+# Framework release watch (#1066, AI impact review #1067).
+#
+# PR CI installs each framework from its committed lock (ADR 0007 rule 3) and
+# the nightly resolves everything fresh at once (rule 4), so neither says which
+# upstream release breaks which adapter. This workflow tests each new release
+# on its own: everything else stays at the PR lock and only that package moves.
+#
+#   `detect`   — scripts/check_framework_releases.py lists every framework
+#                extra's direct requirement whose newest stable PyPI release is
+#                ahead of python/constraints/adapter-contract-<extra>-py3.12.txt.
+#   `evaluate` — one leg per release: install from the lock with only that pin
+#                moved (or, when that does not resolve, unconstrained: "needs
+#                co-bump"), then the adapter-contract checks: verify_frameworks.py
+#                --require-installed, the whole suite with the skip guard armed,
+#                and the example smoke. Each check is continue-on-error, so a
+#                red check is a result, recorded in result.json, not a red run.
+#   `ai-review` — one leg per release, beside `evaluate`: a model reads the
+#                upstream notes against the adapter and returns Risk, the
+#                affected symbols with citations, a recommended action and its
+#                confidence (scripts/review_framework_release.py builds the
+#                prompt and validates the answer into impact.json). Advisory
+#                only: never verification (§0.3), never a §8 row. It reads files
+#                and fetches pages, nothing else, holds no write scope, and
+#                cannot fail the run: no key or a failed review is "impact
+#                review unavailable". One review per release, cached.
+#   `alert`    — the only job that writes. It opens or updates ONE issue per
+#                release, labelled `framework-release`, with the impact review
+#                embedded, and closes the ones the lock has caught up with. A
+#                rerun with unchanged results edits the issue but adds no comment.
+#
+# On a pull request touching this workflow or its scripts it is a dry run: the
+# planned issue bodies go to the job summary, nothing is written, and the review
+# does not run (its key is an `ai-review` environment secret). A dispatch with
+# `replay` reruns one past release of `package`, e.g. a break §8.1 records, as a
+# dry run too.
+#
+# Alerting (docs/ci.md convention 4): a failed run (PyPI down, a broken plan)
+# opens or updates ONE open issue labelled `framework-release-watch-failure`.
+#
+# Security: matrix values and inputs reach run: bodies through env:, never
+# interpolated. The scheduled and dispatch runs check out the default branch,
+# so they watch develop's lock.

+# Nightly lock refresh (#763, ADR 0011).
+#
+# PR CI resolves from the committed lock, python/constraints/*.txt (ADR 0007
+# rule 3), so tool and dependency upgrades must arrive as a PR that moves the
+# lock, never overnight on their own. This workflow is that PR's author: after
+# a green `Nightly matrix` run on `develop` (the fresh-resolve canary, ADR 0007
+# rule 4), it reruns scripts/compile_constraints.py and, when any file changed,
+# force-pushes the result to the `bot/lock-refresh` branch and opens (or
+# updates) ONE PR to `develop`. The bump PR's own CI is the gate: the nightly
+# proves the newest releases work, the PR proves the exact pins do.
+#
+# Why not Dependabot or Renovate: either would also bump the `>=` floors in
+# pyproject.toml (§8.4 keeps those at the lowest verified versions), and each
+# bumps one pin at a time, while every constraints file must stay one
+# `uv pip compile` resolution of its combo (see compile_constraints.py).
+#
+# Token: `secrets.LOCK_REFRESH_TOKEN` when the repository has one (a token
+# with contents and pull-requests write on this repo), else `github.token`.
+# A PR opened with `github.token` does not trigger `pull_request` workflows,
+# so with the fallback a maintainer closes and reopens the PR to run CI. The
+# fallback also needs the repository setting that lets GitHub Actions create
+# pull requests; without it the PR step fails and the `alert` job files the
+# tracking issue. See docs/ci.md, "lock-refresh.yml".
+#
+# `bot/lock-refresh` belongs to this workflow: it is rebuilt from `develop`
+# on every run, so commits pushed to it by hand are overwritten.
+#
+# Alerting (docs/ci.md convention 4): a failed run opens or updates ONE open
+# issue labelled `lock-refresh-failure`, from the `alert` job.
+#
+# Security: no PR code runs here. `workflow_run` fires only for `Nightly
+# matrix`, which has no pull_request trigger, and the job checks out `develop`
+# itself. That is why zizmor's dangerous-triggers audit is waived on the
+# trigger below (#757, as in pr-labels.yml): the risk it flags is running
+# untrusted code with this token. Event values reach `run:` bodies through
+# env:, never interpolated. The checkout persists no credentials (docs/ci.md
+# convention 7), so the push passes the token explicitly through env:.

