fix(agent): run context compaction on the streaming path

Agent auto-enables a ContextManager whenever tools are present (auto_compact, threshold 0.8), and the non-streaming chat() path honours it by calling _apply_context_management between building the messages and issuing the request. start(stream=True) / iter_stream built the same messages and sent them unmodified, so a long session streamed its entire history to the model on every turn while the configured manager sat idle. The desktop's default agent has tools, so every streamed turn hit this once the conversation grew. Both streaming branches now call the same _apply_context_management the non-streaming path uses: the OpenAI branch on the built messages list (which the post-tool follow-up request also reuses), and the custom-LLM branch on the chat_history that is actually handed to get_response_stream. No new compaction machinery; context=False remains zero-overhead because the helper returns immediately when no manager is configured. The test stubs the transport, seeds 400 long messages (~160k estimated tokens against a 128k window) and asserts the message list that reaches the transport is bounded on both branches, plus a context=False control that pins the full history going out untouched. Removing either call makes the corresponding test fail. Closes #4714 Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <[email protected]>

SDK value: review in depth whether the change genuinely adds value to the SDK — never add features for the sake of adding them. It must strengthen the SDK (simpler, more user-friendly, robust, world-class, secure). If it does not clearly add value, request changes or recommend rejecting/closing rather than merging scope creep\n5. Do not bloat the Agent class with additional params — only if absolutely required; we already support many params.\n6.

-# Why this exists
-#
-# praisonai-agents has ~11,900 tests. Until this gate, CI executed 15 of them:
-# one smoke step in test-optimized.yml naming two files. Everything else was
-# collected by nobody.
-#
-# The cost of that showed up as two test modules that could not even be
-# IMPORTED -- they referenced symbols moved or replaced months earlier, so 19
-# tests silently contributed nothing while still appearing to exist. A failing
-# test is loud; a test that never collects is not.
-#
-# This job started as collection-only, because running the suite would have gone
-# red on arrival: 297 pre-existing failures nothing had been enforcing, and a job
-# that is red the day it lands teaches people to ignore it. Then a curated
-# green-set, ratcheted upward.
-#
-# Both are gone. The unit suite now runs in full and passes: 9373 tests, 0
-# failures. The `collect` job stays because it is the cheaper, stricter signal --
-# it cannot pass while a test file is unimportable, and it says so in 40s.

-# The mobile package's PLATFORM builds: a real iOS app and a real Android app.
-#
-# mobile.yml proves the crate type-checks for a phone (`cargo check` against
-# the two mobile targets). This proves the two generated platform projects,
-# src-tauri/gen/apple and src-tauri/gen/android, still turn that crate into an
-# installable app -- which is a different thing, and the thing that had never
-# happened: until #4673 neither project existed.
-#
-# What each job produces, and why that shape:
-#
-#   ios-simulator  -- an UNSIGNED arm64 simulator .app. A device build needs
-#                     an Apple Developer Team and a signing identity, which are
-#                     the maintainer's and not in this repo (bundle.iOS.
-#                     developmentTeam is unset in tauri.conf.json). A simulator
-#                     build needs neither, so it is the build that can run on
-#                     every PR. It is not decoration: it links the Rust
-#                     staticlib into the Xcode target, packages the webview
-#                     into the bundle and exercises Info.plist, i.e. every step
-#                     short of the certificate.
-#   android-apk    -- a debug APK, arm64-v8a. Debug because a release APK
-#                     needs a signing keystore, which is likewise the
-#                     maintainer's; the debug keystore is generated on the
-#                     runner. It installs on any arm64 Android 8.0+ device with
-#                     `adb install`.
-#
-# Both jobs fail if the thing they exist to produce is missing. The bundler
-# exits zero on a target it silently skipped (desktop-release.yml learned this
-# the hard way), so "the step passed" is not evidence; "the file exists and
-# contains the Rust library" is.
-#
-# The Xcode project is generated on the macOS runner the first time (this
-# laptop has no Xcode, only the Command Line Tools) and then committed, so
-# the init step is a no-op once gen/apple is in the tree. The Android project
-# was generated locally and is committed; the same guard keeps that job
-# honest if someone deletes it.

 <summary><strong>How do I use a local model (Ollama)?</strong></summary>

 ```bash
-# Start Ollama and pull a model
+# Start Ollama server first
 ollama serve
-ollama pull llama3.2
+
+# Set environment variable
+export OPENAI_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434/v1
 ```

-```python
-from praisonaiagents import Agent
-
-agent = Agent(instructions="You are a helpful assistant", llm="ollama/llama3.2")
-agent.start("Why is the sky blue?")
-```
-
-The `ollama/` prefix is what selects Ollama's handling — tool-call repair,
-tool-result formatting and the streaming rules small local models need. Or set
-it by environment instead:
-
-```bash
-export OPENAI_MODEL_NAME=ollama/llama3.2
-```
-
-Setting only `OPENAI_BASE_URL` is not enough: with no model named, the OpenAI
-default (`gpt-4o-mini`) is sent to Ollama, which answers
-`404 model 'gpt-4o-mini' not found`. Always name the model.
-
-Point at a non-default host with `base_url=` or `OLLAMA_HOST`:
-
-```python
-agent = Agent(instructions="...", llm="ollama/llama3.2", base_url="http://192.168.1.10:11434")
-```
-
-The same shape works for other local runtimes — `lm_studio/`, `vllm/` and
-`hosted_vllm/` with their server's `base_url`.

Core `praisonaiagents/tools/` holds SDK primitives (decorator, registry, schedule, shell, trust, subagent) and a small set of **legacy** bundled tools kept for backward compatibility.

-#### 6.1.1 Tool routing — third-party connectors → PraisonAI-Tools (MUST)
-
-New agent-callable third-party connectors (external HTTP/API, SaaS, DB) go to **[PraisonAI-Tools](https://github.com/MervinPraison/PraisonAI-Tools)**, NOT `praisonaiagents/tools/`. Core keeps only tool *protocols, base classes, decorator, registry, resolver, trust/fencing* — not connectors.
-
-**Decision test** — keep in core only if **both** left-column conditions hold; route out if **any** right-column condition holds:
-
-| Keep in core `praisonaiagents/tools/` | Route to PraisonAI-Tools |
-|---|---|
-| Local-state only (filesystem, shell, Python, AST, todo, schedule) **or** framework plumbing (delegation, subagent, session, artifact, memory, clarify) | Calls a third-party/remote API or SaaS |
-| …using only stdlib or already-required core deps | Needs service-specific auth or SDK; is a vendor connector (search, data, CRM, DB, messaging) |
-
-A macro/FX data client (e.g. FXMacroData) → **PraisonAI-Tools**, even on stdlib `urllib`, because it depends on an external service + credentials.
-
-> [!WARNING]
-> Legacy in-repo connectors (`tavily_tools.py`, `exa_tools.py`, `github_tools.py`, etc.) are backward-compat precedent, **not** a licence to add more. "Same shape as Tavily/Exa" is a *consistency* check, not a *routing* one — do not approve a new connector into core on precedent alone.

-Connectors in PraisonAI-Tools are used via `Agent(tools=[...])`. Placement/registration alone does **not** fence results — fencing requires the tool name in `EXTERNAL_TOOL_NAMES` or `ToolTrustLevel.EXTERNAL`. Register with `add_external_tool(tool_name)` to fence untrusted results.

-
-## 2. The reproduction that matters most
-
-`format` (JSON schema) plus `tools`, sent to Ollama, produces a **confident fabrication** with
-an HTTP 200 and no warning. The JSON grammar makes the tool-call tag unemittable, so the
-model cannot call the tool and answers from nothing instead.
-
-```
-POST /api/chat   model=qwen3:0.6b   think=false
-prompt: "What is the weather in Paris? Use the tool."
-tools:  [get_weather(city: string)]
-
-WITH format + tools                     -> HTTP 200
-  message.tool_calls : null
-  message.content    : {"answer": "The weather in Paris is sunny with a temperature of 15C."}
-
-TOOLS ONLY (format removed)             -> HTTP 200
-  message.tool_calls : [{"function": {"name": "get_weather",
-                                      "arguments": {"city": "Paris"}}}]
-  message.content    : ""
-```
-
-Consequence for design: this combination must **raise**, not be silently repaired. A
-fabricated answer that looks correct is worse than an error.

