https://factory.strongdm.ai/weather-report What models we're running today, how they're configured, and what role each one plays in the factory. en-us Wed, 18 Mar 2026 20:11:29 GMT https://factory.strongdm.ai/weather-report weather-report-2026-03-12 Thu, 12 Mar 2026 12:00:00 GMT gpt-5.4 has been formally adopted for planning and architectural critique. It replaces gpt-5.2 in our Sprint Planning consensus pair and Architectural Critique. Gemini can improve consensus in some cases for sprint planning. We're continuing to evaluate gpt-5.4 for implementation tasks but keeping gpt-5.3-codex as our default implementation model for now. https://factory.strongdm.ai/weather-report weather-report-2026-02-23 Mon, 23 Feb 2026 12:00:00 GMT No specific changes in defaults, but please note for anyone evaluating Gemini 3.1, the gemini-3.1-pro-preview-customtools may significantly outperform gemini-3.1-pro-preview depending on your harness. We've switched to gpt-realtime-1.5 for our internal use cases but aren't officially defaulting to it yet. Very happy with Sonnet 4.6, it may overtake Opus for some of our everyday use cases. https://factory.strongdm.ai/weather-report weather-report-2026-02-13 Fri, 13 Feb 2026 12:00:00 GMT Happy with gpt-5.3-codex-spark. gpt-5.3-codex continues to be our preferred default implementation model with critiques and suggestions from Opus. Modified: Sprint Planning. Added: UX Ideation, Agentic dialogues, Voice (interactive). https://factory.strongdm.ai/weather-report weather-report-2026-02-06 Fri, 06 Feb 2026 12:00:00 GMT New models this week. We're very happy with gpt-5.3-codex. No problems with Opus 4.6 so far.
