Added models had no web search: Codex's built-in one runs on OpenAI's side and
the bridge drops it from their tool list. Measured in a voice session on
11 Oct 2026: a model looked for a search tool ten times and ended the turn
with no answer. The bridge now tells added models two ready commands (ara.py:
search and read a page, standard library only, no key). Codex's own models
never see the note: their requests do not reach the bridge.
Spoken model names: a half-spoken word matches the start of a name part
("think" -> thinking, "obli" -> obliterated), and when one candidate is the
others minus extra words, the one without the unsaid suffix is picked
("Qwen 3.8 Obliterated" -> not the ":thinking" one).