 ### The pre-PR gate
 
-Before drafting the PR, run the exact checks CI runs, from `python/`. Any
-non-zero exit means stop and fix before opening the PR:
+CI's checks live in one file, `python/noxfile.py`. Every job in
+`.github/workflows/ci.yml` (except the `ci-ok` aggregate) is a
+[nox](https://nox.thea.codes/) session of the same name, and the job runs that
+session, so one command reproduces every blocking CI job. Install the two tools
+once, then run the gate from `python/` before drafting the PR. Any non-zero exit
+means stop and fix before opening the PR:
 
 ```bash
+pipx install nox pre-commit     # or: pip install nox pre-commit
+pre-commit install              # once per clone, from the repository root (hooks below)
 cd python
-pytest -q          # the `test` matrix job (3.10/3.11/3.12 in CI)
-mypy               # mypy --strict, BLOCKING
-ruff check .       # rule families in pyproject.toml (see the §3 map); line-length 100
-lint-imports       # the layered, framework-free-core contract
-vulture            # dead code in src/; allowed names in vulture_whitelist.py
-```
-
-The `test` job's Python 3.11 leg also measures branch coverage and fails below
-the floor (`fail_under` in `[tool.coverage.report]`, `python/pyproject.toml`,
-#751). It posts the report to the job summary. To reproduce it locally, run:
-
-```bash
-coverage run -m pytest -q && coverage run -m pytest -q -m local_gateway
-coverage combine && coverage report   # exits non-zero below the floor
+nox                             # every session: the whole blocking CI gate
+nox -s typecheck-and-lint test-3.11   # the quick loop: lint, types, one test leg
+nox -l                          # list the sessions
 ```
 
-The floor only goes up. Raise it in the PR whose tests lift the total past the
-next integer, and never lower it to make a PR pass.
-
-The secret scan runs outside `python/`, in its own `secret-scan` CI job (gitleaks
-over the full history, configured in `.gitleaks.toml`). Install the matching
-commit hook once per clone so a secret is caught before it is committed:
-
-```bash
-pipx install pre-commit   # or: pip install pre-commit
-pre-commit install        # from the repository root; runs gitleaks on staged changes
-```
+Each session that installs something builds its own virtualenv and installs
+exactly what its job installs, with the job's `-c constraints/...` lock, so its
+result is the job's result. The five that install nothing (`new-dependencies`,
+`commit-identities`, `docs-llms-drift`, `docs-site`, `workflow-lint`) run on
+your current interpreter and `PATH`. `nox -s test` runs all five test legs
+(3.10 to 3.14), each in a fresh virtualenv, so it is slow; `nox -R -s <session>` reruns one in its existing virtualenv without
+reinstalling. CI installs into the runner's Python and runs the same session
+with `nox --no-venv --no-install`; `tests/unit/test_noxfile.py` fails when a job
+and its session drift apart.
+
+| Session | What it checks |
+| --- | --- |
+| `typecheck-and-lint` | `mypy --strict`, then each `examples/` package; `ruff check .`; `ruff format --check .`; `lint-imports`; the verification-claim, doc-link and fixture-scrub scripts; `vulture` |
+| `test` (`test-3.10` to `test-3.14`) | the default suite and `-m local_gateway`; the offline seams under a dead proxy; the default suite under a dead proxy and OTLP collector; on 3.11, branch coverage and its floor |
+| `base-only` | the base install alone: `import donkey_kit`, no pydantic, `tests/unit`, and the built wheel's packaged fixtures |
+| `all-extra-resolves` | `pip install --dry-run ".[all]"` resolves within 5 minutes, per Python |
+| `anthropic-stacks(...)`, `adk-stacks(...)`, `agent-framework-middleware`, `llamaindex-transport`, `agents-strands-last-call` | each framework's tests, with that framework installed |
+| `adapter-contract(<extra>)` | the whole suite and the strict example smoke, one leg per `ADAPTERS` extra |
+| `benchmark`, `quickstart`, `langgraph-demo` | the span-overhead budget, the gateway-free quickstart, and the Scenario-A demo with its conformance run |
+| `new-dependencies`, `commit-identities` | a new direct dependency exists on PyPI; no placeholder git identity in the branch's commits. Both compare against `origin/develop`, so `git fetch origin` first |
+| `openai-1x` | `[llm]` with openai held below 2: the default suite and `-m local_gateway` (#769) |
+| `docs-llms-drift` | the website's `npm test`, and the committed llms artifacts match a fresh generation (needs Node) |
+| `docs-site` | the website's `npm ci`, typecheck, lint, production build and internal-link check (needs Node; the build fetches the roadmap from the GitHub API, and `GITHUB_TOKEN` lifts its rate limit) |
+| `pip-audit(base)`, `pip-audit(all)` | resolve the base and `[all]` installs to exact pins, then audit them for known vulnerabilities |
+| `workflow-lint` | `actionlint` and `zizmor --format=github .github/`, from the repository root (both on `PATH`) |
+| `dependency-review` | nothing locally: it skips. The job is GitHub's dependency-review action over the PR's dependency graph diff |
+
+Where a green local `nox` and a red CI run can still differ:
+
+- **Interpreters you don't have.** A session whose Python is not installed is
+  skipped, not failed (`nox --error-on-missing-interpreters` fails it instead).
+  CI runs 3.10 to 3.14; `uv python install 3.10 3.11 3.12 3.13 3.14` gets them.
+- **CI-only steps.** Each job's install and pip-cache steps, the
+  `new-dependencies` base-branch fetch, the benchmark's artifact upload and
+  trend comparison (on `main` pushes), `workflow-lint`'s linter downloads, the
+  `pip-audit` action that audits the session's pin list, and the whole
+  `dependency-review` job stay in the workflow.
+- **Other workflows.** `secret-scan`, the nightly matrix and the publish
+  workflows are not sessions. To scan the history as `secret-scan` does, run
+  `gitleaks git .` from the repository root.
+
+The `test-3.11` session's coverage step fails below the floor (`fail_under` in
+`[tool.coverage.report]`, `python/pyproject.toml`, #751); in CI it also posts the
+report to the job summary. The floor only goes up. Raise it in the PR whose
+tests lift the total past the next integer, and never lower it to make a PR
+pass.
+
+**Commit hooks.** `pre-commit install` runs the checks that are fast on staged
+files at each commit: gitleaks (secrets, configured in `.gitleaks.toml`),
+`ruff check`, `ruff format`, `lint-imports`, and the llms regeneration when a
+website page changes. When a hook rewrites a file (`ruff format`, the llms
+generator), the commit fails; stage the change and commit again. The byte-exact
+fixtures (`src/donkey_kit/simulator/_fixtures/`, `tests/fixtures/`) are excluded
+from the formatter. `pre-commit run --all-files` runs every hook over the whole
+tree. The hooks are an early warning: CI runs the same checks, so skipping them
+only moves the failure to the PR.
+
+The commits that only reformatted the tree are listed in
+`.git-blame-ignore-revs` at the repository root, so `git blame` shows the
+commit that last changed a line's meaning. Turn that on once per clone with
+`git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs`. A future
+formatting-only commit gets a line there, with a comment.

