v0.31.12 fix: canonical Anthropic model IDs + tier routing surface + gbrain models CLI (#844)

* fix: canonical Anthropic model IDs + reverse alias + Opus 4.7 pricing Replace claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929 with claude-sonnet-4-6 everywhere it appears as a model ID. Starting with Claude 4.6, Anthropic API IDs are dateless and pinned — the date suffix was carried forward from Sonnet 4.5 by mistake, producing a phantom ID that 404'd on every call. Production impact in v0.31.6: isAvailable("chat") returned false in every code path that loaded the recipe's model list, and extractFactsFromTurn silently returned []. The headline real-time facts extraction feature was a no-op on the happy path. - gateway.ts:46 DEFAULT_CHAT_MODEL -> anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-6 - recipes/anthropic.ts: chat + expansion model lists drop date suffix; remove wrong-direction alias (claude-sonnet-4-6 -> -20250929); add reverse alias (-20250929 -> claude-sonnet-4-6) so stale user configs in models.dream.synthesize etc. keep working - facts/extract.ts: routes through resolveModel; both fallbacks corrected - anthropic-pricing.ts: Opus 4.7 corrected $15/$75 -> $5/$25 per Anthropic docs (the $15/$75 was Opus 4.0 pricing) - cross-modal-eval/runner.ts: PRICING now reads from ANTHROPIC_PRICING for Anthropic models instead of duplicating the map (single source of truth — fixes the drift trap that motivated this whole patch) Tests: cherry-pick PR #830's test/anthropic-model-ids.test.ts verbatim (6 recipe-shape guardrails). Update gateway-chat tests to assert reverse alias resolves correctly. Update budget-meter test for new Opus pricing.

Each tier maps to a class of work; override globally via models.default or per-tier via models.tier.<tier>. Codex flagged three real architecture issues in the v0.31.12 plan review; this commit addresses each. F3 — sync/async timing of configureGateway: - buildGatewayConfig stays synchronous (pre-engine-connect callers keep working) - New reconfigureGatewayWithEngine(engine) async function re-resolves expansion + chat defaults through resolveModel after engine.connect() - cli.ts wires the re-stamp into the post-connect path F4/F5 — softening assertTouchpoint was too broad: - Earlier plan was to flip native-recipe validation from throw to warn, affecting gateway.chat AND gateway.expand AND gateway.embed - Instead: per-gateway-instance recipe-models merge. assertTouchpoint gets an optional extendedModels Set; when the user opted into a model via config, it bypasses the throw. Source-code typos still fail fast. - Existing contract test (test/ai/gateway-chat.test.ts:106) preserved Tier defaults are TIER_DEFAULTS in model-config.ts. Resolution chain inserts at step 5 (between models.default and env var). Each existing resolveModel call site gains a tier: arg — think (deep), cycle/synthesize (reasoning + utility for verdict), patterns/drift (reasoning), auto-think (deep), facts/extract (reasoning). Plus 10 new tests pinning tier precedence, subagent-tier fallback when models.default is non-Anthropic, and the F6 alias-chain conflict case. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: subagent runtime enforcement for non-Anthropic models (3 layers) The subagent loop uses Anthropic's Messages API with prompt caching on system + tools. OpenAI/Google have different shapes. Setting models.default = openai:gpt-5.5 and routing the subagent there silently breaks the loop. Codex F1+F2+F13 in the v0.31.12 plan review pointed out that "warn at doctor" wasn't enough — handlers/subagent.ts:148 still did `const model = data.model ?? DEFAULT_MODEL` and called Anthropic directly, so a job submitted with data.model = openai:gpt-5.5 bypassed any tier logic and failed at runtime with a confusing provider error. Three layers of enforcement, defense in depth: Layer 1 (queue.ts:add) — submit-time guard. When name === 'subagent' and data.model is set, validate the provider. Non-Anthropic rejects before the job enters the queue. Layer 2 (handlers/subagent.ts) — tier-resolution fallback. The handler routes through resolveModel({ tier: 'subagent' }). If the chain resolves to a non-Anthropic provider (via models.default or models.tier.subagent), the resolver warns + falls back to TIER_DEFAULTS.subagent (claude-sonnet-4-6). Layer 3 (doctor.ts:checkSubagentProvider) — surfacing layer. Warns when models.tier.subagent or models.default is explicitly set to a non-Anthropic provider, with a paste-ready fix command. Lets users see config drift before submitting a job. Tests: 3 new cases in test/agent-cli.test.ts asserting the queue-level guard rejects non-Anthropic data.model. Existing test/subagent-handler suite still passes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: gbrain models CLI + doctor probe + silent-no-op regression test New gbrain models CLI gives the agent and user visibility into routing. Read mode prints the tier table, current overrides, per-task config, and aliases with source-of-truth attribution per row. Doctor subcommand fires a 1-token probe to each configured chat/expansion model and classifies failures (model_not_found / auth / rate_limit / network / unknown) so config-time invalid IDs surface without waiting for a production call that silently degrades. Per Codex F11 — no specific dollar cost claim in either the help text or the CHANGELOG (providers have minimum-output billing and prompt-cache rounding that vary). Probe is opt-in (gbrain doctor --probe-models), never auto-runs. --skip=<provider> narrows the matrix for cost-sensitive operators. Per Codex F7+F8+F15 (the structural regression gap): new test/facts-extract-silent-no-op.test.ts is THE regression test for the bug class that motivated v0.31.12. Five cases including the smoking-gun: when chat IS available, extractFactsFromTurn MUST actually call the chat transport, not silently return []. Uses the gateway's __setChatTransportForTests seam so it runs in every shard with no API key.

Add CLAUDE.md commands section for gbrain models + gbrain models doctor + power-user config recipes. Add README.md command-table rows for the same. Regenerate llms-full.txt so the bundled docs stay in sync.

