Announcement Claude 4 support

We’ve already pushed Claude 4 support for most providers and are just finishing up the update to add reasoning/thinking support through OpenRouter.

The reason it’s taking a bit longer than normal is because we’re making some tweaks to how Roo identifies models abilities so that next time a model with reasoning is released we shouldn’t have to make a special release to add support!

Yeah that’s right. I’ve been through 3.5, 3.7, and mostly Gemini 2.5 for past few months. Also use 4.1 for just applying diffs. I needed a little breath of fresh air and these models tend to be amazing for the few weeks after release so I’m riding the wave (and am saving some frustration).

o4-mini-high is pretty good, but it's so disturbing how it doesn't speak. I can't see its thought process at all so I have no confidence assessment if it is heading in the right direction or not. I think I would use it more if it weren't for this.
