📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds Gemini 3.8 Flash model metadata, restricted thinking-level types, Interactions adapter typing, example and documentation updates, and tests for tools, modalities, video routing, and streaming. ChangesGemini 3.8 Flash support
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Gemini 3.8 Flash is exposed with agentic-video support and broad thinking options, which can cause unsupported requests or invalid provider parameters at runtime. The PR is not merge-ready until agentic-video support is verified or removed and direct adapter options are constrained to the model’s supported thinking levels. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

💡 Result:
As of September 2, 2026, the Gemini API supports robust video understanding and agentic workflows across its 3.x model series [1][2][3]. While Gemini 3.6 Flash is the current stable, generally available (GA) model for these tasks [4][5], developer community discussion references a Gemini 3.7 Flash model that has been noted for significant improvements in coding accuracy and planning performance [6]. Video Understanding Capabilities: The Gemini API processes video by sampling input at a default rate of 1 frame per second (FPS) and extracting audio at 1Kbps [1][7]. Key features include: - Granular Control: Developers can use the media_resolution parameter (low, medium, high, or ultra_high) to balance token usage, latency, and the model's ability to interpret fine visual details [7][8]. - Timestamp Referencing: Models can identify and refer to specific moments in a video using the MM:SS format [1][9]. - Processing Best Practices: For optimal results, use one video per prompt request and place text prompts after the video content [1][7]. Note that rapid motion or quick scene changes may require slower frame rates or manual adjustment, as the 1 FPS default may miss certain details [1]. Agentic and Reasoning Features: Gemini 3.x models are designed for the agentic era, supporting complex multi-step workflows, code execution, and computer use [2][3][10]. - Thinking Levels: Developers can configure the depth of reasoning using the thinking_config parameter (minimal, low, medium, or high), which adjusts latency and cost based on the complexity of the task [11][8]. - Computer Use: Advanced agentic features, including streamlined actions with intents, allow models to operate in browser, mobile, and desktop environments [10]. - Optimization: Features such as Batch API, Flex inference (offering 50% cost savings for non-urgent tasks), and context caching are available to manage the performance and cost of agentic loops [12][2][3]. For the most up-to-date information on model availability and features, please refer to the official Gemini API model documentation and changelog [4][5].

There is no publicly available information or official documentation confirming the existence of Gemini 3.7 Flash or Gemini 3.8 Flash as of September 2, 2026. Current official Google developer documentation references Gemini 3.6 Flash as a supported model for tasks such as video understanding and interactions [1]. Regarding agentic capabilities, Google's Gemini models are designed with multimodal processing and integration features, such as granular control over vision processing via the media_resolution parameter introduced in the Gemini 3 series, which supports complex developer use cases [1].

Restrict agentic_video to models supported by Gemini.
GEMINI_3_8_FLASH advertises this capability, and GeminiTextAdapter.chatStream sends processing: 'agentic' videos to interactions.create. Google’s documentation lists only Gemini 3.7 Flash, 3.6 Flash, and 3.5 Flash Lite for agentic processing. Remove this capability and its 3.8 routing test, or add it only when Google documents support.

🎯 Changes
Adds
gemini-3.8-flashto the Gemini adapter’s model metadata and type maps, with multimodal input, built-in tools, thinking, structured output, caching, and agentic video support.Thinking levels are limited to low, medium, and high. The Interactions adapter derives its thinking levels from the shared chat-model metadata.
The React chat examples now list 3.8 Flash and use it as the default Gemini model for structured output. Includes updated docs and a minor changeset.
Pricing uses the current promotional rates: $0.75 input, $0.075 cached input, and $3.75 output per million tokens, through December 31, 2026.
Sources: model card, API documentation, and pricing.
Validation:
pnpm run test:prand all three focused Gemini 3.8 E2E tests pass. The full E2E run had one failure in the Bedrock multi-turn structured-output test.✅ Checklist
