Deprecations
Retirement dates recorded in the catalogue, with the capabilities a named successor preserves or loses. Direct API and partner-platform schedules can differ: check the endpoint's notice before migrating. An absent date does not establish continued availability. Public quality evidence is LMArena; unrated stays unrated.
As of 2026-11-05: 4 scheduled, 0 distant, 12 imminent. Confirmed vs earliest-possible render differently when a record marks the claim. No accounts, no CLI, no “switch with us”.
