Spec — AI model selector

Backend: services/ai/modelreg/ + services/ai/gateway/ + services/ai/kode/ (Relay). Registry sourceoftruth: registries/ai-model-recommendations.md. Companion: cost-display.kmd (#112).

Princípios

1. *apabilityfirst display*— user vê o que o model SUPORTA (visiontoolsreasoning/longcontext/voice), não só o nome.
2. *ost transparency*— tier visible (1x10x100x); crosslink cost display permessage.
3. *uto mode is the default*— Kode Relay routing escolhe modelo apropriado per task.
4. *idconversation switch*— supported com warning de cache repriming cost.

R1 — Anatomia

Compact button (chat header chip): current model name + capability icons.

Tap → opens menu:

Slots:

R2 — Capability chips

Source: model declared capabilities in modelreg. Refresh on session start.

R3 — Cost tier

Relative to baseline (base_cost-equivalent of cheapest available model in registry):

Source: registries/ai-model-recommendations.md (per-model pricing). Tier displayed; absolute cost via cost-display.kmd (#112).

R4 — "Auto" mode

Default selection: "Auto · let Kode Relay decide".

Behavior:

• Gateway request has model: "auto".
• services/ai/kode/ Relay receives + analyzes task (prompt classification, attached content types, agent vs chat) + routes to best model.
• Resulting model shown in response metadata; chip updates retroactively to show which model handled THIS message (not the next).

User can override (pick specific model); subsequent requests honor override.

R5 — Mid-conversation switch warning

Switching model mid-conversation has cost:

• Previous context cached em old model (Anthropic prompt caching, OpenAI cached input, etc.) is lost.
• New model needs full context re-priming.

When user switches mid-conversation:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Switching model: warning                    │
│                                             │
│ The new model will need to re-read your    │
│ {N} message history. Estimated extra cost: │
│ {tokens} tokens (~{currency}).              │
│                                             │
│ [Cancel]                        [Switch]    │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Skip warning if context is empty (new conversation).

R6 — Recent-used

Maintain MRU list per (koder_user_id, workspace_id). Top 3 surfaced as quick-pick group.

R7 — Per-tenant default

Workspace settings allow default_model: "<model_id>" override of Auto. Per-user override possible. Cascade: user > workspace > stack default (Auto).

R8 — Surface bindings

R9 — Acessibilidade

• Button: aria-haspopup="menu" aria-expanded="...".
• Menu: role="menu" + items role="menuitem".
• Provider groups: role="group" aria-label="<provider>".
• Selected: aria-checked="true".
• Keyboard nav: arrows + Enter + Esc.
• Screen reader announces model name + cost tier + 3 capabilities.

R10 — i18n

R11 — Per-preset variation

Cosmetic: button shape per preset; menu fill; chip styles. Content fixed.

T-suite

• *1*Mount: button shows current model + 3 capability icons; "Auto" by default.
• *2*Open menu: tap button → menu populates from modelreg.
• *3*Capability chips: model with vision+tools+reasoning shows correct icons.
• *4*Cost tier display: model priced 50x baseline → "50×" badge.
• *5*Switch: select different model → onModelChange callback fires.
• *6*Switch warning: existing conversation + switch → confirmation dialog.
• *7*Auto mode: select Auto → gateway request includes model="auto".
• *8*Recent: switch twice → recent group has 2 entries.
• *9*Per-tenant default: workspace sets default_model → loaded on new conversation.
• *10*A11y: arrow keys nav menu; Enter selects.
• *1*Modelreg unavailable: graceful fallback to Auto only.