-anywhere, and with the three module functions that is 12 dead items. Note also that
-`LLMProviderAdapterProtocol` declares only **16** — it omits `get_streaming_adapter`, so that
-method is not part of the protocol it claims to implement.

-### Compensation coverage across the three response paths — the A2 finding
-
-```
-                                        get_response   _async   _stream
-                                             1675 L     969 L     443 L

-_format_ollama_tool_result_message           1          1         1*  (indirect)
-```
-
-`get_response_stream` has none of the seven — except `_format_ollama_tool_result_message`,
-which it reaches indirectly via `_create_tool_message` (`llm.py:6791`), so that row overstated
-the gap. A fuller re-measurement found **16** divergent compensations, not 7; three of them run
-*against* the sync path. The full matrix is in `06-adapter-revival.md` §2.6. `difflib` similarity of `get_response` against
-`get_response_async` is **22.3%**, while the file's other four sync/async pairs are 76–91% —
-so those two have diverged, not merely duplicated.
-
-### Import graph — the I6 constraint
-
-65 subpackages, 212 directed edges, **26 mutually-importing pairs**. Heaviest:
-
-```
-agent   <-> tools       53 + 1        llm/ imports: tools 10, streaming 7,
-agent   <-> approval    28 + 1                      agent 4, telemetry 2,
-agent   <-> config      25 + 1                      auth 2, compaction 2,
-agent   <-> llm         19 + 4                      context 1, thinking 1
-llm     <-> tools       10 + 1
-context <-> llm          2 + 1        15 subpackages import llm/
-```
-
-### Reachability — the A3 finding
-
-21 modules call a provider SDK directly, bypassing both clients: 23 `litellm.completion/acompletion`,
-7 `litellm.embedding/aembedding`, 16 `chat.completions.create`, 3 bare `OpenAI()`.
-
-These nine contain **zero** occurrences of `api_base` or `base_url`, so there is no parameter
-to set — "run everything locally" is currently unachievable, not merely unconfigured:
-
-```
-memory/memory.py          workflows/workflows.py     eval/judge.py
-eval/grader.py            eval/accuracy.py           context/compressor.py
-context/optimizer.py      lite/__init__.py           telemetry/performance_monitor.py
-```
-
-Worst single case, `memory/memory.py:2186-2192`:
-
-```python
-from openai import OpenAI
-client = OpenAI()                    # no base_url, no api_key
-response = client.chat.completions.create(
-    model=llm or "gpt-4o-mini", ...
-```
-
-Hardcoded defaults in code (excluding docstrings): **105** `"gpt-4o-mini"`, **17**
-`"text-embedding-3-small"`. Sixteen of the 105 are the identical line
-`self.llm if hasattr(self,'llm') else "gpt-4o-mini"` in `agent/context_agent.py`.
-
-### Stringly-typed provider identity — the A6 finding
-
-**77 occurrences of 23 distinct string predicates** across `src/`. The same provider is
-tested inconsistently, which is precisely how D3 and D4 arose:
-
-```
- 9  startswith("anthropic/")     gemini tested 3 ways:   gpt tested 4 ways:
- 8  startswith("ollama/")          startswith("gemini")    startswith('gpt-')
- 7  "ollama" in                    startswith("gemini/")   startswith("gpt-")
- 6  startswith("gemini")           startswith('gemini-')   startswith("gpt")
- 5  startswith("openai/")                                  "gpt" in
- 5  startswith("claude")
- 3  ":11434" in
-```

-### Accretion history — why boundaries matter here
-
-| File | First | Now | Commits | Ever shrank |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| `llm/llm.py` | 1,212 (Jan 2025) | 7,160 | 251 | never, in 18 sampled months |

-| `agent/chat_mixin.py` | created Apr 2026 | 6,151 | 150 | — |
-
-On **2026-04-01** `agent.py` was split 8,915 → 5,030 by extracting `chat_mixin.py`. Five
-months later the two halves total **13,852 lines — 55% above the pre-split file**, growing
-~33 lines/day. Moving code did not create a boundary. This is the argument for I6 being a
-*test* rather than a convention.

-## 4. Dependency facts
-
-| Package | Version present | Status |
-|---|---|---|
-| `httpx` | 0.28.1 | **hard transitive dep** of required `openai>=2.0.0` (`httpx<1,>=0.23.0`) |
-| `aiohttp` | 3.14.1 | direct required core dep |
-| `openai` | 2.44.0 | direct required core dep |
-| `litellm` | 1.90.2 | optional (`llm`, `memory` extras) |
-
-`pyproject.toml` declares **17 optional extras** — `a2ui, api, all, auth, autonomy, crawl,
-dakera, graph, knowledge, llm, mcp, memory, mongodb, os, sandbox, search, telemetry` — and
-**none of them is local**. `import praisonaiagents` measures 0.04 s, so imports are lazy and
-cheap; discovery latency is the only startup cost to manage.
-
-**Conclusion (superseded).** This section originally concluded `local/` should use `httpx`.
-That was reversed by the normative decision in `07-local-package-spec.md` §3: `httpx` is present
-only as an **undeclared transitive** edge (`openai -> httpx`), so building the dependency sink on
-it means a future `openai` release dropping `httpx` would silently break `local/`. The client is
-therefore stdlib `urllib.request`, and the boundary test forbids `httpx`/`requests`/`aiohttp`.
-The measurement above stands; only the recommendation drawn from it was wrong.
-

-
-## 5. litellm prefix resolution vs ours
-
-litellm 1.90.2 resolves all of these; PraisonAI's `_detect_provider` recognises only `ollama/`:
-
-```
-ollama/llama3.2       -> ollama   OllamaAdapter    repairs=2
-ollama_chat/llama3.2  -> openai   DefaultAdapter   repairs=0     <- litellm's RECOMMENDED prefix
-lm_studio/qwen        -> openai   DefaultAdapter   repairs=0
-vllm/x                -> openai   DefaultAdapter   repairs=0
-hosted_vllm/x         -> openai   DefaultAdapter   repairs=0
-huggingface/x         -> openai   DefaultAdapter   repairs=0
-```
-

