[Enhancement] New Cohere models are not validated in config.json

[sealad886]

Validations

• I believe this is a way to improve. I'll try to join the Continue Discord for questions
• I'm not able to find an open issue that requests the same enhancement

Problem

Cohere has released several updated versions of old models (i.e. Command-R, Command-Light, and Command-R Plus) plus their embedding and reranker models; they have also release their new command-r7b. I note that all of these are available for free via their API, and they integrate well without significant setup.

Continue's config.json doesn't validate anything except command-r and command-r-plus, so even the new updated version (command-r-plus-08-2024) wouldn't validate.

I note that you can still put these values, it just throws a warning error. If using AUTODETECT, only command-r and command-r-plus will be detected.

Solution

• Update config_schema.json to add in the additional models.
• Update models.ts for the GUI to have the right info
• Update cohere.ts with the added information
  This may also be a good spot to add in additional embedding and rerank models
