What changed
OpenAI reduced first-party pricing for the GPT-5.6 Sol family. The catalog still carries the old rates.

All three catalog entries — gpt-5.6-sol, gpt-5.6, and daybreak-blue-latest — carry identical stale values (gpt-5.6 has parent: "gpt-5.6-sol"; daybreak-blue-latest has fallback_models: ["openai.gpt-daybreak-blue-5.6-sol"]).
Note: input_cache_write_cost_per_mil_tokens (currently 6.25) is not listed on the OpenAI pricing page; left unchanged in the spec below. It may also need updating if OpenAI publishes a cache-write figure.