-
-## 6. Known-bad environment note
-
-`mervinpraison/praisonai-qwen3.5-9b-tamil-en2ta:latest` does **not load** on Ollama 0.33.2:
-`Failed to load CLIP model from ...sha256-11540ddc21b3...`, HTTP 500. The vision projector
-blob is the failing piece. Use `qwen3:0.6b` for local verification instead. Unrelated to this
-work, but it will waste an agent's time if not known.
-
-
---
-
-## 7. The three response paths disagree — measured, not inferred
-
-Live Ollama, `temperature=0`, identical prompt and tool, two trials, reproducible
-(script in `06-adapter-revival.md` §2.7):
-
-```
-sync    calls=2   'Paris: 21C sunny. Paris: 21C sunny.'
-async   calls=1   'Paris: 21C sunny'
-stream  calls=10  ''
-```
-
-> **Corrected 2026-09-03.** An earlier draft recorded the sync path returning
-> `'{\n\n\n}'` with one tool call. That did not reproduce; the figures above did,
-> across two trials. The finding is unchanged — the paths disagree and the stream
-> path is broken — but the `'{\n\n\n}'` sample should not be cited.
-
-Three facts follow, and they reframe the work:
-
-1. **The best-compensated path produces the worst answer.** `get_response` carries 16 of the 18
-   compensations and calls the tool twice, returning a doubled answer;
-   `get_response_async` carries 8 and returns the correct answer once. More compensation is
-   not the goal — *the same* compensation is.
-2. **The stream path is not under-compensated, it is broken.** It burns all 10 iterations of
-   `max_iter`, invokes the tool **ten times** for a one-tool question, and yields nothing. That
-   is a cost and side-effect amplifier, not a formatting defect.
-3. Leading hypothesis for the sync/async split: `OLLAMA_FINAL_ANSWER_PROMPT` (`llm.py:5302`,
-   async only). **Still a hypothesis, not a measurement** — it was not settled during order 06,
-   because the corrected baseline changed what needs explaining.
-
-## 8. Two test-infrastructure traps
-
- **`src/praisonai-agents/tests/` is almost entirely outside CI.** The only tests any workflow
-  runs from it are `tests/smoke/test_subscription_auth.py` and
-  `tests/unit/auth/test_agent_auth_wiring.py`. `tests/unit/test_adapter_registry.py` (38 tests)
-  and all 13 files in `tests/unit/llm/` run **nowhere**. Put new tests in
-  `src/praisonai/tests/unit/llm/`, which is run.
- **`test_ollama_tool_reliability.py` tests a copy, not the product.** Its `MockLLM`
-  re-implements `_is_ollama_provider`, `_apply_ollama_defaults`, `_validate_tool_call`,
-  `_should_force_tool_usage` and both prompt templates. It cannot fail in response to any change
-  in `llm.py`. Do not treat it as a safety net.
-
-
-## 9. Test-gating facts (order 04)
-
- **`not network`, not `provider_ollama`, is what deselects the mocked base_url suite.** The gating
-  plugin implies `network` from *any* provider marker (`test_gating.py:235-238`) and every CI
-  expression contains `not network`. Editing the workflows' `-m` strings accomplishes nothing.
- `tests/unit/**` is **exempt** from provider auto-detection (`test_gating.py:215`,
-  `test_type != 'unit'`). That is why `tests/unit/llm/test_ollama_tool_reliability.py` runs in CI
-  while the integration file does not — and why live tests placed under `tests/unit/` need an
-  **explicit** marker.
- `-m provider_ollama` currently selects **32 tests across 5 files**; only 7 are Ollama tests.
- **4 of the 7 tests in `test_base_url_api_base_fix.py` fail when actually executed** —
-  `LLMResponseError: 'str' object has no attribute 'choices'`. The mock returns a dict; the
-  tool-calling loop needs an object with `.choices`.
- **`tests/test_double_api_fix.py` makes a real network call when forced to run.** `llm.py` routes
-  `gpt-4o-mini` through `litellm.responses` (`llm.py:6434`), not `litellm.completion`, so its patch
-  no longer intercepts (verified: 401 from `api.openai.com/v1/responses`). It is currently masked
-  by an unconditional auto-skip — **anyone who "fixes" the skip without fixing the mock gets live
-  billed calls.**
- **`network_guard.py` disables itself** for anything under `/integration/`, `/e2e/`, `/live/`
-  (lines 103-105) and for any `provider_*`-marked test (96-100). The suite's network blocker does
-  not cover the tests most likely to make network calls.
- **A live Ollama suite already exists** and has never run:
-  `tests/integration/test_ollama_tool_calling_live.py`, 230 lines, 7 tests, gated on
-  `PRAISONAI_TEST_OLLAMA`. It is broken against `main` — all 7 pass `verbose=True` to `Agent()`,
-  and two pass `force_tool_usage=` / `max_tool_repairs=`; all three now raise `TypeError`.
- **`qwen3:0.6b` is 522 MB** (not ~400 MB) and reports `completion, tools, thinking` — **no
-  vision**. Reliability through `Agent`: default 3/4; `force_tool_usage="always"` + `temperature=0`
-  **6/6**; multi-step arithmetic 0/2 (one hung past 90 s).

-## 1. Corrections to the audit
-
-| # | Claim | Verdict |
-|---|---|---|
-| 1 | 4 CI marker expressions carry `not provider_ollama` | **True but incomplete** — there is a 5th, non-CI location: `src/praisonai-code/praisonai_code/cli/commands/test.py:67` (`praisonai test --tier main`). |
-| 2 | 7 tests, all deselected | **Exactly true** (`collected 7 items / 7 deselected / 0 selected`). **Stated cause is wrong** — see the callout above. |
-| 3 | The file never inspects `litellm.completion` kwargs | **True** (only `mock_completion.assert_called()`). **And worse: 4 of the 7 tests fail outright when executed.** They are not merely toothless, they are broken. |
-| 4 | `test_double_api_fix.py`: 0 asserts, 34 prints | **True. And worse:** all 3 tests are auto-`skip`ped in every configuration, and when forced to run its `patch('litellm.completion')` no longer intercepts — `llm.py` routes `gpt-4o-mini` through `litellm.responses`, so it makes a **real network call** (verified: 401 from `api.openai.com/v1/responses`). |
-| 5 | `test_ollama_tool_reliability.py` asserts against MockLLM | **True.** 541 lines, MockLLM at 23–197, 28 tests, all pass. **Quantified:** 2 of the 8 re-implemented methods (`_apply_ollama_defaults`, `_try_parse_tool_call_json`) **do not exist on the real `LLM` at all.** |
-| 6 | agents-side ollama tests gated only by `OLLAMA_HOST` | **True**, and `test_ollama_fix_openai` is gated only by `OPENAI_API_KEY` — a live **billed** call on a plain `pytest`. Mitigating: no CI workflow runs these two files. |
-| 7 | No ollama live job | **True for CI**, but the audit **missed that the suite already exists**: `tests/integration/test_ollama_tool_calling_live.py`, 230 lines, 7 tests, gated on `PRAISONAI_TEST_OLLAMA=1`. It is **broken against current `main`**. See order 05. |

-## 2. Reproduce before the fix
-
-```bash
-cd src/praisonai && export PYTHONPATH=$(cd ../praisonai-agents && pwd)
-CI_M="not slow and not network and not local_service and not provider_anthropic and not provider_google and not provider_ollama and not provider_grok_xai and not provider_groq and not provider_cohere"
-```
-
-**R1 — 100% deselected:**
-```bash
-python -m pytest tests/integration/test_base_url_api_base_fix.py -m "$CI_M" --collect-only -q --disable-warnings
-# collected 7 items / 7 deselected / 0 selected
-```
-
-**R2 — `provider_ollama` is a red herring.** Rerun R1 with `and not provider_ollama` **removed**:
-still `7 deselected / 0 selected`. `not network` does it alone.
-
-**R3 — the whole file is tagged.** With a marker-dump plugin, all seven items carry the identical
-set `['integration', 'network', 'provider_ollama', 'provider_openai', 'skip']` — including the six
-that never mention Ollama.
-
-**R4 — 4 of 7 fail when actually executed:**
-```bash
-PRAISONAI_ALLOW_NETWORK=1 PRAISONAI_TEST_PROVIDERS=all OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-fake-offline \
-  python -m pytest tests/integration/test_base_url_api_base_fix.py -o addopts="" -q --tb=no -rA
-# 4 failed, 3 passed
-```
-All four fail with `LLMResponseError: ... 'str' object has no attribute 'choices'`. The three that
-pass are the three that never call `get_response()`.
-
-**R5 — `-m provider_ollama` selects 4× more than it should:**
-```
-   7 tests/integration/test_base_url_api_base_fix.py
-   7 tests/integration/test_ollama_tool_calling_live.py
-  11 tests/integration/test_rag_integration.py
-   4 tests/integration/test_setup_integration.py
-   3 tests/test_double_api_fix.py
-```
-**32 selected; only 7 are Ollama tests.** This is why order 04 is a hard prerequisite for order 05 —
-`-m provider_ollama` is currently not a usable selector.

-## 3. Root cause
-
-`test_gating.py:153-166` scans the **entire file**:
-
-```python
-153  def _detect_providers_in_file(filepath: Path) -> Set[str]:
-154      """Detect which providers are referenced in a test file."""
-...
-161      content = _get_file_content(filepath)
-162      detected = set()
-163      for marker, pattern in PROVIDER_PATTERNS.items():
-164          if pattern.search(content):
-165              detected.add(marker)
-166      return detected
-```
-
-Line 28 is `'provider_ollama': re.compile(r'\b(ollama)\b', re.IGNORECASE)`. One occurrence inside
-`test_ollama_environment_variable_compatibility` tags all seven items (applied at lines 213–230).
-
-Note line 215: `if item.fspath and test_type != 'unit'` — **`tests/unit/**` is exempt**, which is
-why `tests/unit/llm/test_ollama_tool_reliability.py` runs in CI while the integration file does not.
-
-**The second mechanism, which the audit missed**, is lines 235–238:
-
-```python
-235          # 3. Add network marker if any provider marker is present
-236          provider_markers = {m for m in existing_markers if m.startswith('provider_')}
-237          if provider_markers and 'network' not in existing_markers:
-238              item.add_marker(pytest.mark.network)
-```
-
-A mocked test that merely *mentions* `openai` gets `network`, and every CI expression contains
-`not network`. Lines 262–267 then convert it into a runtime skip.
-
-**Sub-defect 3.** Lines 59, 145, 177, 234 are all bare `mock_completion.assert_called()`. Nothing
-reads `call_args`. Measured: `LLM(model='openai/mistral', base_url='http://localhost:4000',
-api_key='sk-test').get_response("test", stream=False)` calls `litellm.completion` with
-`base_url='http://localhost:4000'` and `api_base=None`. **So the file's title is stale** — the real
-invariant is *`base_url` survives into the call*, not "maps to `api_base`".
-

