// Package llm is a thin, reusable wrapper around the official OpenAI Go SDK
// (github.com/openai/openai-go). It exists so the rest of the server has a
// single, well-typed entry point for "just call an LLM" needs that do NOT
// require the full agent runtime — currently chat auto-titling and chat
// follow-up questions (MUL-4238).
//
// # Scope: the assist layer, not every model call in the product
//
// This package covers the LLM calls the API process makes on its own behalf.
// Running an agent is a different data path entirely: the daemon executes an
// AI coding tool as a subprocess under that tool's own credentials, and does
// not forward this layer's MULTICA_LLM_* settings to it. (It does inject the
// task-scoped Multica connection variables the agent itself needs — see
// mergeEnv in pkg/agent, which drops the daemon's inherited MULTICA_* and then
// appends the values assembled for that task.) Nothing here governs that path,
// and operator-facing copy about this layer must not imply otherwise — an
// admin who reads "empty means nothing is sent" as covering the whole product
// has been misled about where their chat content goes.
//
// # The single-entry-point rule
//
// Every LLM call the server process makes on its own behalf goes through this
// package, and nothing outside it imports the OpenAI SDK directly. That is a
// constraint to keep, not a coincidence: it is what makes "what does this
// deployment's assist layer send to a third party?" answerable by reading one
// package instead of auditing the tree. A new feature that wants a model calls
// this package. Two tests hold the halves of that rule:
// TestOpenAISDKIsImportedOnlyByThisPackage (nothing else reaches the SDK) and
// TestDocumentedConsumersAreTheOnlyCallers (nothing else reaches this client).
//
// # Consumers, and what they send upstream
//
// Keep this list current when a consumer is added, removed, or changes what it
// sends — it is the source the operator-facing copy is written from
// (.env.example and apps/docs/content/docs/environment-variables*.mdx), and
// TestDocumentedConsumersAreTheOnlyCallers fails until a new call site is
// reflected here.
//
// - Chat auto-titling — server/internal/handler/chat_title.go. Sends the
// first user message of a new chat session, verbatim and uncapped.
// Attachments are never included.
// - Chat follow-up questions, a.k.a. quick actions —
// server/internal/service/chat_quick_actions_generate.go.
// Sends the tail of the conversation: up to 6 messages, the reply being
// answered capped at 3000 runes (2000 head + 1000 tail) and each older
// message at 800.
//
// Request shape beyond the prompts is deployment-controlled and lives in
// Config: MaxRetries (transport budget) and DisableThinking, which appends
// `chat_template_kwargs: {"enable_thinking": false}` to every request body for
// gateways that honor it — some GLM/Qwen-style routes spend a thinking pass
// that dominates the assist calls' latency budget. Standard OpenAI endpoints
// reject unknown body fields, so the knob is opt-in per deployment and off by
// default.
//
// Both consumers send private chat content, which is why an unconfigured
// deployment making zero upstream requests is a contract rather than a side
// effect: New with no API key and no base URL returns a disabled client whose
// every call fails with ErrNotConfigured before an HTTP request is ever built,
// and both consumers check Enabled() before doing any work
// (TestUnconfiguredClientMakesZeroUpstreamRequests). An operator who must not
// let THIS layer send chat content leaves MULTICA_LLM_API_KEY and
// MULTICA_LLM_BASE_URL empty; the product stays whole (client-derived chat
// titles, no follow-up question buttons).
//
// The wrapper is intentionally small:
//
// - It owns the SDK client construction (base URL + API key + retry/timeout
// defaults) so callers never touch option.RequestOption directly.
// - It exposes both the raw Chat Completions surface (Chat / ChatStream)
// and a convenience GenerateText helper, used by server-internal callers
// for simple one-shot completions (e.g. chat title generation).
// - The default model is configurable; when a request omits the model we
// fall back to it, and when it too is empty we fall back to a sane
// built-in default so a misconfigured deployment still returns a clear
// upstream error rather than a 400 from our own layer.
//
// Base URL and API key are configurable so the same layer can target OpenAI,
// an OpenAI-compatible gateway, or a self-hosted model server.

// is returned to the caller unretried. Backoff starts at 0.5s and doubles
// to an 8s cap with up to 25% jitter subtracted, unless the response
// carries a Retry-After header, which wins.
//
// It is NOT the parameter-compatibility retry inside GenerateJSON (which is
// independent and bounded separately), and it does not cover a stream that
// breaks after ChatStream has already returned. Choose a value against the
// caller's own deadline: backoff alone costs ~1.5s at 2 retries and ~21s at
