Description

  • Chat bar and settings page share option computation via reasoning-effort.ts; both hide when Enable Thinking is unticked
  • Ollama settings now renders its own thinking checkbox + effort dropdown; generic ThinkingBudget is skipped for it
  • Fetcher advertises low/medium/high/max for thinking-capable models
  • Handler sends think: "max" verbatim (previously clamped to "high") and maps "none" to think: false so the None option disables thinking

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features

  • Added model-aware reasoning effort controls in chat and provider settings.
  • Ollama models now show only supported options, including Disable, Low, Medium, High, and Max where applicable.
  • Added keyboard-accessible reasoning selection in the chat toolbar.

Improvements

  • Reasoning settings automatically adjust when switching models with different capabilities.
  • Ollama uses provider-specific reasoning controls instead of the generic thinking budget.

Bug Fixes

  • Ollama’s Max setting is now passed through correctly instead of being reduced to High.

- Chat bar and settings page share option computation via
  reasoning-effort.ts; both hide when Enable Thinking is unticked
- Ollama settings now renders its own thinking checkbox + effort
  dropdown; generic ThinkingBudget is skipped for it
- Fetcher advertises low/medium/high/max for thinking-capable models
- Handler sends think: "max" verbatim (previously clamped to "high")
  and maps "none" to think: false so the None option disables thinking

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds shared reasoning-effort selection to settings and chat, adds model-specific Ollama options including max, maps disabled reasoning to think: false, and adds accessibility and provider-specific tests.

Changes

Reasoning effort support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Ollama reasoning contract and request mapping
src/api/providers/native-ollama.ts, src/api/providers/fetchers/ollama.ts, src/api/providers/**/__tests__/*ollama*
Ollama resolves reasoning options by model. none maps to think: false, and max passes through to native requests.
Shared reasoning selection in settings
webview-ui/src/utils/reasoning-effort.ts, webview-ui/src/components/settings/ReasoningModeSelector.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/settings/SettingsView.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/settings/ThinkingBudget.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/settings/__tests__/ReasoningModeSelector.spec.tsx, webview-ui/src/utils/__tests__/reasoning-effort.spec.ts
Shared logic computes options, defaults, translations, and selected values. Settings normalize stored values when model capabilities change.
Ollama settings reasoning control
webview-ui/src/components/settings/providers/Ollama.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/settings/ApiOptions.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/settings/providers/__tests__/Ollama.spec.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/settings/__tests__/ApiOptions.ollama-thinking.spec.tsx
Ollama uses selected-model reasoning metadata and excludes the generic ThinkingBudget control.
Chat reasoning effort selector
webview-ui/src/components/chat/ReasoningEffortSelector.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/chat/ChatTextArea.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/chat/__tests__/ReasoningEffortSelector.spec.tsx, webview-ui/src/components/chat/__tests__/ChatTextArea.visual.*
The chat toolbar renders a reasoning-effort popover when supported. The selector preserves advertised options, persists only reasoningEffort, and supports keyboard navigation.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c59b0

Switching to an Ollama model with fewer supported reasoning levels can leave the selected effort out of sync and send an unsupported value, causing an incorrect request. Merge should wait for this bounded correctness issue to be fixed or explicitly accepted; test type assertions also merit follow-up.

Ollama documents GPT-OSS as accepting only low, medium, or high, so this advertises an unsupported Max choice for that model. Can we make the capability list model-specific and add a GPT-OSS regression test?

Previously reasoning selector had none - high for every models, thanks for noting about for gpt-oss and https://docs.ollama.com/capabilities/thinking#python-2 according to ollama docs, changes has been made to reflect the reasoning selector for gpt-oss. So, Detection matches on model id, family, or architecture, hyphen/underscore-normalized so "gpt-oss" / "gptoss" / "gpt_oss" all match — Ollama reports family/architecture as gptoss (no hyphen) while the model id keeps the hyphen (gpt-oss:20b/gpt-oss:120b), so checking all three is robust. The supportsReasoningEffort is always an explicit array (never bare true), so the selector respects it verbatim.

Added 3 regression tests in ollama.test.ts: gpt-oss advertises exactly ["low","medium","high"] with no max/disable; detection by architecture alone (gptoss); detection by model id alone.

This prepends None even when an explicit capability array intentionally omits it; for GPT-OSS, think: false is ignored and reasoning cannot be disabled. Can we preserve exact arrays, model off-support explicitly, and reuse the same normalization in the chat selector?