-
-## 4. The change
-
-**Design decision: AST per-test marking, not file splitting.**
-
- *Split the file* — cost cheap, **benefit zero** (measured, R2): the six non-Ollama tests still
-  match `provider_openai`, still get `network`, still get deselected. It also leaves `-m
-  provider_ollama` selecting 32 tests and fixes nothing for the other 14 mixed-provider files.
-  **Rejected.**
- *AST per-test marking* — one change in one plugin, fixes the class of problem, and is the
-  prerequisite for order 05's selector to mean anything. **Recommended.**
-
-### Sub-change 1 — per-test provider detection via AST
-
-Keep `_detect_providers_in_file` (it now serves only the `network` marker) and add:
-
-```python
-def _detect_providers_in_text(text: str) -> Set[str]:
-    """Return every provider marker whose pattern appears in ``text``."""
-    detected = set()
-    for marker, pattern in PROVIDER_PATTERNS.items():
-        if pattern.search(text):
-            detected.add(marker)
-    return detected
-
-
-def _build_per_test_provider_map(filepath: Path) -> Optional[Dict[tuple, Set[str]]]:
-    """Map ``(class_name, func_name)`` -> provider markers for one test file.
-
-    The text considered for a test is that test's own source segment plus its
-    decorators -- not the whole file. Returns ``None`` if the file cannot be
-    parsed, so callers fall back to whole-file rather than under-marking.
-    """
-    key = str(filepath)
-    if key in _file_provider_cache:
-        return _file_provider_cache[key]
-    result: Optional[Dict[tuple, Set[str]]] = None
-    try:
-        source = _get_file_content(filepath)
-        tree = ast.parse(source)
-        result = {}

-                    segment = ast.get_source_segment(source, child) or ""
-                    for decorator in child.decorator_list:
-                        segment += "\n" + (ast.get_source_segment(source, decorator) or "")
-                    result[(class_name, child.name)] = _detect_providers_in_text(segment)
-
-        _visit(tree)
-    except (SyntaxError, ValueError, RecursionError):
-        result = None

-    return result
-
-
-def _detect_providers_for_item(item) -> Set[str]:
-    """Provider markers for a single collected item (per test, not per file)."""
-    filepath = Path(item.fspath)
-    if _is_excluded_path(str(filepath)):
-        return set()
-    per_test = _build_per_test_provider_map(filepath)
-    if per_test is None:
-        return _detect_providers_in_file(filepath)
-    parts = item.nodeid.split("::")[1:]
-    if not parts:
-        return _detect_providers_in_file(filepath)
-    func = parts[-1].split("[")[0]

-        return set(per_test[(None, func)])
-    # Dynamically generated item we cannot locate in the AST: stay conservative.
-    return _detect_providers_in_file(filepath)
-```
-
-Add `import ast`, a `_file_provider_cache: Dict[str, Optional[Dict[tuple, Set[str]]]] = {}` next to
-`_file_content_cache` (line 46), and clear it in `pytest_configure` (186) and
-`pytest_sessionfinish` (294).
-
-### Sub-change 2 — `offline` opt-out, and pin `network` to the file
-
-Replace lines 213–230 with a version that (a) honours an explicit `offline` marker, (b) calls
-`_detect_providers_for_item`, and (c) **keeps `network` whole-file derived**:
-
-```python
-                offline = 'offline' in existing_markers
-                if not offline:
-                    detected_providers = _detect_providers_for_item(item)
-                    for marker, pattern in PROVIDER_PATTERNS.items():
-                        if pattern.search(item.nodeid):
-                            detected_providers.add(marker)
-                    for provider in detected_providers:
-                        if provider not in existing_markers:
-                            item.add_marker(getattr(pytest.mark, provider))
-                    # The `network` marker stays WHOLE-FILE derived. Narrowing
-                    # the provider markers must not, by itself, un-deselect a
-                    # test that is really live -- only `offline` does that.
-                    if _detect_providers_in_file(filepath) and 'network' not in existing_markers:
-                        item.add_marker(pytest.mark.network)
-```
-
-**Why `network` stays file-derived — this is the whole backward-compatibility story and is not
-optional.** Measured: if per-test narrowing were also allowed to narrow `network`, **48 currently-
-deselected integration tests would newly select, 25 of them with no `skipif` — they would actually
-execute**, across nine files including `test_rag_live.py` and `test_model_routing_real.py`, in a
-suite where the network guard is disabled for everything under `/integration/`
-(`network_guard.py:103-105`). Pinning `network` to the file makes sub-change 1 provably
-**selection-neutral** under every existing `-m` expression, while still making `-m provider_ollama`
-mean what it says.
-
-Register the marker in both `pytest.ini` files and `tests/conftest.py`:
-```
-    offline: Fully mocked - opt out of provider/network auto-marking
-```
-
-### Sub-change 3 — opt the file in, and make it guard its bug
-
-Add `pytestmark = pytest.mark.offline` plus a response factory:
-
-```python
-def make_completion_response(text="Test response"):
-    """A litellm.completion stand-in the LLM tool-calling loop can consume.
-
-    A bare dict is NOT sufficient: the loop reads ``.choices[0].message`` and a
-    dict raises ``'str' object has no attribute 'choices'``.
-    """
-    resp = MagicMock()
-    resp.choices = [MagicMock()]
-    resp.choices[0].message.content = text
-    resp.choices[0].message.tool_calls = None
-    resp.choices[0].finish_reason = "stop"
-    return resp
-```
-
-For each of the four broken tests: replace the dict `return_value` with
-`make_completion_response(...)`, pass `stream=False` to `get_response`, and replace
-`mock_completion.assert_called()` with a real kwarg assertion:
-
-```python
-        kwargs = mock_completion.call_args.kwargs
-        assert kwargs['base_url'] == 'http://localhost:4000'
-        assert kwargs['api_key'] == 'sk-test'
-        assert kwargs['model'] == 'openai/mistral'
-```
-
- `test_koboldcpp_specific_scenario` → `kwargs['base_url'] == "http://127.0.0.1:5001/v1"`
- `test_litellm_documentation_example_compatibility` → `kwargs['base_url'] == "http://0.0.0.0:4000"`
- `test_ollama_environment_variable_compatibility` → `kwargs['model'] == 'ollama/llama2'` **and**
-  `'base_url' not in kwargs` (none was configured; the env path must not inject one)
-
-All four were run standalone against `main` and pass. Leave the three currently-passing tests alone.
-
-Update the stale module docstring ("maps base_url to api_base" → "base_url must reach litellm") but
-**do not rename the test functions** — the nodeids are referenced in issue discussion, and renaming
-would change what the nodeid scan at plugin lines 224–226 sees.
-