The flag was never implemented — only `gbrain models doctor` landed as the probe surface. Caught by /document-release subagent. Drop the references rather than wire an untested flag at the last minute. The probe is reachable via `gbrain models doctor`; users who want it in doctor's output run that command separately.

 ## [0.31.12] - 2026-05-10
 **The chat default no longer 404s, and every Claude call gbrain makes is now one config key away from your preferred model.**
 gbrain v0.31.6 shipped `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` as the chat default. That model ID does not exist on the Anthropic API. It 404'd on every call. Worse, the failure mode wasn't loud: `isAvailable("chat")` returned false in every code path that loaded the recipe's model list, and `extractFactsFromTurn` silently returned `[]`. The headline v0.31.6 feature, real-time fact extraction during sync, was a no-op on the happy path for most users.
 This release fixes the model ID, adds a tier-based routing surface so power users can swap defaults in one config key, and ships `gbrain models doctor` as the structural probe against this exact bug class. Credit to `garrytan-agents` for the initial fix submitted as PR #830; the recipe diff and the structural test file are pulled verbatim. This release adds a reverse alias for stale user configs, the four-tier routing surface, the `gbrain models` CLI, three layers of subagent enforcement, and a real regression test for the silent-no-op bug class.
 ### What you can now do
 **Use any model for everything with one config key.** `gbrain config set models.default opus` routes every internal call (chat, expansion, synthesis, classification) through Opus 4.7. Switch to `models.default openai:gpt-5.5` and gbrain will route every call to GPT-5.5, except for the subagent loop, which falls back to `claude-sonnet-4-6` automatically because the loop is Anthropic-only by construction.
 **Tier-level control when you want finer than "use opus for everything."** Four tiers: `utility` (haiku-class, fast classification + expansion + verdict), `reasoning` (sonnet-class, default chat + synthesis), `deep` (opus-class, expensive reasoning), `subagent` (Anthropic-only multi-turn tool loop). Override each independently via `gbrain config set models.tier.<tier> <model>`. Per-task keys like `models.dream.synthesize` still beat tier overrides because they are more specific.
 **`gbrain models` shows the live routing.** Read mode prints the four tier defaults, the resolved value for each, every per-task override, the alias map, and a source-of-truth column showing exactly where each model came from (`default`, `config: models.tier.reasoning`, `env: GBRAIN_MODEL`). `--json` for machine-readable output.
 **`gbrain models doctor` probes each configured model with a 1-token call** and reports reachability with the provider's error message. This is the structural fix for the bug class that produced this release: an invalid model ID surfaces at config time, not at the next agent-run that silently degrades.
 **Subagent jobs reject non-Anthropic models at submit time.** The minion queue's `add()` method now refuses `subagent` jobs with `data.model` pointing at a non-Anthropic provider. Three layers of enforcement: submit-time guard, tier-resolution fallback in `resolveModel`, and a `subagent_provider` check in `gbrain doctor`. You cannot accidentally route the Anthropic Messages API tool-loop to OpenAI and watch it fail at runtime.
 **Opus 4.7 pricing is correct** (`$5/$25 per MTok`, was `$15/$75` left over from Opus 4). The budget meter and cross-modal-eval estimator both read from `src/core/anthropic-pricing.ts` as the single source of truth now, not two duplicated maps.
 ### Numbers that matter
 | Surface | Before (v0.31.6) | After (v0.31.12) |
 |---|---|---|
 | Chat default model ID | `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` (404s) | `claude-sonnet-4-6` (valid) |
 | `isAvailable("chat")` on default install | false (silently) | true |
 | `extractFactsFromTurn` on default install | returns `[]` silently | actually extracts facts |
 | Config keys to swap models everywhere | n/a (hardcoded per call) | 1 (`models.default`) |
 | Provider-mismatch enforcement layers for subagent | 0 | 3 (submit/runtime/doctor) |
 | Reachability check at config time | n/a | `gbrain models doctor` |
 | Sources of truth for Anthropic pricing | 2 (duplicated, diverged) | 1 (`ANTHROPIC_PRICING`) |
 ### What this means for you
 If you upgraded to v0.31.6 hoping for real-time facts extraction during sync and noticed nothing got extracted, this is the fix. Run `gbrain upgrade && gbrain doctor` and the chat-default check returns to green. The new `subagent_provider` check surfaces any non-Anthropic config drift.
 If you are a power user, the boring path stays boring: `gbrain config set models.default opus` and you're done. The advanced path is `gbrain models` to see what's live, `gbrain models doctor` to probe reachability before a long agent run, and `models.tier.*` keys for tier-specific overrides. The skill at `skills/conventions/model-routing.md` documents the full precedence chain and override recipes.
 If you had a `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` string sitting in `facts.extraction_model` or `models.dream.synthesize` from v0.31.6, you do not need to update it. A reverse alias rewrites that broken ID back to the canonical `claude-sonnet-4-6` automatically. If you want to clean it up: `gbrain config set facts.extraction_model anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-6`.
 ## To take advantage of v0.31.12
 `gbrain upgrade` should do this automatically. If it didn't, or if `gbrain doctor` warns about the chat default:
 1. **Verify the routing is healthy:**
   ```bash
   gbrain doctor
   gbrain models
   ```
   The `subagent_provider` check should be `ok`. `gbrain models` should show `tier.reasoning` resolving to `claude-sonnet-4-6` (or your override).
 2. **Optional: probe reachability of every configured model.** ~1 token per model, runs in under 5 seconds. Catches the next 404 before it ships.