Removed the UI-side none prepend entirely. Off-support is now modeled explicitly in the capability array at the source: the fetcher includes disable for models that honor think: false (qwen3 → ["disable","low","medium","high","max"]) and omits it for GPT-OSS (["low","medium","high"]). Both surfaces now route through one shared helper, getOllamaReasoningModelInfo() in webview-ui/src/utils/reasoning-effort.ts, which passes the advertised array through verbatim and only synthesizes a ["disable","low","medium","high"] fallback when no model info has loaded. The settings page (Ollama.tsx) and chat selector (ReasoningEffortSelector.tsx) both call it, so they can't drift. getReasoningEffortSelection already respected explicit arrays as-is (it only auto-adds "disable" for supportsReasoningEffort === true), so Ollama arrays now flow through unchanged. Tests updated: fallback asserts disable,low,medium,high; a new GPT-OSS test asserts low,medium,high with no disable/none.

These options are not focusable or keyboard-operable, so keyboard users cannot select an effort. Can we render native buttons or the shared selectable-item primitive and add a keyboard interaction test?

Each row is now a native <button type="button" role="option" aria-selected={...}> (focusable, Enter/Space-activated by default, announced as an option) inside a <div role="listbox" aria-label> container whose onKeyDown handles ArrowUp/ArrowDown/Home/End to move focus between options. Added three keyboard-interaction tests: one asserting the listbox/option structure (native buttons, role="option", aria-selected, selected row marked true), one asserting an option is activatable (the path Enter/Space takes on a native button), and one asserting ArrowDown calls preventDefault so the listbox owns navigation. Note: this repo's vitest.setup.ts stubs HTMLElement.prototype.focus (for FAST/JSDOM compatibility), so document.activeElement never moves in JSDOM — the tests assert structure and preventDefault instead, which is the durable proof of keyboard-operability; real focus behavior is exercised by the new visual test in a real browser.

This adds a visible control to the compact chat toolbar, but the PR adds no *.visual.tsx baseline even though webview-ui/AGENTS.md requires one for at-a-glance layout changes. Can we add a representative chat-input snapshot, including the narrow-width state, and commit its Docker-generated baseline?

The handler and tests map none to think: false, with no separate reasoning: "none" field. Can we correct this comment and the matching native-None claim in the Ollama settings component?

Rewrote the comment in ReasoningEffortSelector.tsx to state the truth: the chat selector writes only reasoningEffort and never flips enableReasoningEffort; picking "None" (the "disable" option) stores reasoningEffort: "disable"; there is no separate reasoning: "none" field; Ollama has no native string "none" level and "disable" maps to think: false via getOllamaThinkParam(). Corrected the parallel comment in Ollama.tsx (the checkbox onChange block) to clarify the handler reads the stored reasoningEffort (undefined → no think param, not think: false) and that "disable" is a UI sentinel mapping to think: false. The native-ollama spec already asserts nonethink: false and disablethink: false.

These new mocks and fixtures use any/as any, so schema or component-prop changes will not be checked here. Can we use small typed mock-prop interfaces and typed ProviderSettings fixtures instead?

Replaced the any-typed Select mock props with typed interfaces (SelectMockProps, SelectTriggerMockProps, SelectValueMockProps, SelectContentMockProps, SelectItemMockProps) covering children, value, onValueChange, placeholder, and item-specific values; used React.isValidElement guards for the cloneElement calls. Replaced {} as any / { … } as any fixtures with typed ProviderSettings and ModelInfo objects (both are Zod objects with all-optional fields, so an empty {} is a valid ProviderSettings — no cast needed). A prop rename on the real Select components now surfaces as a compile error here. File typechecks and lints clean.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Normalize an invalid stored effort when the model changes.

If a user saves "disable" for Qwen and then selects GPT-OSS, this helper returns ["low", "medium", "high"]. getReasoningEffortSelection() displays the fallback "low", but the stored value remains "disable". The native request mapper then sends think: false instead of the effort shown in the UI.

Normalize and persist reasoningEffort at the model-switch boundary when the stored value is absent from the new capability array. Add a regression test that switches from a disable-capable model to GPT-OSS with reasoningEffort: "disable".

  so the stored effort, displayed effort, and sent think param agree
- Chat selector applies it at the model-switch boundary via a
  reasoningEffort-only write (soft toggle; enableReasoningEffort
  untouched)
- Cover with unit tests for reasoning-effort util; extend selector
  spec; refresh chat-toolbar visual baselines

Replace the ProviderSettings assertions.

reasoningEffort is optional, so these partial objects can use a contextual annotation or satisfies ProviderSettings without a cast. Apply this to all four cases, including the "low" case.
