Failing expectation for the OAuth default model list so the catalog can pick up Grok 4.6 while keeping grok-4.5 as the session default. CL-5933
Register grok-4.6 next to the existing OAuth defaults so users can select it after Alt+A xAI login, while leaving grok-4.5 as the default. CL-5933

4.6 used ~1.3–2.8× wall time and more input tokens on every shared pass; the only hard miss was web-bait thrash.