-## `agent-fabric` → `donkey-kit` (the DDK rebrand)
-
-This SDK was renamed from **Agent Fabric SDK** to the **Donkey Development Kit
-(DDK)**. The rename is a **trademark** decision, not a functional one:
-"Agent Fabric" is a MuleSoft/Salesforce product name, and this project is an
-independent, unaffiliated SDK *for consuming* MuleSoft Agent Fabric — the name
-cannot be part of our own product identity. The MuleSoft product it targets is
-still referred to as "Agent Fabric" throughout the docs; only the SDK's own
-identity changed.
-
-**This is a clean break.** Because the SDK is pre-1.0, there are **no
-compatibility shims** — no import aliases, no environment-variable fallbacks, no
-OpenTelemetry dual-emit. Pin the last `agent-fabric` release if you are not
-ready to migrate; otherwise apply every rename below in one pass. The rename is
-purely mechanical: no behavior, no wire contract, and no verified API changed.
-
-### At a glance
-
-| Surface | Was | Now |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| PyPI distribution | `agent-fabric` | `donkey-kit` |
-| Import package | `agent_fabric` | `donkey_kit` |
-| Client class / instance | `Fabric` / `fabric` | `Donkey` / `donkey` |
-| Other public classes | `FabricConfig`, `FabricError`, `FabricSpec`, `FabricAsyncClient`, `FabricClient` | `DonkeyConfig`, `DonkeyError`, `DonkeySpec`, `DonkeyAsyncClient`, `DonkeyClient` |
-| CLI command | `agent-fabric …` | `donkey …` |
-| Config file / table / lock | `.agent-fabric.toml` / `[fabric]` / `fabric.lock` | `.donkey-kit.toml` / `[donkey]` / `donkey.lock` |
-| Env prefix | `AGENT_FABRIC_*` (and `FABRIC_*`) | `DONKEY_*` |
-| OpenTelemetry attribute namespace | `fabric.*` | `donkey.*` |
-| pytest plugin entry-point / flag | `agent_fabric_conformance` / `--fabric-conformance` | `donkey_kit_conformance` / `--donkey-conformance` |
-| Simulator honesty header | `x-fabric-simulator` | `x-donkey-simulator` |
-
-### 1. Install
-
-```diff
-- pip install "agent-fabric[llm,langgraph]"
-+ pip install "donkey-kit[llm,langgraph]"
-```
-
-Extras keep their names (`llm`, `langgraph`, `cli`, `otel`, `dev`, …); only the
-distribution name changed.
-
-### 2. Imports and the client class
-
-```diff
-- from agent_fabric import Fabric
-- fabric = Fabric.from_env()
-- model = fabric.langgraph.chat_model("gpt-4o")
-+ from donkey_kit import Donkey
-+ donkey = Donkey.from_env()
-+ model = donkey.langgraph.chat_model("gpt-4o")
-```
-
-Every `Fabric*` public class gains a `Donkey*` name (see the table above); the
-raw client is `donkey.llm.client()`. The `donkey.<framework>` factory,
-`connection_kwargs()` accessor, and module-level factory keep their shapes —
-only the package and instance name changed.
-
-### 3. CLI
-
-The top-level command is now `donkey`. `donkey --help` lists four commands:
-
-```bash
-donkey init      # write a commented .donkey-kit.toml from the resolved config
-donkey doctor    # diagnose config, credentials, gateway, model and budget
-donkey mock      # run the local gateway simulator
-donkey test --agent=myagent:build   # run the conformance suite against your agent
-```
-
-The provisioning commands (`validate`, `plan`, `apply`, `drift`, `lint`,
-`generate`, `status`, `publish`, `verify`) are hidden from `--help`. All of
-them except `validate` exit with status 3 and a `blocked on verification`
-message. (A later release removed all but `status`, `publish` and `verify`; see
-the first section of this guide.)
-
-### 4. Configuration file
-
-Rename the file, the table header, and the lockfile:
-
-```diff
-- # .agent-fabric.toml
-- [fabric]
-+ # .donkey-kit.toml
-+ [donkey]
-  llm_proxy_url = "https://<ingress>/<instance>"
-```
-
-```diff
-- fabric.lock
-+ donkey.lock
-```
-
-### 5. Environment variables
-
-Every `AGENT_FABRIC_*` variable becomes `DONKEY_*`. There is **no fallback** —
-the old names are not read.
-
-| Was | Now |
-| --- | --- |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_LLM_PROXY_URL` | `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_ID` | `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_ID` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET` | `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_LLM_PROXY_KEY` | `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_KEY` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_APP_NAME` | `DONKEY_APP_NAME` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_BUSINESS_GROUP` | `DONKEY_BUSINESS_GROUP` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_CORRELATION_HEADER` | `DONKEY_CORRELATION_HEADER` |