-
-## 5. Backward-compatibility contract
-
-Baseline, measured (`tests/integration/`, CI ignores applied): **290 collected, 187 selected,
-103 deselected** under the CI marker expression.
-
-> Caveat for the executing agent: a cold first invocation on a fresh interpreter has been observed
-> to report `157/260`, apparently an optional-dependency import warming effect. **Run it twice**;
-> `187/290/103` is stable from the second run on. Take your own baseline before touching anything.
-
-**Tests whose selection status changes: exactly 7**, all in `test_base_url_api_base_fix.py`, all
-deselected → selected. Post-fix expectation: **194/290 (96 deselected)**. Nothing else moves in
-either direction — that is what the file-derived `network` guarantees.
-
-Intended change under `-m provider_ollama` (32 → 9):
-
-| file | before | after |
-|---|---|---|
-| `test_ollama_tool_calling_live.py` | 7 | 7 |
-| `test_base_url_api_base_fix.py` | 7 | 0 (`offline`) |
-| `test_rag_integration.py` | 11 | 1 |
-| `test_setup_integration.py` | 4 | 0 |
-| `test_double_api_fix.py` | 3 | 1 |
-
-**The risk, stated plainly.** Un-deselecting tests turns CI red if any fail. **They do: 4 of the 7
-fail today** (R4). This is not hypothetical.
-
-**Mitigation — mandatory, not optional: land the gating fix and the four repairs in the same PR.**
-Do not merge sub-changes 1+2 with the `pytestmark` but without the repairs. **Quarantining with
-`xfail` is explicitly rejected** — the repairs are ~10 lines each, verified working, and an `xfail`
-here would recreate the exact defect being fixed (a test that names a bug and does not guard it).
-
-**Escape hatch.** If the 7 prove flaky in CI for a reason not reproducible locally, revert
-**sub-change 3 only**. Selection returns to 187/290/103 and the plugin improvements stay.
-
---
-
-## 6. Tests to add
-
-In `tests/unit/cli/test_test_command.py` (the existing home of gating-plugin tests, and already in
-`EXCLUDED_PATHS`, so these cannot be auto-marked by the thing they test), add
-`class TestProviderMarkerGranularity` with:
-
- `test_ollama_does_not_leak_to_sibling_tests` — **THE meta-test.** If this fails, D7 has regressed.
- `test_openai_does_not_leak_to_sibling_tests`
- `test_plain_test_gets_no_provider_markers`
- `test_decorators_are_scanned` — a `@pytest.mark.parametrize("m", ["ollama/llama2"])` must mark it
- `test_unparseable_file_falls_back_to_whole_file` — conservative over-marking on a parse failure
- `test_network_marker_remains_whole_file_derived` — pins the decision that keeps this change
-  selection-neutral for the 96 still-deselected tests
- `test_offline_marker_is_registered` — both `pytest.ini` files, or every use warns
-
-No new dependency: `ast`, `tmp_path` and `configparser` are stdlib/pytest builtins.
-
---
-
-## 7. Verification and acceptance
-
-```bash
-# 1. The 7 are now selected
-python -m pytest tests/integration/test_base_url_api_base_fix.py -m "$CI_M" --collect-only -q
-# expect: 7 selected, 0 deselected
-
-# 2. They pass offline, with no keys and no services
-env -u OPENAI_API_KEY -u ANTHROPIC_API_KEY -u OLLAMA_HOST \
-  python -m pytest tests/integration/test_base_url_api_base_fix.py -m "$CI_M" -o addopts="" -q
-# expect: 7 passed
-
-# 3. Selection neutral everywhere else
-python -m pytest tests/integration/ $IG -o addopts="" -q --collect-only -m "$CI_M" | tail -1
-# expect: 194/290 tests collected (96 deselected)
-
-# 4. `-m provider_ollama` now means Ollama  -> 7 + 1 + 1, not 32
-# 5. Meta-tests pass
-# 6. The three CI shards reproduced verbatim do not regress
-# 7. The two pytest.ini marker tables stay in sync
-```
-
-**Acceptance gate:** `tests/integration/` collects **194/290 (96 deselected)** — exactly seven more
-than baseline, all seven from `test_base_url_api_base_fix.py` — **and passes with
-`OPENAI_API_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` and `OLLAMA_HOST` all unset and no Ollama server running.**
-
-**PR title:** `fix(tests): mark provider tests per test function, not per file`
-
---
-
-## 8. Filed for separate PRs
-
- **`tests/test_double_api_fix.py`'s mock no longer intercepts.** `llm.py` routes `gpt-4o-mini`
-  through `litellm.responses` (`llm.py:6434`), not `litellm.completion`. Forced to run, it makes a
-  **real OpenAI request** (verified: 401 for `https://api.openai.com/v1/responses`). Today it is
-  masked by an unconditional auto-`skip` — **anyone who "fixes" the skip without fixing the mock
-  gets live billed calls.**
- **`network_guard.py` disables itself for `/integration/`, `/e2e/`, `/live/`** (lines 103–105) and
-  for any `provider_*`-marked test (96–100). The suite's network blocker does not cover the tests
-  most likely to make network calls.

-# 05 — Live local-model CI job

-**Branch:** `feat/ci-ollama-live-job`

-
-## 1. The suite already exists — and is broken
-
-The audit concluded "no ollama live job, and no live suite". The first half is right; **the second
-is wrong**. `src/praisonai/tests/integration/test_ollama_tool_calling_live.py` is 230 lines,
-7 tests, gated at lines 19–22 on `PRAISONAI_TEST_OLLAMA`. It has never run anywhere.
-
-Measured against `main`, **it cannot run** — three `Agent()` kwargs are now rejected:
-
-```
-$ python -c "from praisonaiagents import Agent; Agent(name='C', llm='ollama/qwen3:0.6b', verbose=True)"
-TypeError: Agent.__init__() got unexpected keyword argument(s): verbose
-  verbose: verbosity moved into output=; use output='verbose' (or output=OutputConfig(verbose=True)).
-
-$ ... Agent(..., force_tool_usage="always")   -> TypeError: unexpected keyword argument(s): force_tool_usage
-$ ... Agent(..., max_tool_repairs=3)          -> TypeError: unexpected keyword argument(s): max_tool_repairs
-```
-
-All 7 tests use `verbose=True`; two also use the other two. **Every test errors on construction.**
-The modern form, verified working:
-
-```python
-Agent(name="C",
-      llm={"model": "ollama/qwen3:0.6b", "force_tool_usage": "always", "max_tool_repairs": 3},
-      tools=[calculator])
-# -> llm_instance.force_tool_usage == 'always', llm_instance.max_tool_repairs == 3
-```
-
-So this order is **"fix a dead test file and wire it up"**, not "write a live suite".
-
---
-
-## 2. Model selection
-
-Measured on a real Ollama 0.33.2 host:
-
-```
-$ ollama list
-qwen3:0.6b   7df6b6e09427   522 MB
-$ ollama show qwen3:0.6b
-  parameters       751.63M      quantization  Q4_K_M      context length  40960
-  Capabilities:    completion, tools, thinking
-```
-
-**Two corrections:** the blob is **522 MB**, not ~400 MB; and it is **not vision capable** —
-`completion, tools, thinking` only. Tools + thinking is all this job needs.
-
-**Reliability, measured end-to-end through `praisonaiagents.Agent`:**
-
-| configuration | trials | tool invoked + correct answer | latency |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| default | 4 | **3/4** — one run returned `{}` with no tool call | 0.5–5.4 s |
-| `force_tool_usage="always"`, `temperature=0` | 6 | **6/6** | 0.4–4.0 s |
-| indirect prompt ("I know it's easy, but use the tool") | 1 | 0/1 — emitted `{"type": "calculator", ...}`, wrong key | 0.6 s |
-| multi-step `(17+25)+(8+9)` | 2 | 1 hung past 90 s; 1 answered 42 instead of 59 | — |
-
-**Conclusion: `qwen3:0.6b` is the right model, but only the forced, zero-temperature, single-call
-prompt is CI-deterministic.**
-
-Rejected alternatives: `qwen2.5:0.5b` (~400 MB, older tool calling, unmeasured — no reason to
-prefer it over a verified model); `llama3.2:1b` (~1.3 GB, 2.5× the cache for no measured gain);
-`smollm2:135m` (**no `tools` capability — disqualifying**); `olmo-3` (the file's current default,
-~7B, far too large per run). Keep `olmo-3` as the *local* default so developer workflow is
-unchanged; let CI override via env var.
-
-**Cache:** `~/.ollama/models`, keyed `${{ runner.os }}-ollama-models-${{ env.OLLAMA_TEST_MODEL }}`.
-**No `restore-keys`** — a partial restore of a *different* model's blobs is worse than a clean
-pull, and a stale key would silently test the wrong model.
-
-**Install:** pinned release tarball, not `curl https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh`. The install
-script tracks latest, so the job would silently change what it tests, and it pulls GPU runtimes a
-CPU-only runner never uses. Expect ~20–60 s tarball + ~30–90 s cold model pull, near-zero on a
-cache hit — **the executing agent must confirm real timings on the first green run and write them
-into a YAML comment.**
-
-**Gating:** `if: github.event_name == 'schedule' || github.event.inputs.tier == 'extended' ||
-github.event.inputs.tier == 'nightly'` — byte-identical to `extended-anthropic` (line 467),
-`extended-google` (525), `extended-groq` (585), `extended-xai` (644), `extended-cohere` (703).
-**It never runs on a pull request.**
-
---
-
-## 3. One deliberate departure from the sibling jobs
-
-Every existing live job ends `|| echo "... tests completed"`, so **it can never fail**. That is
-defensible for key-dependent jobs — a rotated secret should not page anyone — but it is exactly
-the "test that cannot fail" pattern this whole effort exists to remove, and **Ollama needs no
-secret**: availability is fully under the job's control.
-
-So the job has **two run steps**:
-1. a **required** minimum-contract step with **no `|| echo`**;
-2. an **informational** step for the measured-flaky remainder, keeping the sibling style.
-
-**Do not merge them.**
-
---
-
-## 4. Test-file changes
-
-1. After `pytestmark`, add the model indirection:
-   ```python
-   # CI overrides this with a small, fast model; local runs keep olmo-3.
-   OLLAMA_MODEL = "ollama/" + os.getenv("PRAISONAI_OLLAMA_TEST_MODEL", "olmo-3")
-   ```
-2. Replace all 7 hard-coded `llm="ollama/olmo-3"` with `llm=OLLAMA_MODEL`.
-3. Remove `verbose=True` from all 7 `Agent(...)` calls. Where verbosity is wanted: `output="verbose"`.
-4. Move `force_tool_usage="always"` and `max_tool_repairs=3` into an `llm` dict.
-5. Add the CI-minimum test as a new first class — **the only assertion in the file with a measured
-   6/6 pass rate**:
-
-```python
-class TestOllamaCIMinimum:
-    """The minimum contract a local model must satisfy: a tool call round-trips.
-
-    Deliberately narrow. Measured on qwen3:0.6b: this exact configuration
-    (forced tool usage, temperature 0, single arithmetic step) passed 6/6.

