OpenAI models: Astra, GPT-6 Sol, Luna, and GPT-6.1 Sol.

Compare existing Astra and image-generation routes with the newer GPT names shown on Floatboat’s pricing page. Model generation, runtime ID, and account access are separate checks.

Astra is the OpenAI route for high-stakes reasoning in the client.

GPT-6 Astra is selectable for chat, GPT-Image-2 is available through the drawing Combo, and code-specialized capacity is configured without a main-picker entry.

  • Flagship reasoning

    Live role

    Astra handles complex instructions, decisions, and agent orchestration.

  • Reasons before execution

    Work style

    Best where the cost of a weak plan is high.

  • Delivered through a Combo

    Visual lane

    GPT-Image-2 produces images rather than chat output.

  • Configuration and client access

    Status discipline

    The older GPT-5.6 Sol/Terra and GPT-5.3 Codex configuration records are separate from newer GPT-6 Sol/Luna pricing listings; check the current menu.

Do not treat every GPT model as interchangeable.

OpenAI entries span recorded chat, code, and image routes as well as newer public listings. Compare their stated access status and purpose individually; a pricing-page name does not establish the same client entry or execution path for every model.

GPT-6 Luna

Pricing-page listing

The pricing page names this GPT-6 variant. Treat it separately from GPT-5.6 Sol/Terra configuration records and check the account’s model menu before planning a workflow.

GPT-6.1 Sol

Pricing-page listing

Floatboat’s pricing page lists GPT-6.1 Sol. Confirm the current client entry, exact runtime ID, and account eligibility before building a workflow around it.

Use Cases for OpenAI Models

Product decisions, agent orchestration, and image production need different inputs and review criteria. Compare project constraints with visual briefs and tool permissions, then match each task to its actual OpenAI model or drawing entry point.

Complex product decision

A difficult product decision often contains conflicting requirements and constraints that cannot all be relaxed. Compare candidate options against explicit criteria, separating facts from assumptions and choices requiring confirmation. The decision brief should give the team a reasoned direction and a clear list of unresolved questions.

Agent orchestration

Agent orchestration needs a multistep objective, available tools, dependencies, and approval rules. Map instruction priority and tool results to the actions that may follow, with verification at each stage. Describe inputs, outputs, and failure handling so the plan can be reviewed before execution begins.

Image from a creative brief

Image work begins with intended use, visual content, dimensions, supplied brand assets, and revision requirements. Choose the appropriate drawing workflow, compare previews against the brief, and revise the mismatches. Deliver the visual assets with concrete revision notes rather than treating the first generated image as the final result.

Design recovery after a tool failure

A multistep agent task needs a clear response when a tool returns an error or incomplete evidence. Supply the intended action, observed result, and approval rules, then compare retry, investigation, and stop conditions. The recovery plan should preserve task state and human decisions instead of allowing an unsuccessful call to trigger an unbounded sequence of actions.

One provider family, accurately separated by product surface.

Reasoning, agent execution, image generation, and prepared code capacity connect to different parts of Floatboat. Review those boundaries before assigning a task, particularly where an older configuration record does not establish the current default picker or drawing workflow.

Frontier reasoning

GPT-6 Astra is selectable for complex reasoning and broad instruction following.

Agent task execution

Astra is positioned for deep Agent orchestration and architecture-level work.

Image generation

GPT-Image-2 is live as the default high-quality model in `ai-image-drawing`.

Prepared code capacity

The older GPT-5.6 Sol/Terra and GPT-5.3 Codex entries are configuration records; newer GPT-6 Sol/Luna listings are separate.

Choose the available route, not only the model name.

Choose GPT-6 Astra when

  • The task needs strong reasoning before implementation.
  • You are coordinating several dependent Agent steps.
  • Instruction following and architectural judgment matter together.

Use another Floatboat route when

  • The deliverable is an image; open the drawing Combo.
  • You need faster routine processing; consider a Flash model.
  • Distinguish GPT-5.6 and Codex configuration records from the newer GPT-6 Sol/Luna pricing listings; check the precise client entry.

OpenAI FAQ

Which OpenAI model paths are available or configured in Floatboat?
The page includes Astra, GPT-Image-2, GPT-5.6 and Codex configuration records, plus GPT-6 Sol, GPT-6 Luna, and GPT-6.1 Sol now named on the pricing page. Their access status is shown separately.
What work is GPT-6 Astra intended for?
Astra is the live OpenAI option for flagship reasoning, complex instruction following, architecture decisions, and deep Agent orchestration.
Why is GPT Image 2 listed with text models?
It represents a different output lane—image generation—within the same broader workflow and project context.
What can GPT-Image-2 generate?
GPT-Image-2 is positioned for high-quality image generation, illustrations, cover artwork, and other visual deliverables.
What are GPT-5.3 Codex and Codex Spark for?
They are code-specialized evaluation profiles with configured 400K and 128K capacity, respectively.
Should a coding task and an image brief use the same OpenAI entry?
Choose by the required output and the entry supported in Floatboat. Repository work needs code execution and review context; image work needs a visual brief and an image-capable path. A shared provider name does not make these interfaces interchangeable.
Are GPT-6 Sol, GPT-6 Luna, and GPT-6.1 Sol listed by Floatboat?
Yes. All three names appear on the official pricing page checked on November 2, 2026. This confirms public listing, not the exact runtime IDs, plan eligibility, or exposure in every client.

Pick Astra for reasoning or GPT-Image-2 for visuals

Use GPT-6 Astra in chat for reasoning and GPT-Image-2 through the image Combo for visuals; other versions have separate records and public listings; check the current menu before choosing one.
