Bump default Gemini model to gemini-3.5-flash by giordano-lucas · Pull Request #1014 · nottelabs/notte

giordano-lucas · 2026-09-17T16:11:50Z

Google is retiring Gemini 2.5 Flash on Vertex AI starting October 20, 2026, with Gemini 3.5 Flash as the recommended replacement (model lifecycle).

LlmModel.gemini / LlmModel.gemini_vertex (the default reasoning model) now point to gemini-3.5-flash
README examples, docs snippets, nightly examples and tests updated to match

Users who pin gemini-2.5-flash explicitly should migrate before the retirement date.

Walkthrough

The pull request updates Gemini 2.5 Flash identifiers to Gemini 3.5 Flash across configuration, examples, workflows, documentation, and tests. It adds get_vertex_location to resolve locations for Vertex AI Gemini models from LiteLLM settings or environment variables, with a global fallback. The completion path passes this location to litellm.acompletion only for applicable models. Tests cover model defaults, location resolution, and completion-call arguments.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3844a

Node SDK users importing the model type cannot select the new Gemini 3.5 defaults without using an untyped string; regenerate the public client types before merging.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge; the endpoint fallback is narrowly scoped and the changed behavior has appropriate regression coverage.

Summary

This PR updates the default Gemini model to Gemini 3.5 Flash and ensures direct Vertex Gemini requests use an available location without altering location handling for other Vertex providers.

Updates Python defaults, examples, documentation, nightly configuration, and integration coverage.
Defaults direct Vertex Gemini calls to the global endpoint while preserving explicitly configured locations.
Restricts the location override to Gemini so Mistral, Llama, Claude, OpenRouter, and non-Vertex requests retain their existing behavior.
Adds focused unit and integration regression coverage for model defaults, conversion, and Vertex location handling.

Added tests for LlmModel.default() with and without Google credentials, and replied on the generated Node SDK types thread.

Good catch - narrowed the global-location fallback to vertex_ai/gemini* so Mistral and Llama on Vertex keep litellm's regional default, and added them to the regression test.

Also for the record on this branch: the us-central1 404s are fixed (Gemini 3.5 Flash is not served there), test_new_steps was flaky and passed on rerun, and the only remaining red test, test_signup_email_extraction, fails identically on main with an SMTP auth error.

🟡 Minor · Regenerate the public Node model union. · types.gen.ts:3144-3146

node-sdk/src/lib/client/types.gen.ts:3144-3146
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Regenerate the public Node model union. node-sdk/src/lib/client/types.gen.ts is checked-in generated output from the OpenAPI schema, and LlmModel is re-exported from the package root. It still lists only the Gemini 2.5 identifiers, while packages/notte-core/src/notte_core/common/config.py defines the Gemini 3.5 values. A consumer who imports LlmModel and types a selected model receives a TypeScript error when assigning either Gemini 3.5 identifier. Direct reasoning_model calls remain supported because that field also accepts string.

Refresh the OpenAPI-generated client and TypeScript reference from the updated schema. Do not edit the generated alias manually.