-| `AGENT_FABRIC_REGISTRY_CACHE_TTL_S` | `DONKEY_REGISTRY_CACHE_TTL_S` |
-| `AGENT_FABRIC_TELEMETRY` | `DONKEY_TELEMETRY` |
-| `FABRIC_SANDBOX_TESTS` | `DONKEY_SANDBOX_TESTS` |
-
-**Not renamed** — these belong to MuleSoft/Anypoint, not the SDK, and keep
-their names:
-
-- `ANYPOINT_CLIENT_ID`, `ANYPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET`, `ANYPOINT_ORG_ID`,
-  `ANYPOINT_ENV`, `ANYPOINT_REGION`, `ANYPOINT_BASE_URL` — Anypoint
-  control-plane credentials (separate from the LLM proxy's
-  `client_id`/`client_secret` consumer-auth pair).
-- CI secret names such as `MULESOFT_LLM_PROXY_*` — these are the *upstream*
-  MuleSoft-owned secret names; the SDK still reads them into `DONKEY_*` at the
-  workflow level.
-
-### 6. Testing surfaces
-
-```diff
-- pytest --fabric-conformance --fabric-agent=myagent:build
-+ pytest --donkey-conformance --donkey-agent=myagent:build
-```
-
-The pytest plugin's entry-point key is now `donkey_kit_conformance`. If you had
-pinned the flag or the entry-point name anywhere (tox, CI, a wrapper), update
-it. The simulator's honesty header — the one that marks a response as coming
-from the local gateway simulator rather than a real gateway — is now
-`x-donkey-simulator` (was `x-fabric-simulator`).
-
-### 7. OpenTelemetry (breaking) — the `fabric.*` → `donkey.*` namespace flip
-
-**This is the one change that reaches your observability backend**, so it gets
-its own section. Every DDK-specific span name and attribute key moved from the
-`fabric.*` namespace to `donkey.*`. There is **no dual-emit**: the old keys stop
-appearing the moment you upgrade.
-
-**What did *not* change:** the OpenTelemetry `gen_ai.*` semantic-convention
-attributes (`gen_ai.system`, `gen_ai.request.model`,
-`gen_ai.usage.input_tokens`, `gen_ai.usage.output_tokens`, …) are untouched —
-they are not ours to rename. A governed model call still opens **one** span
-carrying both namespaces at once.
-
-Span name (the SDK emits one span, for each governed model call):

-| `fabric.policy.decision` | `donkey.policy.decision` |
-| `fabric.policy.type` | `donkey.policy.type` |
-| `fabric.budget.remaining` | `donkey.budget.remaining` |
-| `fabric.cost.team` | `donkey.cost.team` |
-
-**Action required on your side:** update any dashboards, alerts, saved queries,
-span-attribute processors, or sampling rules that key off `fabric.*`. Point them
-at `donkey.*`. Queries that only use the `gen_ai.*` attributes need no change.
-
-### What stays the same
-
-- References to **MuleSoft "Agent Fabric"**, **Anypoint**, and the **Omni
-  Gateway** — these name the product DDK consumes, not the SDK.
-- The wire contract: base URL shape (no `/v1`), the `client_id`/`client_secret`
-  header pair, streaming, and the typed rejection shapes.
-- The Anypoint CLI plugin literal `mulesoft-anypoint-cli-agent-fabric-plugin`
-  and the Maven coordinate `com.mulesoft.agents:agent-fabric-transformation`.
-- The `gen_ai.*` OpenTelemetry attributes and `x-anypoint-*` /
-  `x-correlation-id` headers.

