Web Clipper error with o4-mini as interpreter

Help
1

What I’m trying to do

Use OpenAI’s o4-mini as the interpreter in Web Clipper, but I get this error:

Error

With o4-mini, I get this error: Unsupported value: 'temperature' does not support 0.7 with this model. Only the default (1) value is supported."

If I use GPT 4.1, the interpreter works fine without error. Same with Gemini 2.5 Flash and Pro and Claude Sonnet 4.

Things I have tried

I’ve looked for a setting in Web Clipper and in Obsidian to control the temperature parameter but cannot find it. I’ve searched this forum.

Questions

Is there a parameter setting somewhere in a config file I can adjust, or somewhere in the UI I may be overlooking?
Or is this perhaps something that cannot be adjusted/fixed?

same issue with GPT 5 Mini:

OpenAI error: {
“error”: {
“message”: “Unsupported value: ‘temperature’ does not support 0.7 with this model. Only the default (1) value is supported.”,
“type”: “invalid_request_error”,
“param”: “temperature”,
“code”: “unsupported_value”
}
}

Same for me with GPT-5-mini.

Maybe I’ll move this over to the bug channel, since there doesn’t seem to be answers here.

I filed an issue in the GitHub repo BUG: Clipper fails - reports presence of incorrect temperature parameter · Issue #566 · obsidianmd/obsidian-clipper · GitHub if anyone wants to track there.
