+## [0.8.3] - 2026-06-04
+
+A plan-mode reliability patch for the hosted gateway and other non-Anthropic models. Ask the `plan` agent to plan something benign — *"plan a feature to add a verify-output button"* — on `altimate-backend/altimate-default` (GPT-5.x) and it could refuse outright with *"I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request."* This release fixes the refusal at its source, hardens the fix against prompt-injection, and rewrites a warning that was misdiagnosing the symptom.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Plan mode no longer refuses benign requests on `altimate-default` and other non-Anthropic models.** The root cause was *how* altimate-code delivers its own plan instructions: a `<system-reminder>`-wrapped block attached as user-role text. Claude is trained to read that tag as authoritative system guidance, but GPT-5.x, Gemini, and other non-Anthropic models pattern-matched the same block — carrying `STRICTLY FORBIDDEN` / `ZERO exceptions` / `MUST` language — as a **prompt-injection attempt** and declined, returning *"I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request."* for ordinary developer tasks. altimate-code now **hoists those self-injected reminders into proper `role:"system"` messages** for non-Anthropic models, so they arrive as instructions rather than suspect user input; Anthropic models are unchanged. The hoist is scoped by **provenance** to altimate-code's own reminder parts — user-supplied files, MCP-resource bodies, and `data:`-URL content can never gain system-role priority, even when they begin with `<system-reminder>`. Gateway models are routed by `model.family` (via a shared `familyVendor` classifier) so a Claude- or Gemini-backed gateway model lands on the right base prompt instead of an Anthropic-style fallback. (#887, #888)
+- **The "plan agent used no tools" warning is accurate — and no longer false-fires.** Previously the warning blamed the model's *tool-use capability* (misleading — these models are fully tool-capable) and could fire on the final text-only step of a **successful** multi-step plan session, making a working session look broken. The trip-wire now scans the conversation history for prior tool calls, so a session that already explored the codebase isn't flagged. When it does fire, the copy describes the observed symptom only ("stopped without calling any tools"), lists the likely causes, and offers concrete recoveries — ask it to investigate first, rephrase, or, if it keeps refusing, `/model` to a tier more eager to explore. The plan agent is also now instructed to **read or search the codebase before drafting** any plan, with an explicit escape hatch for trivial, fully-specified changes. See [Plan mode](https://docs.altimate.sh/data-engineering/agent-modes/#plan) and [Troubleshooting](https://docs.altimate.sh/reference/troubleshooting/). (#888)

 ## [0.8.2] - 2026-06-03
 
 A small correctness patch. The dbt PR reviewer's deterministic engine never required an altimate API key — but two tool descriptions said it did, which could push the reviewer into lint-only mode and send users chasing a key they don't need. This release corrects that and documents what "lint-only" actually means.