+| CrewAI | typed refusal bridged | CrewAI's native OpenAI provider owns the transport, so its errors come from a client the SDK never saw, and `donkey.run()` and `typed_refusals()` cannot tell a gateway refusal from any other failure there and pass those errors through (#724). ADK's `gemini()` and `model()` send through the SDK's transport and are bridged (conformance-tested in #955 and #969). LiteLLM, under `model()`, re-raises a refusal as its own exception, and the adapter's `llm_client` marks that exception with the refusal the SDK's transport received. |
 
 Each exemption matches what the adapter reports in `donkey.<framework>.capabilities()` (a frozen `AdapterCapabilities` per factory), and a unit test keeps the two in step (#726).

 Alternatives considered: always keeping the group, even a uniform one, would
 make `except PIIDetected` miss every task-group refusal. Raising the first
 refusal of a mixed group would hide the user's own bugs in sibling tasks.
+
+## Amendment (2026-10-10, #969)
+
+LiteLLM, under ADK's `LiteLlm` (`donkey.adk.model()`), sends through our
+transport (#946) but raises a refusal as its own exception around a response
+it rebuilt: no gateway headers, no `request.extensions`, and no `__cause__`.
+Decision 6 rightly refuses to classify it, so the factory was exempt. The
+bridge now has one more rule, ahead of the translators:
+
+1. **A per-call capture records what the transport saw.**
+   `core/refusals.py` `capture_refusals()` opens a `RefusalCapture` in a
+   context variable. While one is open, the governed pipeline records each
+   send's typed outcome in it: the classified error of a non-2xx final
+   response, the `ModelSubstituted` it raises, the `GatewayUnavailable` or
+   lifecycle `ConfigError` of a failed send, and `None` for a success, so a
+   retried call that succeeds clears an earlier failure.
+2. **The adapter tags the framework's error and re-raises it unchanged.**
+   The adapter opens the capture around exactly one framework call and, if the
+   call raises, tags that exception with the last recorded outcome. Outside
+   `donkey.run()`, `@governed` and `typed_refusals()`, the caller still sees
+   the framework's error.
+3. **`translate()` returns a link's tag.** A tagged link stands for its typed
+   error, as a `DonkeyError` link does. Decision 6 still holds: a tag only ever
+   holds an error the SDK's own transport recorded.
+
+Alternatives considered: reading `donkey.last_call` misses the call, because
+ADK runs the model in a task of its own and the record stays there. Matching
+the exception's status code to the last refusal could pair a refusal with the
+wrong call.

+# ADR 0011: A green nightly opens the lock-refresh PR, and the release toolchain is locked too
+
+- **Status:** Accepted
+- **Date:** 2026-10-10
+- **Issue:** #763 (part of #711). Amends [ADR 0007](0007-dependency-policy.md)
+  rule 3's refresh clause.
+
+## Context
+
+[ADR 0007](0007-dependency-policy.md) rule 3 put PR CI on a committed lock,
+`python/constraints/<combo>-py3.NN.txt`, generated by
+`python scripts/compile_constraints.py`. It left two gaps that #763 tracks:
+
+- **Nothing moves the lock.** Rule 3 says the lock is refreshed by a PR a
+  maintainer opens by hand, and that no scheduled job opens it, because a
+  workflow needs write access to push a branch and open a PR. In practice the
+  lock only moves when someone remembers, so the PR gate drifts away from what
+  users install, while the nightly (rule 4) already proves every night that
+  the newest releases work.
+- **The release toolchain is not locked.** `publish-pypi.yml`,
+  `publish-testpypi.yml` and `ci.yml`'s `base-only` job run
+  `pip install build twine` and `python -m build`. That builds in an isolated
+  environment with the newest `hatchling` on PyPI, so the backend that builds
+  an immutable PyPI release is whatever was newest that day. `uv`, which
+  `compile_constraints.py` drives, isn't pinned either.
+
+## Decision
+
+1. **A green nightly opens the lock-refresh PR.** `.github/workflows/lock-refresh.yml`
+   runs after every successful `Nightly matrix` run on `develop`, and on
+   manual dispatch. It reruns `python scripts/compile_constraints.py` on
+   `develop` and, when any file changed, force-pushes the result to the
+   `bot/lock-refresh` branch and opens or updates one PR to `develop`. The
+   bump PR's own CI is the gate; a maintainer merges it like any other PR.
+   This replaces rule 3's "there is no scheduled job to open that PR"; the
+   rest of rule 3 stands, and a maintainer can still refresh by hand.
+2. **The workflow's write scopes are its own.** Only the job that pushes has
+   `contents: write` and `pull-requests: write`; its `alert` job alone has
+   `issues: write` and opens one `lock-refresh-failure` issue on failure
+   (docs/ci.md convention 4). `tests/unit/test_ci_workflows.py` holds both.
+3. **The release toolchain resolves from the lock.** The `release` dependency
+   group (`build`, `twine`, `hatchling`) and the `lock` group (`uv`) get
+   tool-only combos in `_COMBOS`, compiled to `constraints/release-py3.11.txt`
+   and `constraints/lock-py3.11.txt`. Every `python -m build` step installs
+   from the release file and passes `--no-isolation`, so it builds with the
+   locked `hatchling`. `tests/unit/test_constraints_lock.py` fails a build
+   step that does neither.
+4. **`[build-system]` keeps a floor.** `requires = ["hatchling>=1.27"]` stays
+   a floor (`§8.4`): it is what a user's build from the sdist resolves, and
+   the locked version is the publish job's choice, not theirs.
+
+### Alternatives considered
+
+- **Dependabot or Renovate.** Rejected. Both treat `pyproject.toml` as a
+  manifest and would raise the `>=` floors that rule 1 keeps at the lowest
+  verified version. Both bump one pin at a time, while each constraints file
+  must stay one `uv pip compile` resolution of its combo (pins bumped
+  independently can be unsatisfiable together, which is what broke the first,
+  merged version of the lock). Dependabot also doesn't recognise
+  `python/constraints/*.txt` as a lock it can regenerate.
+- **A separate cron.** Rejected: following the nightly means the refresh runs
+  only on a day the newest releases passed, so a red upstream day doesn't
+  produce a bump PR that is red for the same reason.
+- **Pin `hatchling` in `[build-system]`.** Rejected by rule 2 of ADR 0007 and
+  `§8.4`: a ceiling or `==` there binds every sdist consumer.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- A PR opened with the default `github.token` doesn't trigger `pull_request`
+  workflows, and the repository must allow GitHub Actions to create pull
+  requests. The workflow uses a `LOCK_REFRESH_TOKEN` secret when one exists;
+  without it, a maintainer closes and reopens the bump PR to start CI.
+  Both are repository settings, recorded in `docs/ci.md`.
+- `bot/lock-refresh` belongs to the workflow and is rebuilt from `develop` on
+  every run.
+- A bump PR whose CI is red means the lock can't move yet. The fix is the
+  same as for a red nightly (rule 4): adapt the code or wait, never add a
+  ceiling.
+- The `mypy` half of #763 needs no ADR: `follow_imports = "skip"` for the
+  optional extras is a type-checking setting, not dependency policy.
+  `tests/unit/test_house_style_config.py` keeps every extra the typecheck job
+  doesn't install in that override.

