Part of #241. The real-account check stays open (see "Left on #241").

Summary

Follow-ups to Sign in with ChatGPT, following OpenAI's UI guidelines (https://developers.openai.com/siwc/ui-ux-guidelines):

 <BootstrapGate>
+  <ChatGPTWelcome/>            # "You're using your ChatGPT plan", once ever (engine: status.welcome)
 <ChatGPTConnect>               # Settings > Models and now onboarding
-  <Button>Continue with ChatGPT</Button>
+  <ContinueWithChatGPT/>       # OpenAI's published logo, white on black (light) / black on white (dark)
 <CloudBrain>                   # onboarding cloud step
-  providers.filter(!sign_in)
+  providers (adds "ChatGPT plan" tile -> <ChatGPTConnect/>, plan models prefilled by the rule)
 <Composer>
   <ModelOverride/>
+  <PlanIndicator/>             # "Using ChatGPT plan" + Manage usage while next message goes to chatgpt/*

Logo: OpenAI's sign-in button asset (https://developers.openai.com/assets/siwc/sign-in-buttons/chatgpt-logo-white.svg and -black.svg), the same path in white or black only. The button page says to use "approved OpenAI branding and assets" (https://developers.openai.com/siwc/website).

The fast model rule (docs/API.md section 3). The plan's model list gives slug, name, visibility and order, but nothing about size or speed:

 pick_models(listed)
-  fast = first name containing "mini"/"nano", else first
+  listed = sorted by OpenAI's priority when the list gives one (lower first; ties and unranked keep list order)
+  main = fast = first of listed
 _chatgpt_stream(role)
-  reasoning = role effort, dropped when "none"
+  effort = role effort unless "none"
+          else lightest of the model's supported_reasoning_levels (list loaded at most every 10 min)
+          else nothing (model default)

Engine contract: GET /api/models/connect/chatgpt gains welcome; new POST /api/models/connect/chatgpt/welcome. A dev-only demo sign-in (#/...?demo=1&chatgpt=1, never in a packaged build) fakes the signed-in screens for capture.

Evidence

Built app, driven through the DevTools protocol. I looked at every screenshot:

  • Onboarding cloud step (real engine, fresh home): a new "ChatGPT plan" tile (logo, "Sign in"). Picking it shows "Use your ChatGPT plan", the guideline body, and the black Continue with ChatGPT button with the white logo in light theme (white button, black logo in dark). Zoomed in, the logo is crisp in both.
  • Welcome (demo sign-in, Settings > Models): a centered dialog with the logo tile, "You're using your ChatGPT plan", "Eligible usage in this app uses your ChatGPT plan. Manage usage in your ChatGPT settings." (link) and Got it. After Got it it's gone.
  • Signed-in panel: "Using your ChatGPT plan" badge, maya.rao@example.com, 4 models, Manage usage, Sign out, Use ChatGPT for every job.
  • Chat indicator (seeded Maya Rao, main model chatgpt/gpt-6-astra): the composer shows Auto · [logo] Using ChatGPT plan · Manage usage ↗ in dark and light.

Fast model rule on a recorded list: OpenAI's published Codex model catalog (openai/codex codex-rs/models-manager/models.json, 11 models, 8 listed):

ranked (priority): gpt-6.1-sol (1), gpt-6-astra (2), gpt-6-sol (3), gpt-6-luna (4), gpt-5.6-sol (5), gpt-5.6-terra (8), gpt-5.6-luna (9), gpt-5.5 (13)
  (the list itself puts gpt-6-astra first)
old name guess finds a mini/nano model: None
rule picks: {main: chatgpt/gpt-6.1-sol, fast: chatgpt/gpt-6.1-sol}
fast role (reasoning none)     -> {"effort": "low", "summary": "auto"}
primary role (reasoning medium) -> {"effort": "medium", "summary": "auto"}

No regression for a user without ChatGPT. Real engine on a fresh home, port 8787, random token:

GET /api/models/connect/chatgpt -> signed_in false, welcome false
presets: Local only / Cloud (anthropic) / Mixed: unchanged
chat claude-code/sonnet: 12.8 s, "Tokyo is the capital of Japan, known for ... Shibuya Crossing ..."
chat qwen3:8b:           25.5 s, "The capital of Japan is Tokyo ...", 32% of context
engine log: 0 tracebacks

Tests: test_welcome_message_shows_once, test_fast_model_rule_on_a_realistic_list and test_fast_jobs_use_the_lightest_listed_effort are new; the Cloud preset test now expects fast = main. Full suite (after the priority change): 1428 passed, 2 skipped. Ruff clean, desktop typecheck and build clean.

Merge Danger

Door: two-way

Blast Radius: small

Without a ChatGPT sign-in nothing changes except the onboarding cloud grid, which gains one tile. With a sign-in, fast jobs now run the main plan model with light reasoning instead of a "mini" model, and they may load the plan's model list once.

