+# Models List Consolidation Plan
+
+## Problem
+Currently, the models list is duplicated in 9 places:
+- 8 command preferences (summarize, rewrite, refine, custom, execute, preview, transform, transform_preview)
+- 1 global preferences section
+
+This makes adding/removing models tedious and error-prone.
+
+## Proposed Solution: Build Script Approach
+
+### 1. Create Models Definition File
+```javascript
+// scripts/models.js
+const MODELS_LIST = [
+  { "title": "Follow global model", "value": "global" },
+  { "title": "GPT-4o", "value": "gpt-4o" },
+  { "title": "GPT-4o mini", "value": "gpt-4o-mini" },
+  { "title": "GPT-4.1", "value": "gpt-4.1" },
+  { "title": "GPT-4.1 mini", "value": "gpt-4.1-mini" },
+  { "title": "GPT-4.1 nano", "value": "gpt-4.1-nano" },
+  { "title": "o1", "value": "o1" },
+  { "title": "o1-mini", "value": "o1-mini" },
+  { "title": "o1-pro", "value": "o1-pro" },
+  { "title": "o3", "value": "o3" },
+  { "title": "o3-mini", "value": "o3-mini" },
+  { "title": "o4-mini", "value": "o4-mini" }
+];
+
+const GLOBAL_MODELS_LIST = MODELS_LIST.slice(1); // Remove "Follow global model" for global preferences
+
+module.exports = { MODELS_LIST, GLOBAL_MODELS_LIST };
+```
+
+### 2. Create Package Template
+```json
+// package.template.json
+{
+  "commands": [
+    {
+      "name": "summarize",
+      "preferences": [
+        {
+          "name": "model_summarize",
+          "data": "{{COMMAND_MODELS_LIST}}"
+        }
+      ]
+    }
+  ],
+  "preferences": [
+    {
+      "name": "model",
+      "data": "{{GLOBAL_MODELS_LIST}}"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Build Script
+```javascript
+// scripts/build-package.js
+const fs = require('fs');
+const { MODELS_LIST, GLOBAL_MODELS_LIST } = require('./models');
+
+const template = require('../package.template.json');
+let packageContent = JSON.stringify(template, null, 2);
+
+packageContent = packageContent.replace(/"{{COMMAND_MODELS_LIST}}"/g, JSON.stringify(MODELS_LIST, null, 8));
+packageContent = packageContent.replace(/"{{GLOBAL_MODELS_LIST}}"/g, JSON.stringify(GLOBAL_MODELS_LIST, null, 8));
+
+fs.writeFileSync('package.json', packageContent);
+```
+
+### 4. Update Build Process
+Add to package.json scripts:
+```json
+{
+  "scripts": {
+    "prebuild": "node scripts/build-package.js",
+    "build": "ray build -e dist",
+    "predev": "node scripts/build-package.js",
+    "dev": "ray develop"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Benefits
+- ✅ Single source of truth for models list
+- ✅ Add/remove models in one place
+- ✅ Automatic consistency across all commands
+- ✅ No manual JSON duplication
+- ✅ Prevents copy-paste errors
+
+## Implementation Steps
+1. Create `scripts/models.js` with models definition
+2. Create `package.template.json` with placeholders
+3. Create `scripts/build-package.js` build script
+4. Update npm scripts to run build-package before build/dev
+5. Test thoroughly in development mode
+6. Update documentation
+
+## Related to
+- **Parent PR**: #19485 (Update to latest OpenAI models and pricing)
+- **Suggested by**: @one-data-cookie
+- **Goal**: Make future model maintenance much easier
+
+## Next Steps
+This enhancement will be implemented after PR #19485 is merged to avoid conflicts and keep changes focused.
