After switching models inside an existing conversation, the app appears to lose or ignore the previous conversation context.

By the way the reason why I switched models was that the app first showed an error indicating that the gpt-5.5 model could not be found or was unavailable.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Switch the model from GPT-5.4 to GPT-5.5 using the model selector.

What is the expected behavior?

unexpected status 404 Not Found: Model not found gpt-5.5, url: https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses, cf-ray: a100a5f94fac33cf-NRT, request id: 00e5affc-1b5e-4a48-b845-d97a707b7af1

我发现找不到 gpt-5.5 好像是开启 fast 导致的

当然这也解释不了为什么上下文丢失