-        assert "42" in str(result), f"tool result did not round-trip: {result!r}"
-```
-
-Reuse the existing `ollama_available` fixture (lines 48–53) — it already probes
-`http://localhost:11434/api/tags` and skips cleanly. Do not add a second probe.
-
-### Why both assertions are needed
-
-`qwen3:0.6b` answers `17 + 25 = 42` **correctly with no tools at all** (measured, 1.2 s,
-`tools=[]`). So a bare `assert "42" in result` is satisfied by a model that ignores tools entirely.
-The `invocations == [(17, 25)]` half is what proves the tool call was emitted, parsed and
-dispatched with the right arguments; the `"42"` half proves the return value was fed back and
-reached the final answer. Anything beyond this — multi-step chains, repair loops, resisting
-distraction — is measured-flaky on a 0.6B model and belongs in the informational step.

-## 0. How to use this document
-
-This directory is a **work-order ledger**. It exists so that any agent — including one
-with no memory of the conversation that produced it — can pick up exactly one unit of
-work and execute it correctly, in isolation, without re-deriving the analysis.
-
-**If you are an agent starting work here, do this in order:**
-
-1. Read [`00-ground-truth.md`](00-ground-truth.md). It records what was measured, how, and
-   when. Do not trust a claim in any work order that contradicts it; re-measure instead.
-2. Read §2 (Invariants) and §3 (File ownership) of this file. §3 is what stops two agents
-   corrupting each other's work.
-3. Open the single work order you were assigned. Execute only that one.
-4. Update the status row in §4 of this file in the same commit as your change. That row is
-   the only shared file content; keep the edit to one line to avoid conflicts.
-
-**Do not** expand scope, batch two work orders into one PR, or "fix while you're in there".
-Each order is independently revertible by design and that property is worth more than
-convenience.
-
-> **Two corrections this ledger has already had to make.** Both were caught by measuring rather
-> than reasoning, and both would have sent an agent down the wrong path.
->
-> **The D7 root cause is not `provider_ollama`.** The audit blamed the per-file `provider_ollama`
-> tag. Measurement (`04-test-gating.md` §2) shows `not network` deselects all seven tests **on its
-> own**, because the plugin implies `network` from *any* provider marker and the file also matches
-> `provider_openai`. **Removing `not provider_ollama` from the workflows would change nothing.**
-> That is why order `04` touches no YAML at all — the fix is marker-side.
-> Its first draft told an agent to "wire
-> the twelve dead adapter methods". Measurement (`06-adapter-revival.md` §1) says the opposite:
-> **12 of 20 items should be deleted, only 3 wired.** Six of the dead methods have no inline
-> equivalent anywhere — they are speculative API, and an agent told to "wire them up" would
-> invent an implementation that no test could ever have failed against. Read the decision table
-> before touching `llm/adapters/`; do not act on the summary in §1 of this file.

-
-## 1. Why this work exists
-
-Every local runtime worth supporting already speaks `POST /v1/chat/completions`, and
-`litellm` already handles that transport. So the problem is not calling local models — the
-SDK can already do that. The problems are:
-
- **Discovery.** A user with a running daemon still hand-types a URL, a port and an exact
-  model tag; getting any one wrong produces `OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable is required`.
- **Capability.** "Does this model support tools?" is answerable by asking the server
-  (`/api/show`, `/props`, `/server_info`). The SDK asks nothing and guesses from a name prefix.
- **Quirks.** Local stacks fail silently with HTTP 200. The sharpest: sending `format` and
-  `tools` together to Ollama suppresses the tool call and the model fabricates an answer.
-
-The layer being built is therefore a **resolver, not a transport**: it returns data about
-what is running and what it will get wrong. Compensating behaviour stays in
-`llm/adapters/`, which already declares methods for exactly this purpose.
-
---
-
-## 2. Invariants — never break these
-
-These come from `src/praisonai-agents/AGENTS.md` §4.6 plus the structural review in
-`00-ground-truth.md`. Every work order inherits them; none may waive them.
-
-| # | Invariant | Why it binds this work specifically |
-|---|-----------|--------------------------------------|
-| I1 | **Backward compatible.** Public API changes need a deprecation cycle. | Several fixes change which code path a given input takes. Each order carries an explicit list of inputs whose behaviour must not change. |
-| I2 | **Lazy imports.** Optional deps never imported at module level. | Discovery must not import `litellm` or any runtime SDK at import time. |
-| I3 | **Safe defaults.** New features are opt-in. | Discovery must not fire unless the model spec is `"local"` or unset. Never probe the network on a fully-specified config. |
-| I4 | **Deterministic tests.** No dependence on timing or external state. | Every test must pass with **no server running**. Live-server tests go behind an explicit marker and never run in the default suite. |
-| I5 | **Protocol-driven core.** No heavy implementations in core. | `local/` returns dataclasses. It performs no chat calls, no retry, no request mutation. |
-| I6 | **`local/` is a dependency sink.** | It may import the **standard library only** — nothing from `praisonaiagents`, and no third-party distribution (`httpx`/`requests`/`aiohttp` are forbidden; use `urllib.request`). Enforced by a test. See §5 and `07` §3. |
-| I7 | **No second abstraction.** | `llm/adapters/` is the extension point. Do not add a parallel quirk/adapter registry beside it. |
-| I8 | **No new public knobs without a live consumer.** | Root `AGENTS.md`: do not add params, modules or exports that merely duplicate existing behaviour. |
-
-### I6 in detail — the import rule
-
-An AST pass over `praisonaiagents/` (595 files, 238,936 lines) found **65 subpackages, 212
-directed edges and 26 mutually-importing subpackage pairs**. `llm/` already imports upward
-into `agent/`, and 15 subpackages import `llm/` back. Consequently a shared helper placed in
-`llm/` **cannot** be adopted by `memory/` or `eval/` without deepening the existing cycles.
-
-`local/` is therefore specified as a leaf. That single property is what allows the 21
-modules which currently bypass the LLM layer to adopt it later. Treat any import of
-`praisonaiagents.*` from inside `local/` as a build break, not a style issue.
-
-The HTTP client is stdlib `urllib.request`, **not** `httpx`. An earlier draft of this ledger
-permitted `httpx` on the grounds that it is a transitive dependency of `openai>=2.0.0`. That
-was reversed in `07` §3: the edge is undeclared in `pyproject.toml`, so a future `openai`
-release that drops `httpx` would silently break the sink — precisely the class of failure this
-package exists to catalogue. The boundary test in §5 hard-forbids `httpx`/`requests`/`aiohttp`
-so the decision cannot drift.

