Interpreted documentation change

What the vendor announced

The evidence indicates a changelog entry for v5.6.0 of the OpenAI Node SDK, including features and fixes, but the current text states that “The registry no longer lists this version.” This suggests a documentation or registry listing change rather than an API, auth, or pricing-quota policy change. There is no explicit deadline or replacement endpoint provided. The appropriate classification is informational with conservative confidence.

The registry no longer lists this version.