+of its pin in `python/constraints/adapter-contract-<extra>-py3.12.txt`.
+Pre-releases and yanked releases don't count. `evaluate` runs one leg per
+release. It installs the `adapter-contract` job's line with that one pin moved.
+If that doesn't resolve, it installs the release unconstrained and marks it
+"needs co-bump". Then it runs the `adapter-contract` checks:
+`verify_frameworks.py --require-installed`, the whole suite with the skip guard
+armed, and the example smoke. A red check is a result, not a red run.
+
+`alert` keeps one open issue per release, titled
+`framework-release: <package> <locked> → <latest>` and labelled
+`framework-release` and `dependencies`. The issue lists the versions, the bump
+kind, the release date and notes, the result of each check, the run link and
+the next action. A rerun refreshes the body and comments only when the results
+changed. A newer release of the same package closes the older issue as
+superseded. Once the lock reaches the release, the next run closes the issue
+with a link to the lock commit.
+
+What to do with an issue:
+
+- **All green: safe to bump.** The next `lock-refresh.yml` PR may already
+  carry it. If not, from `python/` run `python scripts/compile_constraints.py`,
+  then `python scripts/generate_docs.py`, then
+  `python scripts/verify_frameworks.py --only <framework> --emit-verified`, and
+  then the pre-PR gate.
+- **Anything red.** Adapt the adapter to the release, or record the
+  incompatibility in [`verified-apis.md` §8.1](verified-apis.md). Never add a
+  ceiling (`§8.4`).
+
+**Impact review (AI, advisory).** The checks say *whether* a release breaks the
+adapter; they don't say what in the changelog did. Beside `evaluate`, the
+`ai-review` job runs one leg per release (#1067). It gives
+`anthropics/claude-code-action` (pinned by SHA, model `claude-sonnet-5-5`) a
+prompt that `python scripts/review_framework_release.py --prompt` builds: the
+package and both versions, the release notes and the GitHub compare link, the
+adapter module, its `FRAMEWORKS` rows in `verify_frameworks.py`, and its
+[`verified-apis.md`](verified-apis.md) §8 rows with all of §8.1 and §8.2. The
+model answers in a fixed schema: **Risk** (none, low or high), the **affected
+symbols**, each with an upstream citation, the **recommended action** (bump,
+adapt adapter, record §8.1, or watch) and its **confidence**. `alert` puts the
+answer in the issue under "Impact review (AI, advisory)".
+
+- *It is advisory.* It is never verification (§0.3), and it never changes a §8
+  row or the next action the checks give. Confirm a finding against the cited
+  source before acting on it.
+- *It is read-only.* The job has `contents: read` and no write token. The model
+  can read files (never `/proc`, where its key lives) and fetch pages from
+  github.com, raw.githubusercontent.com and pypi.org, nothing else: no shell,
+  no edits, no subagents and no GitHub tools, and in-repo Claude settings are
+  ignored. The prompt says fetched pages are data, not instructions. Only
+  `alert` writes, and the answer is untrusted: the script keeps only the
+  schema's fields, escapes Markdown, strips HTML and comment markers,
+  neutralises `@` mentions and `#` references, keeps only `http(s)` citations,
+  and drops an answer that holds anything shaped like a credential.
+- *It never fails the run.* No key, a failed action or an answer outside the
+  schema leaves "Impact review unavailable" in the issue and a notice in the
+  run. A rerun without a review keeps the review an earlier run wrote.
+- *It runs once per release.* The review is cached by extra, package and
+  version (`actions/cache`), so the daily rerun of an open issue costs nothing.
+  To review a release again, delete its `ai-review-v1-…` cache under
+  **Actions → Caches**.
+
+**One-time setup for the review.** The key is an environment secret, never a
+repository secret, and the environment admits only `develop`:
+
+1. Create an `ai-review` environment in **Settings → Environments**. Under
+   deployment branches, allow only `develop`; leave required reviewers off,
+   because the daily run is unattended.
+2. Add the environment secret `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`:
+   `gh secret set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY --env ai-review` prompts for the value.
+   `tests/unit/test_ci_workflows.py` holds `ai-review` as the only job on that
+   environment, and keeps it off pull requests.
+
+Run it for one package with
+`gh workflow run framework-release-watch.yml --ref develop -f package=crewai`.
+To check the review against a release with a known outcome, replay that
+release as a dry run:
+`gh workflow run framework-release-watch.yml --ref develop -f package=anthropic -f replay=0.116.0..1.0.0`
+evaluates and reviews `anthropic` 1.0.0 as if the lock still pinned 0.116.0,
+and puts the planned issue in the job summary without writing it. A PR that
+changes the workflow or either script gets a dry run too: the planned issue
+bodies go to the job summary, nothing is written, and the review doesn't run. A
+failed run opens or updates one issue labelled `framework-release-watch-failure`.