-## 3. File ownership — collision avoidance
-
-Two work orders that touch the same file **must not run concurrently**. This table is the
-authority. Before starting, check that no in-flight PR owns your files.
-
-| Work order | Owns (may edit) | Must not edit |
-|---|---|---|
-| `01-d1-default-model` | `agent/agent.py` (branch chain only) | `llm/llm.py`, `llm/adapters/` |
-| `02-d3-provider-detection` | `llm/llm.py` (`_detect_provider`, `_is_ollama_provider` only) | `agent/agent.py`, `llm/adapters/` |
-| `03-d2-base-url-routing` | `agent/agent.py` (base_url branch), root `README.md` | `llm/llm.py`, `llm/adapters/` |
-| `04-test-gating` | `tests/_pytest_plugins/test_gating.py`, both `pytest.ini`, `tests/conftest.py`, `tests/integration/test_base_url_api_base_fix.py`, `tests/unit/cli/test_test_command.py` | any `praisonaiagents/` source; **`.github/workflows/**` — the `-m` expressions are not the bug** |
-| `05-live-ci-job` | `.github/workflows/test-optimized.yml`, `tests/integration/test_ollama_tool_calling_live.py` | any `praisonaiagents/` source; `test_gating.py` |
-| `06-adapter-revival` | `llm/adapters/__init__.py`, `llm/llm.py` (3 response paths) | `agent/agent.py` |
-| `07-local-package` | `praisonaiagents/local/**` (new), `src/praisonai/tests/unit/llm/local/**` (new), `pyproject.toml` extras | everything else |
-| `08-reachability` | `memory/`, `eval/`, `context/`, `lite/`, `telemetry/` | `llm/`, `agent/` |
-
-### Enforced serialisation
-
- **`01` then `03`** — both edit `agent/agent.py`. Land `01` first.
- **`02` then `06`** — both edit `llm/llm.py`. Land `02` first; it is far smaller.
- **`04` then `05`** — before `04`, `-m provider_ollama` selects 32 tests across 5 files (only 7
-  are Ollama tests), so `05` has no usable selector and is unbuildable.
- **`04` and `07` are independent** of orders 01/02/03/06 and may run in parallel with them.
- **`08` requires `07`** to have landed, because it consumes `local/`.

-Additional PRs not in the original order list, found while executing it:
-D4 (local route prefixes) #4798, D5 (local embedding dimensions) #4802,
-D6 (registry accepts local providers) #4800.
-
-**Three claims in this ledger were corrected by executing it.** Each is marked
-inline where it appears, but they are collected here because a reader who trusts
-the summary would otherwise carry the wrong version:
-
-1. *"Wire the twelve dead adapter methods."* Measurement said the opposite:
-   **12 of 20 items should be deleted, only 3 wired** (`06` §1). Six had no
-   inline equivalent at all — an agent told to wire them would have invented
-   behaviour no test could fail against.
-2. *"`provider_ollama` deselects the mocked base_url suite."* It does not.
-   **`not network` deselects it on its own**, because the plugin implies
-   `network` from any provider marker (`04` §1). Editing the workflow `-m`
-   strings would have changed nothing.
-3. *"Running fully locally is unachievable, not merely unconfigured."* Not so:
-   litellm and the openai SDK both honour `OPENAI_BASE_URL`, so the bypass sites
-   **do** reach a local server. The blocker is the hardcoded model name they then
-   ask for (`00` §5, `08`).

-## 5. The two tests that keep this work honest
-
-Both are cheap, both are anti-regression, and both should land with their respective orders.
-
-**Import boundary (`07`).** Asserts `local/` imports nothing from `praisonaiagents`. Without
-it, I6 decays silently and the leaf property — the whole reason the package can be adopted
-by `memory/` and `eval/` — is lost.
-
-**Adapter reachability (`06`).** Asserts every method on `DefaultAdapter` has at least one
-call site. This is the test whose absence allowed 11 of 17 adapter methods to become dead code
-while `llm.py` grew 145 hand-written Ollama references. Two limits, both real: it cannot detect
-an *unreachable* call site (proven by `should_skip_streaming_with_tools`, which a caller would
-have satisfied while the branch stayed dead), and **one call site satisfies it — so it does not
-detect the three-path divergence at all.** A floor, not a ceiling.
-

-
-## 6. Deliberately out of scope
-
-Named here so that deferring them is a decision rather than an oversight. Do not let a work
-order quietly grow into one of these.
-
-| Deferred | Measured size | Why not now |
-|---|---|---|
-| Consolidating `LLM` and `OpenAIClient` behind one protocol | 7,160 + 2,691 lines, selected by one boolean at 6 sites | Neither is a superset of the other; the merge is larger than every order in this ledger combined. |
-| Decomposing `LLM.get_response` | 1,675 lines, 194 branch/loop/try nodes | Highest-risk file in the package. Order `06` must edit it surgically without reflowing it. |
-| Removing the sync/async divergence | ~1,628 duplicated lines across 10 pairs; `get_response` vs `_async` only 22.3% similar | Requires the consolidation above to be worth doing. |
-
-The one obligation this ledger accepts toward them: **do not make them worse.** No order may
-add a fifth copy of any compensation, and no order may add new logic inside `get_response`
-that is not a delegation to an adapter.

-# SDK Behavior Matrix

-1. Find the knob from the report in the tables below.
-2. Run the listed test: `PYTHONPATH=. python -m pytest <test> -q`.

-## 1. Chat & streaming
-
-Streaming is configured through `output=`, not a constructor kwarg.
-`Agent(stream=True)` raises `TypeError` with the hint
-*"streaming moved into output=; use output=OutputConfig(stream=True)."*
-`agent.stream` is `False` unless `output="stream"` or `OutputConfig(stream=True)` is used.
-
-| API / knob | Expected behavior | Sharp edge | Test |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `chat(prompt, stream=None)` | Inherits `agent.stream`. Returns the final `str` (or model, see §3). | Never a generator. | `tests/unit/agent/test_execution_api.py` |
-| `chat(stream=True)` | Tokens go to `agent.stream_emitter`; the call still returns the full `str`. If the adapter cannot stream (`"Streaming is not supported"`) or the stream attempt fails transiently, it falls back to a non-streaming call. | `None` is **not** a valid "streaming succeeded" result (#5737). `LLMError`, `ToolExecutionError`, other `ValueError`s and post-dispatch tool-turn failures are **not retried** by the fallback. Of these, only `ToolExecutionError` reaches the caller; the rest roll back history and `chat()` returns `None` (see below). | `tests/test_chat_explicit_stream_fallback.py`, `tests/test_streaming_fallback_kwargs.py` |
-| `chat(stream=False)` | Single non-streaming completion; no stream events. | — | `tests/unit/test_stream_preset.py` |
-| `start(prompt)` | Stream priority: explicit kwarg > `agent.stream` > TTY. When streaming, returns a **generator** of chunks; otherwise a `str`. | Because `agent.stream` is always a bool, the TTY fallback only applies if `agent.stream` is set to `None`. Output guardrails are not applied to streamed chunks. | `tests/unit/agent/test_execution_api.py` |
-| `run(prompt)` | Never streams unless `stream=True` is passed; returns `str`. | Ignores TTY. | `tests/unit/agent/test_execution_api.py::TestAgentRunMethod::test_run_ignores_tty_detection` |
-| `iter_stream(prompt)` | Always a generator of chunks. | — | `tests/unit/agent/test_execution_api.py::TestAgentIterStreamMethod::test_iter_stream_always_streams` |
-| `achat()` / `astart()` | Same `stream` resolution as `chat()`; awaits and returns the final `str`. | Unlike `start()`, `astart()` never returns an (async) generator. | `tests/unit/agent/test_achat_unified_dispatch.py`, `tests/unit/agent/test_execution_api.py::TestAsyncMethods::test_astart_streams_in_tty` |
-
-**When `chat()`/`achat()` return `None`:** input guardrail or `BEFORE_AGENT` hook blocked the
-run, or the LLM call failed with anything other than `ToolExecutionError` (history is rolled
-back and the error is displayed/logged, not raised). Check for `None` rather than relying on
-`try/except` around `chat()`.
-An **output** guardrail rejection returns a fixed refusal string, not `None`; see
-`agent.last_guardrail_error`.

