Summary

Updates our documentation to remove reference to Preview Features (which has been removed).

Details

The Preview Features setting is no longer in the settings panel, but we still have it in our documentation. This PR removes the final reference, except for where it is needed for enterprise (gemini-3.md).

Summary of Changes

Hello @jkcinouye, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on enhancing the accuracy and relevance of the documentation by removing outdated information. Specifically, it addresses the deprecation of "Preview Features" by eliminating all mentions and related instructions from the model documentation, ensuring users are presented with up-to-date guidance.

Highlights

  • Documentation Update: Removed all references to "Preview Features" from the docs/cli/model.md file, aligning the documentation with the current state of the application where this feature has been deprecated.
  • Model Table Refinement: Modified the model selection table in docs/cli/model.md to remove the "(if enabled)" qualifier for Gemini 3 models, reflecting their direct availability.
  • Section Removal: Eliminated the dedicated "Gemini 3 and preview features" section, including its associated note and instructions for enabling preview features, as these are no longer relevant.
Changelog
  • docs/cli/model.md
    • Removed the "Gemini 3 and preview features" section.
    • Updated the model selection table to remove "(if enabled)" from Gemini 3 model descriptions.
Activity
  • No review comments or activity recorded yet.

Code Review

This pull request updates the documentation to remove references to the 'Preview Features' setting, which has been removed from the product. The changes in docs/cli/model.md correctly remove the conditional availability of Gemini 3 models from the model selection table and delete the section that explained how to enable the now-defunct setting. The changes are consistent with the pull request's objective and appear to be accurate.
