Boundary
This record represents the GPT-5.1 release whose API page identifies gpt-5.1-2025-11-13 as the fixed snapshot behind the gpt-5.1 alias; the API deprecation page carries no retirement entry for this base line as of review, while its chat-latest and codex variant endpoints shut down in July and August 2026. ChatGPT, the retired 5.1 chat and codex variants, the GPT-5.1 Mini/Nano siblings, later GPT releases, fine-tuned derivatives, and the OpenAI API platform itself are separate service, application, or model boundaries.
