Gemini routes flash workloads to gemini-3.5-flash on stable, behind an experiment flag
What this changes for operators
- Stable v0.46.0 began moving flash workloads to gemini-3.5-flash, gated by an experiment flag and auth-type access logic (so the same binary can route different users to different models). Anyone with cost or eval assumptions pinned to the old flash should re-baseline.
