A dated record of one change, kept so the writing that cites it can be checked. Compiled from the sources listed below by the research run, not written for reading. The judgment lives in the issues that cite it, below.

2026-10-13-pi-coding-agent-sampling-overrides-can-vary-by-thinking-level-from-1-0

Sampling overrides can vary by thinking level from 1.0.2. models.json gains samplingParamsByThinkingLevel for per-thinking-level sampling overrides on OpenAI-compatible requests. A cost or behavior comparison can change through sampling configuration even if the provider/model stays fixed.

Channel: tagged-release. Half: capability. Date: 2026-10-04.

Operator consequence: Record thinking level and its sampling overrides with model/version when comparing outcomes. Use the released 1.0.2 contract rather than inferring first availability from where a changelog edit landed.
