 # (2026-03-24) Version 1.16.1
 
 - (**Bugfix**) Fix compatibility with [async-openai](https://crates.io/crates/async-openai) 0.34.0 by populating the new `phase` field required for OpenAI Responses API message inputs. baibot does not currently distinguish between assistant `commentary` and `final_answer` turns, so using `None` preserves the previous behavior while remaining compatible with the updated crate.