   ```bash
   gbrain models doctor
   ```
 3. **Power-user override (any one of these):**
   ```bash
   # Use opus for everything
   gbrain config set models.default opus
   # Use sonnet for the default workhorse but opus for deep reasoning
   gbrain config set models.tier.deep opus
   # Use a custom alias as the global default
   gbrain config set models.aliases.frontier anthropic:claude-opus-4-7
   gbrain config set models.default frontier
   ```
 4. **If `gbrain doctor` still flags anything,** please file an issue: https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain/issues — include the output of `gbrain doctor` and `gbrain models --json`.
 ### Itemized changes
 #### Bug fix sweep + reverse alias
 - `src/core/ai/gateway.ts`: `DEFAULT_CHAT_MODEL` corrected to `anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-6` (was the v0.31.6 phantom `-20250929`).
 - `src/core/ai/recipes/anthropic.ts`: chat and expansion `models:` lists drop the phantom date suffix. The wrong-direction alias (`claude-sonnet-4-6 → claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929`) is removed; a reverse alias (`claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929 → claude-sonnet-4-6`) keeps stale user configs working.
 - `src/core/facts/extract.ts`: routes through `resolveModel({tier: 'reasoning'})` instead of hardcoding the broken default.
 - `test/anthropic-model-ids.test.ts`: 6 structural test cases pinning the recipe shape (verbatim cherry-pick of PR #830, plus the reverse-alias rescue case).
 #### Tier system + recipe-models merge
 - `src/core/model-config.ts`: new `ModelTier` type, new `TIER_DEFAULTS` constant, new `tier?` field on `ResolveModelOpts`. Tier resolution is step 5 in the resolution chain (after `models.default`, before env var). Tier defaults win over caller fallback when no override is set.
 - `src/core/ai/model-resolver.ts`: `assertTouchpoint()` gains an optional 4th arg `extendedModels` so per-gateway-instance recipe extension can permit user-supplied model strings without breaking the source-code-typo failure path. Replaces the earlier plan to soften the validator wholesale, which Codex flagged as too broad.
 - `src/core/ai/gateway.ts`: new `reconfigureGatewayWithEngine(engine)` async function called from `cli.ts` after `engine.connect()` to re-resolve expansion + chat defaults through `resolveModel()`. Configured models register into a per-instance extended-models set so the gateway routes them without recipe modification.
 - Every existing `resolveModel()` call site gains a `tier:` argument: think → deep, cycle/synthesize → reasoning (+ utility for verdict), cycle/patterns → reasoning, cycle/drift → reasoning, cycle/auto-think → deep, facts/extract → reasoning.
 #### Subagent runtime enforcement (3 layers)
 - Layer 1 (`src/core/minions/queue.ts`): `MinionQueue.add()` rejects `subagent` jobs with a non-Anthropic `data.model` before the job enters the queue.
 - Layer 2 (`src/core/minions/handlers/subagent.ts`): handler routes through `resolveModel({tier: 'subagent'})`. If config resolves to a non-Anthropic provider, the resolver warns and falls back to `TIER_DEFAULTS.subagent` (`claude-sonnet-4-6`).
 - Layer 3 (`src/commands/doctor.ts`): new `subagent_provider` check warns when `models.tier.subagent` or `models.default` resolves to a non-Anthropic provider, with a paste-ready fix command.
 #### `gbrain models` CLI + probe
 - `src/commands/models.ts`: read mode prints routing table + source attribution. `doctor` subcommand fires a 1-token `gateway.chat()` probe to each configured chat/expansion model and classifies failures into `{model_not_found, auth, rate_limit, network, unknown}`. `--skip=<provider>` narrows the probe matrix.
 - Wired into the cli.ts dispatch table and `CLI_ONLY` set.
 #### Pricing dedupe
 - `src/core/anthropic-pricing.ts`: Opus 4.7 corrected from `$15/$75` to `$5/$25` per Anthropic's published pricing (the old number was from Opus 4 generation). Opus 4.6 also corrected.
 - `src/core/cross-modal-eval/runner.ts`: pricing map now reads from `ANTHROPIC_PRICING` for Anthropic models instead of duplicating the values. Single source of truth.
 #### Tests
 - `test/facts-extract-silent-no-op.test.ts` (NEW, 5 cases): the regression test for the bug class. Wires gateway with the v0.31.6 broken model ID and asserts the reverse alias rescues `isAvailable("chat")`. Also asserts the smoking-gun: when chat is available, `extractFactsFromTurn` actually calls the chat transport (does not silently return `[]`).
 - `test/model-config.serial.test.ts`: 9 new cases covering tier precedence, `models.default` beats tier, `tier.subagent` falls back to Anthropic when default is non-Anthropic, alias-chain conflict (Codex F6 regression guard).
 - `test/agent-cli.test.ts`: 3 new cases for the queue submit-time subagent guard (Layer 1).
 - `test/ai/gateway-chat.test.ts`: existing alias-resolution tests rewritten to reflect the new direction (4.6+ dateless is canonical, reverse alias rescues stale strings).
 - `test/anthropic-model-ids.test.ts` (NEW, 6 cases): recipe-shape guardrails, verbatim cherry-pick of PR #830 plus reverse-alias case.
 #### Skills + docs
 - `skills/conventions/model-routing.md`: rewritten to cover both the new tier system AND the existing subagent spawn routing in one canonical doc. Power-user recipes, three-layer subagent enforcement explanation, override priority chain.
 ### For contributors
 - **Iron rule when adding a new LLM call:** route through `resolveModel()` with a `tier:` argument. Do not hardcode a model string as a fallback. The v0.31.6 chat-default failure mode was exactly this — a hardcoded const fallback bypassed the resolver and shipped a phantom ID. The tier system + `gbrain models doctor` is the structural fix; future drift will be caught by the recipe-shape test in `test/anthropic-model-ids.test.ts`.
