I'm exploring this enhancement request to add xhigh reasoning effort for the OpenAI gpt5.1-codex-max model. Let me investigate the codebase to understand how reasoning efforts are configured and I'll propose an implementation plan shortly.

[roomote]

I've analyzed the codebase and here's my proposed implementation plan to add xhigh reasoning effort for the OpenAI gpt5.1-codex-max model:

Analysis

Currently, the reasoning effort options are defined as "none", "minimal", "low", "medium", and "high" in the type system. The gpt5.1-codex-max model currently supports ["low", "medium", "high"] but is missing the higher-tier reasoning options.

Proposed Solution

Based on the pattern I see with other GPT-5 models in the codebase, I propose two possible approaches:

Option A: Add existing extended options (Simpler)

Add "none" and "minimal" options to match other GPT-5 models:

1. Update packages/types/src/providers/openai.ts line 18 to include the extended options:

   supportsReasoningEffort: ["none", "minimal", "low", "medium", "high"],

This would align gpt5.1-codex-max with models like gpt-5.1, gpt-5, and gpt-5-mini which already have these extended options.

Option B: Introduce "xhigh" as a new reasoning level (More complex)

If you specifically need an "xhigh" option that goes beyond the current "high" setting:

1. Update the type definitions in packages/types/src/model.ts to include "xhigh" in the reasoning effort enums
2. Update all relevant schemas and types to support the new option
3. Add "xhigh" to the gpt5.1-codex-max model configuration
4. Update the API transform logic to handle the new "xhigh" value
5. Add tests for the new reasoning effort level

Recommendation

I recommend Option A as it's simpler and aligns with existing patterns. The current "high" setting already represents the maximum reasoning effort in the system. If you need Option B with a true "xhigh" level, this would be a more significant change affecting the entire reasoning effort system.

Please mention @roomote in a comment indicating which approach you'd prefer, and I'll proceed with the implementation.
