spellings.

Split out of #1294, whose gemini half landed in #1381.

Tests: one new unit test in `tests/unit/test_exception_handler.py` that
builds a response carrying `status` and no `status_code`. It fails on
main (`assert None == 400`) and passes here.
`tests/unit/test_exception_handler.py`, 86 passed. Pre-commit clean.