 - **The `gbrain models doctor` probe is opt-in.** Do not auto-fire it on every CLI invocation; that would burn tokens for users who just want `gbrain put-page`. Operators run it explicitly when they suspect a config issue or after upgrading.

 - `src/core/ai/types.ts` — provider/recipe types. **v0.28.7 (#680):** `EmbeddingTouchpoint` extended with optional `chars_per_token` (default 4 chars/token, matching OpenAI tiktoken on English) and `safety_factor` (default 0.8, budget-utilization ceiling). Both consulted only when `max_batch_tokens` is also set. Voyage declares `chars_per_token=1` + `safety_factor=0.5` to handle dense payloads (CJK/JSON/base64) that overshoot tiktoken. The pre-split budget is `max_batch_tokens × safety_factor / chars_per_token`. **v0.28.11 (#719):** `EmbeddingTouchpoint.multimodal_models?: string[]` model-level allow-list for recipes that mix text-only + multimodal models under one touchpoint (Voyage's 12 models share `supports_multimodal: true` but only `voyage-multimodal-3` accepts `/multimodalembeddings`). When omitted, recipe-level `supports_multimodal` is sufficient. `AIGatewayConfig.embedding_multimodal_model?: string` lets `embedMultimodal()` route to a different model than `embedding_model` — brains using OpenAI for text can use Voyage for images without flipping the primary embedding pipeline.
 - `src/core/ai/gateway.ts` — unified seam for every AI call. **v0.28.7 (#680):** module-scoped `_embedTransport` defaulting to AI SDK `embedMany`, with `__setEmbedTransportForTests(fn)` test seam so tests drive the public `embed()` function with a stubbed transport instead of probing private helpers. `splitByTokenBudget` and `isTokenLimitError` are now exported `@internal` — pure functions reused directly by the test file. Module-level `_shrinkState: Map<recipeId, {factor, consecutiveSuccesses}>` halves the recipe's effective `safety_factor` on token-limit miss (floor 0.05) and heals back ×1.5 toward the ceiling after `SHRINK_HEAL_AFTER=10` consecutive successes. `configureGateway()` walks every registered recipe at construction time and emits a once-per-process stderr warning for any embedding touchpoint missing `max_batch_tokens` (excluding the canonical OpenAI fast-path recipe). `resetGateway()` clears `_shrinkState`, the warned-set, and restores the real transport. ASCII flow diagram embedded in the `embed()` JSDoc covers the routing decision, recursion + halving, and shrinkState lifecycle. **v0.28.11 (#719):** `embedMultimodal()` reads `cfg.embedding_multimodal_model` first (falls back to `cfg.embedding_model` for single-model setups). After the existing recipe-level `supports_multimodal` fast-fail, validates the resolved model against `touchpoint.multimodal_models` when declared — closes the Voyage-text-only-model-into-multimodal-endpoint footgun before any HTTP call (Codex F1 from PR review). New `getMultimodalModel()` accessor mirrors `getEmbeddingModel` / `getChatModel` so doctor and integration tests can read the gateway state.
 - `src/core/ai/recipes/voyage.ts` — Voyage AI openai-compatible recipe. **v0.28.7 (#680):** declares `chars_per_token=1` + `safety_factor=0.5` so the gateway pre-splits Voyage batches at a 60K-character budget (50% of 120K-token cap with the dense-tokenizer ratio). Closes the v0.27 backfill loop where ~26% of the corpus stayed un-embedded because tiktoken-grounded budgeting silently undercounted Voyage's actual token usage. **v0.28.11 (#719):** declares `multimodal_models: ['voyage-multimodal-3']` so the gateway rejects text-only Voyage models pointed at the multimodal endpoint with a clear `AIConfigError` instead of waiting for Voyage's HTTP 400.
 - `src/core/ai/recipes/anthropic.ts` — Anthropic recipe (chat + expansion touchpoints). **v0.31.12:** chat and expansion `models:` lists drop the v0.31.6 phantom `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` date suffix — canonical id is `claude-sonnet-4-6`. The wrong-direction alias `claude-sonnet-4-6 → claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` is removed; a reverse alias `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929 → claude-sonnet-4-6` keeps stale user configs working (rescues `facts.extraction_model` and `models.dream.synthesize` set by v0.31.6 installs). Recipe-shape regression pinned by `test/anthropic-model-ids.test.ts` (6 cases, verbatim cherry-pick of PR #830 plus the reverse-alias rescue case).
 - `src/core/anthropic-pricing.ts` — Single source of truth for Anthropic model pricing (per-MTok input/output). **v0.31.12:** Opus 4.7 corrected from `$15/$75` to `$5/$25` (the old number was from Opus 4 generation, never refreshed when 4.7 shipped); Opus 4.6 also corrected. Consumed by `src/core/budget-meter.ts` and `src/core/cross-modal-eval/runner.ts` — the cross-modal estimator now reads `ANTHROPIC_PRICING` for Anthropic models instead of duplicating the table, killing the v0.31.6 drift bug class.
 - `src/core/model-config.ts` — Model-string resolution (the seam every internal LLM call walks through). **v0.31.12:** four-tier system (`ModelTier = 'utility' | 'reasoning' | 'deep' | 'subagent'`) with `TIER_DEFAULTS` (utility→haiku-4-5, reasoning→sonnet-4-6, deep→opus-4-7, subagent→sonnet-4-6) and `tier?: ModelTier` on `ResolveModelOpts`. Resolution chain is now 8 steps: cliFlag → deprecated key → config key → `models.default` → `models.tier.<tier>` → env var → `TIER_DEFAULTS[tier]` → caller fallback. Two new exports — `isAnthropicProvider(modelString)` checks `provider:model` prefix OR `claude-` bare-id pattern, and `enforceSubagentAnthropic()` is the layer-2 runtime guard: when `tier === 'subagent'` resolves to a non-Anthropic provider, it emits a once-per-`(source, model)` stderr warn AND falls back to `TIER_DEFAULTS.subagent` instead of letting the Anthropic Messages API tool-loop attempt to run on OpenAI/Gemini. `_resetDeprecationWarningsForTest()` now also clears `_subagentTierWarningsEmitted` so tests re-emit.
