Else check settings for default → call `findModel(provider, id)` → check if available (has API key)\n3. Else first from `getAvailableModels()`\n\nThe `findModel` function returns `{ model, error }`. For SDK export, we might want a simpler signature.Options for SDK:\n\n**Option A: Keep current signature**```typescript\nfunction findModel(provider: string, modelId: string, agentDir?: string): { model: Model<any> | null; error: string | null };\n```**Option B: Simpler - just returns model or null**\n```typescript\nfunction findModel(provider: string, modelId: string, agentDir?: string): Model<any> | null;```\n\n**Option C: Throws on error**```typescript\nfunction findModel(provider: string, modelId: string, agentDir?: string): Model<any>;  // throws if not found\n```\n\nI think **Option B** is fine for SDK. Errors from loading models.json are edge cases - if the file is malformed, we can throw. For \"model not found\", just return null.\n\nActually, for the SDK, maybe we should rethink. The user of the SDK will likely:\n1. Know which model they want and construct it directly2. Or want to pick from available modelsFor case 1, they don't need findModel - they construct the Model object.\nFor case 2, they use `discoverAvailableModels()` and pick.`findModel` is useful for looking up by string ID (like from config or user input). But the signature could just be:```typescriptfunction findModel(provider: string, modelId: string, agentDir?: string): Model<any> | null;\n```\n\nReturns the model if found (in built-ins or models.json), null if not found. Throws if models.json is malformed (exceptional case).\n\n\nThe SDK's model discovery functions provide a clean, straightforward way to handle model selection. I'll outline the key methods for finding and selecting models programmatically. The core functions allow discovering all models, filtering to available models with valid API keys, and finding a specific model by provider and ID. This gives developers flexible options for model management in their applications.\n\nIn the session creation process, if no model is explicitly specified, the system will first attempt to use the default provider and model configuration. If that fails, it will then retrieve the first available model from the discovered set. Should no models be found, an error will be raised to prevent silent failures.\n\nThe potential complexity arises from the need to support custom model configurations and ensure robust model selection across different scenarios.",