Left on #241

  • Real-account check (pending a Plus or Pro account): sign in with Plus and with Pro, the real model list (including whether /v1/models carries supported_reasoning_levels; if it doesn't, fast jobs send no effort and use the model's default), a streamed tool call, a refresh after an hour, usage-limit behaviour, and switching accounts with the saved client id. This is recorded in docs/VERIFICATION.md.
  • Decided (third commit): models are ranked by priority when the list gives it, so the everyday model (e.g. gpt-6.1-sol) is the default for main and background jobs; list order is the fallback. Whether the real /v1/models response carries priority is part of the real-account check.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added ChatGPT plan sign-in and model selection during first-run setup, with a ChatGPT-branded sign-in option.
    • ChatGPT plans use the highest-ranked model for both everyday and background tasks, with the lightest available reasoning for background work.
    • Added a post-sign-in welcome message and an in-chat indicator for ChatGPT plan usage, including a link to manage usage.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified plan eligibility, usage and credits, model ranking, and reasoning defaults.

…st model rule

Follow-ups to Sign in with ChatGPT (part of #241):

- OpenAI's UI guidelines: "Continue with ChatGPT" now carries OpenAI's published
  ChatGPT logo (white or black, unchanged), a one-time "You're using your ChatGPT
  plan" message after the first sign-in (engine: `welcome` in the status and
  POST /api/models/connect/chatgpt/welcome), and "Using ChatGPT plan" with a
  Manage usage link in the chat box while the next message goes to a plan model.
- First-run setup offers the ChatGPT plan in the cloud step.
- Fast model rule: the plan's first listed model for both main and fast jobs;
  fast jobs (reasoning "none") send the lightest effort the model list gives
  for that model. No more guessing from "mini" or "nano" in names.
- Dev-only demo sign-in (`?demo=1&chatgpt=1`) to capture the signed-in screens.

Merge Risk | ⚪ Minimal · up to d5597

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to d5597

The identified duplicate-request risk is resolved, and a failed model-list lookup does not stop a ChatGPT plan request. No merge-blocking issue remains established.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to d5597

The added sign-in and welcome flow retains existing access checks. Risk is low, but live-account behavior and account-switching edge cases remain unverified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • observed — The new acknowledgement operation has bounded authority: a gateway-authenticated caller can set one computer-wide welcome flag, including before a later account signs in. It does not return OAuth tokens or modify model permissions. This ownership matches the documented once-per-computer contract.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The new endpoint inherits the models router's shared authentication dependency, which rejects missing or mismatched gateway tokens. The full-base comparison shows that this dependency and token verifier predate the PR; the added endpoint does not create an unauthenticated route.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — A model-list request started under an earlier account can finish after invalidation and repopulate the new reasoning cache, because writes have no account-generation check. This extends the pre-existing global context-metadata pattern into request construction. Static ordering supports stale metadata, but not credential reuse or authorization bypass; production compatibility and failure impact remain unverified.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider generation-scoping metadata loads so results begun before sign-out or account replacement cannot repopulate the cache afterward. This would strengthen lifecycle isolation; it is not a verified authorization vulnerability.

Then picks the first model waiting there.
Light reasoning hops into the stream,
A welcome note completes its gleam.

402-417: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Concurrent plan calls can trigger duplicate model-list loads.

reasoning_effort checks _listed_at before it awaits list_models. list_models sets _listed_at only after the HTTP response arrives. Several fast jobs that start together can each pass the check and each call the models endpoint. After the first success, _efforts is filled and later calls skip the load. The cost is a few extra requests at the first use.

Set _listed_at = time.time() before the await to claim the retry window. The except branch already resets it.

Proposed fix
     if model not in _efforts and time.time() - _listed_at > MODEL_INFO_RETRY_S:
+        _listed_at = time.time()
         try:
             await list_models(config)
         except Exception:  # offline or refused: the reply itself will say what went wrong
             _listed_at = time.time()

⚠️ Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Hard-coded URL duplicates the status value.

MANAGE_USAGE repeats the engine's manage_usage_url. ChatGPTWelcome and ChatGPTConnect use the status value with the same fallback. Use useChatGPTStatus here as well, so the link follows the engine.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve manual model choices after the initial ChatGPT defaults.

Combobox accepts custom model values. If a user selects a non-ChatGPT primary, a later plan.data update can satisfy this condition and overwrite both primary and fast. Existing primary, fast, and cloudProvider values do not distinguish an initial default from a later user choice. Track initialization separately for both fields in the onboarding draft, and mark each field initialized when its default or a user choice is applied.

Review follow-up: the ChatGPT plan defaults in the onboarding cloud step are
applied once per pick, and concurrent plan calls claim the model-list retry
window before loading it.
When the plan's model list ranks its models with priority (lower first), the
catalog orders them by it before the fast model rule picks the first one, so
the everyday model becomes the default for main and background jobs. List order
stays the fallback for ties and unranked lists.
