Do not infer vision from the model name.Model discovery supplies identity and capacities. The operator owns the modality claim, and the endpoint remains the final capability test.
Declare the narrowest owner.
models[].inputChanges only the exact route entry that has been verified.
defaultInputBroadens the provider fallback. Use only when the provider contract covers all models.

The rc.2 editor keeps model drafts structurally open, so an unrelated visible edit is intended to preserve hidden fields such as input. Removing a row, resetting the model array, or replacing the provider still removes its data deliberately.
Six proof gates.
- 01The resolved profile names the exact provider and model.
- 02The model declares both text and image after resolution.
- 03A disposable UI edit preserves the hidden field.
- 04Reload shows the same model row and selected route.
- 05A fresh Session accepts one synthetic small image.
- 06The intended endpoint receives and accepts that request.
A YAML write is not a capability test.
If the provider rejects the image, remove the incorrect claim. Do not disable attachment validation or broaden every model through defaultInput.