-## 2. Memory prefetch & scope
-
-| API / knob | Expected behavior | Sharp edge | Test |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `MemoryConfig(prefetch=True)` — sync (`_prefetch_memory`) | Before each turn, searches long-term memory with up to 5 terms (verbatim prompt → significant words → salient single words), stopping at the first non-empty hit. Results are injected into the **system prompt** under `## Recalled memories`, capped by `prefetch_limit` (5) and `prefetch_token_budget` (512, truncated with `…`). | Off by default. Errors are swallowed (debug log) and inject nothing. | `tests/unit/memory/test_prefetch.py` |
-| Same — async (`_aprefetch_memory`) | Same terms, stop rule, scope and formatting via `asearch_memory`. | Backends with only `.search()` (no `search_long_term`) are searched by the sync path but not the async path. | `tests/unit/memory/test_prefetch.py::test_async_prefetch_falls_back_to_significant_tokens` |
-| `MemoryConfig(user_id=...)` | Agents sharing a `user_id` share a store and recall each other's turns. Search is scoped by `user_id` + `session_id`, not `agent_id`. | Without `user_id`, each Agent gets a random `agent-<uuid>` id (warning logged) — memory is **isolated per instance**. There is no `Agent(user_id=...)` kwarg. | `tests/test_memory_cross_session.py` |
-
-## 3. Structured output
-
-`output_pydantic` / `output_json` are per-call `chat()`/`achat()` kwargs (forwarded by
-`start()`/`run()`) and `Task` fields — not `Agent` constructor params. There is no
-`output_json_schema`. Native `response_format` is used when the model supports structured
-outputs; otherwise the schema is appended to the prompt as text.
-
-| API / knob | Expected behavior | Sharp edge | Test |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `chat(..., output_pydantic=Model)` | Returns a `Model` **instance** (tries strict JSON, fenced ```json, then first `{...}` in prose). | On parse failure, logs a warning and returns the **raw string** — no exception, no retry. Check `isinstance`. | `tests/unit/agents/test_chat_output_pydantic_coercion.py` |
-| `chat(..., output_json=Model)` | Returns a JSON **string**. | Never a `dict` — call `json.loads` yourself. | `tests/unit/agents/test_chat_output_pydantic_coercion.py::test_chat_output_json_stays_string` |
-| `Task(output_pydantic=Model)` in a team | `TaskOutput.pydantic` holds the instance; `output_format="Pydantic"`. | Fails closed: invalid output is a failed task (`Structured output validation failed ...`), which drives the retry loop. Setting both `output_json` and `output_pydantic` raises `ValueError`. | `tests/unit/agents/test_output_pydantic_policy.py` |
-| `Task(output_json=Model)` in a team | `TaskOutput.json_dict` holds the parsed `dict`; `output_format="JSON"`. | Same fail-closed rule. | `tests/unit/agents/test_output_pydantic_policy.py::test_output_json_prose_is_not_success` |
-| Native vs text schema | `response_format` (strict) for capable models; prompt injection otherwise. | Provider-dependent. | `tests/test_native_structured_outputs.py` |
-
-## 4. Teams & handoff
-
-| API / knob | Expected behavior | Sharp edge | Test |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `AgentTeam(agents, tasks=[Task, ...])` | Accepts a list/tuple of `Task`. Sequential tasks are chained. `start()` returns the last task's `.raw` string (`return_dict=True` → `{"task_status", "task_results"}`). | `tasks="..."` → `TypeError: AgentTeam.tasks must be a list of Task instances, not str. ...`; `tasks=[]` → `ValueError: If tasks are provided, at least one task must be present`; non-`Task` item → `TypeError: tasks[i] must be a Task instance, got <type>`. | `tests/unit/agents/test_agentteam_task_validation.py` |
-| `AgentTeam(agents)` (no tasks) | One task auto-generated per agent. | Empty `agents` fails at `start()`, not construction. | `tests/unit/agents/test_agentteam_task_validation.py::test_tasks_none_auto_generates` |
-| `Agent(handoffs=[other])` | Adds a `transfer_to_<name>` tool; the model decides whether to call it. Tool returns `"Handoff successful. <name> response: ..."`. | The model may not call the tool — that is a prompt issue, not a crash. Cycles/depth (`max_depth=10`) return an `"Error: ..."` string to the model rather than raising. Timeout (300 s) applies to async handoffs only. | `tests/test_handoff_compatibility.py`, `tests/unit/test_handoff_unified.py` |
-
-## 5. AG-UI
-
-| API / knob | Expected behavior | Sharp edge | Test |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `AGUI(agent=...).get_router()` | Returns a FastAPI `APIRouter`; mount it with `app.include_router(...)`. `POST {prefix}/agui` → SSE (`text/event-stream`); `GET {prefix}/status` → `{"status": "available"}`. | AGUI has no built-in server or default port — you run uvicorn and own startup/shutdown. `AGUI()` with no agent raises `ValueError`. | `tests/agui/test_agui.py`, `tests/agui/test_router.py` |
-| SSE events | `RUN_STARTED` → `TEXT_MESSAGE_*` / `TOOL_CALL_*` → `RUN_FINISHED`; exceptions become `RUN_ERROR`. | Multi-agent (`agents=`) sends the whole result as one text message, not token stream. Event order and `RUN_ERROR` emission over the endpoint are **not pinned** by a test; the router test only checks that a failing agent still yields HTTP 200. | `tests/agui/test_streaming.py::TestRunLifecycleEvents` (event construction), `tests/agui/test_router.py::TestAGUIEndpointErrorHandling::test_agui_endpoint_handles_agent_error` (HTTP only) |

-"""Attachment routing for multimodal prompts.
-
-The one invariant this module exists to enforce: **an attachment is never
-dropped silently**. Every input either becomes a model-visible content part, or
-produces a loud, actionable signal that names the file and says why.
-
-Two failure classes are treated differently on purpose:
-
-``raise`` -- *addressing* errors: the path does not exist, is a directory, is
-    unreadable, or the attachment is not a type this API accepts. These are
-    always caller mistakes (a typo, a wrong working directory, a stale path).
-    They are fully actionable at the call site, there is no useful degraded
-    answer, and continuing would produce a confident answer about a file the
-    model never saw. Raising is the only way the caller can tell.
-
-``warn + visible degrade`` -- *capability* limits: the file is there and
-    readable, but the target model cannot ingest that media type. The run can
-    still be useful, so we log a warning **and** put a marker part in the
-    prompt so the model itself knows a file was withheld or converted and can
-    say so. This is environmental, not a bug in the caller's code, and hard
-    failing would make a model swap a breaking change.
-
-Escape hatches (both default to the behaviour described above):
-
- ``PRAISONAI_ATTACHMENTS_ON_MISSING=warn`` downgrades the missing/unreadable
-  raise to a warning + visible marker part.
- ``PRAISONAI_ATTACHMENTS_STRICT=1`` escalates capability degrades to raises,
-  for pipelines that would rather fail than get a partial answer.
-
-Part shapes emitted (OpenAI/LiteLLM chat-completions style):
-
- image      -> ``{"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:...;base64,..."}}``
- pdf native -> ``{"type": "file", "file": {"filename": ..., "file_data": "data:application/pdf;base64,..."}}``
- audio      -> ``{"type": "input_audio", "input_audio": {"data": "<b64>", "format": "mp3"}}``

+    UnifiedExecutionMixin is unused and scheduled for removal (Issue #2644).
+    None of its methods are invoked by production code: the live execution paths
+    use ``_chat_impl`` / ``_execute_unified_chat_completion`` (in ``chat_mixin.py``)
+    and ``execute_tool`` (in ``tool_execution.py``), which are distinct from this
+    mixin's methods despite the similar names. This module remains importable and
+    emits a ``DeprecationWarning`` from its public methods during the deprecation
+    window; it will be removed from the ``Agent`` MRO after the cycle completes.
    Use ``Agent.chat()`` / ``Agent.achat()`` / ``Agent.execute_tool()`` instead.

-    NOTE: The event-loop bridge previously defined here as
-    ``_run_async_in_sync_context`` **is** live production code (the sync
-    tool-calling path in ``tool_execution.py`` depends on it). It has been
-    relocated to the stable ``async_safety.run_async_in_sync_context`` so that
-    removing this deprecated mixin from the MRO is a true no-op. The method here
-    is now only a thin shim kept for the deprecated public methods above.
-
 This module consolidates sync/async execution paths into a single async-first 
 implementation with a thin sync bridge, eliminating code duplication between
 chat()/achat() and execute_tool()/execute_tool_async().
