Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Gemini 3.8 Flash is registered across runtime and CLI paths, but requests may send deprecated sampling controls to the new model, and key provider and context-window behaviors lack effective regression coverage.

- Around line 489-492: Update the Gemini 3.8 Flash test around LLM and
get_context_window_size so it verifies the model-specific mapping rather than
the fallback value; use a seam or direct mapping assertion that produces a
result distinct from the default when the gemini-3.8-flash prefix is matched.
- Around line 370-371: Update the test around GeminiCompletion/LLM construction
so it does not leave an unused generate_content API mock while claiming to cover
a 404 model error. Either add a separate call-time test that invokes the
completion path and verifies propagation of the mocked 404, or rename and
simplify the existing test to cover only the ImportError initialization
contract.
- Around line 23-60: Add a mocked Gemini 3.8 request test covering
GeminiCompletion._prepare_generation_config() and asserting temperature, top_p,
and top_k are omitted from GenerateContentConfig, then update
_prepare_generation_config to omit those sampling fields for Gemini 3.x models
while preserving existing behavior for other models.

💡 Result:
For Gemini 3.x models, including Gemini 3.8 Flash, the sampling parameters temperature, top_p, and top_k are deprecated [1][2]. These parameters are ignored by the API, and supplying them in requests for these models is officially discouraged, as it may result in errors in future updates [1]. Google strongly recommends removing these parameters from your GenerateContentConfig and using the default settings, as Gemini 3's reasoning capabilities are specifically optimized for them [3][4][2]. Modifying these values, particularly setting the temperature below its default of 1.0, can lead to degraded performance or unexpected behaviors, such as looping, especially during complex reasoning or mathematical tasks [3][4]. If you are migrating existing code, you should strip temperature, top_p, and top_k from your generation_config or GenerateContentConfig definitions [1][2]. For controlling model output behavior in Gemini 3.x, you should rely on the default configuration and system instructions rather than traditional sampling parameter tuning [3][2].

Handle deprecated sampling parameters for Gemini 3.8.
GeminiCompletion._prepare_generation_config() forwards temperature, top_p, and top_k to GenerateContentConfig for every model. Google recommends removing these parameters for Gemini 3.x. Add a mocked Gemini 3.8 request test that asserts these fields are omitted, then update the provider to enforce this behavior.

Preserve coverage of API-level unsupported-model errors.
The new assertion fails during LLM(...) construction, so the mocked generate_content error is never consumed. The test no longer verifies that GeminiCompletion propagates a 404 from Gemini. Keep a separate call-time test, or remove the unused API mock and rename the test to match the initialization contract.

Make the context-window test prove the model-specific mapping.
GeminiCompletion.get_context_window_size() returns int(1048576 * CONTEXT_WINDOW_USAGE_RATIO) when no model prefix matches. That fallback is also 891289, so this assertion passes even if the new gemini-3.8-flash mapping is removed. Assert through a seam that distinguishes a matched prefix from the fallback, or test the mapping directly.

Summary
Adds first-class native Gemini support for
gemini-3.8-flashas requested in #7241.Previously, the model could be routed through fallback handling but was not fully registered across CrewAI's native Gemini model catalogs, context-window mappings, or CLI model selection.
Changes
gemini-3.8-flashto the Gemini model type definitions and model catalog.gemini/gemini-3.8-flashto the core CrewAI model catalog.gemini/gemini-3.8-flashto the CLI model catalog.Gemini 3.8 Flashto the interactive CLI model picker.gemini/gemini-3.8-flashgoogle/gemini-3.8-flashVerification
The relevant Google Gemini test suite passes:
The context-window test passes with CrewAI's existing 85% context-window usage ratio:
get_context_window_size(): 891,289 tokensNative provider detection was also verified for both supported model prefixes.
Testing Notes
The existing Gemini 3 Pro Preview coverage was preserved rather than replaced.
No unrelated Windows test-fixture changes were included in this PR.