 - `src/core/ai/model-resolver.ts` — Recipe-touchpoint validator. **v0.31.12:** `assertTouchpoint(recipe, touchpoint, modelId, extendedModels?)` gains an optional 4th `extendedModels: ReadonlySet<string>` argument. When the modelId is in that set, the native-recipe allowlist throw is bypassed — the user explicitly opted into this model via config so we let provider rejection surface as `model_not_found` at HTTP call time (and `gbrain models doctor` catches it earlier). Default code paths with hardcoded model strings MUST NOT pass `extendedModels` — typos in source code still fail fast. Replaces the earlier plan to soften the validator wholesale (Codex F4/F5 in plan review flagged that as too broad — it would have removed the fail-fast contract for chat + expand + embed all three).
 - `src/core/ai/gateway.ts` extension (v0.31.12) — new module-scoped `_extendedModels: Map<providerId, Set<modelId>>` registry feeds `assertTouchpoint`'s 4th-arg path. New `reconfigureGatewayWithEngine(engine)` async function is called from `cli.ts` after `engine.connect()` (and before every command except `CLI_ONLY` no-DB commands) — re-resolves expansion + chat defaults through `resolveModel()` so `models.tier.*` and `models.default` overrides apply to expansion + chat both. `DEFAULT_CHAT_MODEL` corrected to `anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-6` (was the v0.31.6 phantom `-20250929`). New `__setChatTransportForTests` seam mirrors `__setEmbedTransportForTests` so tests drive `chat()` with a stubbed transport.
 - `src/core/minions/queue.ts` extension (v0.31.12) — `MinionQueue.add()` now rejects `subagent` jobs whose `data.model` resolves through `isAnthropicProvider()` to a non-Anthropic provider. Lazy-imports `model-config.ts` to avoid pulling engine types into queue's eager-load surface. Layer 1 of the three-layer subagent provider enforcement (Codex F1+F2 in plan review). Layers 2 + 3 live in `src/core/model-config.ts` (`enforceSubagentAnthropic` runtime fallback) and `src/commands/doctor.ts` (`subagent_provider` check). Pinned by 3 cases in `test/agent-cli.test.ts`.
 - `src/commands/models.ts` (v0.31.12) — `gbrain models [--json]` read-only routing dashboard: prints tier defaults (`utility`/`reasoning`/`deep`/`subagent`), the resolved value for each (re-walking the resolution chain to attribute properly), every per-task override (11 `PER_TASK_KEYS` entries — `models.dream.synthesize`, `models.dream.patterns`, `models.drift`, `models.auto_think`, `models.think`, `models.subagent`, `facts.extraction_model`, `models.eval.longmemeval`, `models.expansion`, `models.chat`, `models.dream.synthesize_verdict`), the alias map (defaults + user overrides), and a source-of-truth column showing `default` / `config: <key>` / `env: <VAR>`. `gbrain models doctor [--skip=<provider>] [--json]` fires a 1-token `gateway.chat()` probe against each configured chat + expansion model and classifies failures into `{model_not_found, auth, rate_limit, network, unknown}` — the structural fix for the v0.31.6 silent-no-op bug class. Wired into `cli.ts` dispatch table + `CLI_ONLY` set.
 - `src/commands/doctor.ts` extension (v0.31.12) — new `subagent_provider` check (layer 3 of 3 — Codex F13). Warns when `models.tier.subagent` is explicitly set to a non-Anthropic provider (fail-loud since the user clearly meant it — message names the bad value and prints the paste-ready fix command `gbrain config set models.tier.subagent anthropic:claude-sonnet-4-6`); also warns when `models.default` would sneak `subagent` into a non-Anthropic provider via tier inheritance. OK status when subagent tier resolves to Anthropic. Tests cover all three paths in `test/doctor.test.ts`.

New `extractDelegationTargets()` parses `> **Convention:**`, `> **Filing rule:**`, and inline backtick references. DRY suppression is proximity-based via `DRY_PROXIMITY_LINES = 40`.

Zero-dependency module imported by both `doctor.ts` and `check-resolvable.ts`. Parameterized `startDir` makes tests hermetic. **v0.31.7:** read-path / write-path split. `autoDetectSkillsDir` (shared, read+write-safe) gains tier-0 `$GBRAIN_SKILLS_DIR` explicit operator override (Docker mounts, CI, monorepo subdirs) ahead of the existing 4-tier chain. New `autoDetectSkillsDirReadOnly` wraps it with a tier-5 install-path fallback that walks up from `fileURLToPath(import.meta.url)` and gates on `isGbrainRepoRoot` so unrelated repos can't false-positive. Read-path callers (`doctor`, `check-resolvable`, `routing-eval`) use the read-only variant; write-path callers (`skillpack install`, `skillify scaffold`, `post-install-advisory`) deliberately stay on the shared function so `gbrain skillpack install` from `~` cannot silently retarget the bundled gbrain repo's `skills/` instead of the user's actual workspace. Two new `SkillsDirSource` variants: `'env_explicit'`, `'install_path'`. New `AUTO_DETECT_HINT_READ_ONLY` documents the extra tier. The D6 `--fix` safety gate in `doctor.ts` + `check-resolvable.ts` refuses auto-repair when `detected.source === 'install_path'` so `gbrain doctor --fix` from `~` cannot silently rewrite the bundled install tree.
