v4.0.6 — Sora paused upstream; instant client-side refusal
Patch release from a kie.ai API-drift sweep (sitemap diff + live probes, 2026-06-11).
Fixed
- All 8 Sora tools failed with an opaque upstream error — kie.ai has paused its entire Sora 2 family (
500: This interface is temporarily pausedon every sora-2 slug), likely ahead of OpenAI's Sept 24, 2026 Sora API sunset. Registry entries now carry apausedflag:generate_videorefuses them instantly with alternatives (no API call),list_modelsshows⏸ [PAUSED upstream — do not use], and Sora is de-recommended in the tool description and README. Entries retained in case kie un-pauses. (#18, closes #17)
Verified healthy in the same sweep (no changes needed)
gpt4o image, flux-kontext-pro/max, ideogram/v3-reframe, and the Kling 3.0 mapping — docs pages moved, APIs fine.
Coming next: v4.1.0 adds the 7 newly-launched kie models (HappyHorse 1.1, Kling 3 Turbo, Seedance 2 Mini, Grok Imagine 1.5 preview, OmniHuman 1.5, Nano Banana 2 Lite, Volcengine lip-sync).
