The protocol fragmentation in the large model ecosystem is being smoothed out by open-source efforts. On June 1st, the open-source OpenAI Responses API gateway GodeX officially released version 1.1.0. This update not only switches the default model to the latest MiniMax-M3 but also deeply adapts to multimodal understanding and reasoning control, and realizes the reconstruction of Zhipu's native online search results, providing developers with a more smooth local unified gateway solution.

As an open-source gateway tool, GodeX's core responsibility is to simplify complexity. It allows Codex, CLI tools, and developer agents to seamlessly call model services provided by DeepSeek, MiniMax, Zhipu, Xiaomi, etc., which only provide Chat Completions API, through a single " /v1/responses" protocol compatible with OpenAI. The release of this new version means that developers no longer have to worry about protocol differences among different upstream channels.

In this update, the adaptation of MiniMax-M3 is the biggest highlight. This is not just a simple name change. GodeX has supplemented the multimodal input capability, perfectly supporting image and video understanding. Image inputs in the Responses protocol are automatically converted into MiniMax image URLs, video files are mapped into video URLs, and the system can intelligently identify and reject non-video extensions to avoid routing errors. In addition, the new version aligns the reasoning output of MiniMax-M3 to the reasoning_content path, consistent with DeepSeek and Zhipu, making the reconstructed reasoning text more natural in streaming scenarios.

Regarding the balance between budget and efficiency in actual development, the new version also introduces the ability to control thinking behavior through the thinking parameter. For example, in the video understanding scenario, if strong thinking mode is enabled, the model may consume a lot of output budget on the reasoning process. By turning off the thinking control through GodeX, developers can prioritize verifying the video understanding path to ensure efficient output of visible answers.

In addition to the deep restructuring of MiniMax, the Zhipu provider also received significant enhancement in this update. When Zhipu returns native web_search online search results, GodeX can reconstruct them into structured Responses web_search_call output. This change makes the experience more friendly for scenarios that require auditing search sources, displaying search calls, or performing secondary processing of data in Agents. Currently, the v1.1.0 version has synchronized more complete Codex integration documentation and configuration instructions, and developers can easily complete rapid deployment via npm or Docker.