+Each workflow runs its own `test` and `build` jobs first, and uploads via
+`pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish` only when both pass. The gates are listed in
+[Release gates](#release-gates).
 Each is **structurally incapable** of reaching the other's destination:
 `publish-pypi.yml` has no `workflow_dispatch` trigger, so a manual run can
 never fire it; `publish-testpypi.yml` has no `release:` trigger, so a
 published Release can never fire it. Neither workflow creates tags or
 releases — they only react to them.
 
+## Release gates
+
+A PyPI upload cannot be undone (a release can only be yanked), so every check
+that can run before the upload does. The automated ones run in both publish
+workflows; the last two are human.
+
+| Gate | Where | Fails when |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Test suite at the release commit | `test` job | `pytest -q` fails on the exact commit being uploaded (same install as `ci.yml`'s `test` job, 3.11). |
+| One version, matching tag | `build` job, `scripts/check_release_version.py` | A built dist's metadata carries a version other than `__version__`, or the version isn't a normalised ladder version. On `publish-pypi.yml`, also when the tag isn't exactly `v<version>`, or a non-pre-release Release carries a pre-release version. |
+| `twine check`, no tenant identifiers, floors never ceilings | `build` job | The long description doesn't render, a dist carries a tenant identifier or live platform host, or the built metadata has an upper pin. |
+| Clean-install smoke test | `build` job, `scripts/smoke_test_wheel.py` | The built wheel doesn't install into a fresh virtualenv, or `import donkey_kit` there fails, imports from anywhere but that virtualenv, or reports a `__version__` other than the installed version. |
+| Attestations | publish job | Not a check: the upload carries [PEP 740](https://peps.python.org/pep-0740/) attestations signed with the workflow's OIDC identity (`attestations: true`). |
+| Required reviewer | `pypi` environment | A maintainer doesn't approve the production deployment. This is a repository setting (see [One-time human setup](#one-time-human-setup-register-the-trusted-publisher)); the workflow can't enforce it. |
+| Acceptance run | `publish-testpypi.yml`'s `acceptance` job for the offline groups; by hand for the live groups, before the promotion PR | The `acceptance (published)` status on the published commit isn't green, or the live run fails. See below. |
+
+### The acceptance run
+
+Every gate above tests the source tree or a freshly built wheel. The
+maintainers' acceptance suite, kept in a separate private repository, is the
+only one that installs the **published** artifact from an index and exercises
+it against a live gateway. It catches the release where all of CI is
+green and consumers still can't use the package.
+
+Half of it runs itself (#1082). After the TestPyPI upload,
+`publish-testpypi.yml`'s `acceptance` job dispatches the suite's offline groups
+(public surface, packaging, verification-blocked surfaces: no credentials, no
+gateway) against the `.devN` it just published, waits for them, and posts the
+result as the `acceptance (published)` commit status on the published commit.
+That commit is the promotion PR's head, so the PR shows the result. A red,
+errored or missing status blocks the promotion the same way a failed run does.
+If `develop` moved after the publish, the status sits on the older commit:
+publish again from the new tip, or check the status on that commit.
+
+The live groups stay manual, because they call a real gateway. Run them
+against the same `.devN` before you open the promotion PR. How to run them, and
+how to tell a run that tested something from one that skipped everything, is
+documented in that repository.
+
+Record the live result in the promotion PR body: the version tested, the
+index, and whether it passed. A promotion with no recorded acceptance run is a promotion
+nobody checked. If the run fails, don't promote until you know which side is
+wrong, and assume the package is at fault until you have shown otherwise.

