Rumor: 'GPT-6 Sol Pro' and 'GPT-6 Luna Pro' identifiers surface on OpenRouter

New identifiers — openai/gpt-6-sol-pro and openai/gpt-6-luna-pro — appeared in OpenRouter’s catalog within the last day, alongside the base Sol and Luna slugs that launched September 22. pricepertoken.com’s New Models Today tracker lists all four, each timestamped “OpenRouter · 9h ago”, and OpenRouter’s own GPT Sol Latest page names “GPT-6 Luna Pro, GPT-6 Luna, GPT-6 Sol Pro” among OpenAI’s text models.

UPDATE 2026-09-23 (morning): confirmed — but as routing conventions, not new models. OpenRouter’s own GPT-6 Migration Guide now officially documents a “pro reasoning” variant for every tier of the GPT-6 family (Astra, Sol, Luna): “Pro reasoning is selected with reasoning.mode: “pro” on a standard slug or by using the -pro slug, the same as the GPT-5.6 family.” So the -pro slugs are real, supported routes to the same models with higher-effort reasoning — at GPT-5.6-era precedent, identical per-token rates, more cost per task. The leak pattern matched the pre-Sol/Luna launch, but this time it signaled routing, not a launch.
