OpenAI
OpenAI model for coding and configurable reasoning. Its deprecated API snapshot retires December 11, 2026.
At a glance
API model ID: gpt-5
Capabilities & boundaries
Tool support requires the appropriate API integration; a supported tool is not automatically active in every chat.
The original GPT-5 family supports minimal, low, medium, and high, with medium as the documented default. Test minimal for narrowly defined tasks and compare higher effort on difficult work. Do not carry over GPT-5.1 or GPT-6 effort settings.
Unsupported settings: none, xhigh, max.

Original examples from EZ Ai Assist. Adapt these to your task and the features available in your workspace.
Workflow 01
Keep a code change bounded by observable behavior and tests.
Plan a refactor of this function using the supplied callers and tests. Identify responsibilities that can be separated without changing behavior, list the invariants that must remain true, and show a small sequence of edits. For each step, name the test that would catch a regression. Do not introduce new dependencies or assume unprovided callers behave a certain way.
Workflow 02
Turn a messy discussion into traceable decisions and open questions.
Read these meeting notes and extract agreed requirements, tentative ideas, rejected options, and unresolved questions into separate sections. Preserve who said what when names are provided and cite the note or timestamp for every requirement. Do not promote a suggestion into a decision. Finish with a short list of clarifications needed before implementation can begin.
Workflow 03
Compare the visible interface with a supplied definition of each metric.
Compare this dashboard screenshot with the metric definitions and sample records below. Identify inconsistent labels, calculations, units, or time windows that the evidence supports. Cite the visual region and data fields involved. Separate a likely display issue from a confirmed calculation error, and propose three reproducible checks before changing the dashboard.

Common questions
Yes. The API identifier is gpt-5 and the documented snapshot is gpt-5-2025-08-07. It is distinct from GPT-5.1, GPT-5.2, the GPT-5.6 family, and GPT-5 Pro; their limits, settings, and prices should not be substituted here.
OpenAI’s June 11, 2026 notice schedules gpt-5-2025-08-07 for shutdown on December 11, 2026 and recommends GPT-5.6 Sol. Test a migration with your real tasks before the deadline. App availability must be checked separately.
No. Minimal is the lowest documented effort for this original GPT-5 family; none is not listed. Medium is the documented default. Choose an effort explicitly when benchmarking a workflow and check actual token usage.
No. The model reference separately lists a 272,000-token maximum input inside a 400,000-token total context. Output and reasoning also consume the available context; the 128,000-token output ceiling is not an extra allowance beyond it.
No. Structured outputs can constrain the response shape, but facts and calculations still require validation. Provide a clear schema in an integration that supports it and independently check any result used to trigger actions.
Its native output is text, with text and image input. Image generation is a listed Responses tool and requires an integration. Native audio and video are not supported; EZ Ai Assist may expose a different set of tools.
