Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the model-selection behavior in Codex with the reported GPT 5.6 sol high setting and compare the model it claims to use. Done requires confirming whether it incorrectly identifies itself as 5.5 mini and establishing the expected model and limit behavior.
