Release llm 0.36 — Access large language models from the command-line
  • New OpenAI models: gpt-6-sol for GPT-6 Sol and gpt-6-luna for GPT-6 Luna. #1702
  • Model plugins can now declare supports_conversation = False for models that only accept single-turn prompts. LLM raises llm.ConversationNotSupported when these models receive assistant or tool history, and llm chat rejects them before starting a session. See Models that do not support conversations. The first plugin to use this is llm-typesafe. #1692
  • Reasoning traces in the Markdown output of llm logs are now wrapped in <details><summary> tags. #1701

Plus bug fixes from five new contributors.
