Poem

🐰 I nudged the brain icon out the door,
K2.5 now hops across the floor,
Old names mapped to keep the line,
Small changes, tidy, all in time —
A carrot clap for code once more!

Marketing and Pricing Pages Check Complete ✅

I've thoroughly searched all marketing and pricing-related files for any references to the removed Kimi K2 Thinking model or the thinking toggle feature.

Files Checked

Marketing & Pricing Pages:

  • frontend/src/config/pricingConfig.tsx - No references
  • frontend/src/routes/about.tsx - No references
  • frontend/src/routes/pricing.tsx - No references
  • frontend/src/components/Marketing.tsx - References are correct (see below)

Documentation:

  • docs/support-faq.md - References are correct (see below)
  • docs/conversations-api-implementation.md - Technical docs, no user-facing content

Found References (All Correct!)

  1. Marketing.tsx (Line 33): Shows "Kimi K2, Kimi K2.5" as the model labels

    • ✅ This is accurate and matches the current available models
  2. support-faq.md (Line 218): Mentions "Kimi K2 (reasoning)" in the model list

    • ✅ This correctly refers to the kimi-k2-5 model (not the removed kimi-k2-thinking)

Conclusion

No changes needed! 🎉

The marketing and pricing pages are already correct. All references use the proper model names:

  • "Kimi K2" and "Kimi K2.5" for marketing purposes
  • No mentions of "Kimi K2 Thinking" (the removed model)
  • No mentions of the thinking toggle feature

The PR successfully removed the deprecated model from the codebase while keeping the marketing materials accurate.

Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

This PR successfully removes the kimi-k2-thinking model and its associated thinking toggle functionality from the UI. The changes span three main areas:

Key Changes:

  • Removed kimi-k2-thinking from MODEL_CONFIG in ModelSelector
  • Removed the "Reasoning" category and reasoning_on/reasoning_off from CATEGORY_MODELS
  • Removed thinking toggle buttons with Brain icon from UnifiedChat (both desktop and mobile views)
  • Added backwards compatibility alias mapping kimi-k2-thinkingkimi-k2-5 in utils.ts
  • Cleaned up unused Brain icon imports from ModelSelector and UnifiedChat

Incomplete Cleanup:
The PR successfully removes all UI components and user-facing functionality, but leaves behind unused state management code. The thinkingEnabled state variable and setThinkingEnabled setter are still defined in LocalStateContext.tsx and LocalStateContextDef.ts but are no longer referenced anywhere in the codebase. These should be removed to complete the cleanup.

Confidence Score: 4/5

  • Safe to merge with minor cleanup needed for unused state management code
  • The PR successfully removes all user-facing thinking toggle functionality and model references. Backwards compatibility is maintained. The only issue is incomplete cleanup of state management properties that are no longer used, which doesn't affect functionality but leaves dead code.
  • Pay attention to frontend/src/state/LocalStateContext.tsx and frontend/src/state/LocalStateContextDef.ts - they contain unused state that should be removed

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
frontend/src/components/ModelSelector.tsx Removed kimi-k2-thinking model config, reasoning category, and thinking toggle logic. All changes are clean and complete.
frontend/src/components/UnifiedChat.tsx Removed two thinking toggle button components and Brain icon import. Clean removal with no loose ends.
frontend/src/utils/utils.ts Added backwards compatibility alias for kimi-k2-thinking → kimi-k2-5. Ensures existing data still works.
frontend/src/state/LocalStateContext.tsx Still contains unused thinkingEnabled state and setter function that should be removed as part of cleanup.
frontend/src/state/LocalStateContextDef.ts Still defines thinkingEnabled and setThinkingEnabled in type definition that should be removed as part of cleanup.

@claude i never said to replace kimi-k2 with kimi-k2.5

I told you to remove the "reasoning on" thinking brain logic completely. And as a model alias fall back to kimi-k2. but it should be the primary coding model. Not replacing the reasoning on logic.

Fixing the implementation

I apologize for the misunderstanding. Let me clarify what I need to do:

Current Understanding

From your feedback, I need to:

  1. ✅ Keep kimi-k2-thinking removed from MODEL_CONFIG (done)
  2. ✅ Keep Brain toggle buttons removed (done)
  3. Fix: Change alias to map kimi-k2-thinkingkimi-k2 (NOT kimi-k2-5)
  4. Fix: Revert the reasoning_on change - don't replace it with kimi-k2-5
  5. ❓ Make kimi-k2 the "primary coding model"

Question

Looking at the original code, there is no kimi-k2 model in MODEL_CONFIG - only kimi-k2-thinking (removed) and kimi-k2-5 (exists).

Should I:

  • Option A: Rename kimi-k2-5 to kimi-k2 (change the model ID and display name)?
  • Option B: The alias should point to kimi-k2-5 but we call it "kimi-k2" for display purposes?
  • Option C: Something else?

Also, for the reasoning_on category - should I:

  • Option A: Revert it back to kimi-k2-thinking (but we removed this model)?
  • Option B: Remove the reasoning category entirely?
  • Option C: Point it to a different model like deepseek-r1-0528?

Let me know and I'll fix it right away!

@claude simply remove kimi k2 everywhere, remove the reasoning on logic everywhere, and only keep the simple alias in the method that exists in frontend/src/utils/utils.ts

You're over thinking it. the kimi k2 thinking model is gone. remove it.

  • Removed reasoning category from CATEGORY_INFO
  • Removed thinking sync useEffect
  • Removed reasoning checks from getCurrentCategory()
  • Simplified handleCategorySelect() to remove reasoning logic
  • Removed "reasoning" from category list in dropdown
  • Removed reasoning checks from isActive calculation
  • Removed Brain icon import
  • Removed unused thinkingEnabled and setThinkingEnabled destructuring
  • Updated ModelCategory type to remove "reasoning"

utils.ts:

  • Kept the backwards compatibility alias: kimi-k2-thinkingkimi-k2-5

✅ Format passed
✅ Lint passed (only pre-existing warnings)
✅ Build succeeded
✅ All tests passed
✅ Pre-commit hooks passed
✅ Changes committed and pushed

- Removed reasoning category from CATEGORY_INFO
- Removed thinking sync useEffect
- Removed reasoning checks from getCurrentCategory()
- Simplified handleCategorySelect() to remove reasoning logic