 - `src/commands/check-resolvable.ts` — Standalone CLI wrapper (v0.16.4) over `checkResolvable()`. Exports `parseFlags`, `resolveSkillsDir`, `DEFERRED`, `runCheckResolvable`. Exit rule: **1 on any issue (warnings OR errors)**, stricter than doctor's `ok` flag — honors README:259. Stable JSON envelope `{ok, skillsDir, report, autoFix, deferred, error, message}` — same shape on success and error paths. `--fix` path runs `autoFixDryViolations` BEFORE `checkResolvable` (same ordering as doctor). `scripts/skillify-check.ts` subprocess-calls `gbrain check-resolvable --json` (cached per process) and fails loud on binary-missing — no silent false-pass. **v0.19:** AGENTS.md workspaces now resolve natively (see `src/core/resolver-filenames.ts`) — gbrain inspects the 107-skill OpenClaw deployment whether the routing file is `RESOLVER.md` or `AGENTS.md`. `DEFERRED[]` is empty — Checks 5 + 6 shipped as real code, not issue URLs. **v0.31.7:** the resolver lookup switched from first-match-wins to the multi-file merge in `src/core/check-resolvable.ts` — entries collected from every `RESOLVER.md` / `AGENTS.md` across the skills dir AND its parent, deduped by `skillPath` (first occurrence wins). Lifted reachable skills on the reference OpenClaw layout from 37/224 to 200/224 — the deployment ships a thin `skills/RESOLVER.md` (~40 entries from skillpack) plus a fat `../AGENTS.md` (200+ entries, the real dispatcher), and the previous code only saw the first one. The CLI also switched to `autoDetectSkillsDirReadOnly` so `cd ~ && gbrain check-resolvable` finds the bundled skills via the install-path fallback. `--fix` carries the same D6 safety gate as `gbrain doctor --fix`: refuses to write when `detected.source === 'install_path'`.

 Key commands added in v0.31.12 (model tier system + routing CLI):
 - `gbrain models [--json]` — read-only routing dashboard. Prints the four tier defaults (`utility`/`reasoning`/`deep`/`subagent`), the resolved value for each (after re-walking `models.default` → `models.tier.<tier>` → env → `TIER_DEFAULTS`), every per-task override (`models.dream.synthesize`, `models.dream.patterns`, `models.drift`, `models.auto_think`, `models.think`, `models.subagent`, `facts.extraction_model`, `models.eval.longmemeval`, `models.expansion`, `models.chat`, `models.dream.synthesize_verdict`), the alias map (defaults + user overrides), and a source-of-truth column (`default` / `config: <key>` / `env: <VAR>`).
 - `gbrain models doctor [--skip=<provider>] [--json]` — 1-token reachability probe against each configured chat + expansion model. Classifies failures into `{model_not_found, auth, rate_limit, network, unknown}`. The structural fix for the bug class that motivated v0.31.12 (v0.31.6's `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` chat default 404'd silently on every install).
 - Power-user model routing via config keys:
  - `gbrain config set models.default opus` — route every internal call (chat, expansion, synthesis, classification) through Opus 4.7. Subagent loop still falls back to `claude-sonnet-4-6` automatically (Anthropic-only by construction).
  - `gbrain config set models.tier.<tier> <model>` — override one tier independently (`utility` / `reasoning` / `deep` / `subagent`).
  - `gbrain config set models.aliases.frontier anthropic:claude-opus-4-7` — define an alias, then `gbrain config set models.default frontier`.
  - Per-task keys (e.g. `gbrain config set models.dream.synthesize <model>`) still beat tier overrides because they are more specific.
 - New `subagent_provider` check in `gbrain doctor` surfaces config drift if `models.tier.subagent` or `models.default` would route the Anthropic Messages API tool-loop to a non-Anthropic provider.
 - The skill at `skills/conventions/model-routing.md` was rewritten to cover both the new tier system AND the existing subagent spawn routing in one canonical doc (power-user recipes, three-layer enforcement explanation, override priority chain).
 Key commands added in v0.28.1 (LongMemEval in the box):
 - `gbrain eval longmemeval <dataset.jsonl>` — run the public LongMemEval benchmark against gbrain hybrid retrieval. Flags: `--limit N`, `--model M`, `--retrieval-only`, `--keyword-only`, `--expansion`, `--top-k K`, `--output FILE`. One in-memory PGLite per benchmark run; `TRUNCATE` between questions over runtime-enumerated `pg_tables` (schema-migration-safe); `~/.gbrain` never opened. `--expansion` defaults OFF (deterministic, no per-query Haiku). Default model resolves through `resolveModel()` 6-tier chain with new `models.eval.longmemeval` config key. `gbrain eval longmemeval --help` works without a configured brain (hermeticity gate).
 - Sanitization parity with takes: `INJECTION_PATTERNS` exported from `src/core/think/sanitize.ts`. The benchmark harness re-uses the same pattern set so adding a new injection pattern automatically covers takes AND benchmarks.

 - `src/core/ai/types.ts` — provider/recipe types. **v0.28.7 (#680):** `EmbeddingTouchpoint` extended with optional `chars_per_token` (default 4 chars/token, matching OpenAI tiktoken on English) and `safety_factor` (default 0.8, budget-utilization ceiling). Both consulted only when `max_batch_tokens` is also set. Voyage declares `chars_per_token=1` + `safety_factor=0.5` to handle dense payloads (CJK/JSON/base64) that overshoot tiktoken. The pre-split budget is `max_batch_tokens × safety_factor / chars_per_token`. **v0.28.11 (#719):** `EmbeddingTouchpoint.multimodal_models?: string[]` model-level allow-list for recipes that mix text-only + multimodal models under one touchpoint (Voyage's 12 models share `supports_multimodal: true` but only `voyage-multimodal-3` accepts `/multimodalembeddings`). When omitted, recipe-level `supports_multimodal` is sufficient. `AIGatewayConfig.embedding_multimodal_model?: string` lets `embedMultimodal()` route to a different model than `embedding_model` — brains using OpenAI for text can use Voyage for images without flipping the primary embedding pipeline.
