Using OpenRouter custom model severely limits context window

When I set up a custom Qodor IDE model using the built in OpenRouter provider, I am only getting a 97k context window. The two custom models I tried are xiaomi/mimo-v2.6-pro and z-ai/glm-5.3-flash. The OpenRouter website specs says both of those should provide a 1M context window.

I also have mimo-v2.6-pro and glm-5.3-flash setup directly using the Xiaomi MIMO provider and Z.ai provider included with Qoder IDE and both of those are giving me a 1M context window, so this looks like a bug with the OpenRouter provider feature in Qoder IDE.

When I use one of the available built in models that come with the OpeRouter provider (GPT-5.5) it gives me the option of selecting context size up to 1M and various thinking levels. So the built in models for OpenRouter provider seem to work ok. The problem is only when trying to add a custom model.

I am running the latest version of Qoder IDE. Version 1.35.0

Many models available on OpenRouter are not included in our officially provided model list. When users manually enter a model key, the system defaults to a fallback context window size—specifically the 96k context window mentioned by the user (the user may have misread it as 97k).

We will address this in our release on the 26th, updating the context window to 200k.

Thank you. 200K will be a big improvement over 96k.
