v2.4.0

New models (Claude Opus 4.8, Gemini 3.5 Flash) plus a better local-model experience: browse a curated catalog of coding models, remove models, and see on-disk sizes — all from /model.

Added

• Claude Opus 4.8 — added to the Anthropic provider and set as the new
  default model. Pricing: $5 / $25 per 1M tokens (input / output), 1M context.
• Gemini 3.5 Flash (gemini-3.5-flash) — replaces the preview Flash in the
  Google provider list. Pricing: $1.50 / $9.00 per 1M tokens, 1M context.
• /model browse (Ollama) — a curated catalog of recommended local coding
  models (Qwen2.5 Coder, DeepSeek Coder V2, Llama 3.1, DeepSeek R1, …) with
  parameter sizes, rough VRAM, and an agent-mode suitability hint. Pick one to
  pull it. Mirrors the MCP/skills catalog pattern.
• /model rm <name> (Ollama) — remove a locally-installed model to reclaim
  disk, without leaving Codeep. Remote-server guard like /model pull.
• On-disk size in /model picker — the Ollama model list now shows each
  model's size on disk alongside the agent-mode hint.
• Native Ollama API (beta, opt-in) — set Ollama Native API (beta) → On
  in /settings to route Ollama through its native /api/chat endpoint instead
  of the OpenAI-compatible /v1 shim. Honors num_ctx (the model uses its
  full context window instead of Ollama's small default) and keep_alive
  (keeps the model resident, avoiding reload latency every turn). Tunable via
  ollamaKeepAlive (default 30m) and ollamaNumCtx (0 = auto-detect via
  /api/show). Off by default — existing transport unchanged unless you opt
  in. Verified against Ollama 0.24 (chat, streaming, usage, native tool calls);
  marked beta while it gets coverage across more models and longer sessions.
  Please report issues at https://github.com/VladoIvankovic/Codeep/issues —
  feedback decides when it becomes the default.

Notes

• Pricing tables (/cost, dashboard) updated so the new models bill at the
  right rates. Previous models (Opus 4.7 / 4.6, Flash preview) stay listed for
  back-compat. VS Code/Zed inherit the new catalog automatically over ACP; the
  native macOS / iOS apps get the same update via the shared CodeepCore catalog.
• /model browse and /model rm shell out to the local ollama binary, so
  they only run when Ollama is local (remote servers get an SSH hint instead).