 - `src/core/ai/gateway.ts` — unified seam for every AI call. **v0.28.7 (#680):** module-scoped `_embedTransport` defaulting to AI SDK `embedMany`, with `__setEmbedTransportForTests(fn)` test seam so tests drive the public `embed()` function with a stubbed transport instead of probing private helpers. `splitByTokenBudget` and `isTokenLimitError` are now exported `@internal` — pure functions reused directly by the test file. Module-level `_shrinkState: Map<recipeId, {factor, consecutiveSuccesses}>` halves the recipe's effective `safety_factor` on token-limit miss (floor 0.05) and heals back ×1.5 toward the ceiling after `SHRINK_HEAL_AFTER=10` consecutive successes. `configureGateway()` walks every registered recipe at construction time and emits a once-per-process stderr warning for any embedding touchpoint missing `max_batch_tokens` (excluding the canonical OpenAI fast-path recipe). `resetGateway()` clears `_shrinkState`, the warned-set, and restores the real transport. ASCII flow diagram embedded in the `embed()` JSDoc covers the routing decision, recursion + halving, and shrinkState lifecycle. **v0.28.11 (#719):** `embedMultimodal()` reads `cfg.embedding_multimodal_model` first (falls back to `cfg.embedding_model` for single-model setups). After the existing recipe-level `supports_multimodal` fast-fail, validates the resolved model against `touchpoint.multimodal_models` when declared — closes the Voyage-text-only-model-into-multimodal-endpoint footgun before any HTTP call (Codex F1 from PR review). New `getMultimodalModel()` accessor mirrors `getEmbeddingModel` / `getChatModel` so doctor and integration tests can read the gateway state.
 - `src/core/ai/recipes/voyage.ts` — Voyage AI openai-compatible recipe. **v0.28.7 (#680):** declares `chars_per_token=1` + `safety_factor=0.5` so the gateway pre-splits Voyage batches at a 60K-character budget (50% of 120K-token cap with the dense-tokenizer ratio). Closes the v0.27 backfill loop where ~26% of the corpus stayed un-embedded because tiktoken-grounded budgeting silently undercounted Voyage's actual token usage. **v0.28.11 (#719):** declares `multimodal_models: ['voyage-multimodal-3']` so the gateway rejects text-only Voyage models pointed at the multimodal endpoint with a clear `AIConfigError` instead of waiting for Voyage's HTTP 400.
 - `src/core/ai/recipes/anthropic.ts` — Anthropic recipe (chat + expansion touchpoints). **v0.31.12:** chat and expansion `models:` lists drop the v0.31.6 phantom `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` date suffix — canonical id is `claude-sonnet-4-6`. The wrong-direction alias `claude-sonnet-4-6 → claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` is removed; a reverse alias `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929 → claude-sonnet-4-6` keeps stale user configs working (rescues `facts.extraction_model` and `models.dream.synthesize` set by v0.31.6 installs). Recipe-shape regression pinned by `test/anthropic-model-ids.test.ts` (6 cases, verbatim cherry-pick of PR #830 plus the reverse-alias rescue case).
 - `src/core/anthropic-pricing.ts` — Single source of truth for Anthropic model pricing (per-MTok input/output). **v0.31.12:** Opus 4.7 corrected from `$15/$75` to `$5/$25` (the old number was from Opus 4 generation, never refreshed when 4.7 shipped); Opus 4.6 also corrected. Consumed by `src/core/budget-meter.ts` and `src/core/cross-modal-eval/runner.ts` — the cross-modal estimator now reads `ANTHROPIC_PRICING` for Anthropic models instead of duplicating the table, killing the v0.31.6 drift bug class.
 - `src/core/model-config.ts` — Model-string resolution (the seam every internal LLM call walks through). **v0.31.12:** four-tier system (`ModelTier = 'utility' | 'reasoning' | 'deep' | 'subagent'`) with `TIER_DEFAULTS` (utility→haiku-4-5, reasoning→sonnet-4-6, deep→opus-4-7, subagent→sonnet-4-6) and `tier?: ModelTier` on `ResolveModelOpts`. Resolution chain is now 8 steps: cliFlag → deprecated key → config key → `models.default` → `models.tier.<tier>` → env var → `TIER_DEFAULTS[tier]` → caller fallback. Two new exports — `isAnthropicProvider(modelString)` checks `provider:model` prefix OR `claude-` bare-id pattern, and `enforceSubagentAnthropic()` is the layer-2 runtime guard: when `tier === 'subagent'` resolves to a non-Anthropic provider, it emits a once-per-`(source, model)` stderr warn AND falls back to `TIER_DEFAULTS.subagent` instead of letting the Anthropic Messages API tool-loop attempt to run on OpenAI/Gemini. `_resetDeprecationWarningsForTest()` now also clears `_subagentTierWarningsEmitted` so tests re-emit.
 - `src/core/ai/model-resolver.ts` — Recipe-touchpoint validator. **v0.31.12:** `assertTouchpoint(recipe, touchpoint, modelId, extendedModels?)` gains an optional 4th `extendedModels: ReadonlySet<string>` argument. When the modelId is in that set, the native-recipe allowlist throw is bypassed — the user explicitly opted into this model via config so we let provider rejection surface as `model_not_found` at HTTP call time (and `gbrain models doctor` catches it earlier). Default code paths with hardcoded model strings MUST NOT pass `extendedModels` — typos in source code still fail fast. Replaces the earlier plan to soften the validator wholesale (Codex F4/F5 in plan review flagged that as too broad — it would have removed the fail-fast contract for chat + expand + embed all three).

