Your phone's tools reach the model, and paid models fall back to free ones

We found all of this while testing the Android app against the live service.

Tools from the phone

The app sends the tools the phone can run with every message. In a chat without a container, web search or delegation, the server took its plain text path and gave the model no tools at all. It now does that only when the client brings none. Direct Gemini models and the CLI engines still cannot call a device's tools, and the chat now says so. ZeroLog Free reported the context of its smallest model, 32,768 tokens, while the tool definitions alone take about 28,000, so every turn with tools stopped. It now routes such turns only to free models with room for them.

Paid models fall back

A paid model without credit used to fail after one fallback model, which drew on the same empty pool. The last step is now ZeroLog Free, and the chat names the free model that answered. Chats that carry a credential never fall back to a free model, because free models do not promise zero data retention. Details are in Choosing a model.

A frozen container and a short outage

At 20:12 CEST a build we ran filled the server's system disk. The disk guard froze one user container, as designed, but it kept that list only in memory, and three restarts later nothing resumed it. It stood still for about 75 minutes until we unpaused it by hand. The guard now keeps the list on disk. One restart failed because the network storage lost in this afternoon's power cut blocked the service, so ZeroLog was unreachable from 20:17 to about 20:19 CEST. It now starts without that storage, and app builds no longer run on the system disk.
