quora/model-deprecation-tracker is a public GitHub repository. The GitHub API, fetched on October 20, 2026, describes it as tracking AI model deprecation schedules across OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, Bedrock, and Gemini. That response has license set to null. pushed_at on that response is 2026-10-19T19:11:16Z.
The README on the master branch, fetched the same day, says it tracks OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, AWS Bedrock, and Gemini, and links each provider's deprecation page. It says to download deprecations.ics for reminders 7 and 30 days before a shutdown. The schedule table is marked Last updated: 2026-10-19 and has columns for model, model id, status, deprecated, shutdown, and replacement.
The README documents Slack alerts through a SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL secret, sent 7 days and 1 day before a shutdown. It says Anthropic Slack alerts are disabled by default because Bedrock dates are used for those alerts, while Anthropic rows stay in the tracker, the calendar, and the README. Setup is pip install -r requirements.txt and python main.py. The README does not document a public HTTP API.

Where it lives
A GitHub repo you run locally. The README table is the schedule. Last updated line: 2026-10-19.
A public website. The same facts are HTML pages and static files.
Providers named in the README
OpenAI, Anthropic, Vertex AI, AWS Bedrock, and Gemini.
The providers in this build are listed at the top of this page.
Files
deprecations.ics in the repo, with 7-day and 30-day reminders. No public HTTP API is documented in the README. GitHub reports no license.
Static files, no API key: /data/models.json, /data/deprecations.csv, /data/changelog.json, /dataset/sunsetdiff.json, /dataset/sunsetdiff.csv, /api/v1/, /feed.xml, and /deadlines.ics. License CC BY 4.0. Publisher: SunsetDiff.
Migration detail
The README table has a replacement column. It does not document price, context, or code diffs.
When both models are in the dataset, a migration page shows input, output, and cached price per 1M tokens, an example monthly cost, context window, max output, capability fields that differ, API changes with a source link, before/after code in Python, TypeScript, and curl, and a checklist. Empty cells say Not published.
Alerts and scan
Optional Slack webhook, 7 days and 1 day out. Anthropic Slack alerts are off unless configured.
The scan page gives a ripgrep pattern for retiring model ids. It runs on your machine. The page does not upload a repository.