  - Per-task keys (e.g. `gbrain config set models.dream.synthesize <model>`) still beat tier overrides because they are more specific.
 - New `subagent_provider` check in `gbrain doctor` surfaces config drift if `models.tier.subagent` or `models.default` would route the Anthropic Messages API tool-loop to a non-Anthropic provider.
 - The skill at `skills/conventions/model-routing.md` was rewritten to cover both the new tier system AND the existing subagent spawn routing in one canonical doc (power-user recipes, three-layer enforcement explanation, override priority chain).
 Key commands added in v0.28.1 (LongMemEval in the box):
 - `gbrain eval longmemeval <dataset.jsonl>` — run the public LongMemEval benchmark against gbrain hybrid retrieval. Flags: `--limit N`, `--model M`, `--retrieval-only`, `--keyword-only`, `--expansion`, `--top-k K`, `--output FILE`. One in-memory PGLite per benchmark run; `TRUNCATE` between questions over runtime-enumerated `pg_tables` (schema-migration-safe); `~/.gbrain` never opened. `--expansion` defaults OFF (deterministic, no per-query Haiku). Default model resolves through `resolveModel()` 6-tier chain with new `models.eval.longmemeval` config key. `gbrain eval longmemeval --help` works without a configured brain (hermeticity gate).
 - Sanitization parity with takes: `INJECTION_PATTERNS` exported from `src/core/think/sanitize.ts`. The benchmark harness re-uses the same pattern set so adding a new injection pattern automatically covers takes AND benchmarks.

 # Model Routing Convention
-When spawning sub-agents, choose the right model for the task.
+Two distinct concerns share this name. Read both — they apply at different
 moments.
-## Routing Table
+## 1. gbrain's internal tier system (v0.31.12+)
 This is how gbrain itself picks which Claude/OpenAI/Google model runs each
 internal task (chat, expansion, synthesis, classification, etc.).
 Four tiers:
 | Tier | Purpose | Default | Examples |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | `utility` | fast classification, expansion, verdict, dedup | `claude-haiku-4-5-20251001` | query expansion, facts contradiction classifier, dream synthesize verdict |
 | `reasoning` | default chat, synthesis, generation | `claude-sonnet-4-6` | gateway chat, dream synthesize, patterns, facts extraction |
 | `deep` | slow, expensive reasoning | `claude-opus-4-7` | `gbrain think`, auto-think, cross-modal eval slot B |
 | `subagent` | Anthropic-only multi-turn tool loop | `claude-sonnet-4-6` | `gbrain agent run` |
 Override priority (highest first):
 1. CLI flag (`--model opus`)
 2. Per-task config (`gbrain config set models.dream.synthesize opus`)
 3. Deprecated per-task config (stderr-warns once, then honored)
 4. **Global default** (`gbrain config set models.default opus`) — single hammer
 5. **Tier override** (`gbrain config set models.tier.reasoning opus`)
 6. Env var (`GBRAIN_MODEL=opus`)
 7. Tier default (the table above)
 8. Hardcoded caller fallback
 Power-user recipes:
 ```bash
 # Use opus for everything
 gbrain config set models.default opus
 # Use opus only for reasoning + deep, keep haiku for utility
 gbrain config set models.tier.reasoning opus
 gbrain config set models.tier.deep opus
 # Custom alias, then use it everywhere
 gbrain config set models.aliases.frontier anthropic:claude-opus-4-7
 gbrain config set models.default frontier
 ```
 Visibility:
 ```bash
 gbrain models                    # print current routing table
 gbrain models doctor             # 1-token probe to each configured model
 ```
 **Subagent tier exists because the loop is Anthropic-only.** The handler
 uses Messages API + prompt caching on system + tools. Setting
 `models.default = openai:gpt-5.5` silently breaks the loop, so we isolate
 `tier.subagent`. Three enforcement layers: submit-time guard in
 `MinionQueue.add`, tier-resolution fallback in `resolveModel`, doctor
 `subagent_provider` check.
 When adding a new LLM call, route through `resolveModel()` with a tier —
 never hardcode a model string. The v0.31.6 chat default
 (`claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929`) was a phantom ID that 404'd the Anthropic
 API and made `extractFactsFromTurn` silently return `[]`. The tier system
 + doctor probe is the structural fix for that bug class.
 ## 2. Subagent spawn routing
 When the user-facing agent (Claude in the main session) chooses which model
 to spawn a sub-agent on, this table applies. It's about WHERE to send the
 work, not what gbrain calls internally.

 * v0.31.12 — THE regression test for the bug class that motivated this release.
 *
 * gbrain v0.31.6 shipped `claude-sonnet-4-6-20250929` as the chat default.
 * That ID 404s on the Anthropic API, which made `isAvailable("chat")` return
 * false in every code path that loaded the recipe's model list. The headline
 * v0.31.6 feature (real-time facts extraction during sync) was a no-op on the
 * happy path: `extractFactsFromTurn` silently returned `[]` with no
 * user-visible signal.
 *
 * Codex F7+F8+F15 in plan review (the boil-the-lake decision): the existing
 * gateway E2Es did not cover the `isAvailable('chat') === false → silent []`
 * path. This test exists so the bug class is impossible to ship again.
 *
 * No API key required — uses the gateway's chat-transport test seam
 * (`__setChatTransportForTests`) to simulate a "model 404" without actually
 * hitting Anthropic. The full real-provider E2E lives elsewhere (it requires
 * `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`); this test is the structural regression guard that
 * runs in every parallel-test shard.
