…nd adaptive effort envelope DTE series 2/5 (part of Zoo-Code-Org#1329). - ApiHandlerCreateMessageMetadata.reasoningEffort: per-request override channel - resolveEffectiveReasoningEffort: single shared resolution point (override > settings > model default) - AnthropicHandler: adaptive output_config.effort envelope in both requestParams branches (in-range only) - Task: setRuntimeThinkingEffort/getRuntimeThinkingEffort with in-memory apiConfiguration merge/restore, per-request metadata at all four createMessage sites, dispose() reset; never persisted
DTE series 2/5 — addresses the CodeRabbit review finding on Zoo-Code-Org#1338: when a task-local thinking-effort override is active, updateApiConfiguration() now re-captures the incoming profile's reasoningEffort as the restore value and re-applies the override on top of the new in-memory copy, so clearing the override restores the NEW profile value instead of the stale one. Additive: activation and clearing semantics are otherwise unchanged. Adds two regression tests (override active + profile switch restores new value; inactive updateApiConfiguration unchanged behavior).
DTE series 2/5 — addresses the CodeRabbit docstring-coverage warning on Zoo-Code-Org#1338 (33.33% < 80% across the functions touched by the diff): - AnthropicHandler.createMessage: documents the shared effective-effort resolution and the adaptive output_config.effort envelope (in-range only). - Task.dispose: documents centralized teardown incl. the transient task-local override reset. - Task.updateApiConfiguration: documents the override-preservation behavior (re-captured restore value + re-applied override on the new in-memory copy). Comment-only change: 30/30 patch lines and 10/10 branches unchanged; 317/317 tests and tsc --noEmit re-verified green.

In `@src/core/tools/NewTaskTool.ts`:
- Around line 67-83: Update the capability normalization in the NewTaskTool flow
around modelCapabilities so a true supportsReasoningEffort value becomes
NEW_TASK_EFFORT_LEVELS, while false and undefined remain unsupported. Reuse the
normalized levels consistently for thinking_effort validation,
supportedThinkingEfforts, and askEffortSupported.
In `@src/core/webview/ClineProvider.ts`:
- Around line 3870-3875: Update NewTaskTool.execute() so thinking_effort is
validated against the target mode’s resolved child model after the mode switch,
then revalidate it immediately before child.setRuntimeThinkingEffort(). Preserve
valid effort behavior and reject or handle levels unsupported by the child
model. Add a regression test covering a target mode whose model supports
different effort levels.
In `@webview-ui/src/components/chat/ChatView.tsx`:
- Around line 1803-1815: Normalize newTaskAskEffort during the ask prefill flow
by replacing unsupported or unset values with the first entry in
newTaskAskSupportedEfforts, so component state matches the displayed selection.
Simplify the Thinking effort select to bind directly to the normalized state and
preserve its change handler. Add focused tests covering unchanged unsupported
prefills, posted thinkingEffort, and getStateToPostToWebview() behavior for
true, false, and unset defaults.
