llm 0.36

The release of llm 0.36 introduces new OpenAI models gpt-6-sol and gpt-6-luna, and adds support for model plugins to declare that they do not support conversations via supports_conversation = False. When such models receive assistant or tool history, llm raises a ConversationNotSupported error and the chat interface rejects them before starting a session. Additional changes include wrapping reasoning traces in Markdown output with <details> tags and bug fixes from five contributors.