-contract, a live-observed extension with no third-party compatibility SLA, or
-an undocumented surface.
-
-Classification:
-
-- **Documented and public** — safe.
-- **Documented but no SLA for third-party use** — will break; we'll fix.
-- **Undocumented** — should be empty. Anything here needs a written
-  justification and a named owner.
-

-|---|---|---|---|
-| Connected-app bearer-token request: `POST /accounts/api/v2/oauth2/token` | `core.auth.AnypointConnectedApp` | **Documented and public** | MuleSoft documents the client-credentials request and response in [Getting the Bearer Token for a Connected App](https://docs.mulesoft.com/access-management/connected-app-bearer-token-example). The SDK path is also `VERIFIED (plugin)` in `verified-apis.md` §1 and §12.1. |
-| Model Proxy OpenAI-format data plane: caller-configured base path plus `POST /responses`, including streaming and the OpenAI `usage` object | `llm.client.LLMClient`; `core.lastcall.LastCall` | **Documented and public** | MuleSoft documents the endpoint, `client_id` / `client_secret` headers, request bodies, and streaming in [Sending Requests to Model Proxies](https://docs.mulesoft.com/general/model-proxy-request). The SDK's `/responses` path is `VERIFIED (LIVE)` in `verified-apis.md` §2. The raw `AsyncOpenAI` client can also call the documented `/chat/completions` route, but this repository has not live-probed that route. |
-| Client ID Enforcement request headers and `401` rejection contract | `core.transport.proxy_auth_headers`; `core.errors.classify` | **Documented and public** | The [Client ID Enforcement policy](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/latest/policies-included-client-id-enforcement) documents the default header expressions and `WWW-Authenticate: Client-ID-Enforcement`. The configured proxy contract is `VERIFIED (LIVE)` in `verified-apis.md` §2 and §4. |
-| LLM Token Based Rate Limit `429` response: `x-token-limit`, `x-token-remaining`, and `x-token-reset` | `core.budget.Budget`; `core.errors.classify` | **Documented and public** | The [LLM Token Based Rate Limit policy](https://docs.mulesoft.com/gateway/latest/policies-included-llm-token-rate-limit) documents all three headers and the reset unit.

-| Upstream provider error pass-through: non-`429` `4xx` nested error envelope; generic `5xx` status family | `core.errors.classify` | **Documented but no SLA for third-party use** | A real Model Proxy passed an OpenAI `400 model_not_found` envelope through verbatim, including `code`, `type`, and `param` (`VERIFIED (LIVE)`, `verified-apis.md` §4). MuleSoft's public Model Proxy page does not state a compatibility contract for provider error envelopes, whose schema ultimately belongs to the upstream provider. The SDK maps any generic `5xx` to `UpstreamModelError` by status only and assumes no body shape. Owner: DDK maintainers; retain the captured provider fixture and classify changed envelopes conservatively. |
-| Successful-response budget window in `x-llm-proxy-ratelimit` prose | `core.budget.Budget` | **Documented but no SLA for third-party use** | Captured from a real Model Proxy and parsed fail-open: an absent or changed sentence is ignored, never fatal. The exact prose contract is `VERIFIED (LIVE)` in `verified-apis.md` §4 but is not stated in the public policy page. Owner: DDK maintainers; re-capture on gateway-policy changes. |
-| Gateway identity and routing response metadata: `x-request-id`, `x-envoy-decorator-operation`, and `x-llm-proxy-{routing-type,routing-fallback,llm-provider,llm-model}` | `core.lastcall.LastCall`; `core.transport.DonkeyAsyncClient` | **Documented but no SLA for third-party use** | Captured from a real Model Proxy (`verified-apis.md` §2 and §3). Parsers are fail-open: missing or unrecognised values become `None`, and only an explicit `routing-fallback: true` changes retry behavior. Owner: DDK maintainers; contract changes require new fixtures before parser changes. |

-## Deliberately outside the shipping boundary
-
-- Exchange search and asset resolution, API Manager governed-state reads, MCP
-  discovery/binding, and Exchange publication raise
-  `NotImplementedError("blocked on verification: ...")` before network I/O.
-  They are therefore not called platform APIs and are not classified above.
-- `LLMClient.list_models(live=True)` does not call `GET /models`; live capture
-  established that Model Proxy has no model-catalog endpoint.
-- Application/business-group attribution request-header names remain
-  warning-emitting `Unverified` placeholders (`verified-apis.md` §3). They are
-  the only names here that still warn, and they have no config key, so they
-  cannot be overridden; leaving `application_name` / `business_group` unset
-  sends neither header. The gateway reads and echoes the correlation request header; the per-call
-  and cost-tag request-header names are overridable SDK conventions it does not
-  read, and cost tags are carried on spans. The SDK does not depend on the
-  gateway reading any of these, so they are not represented as supported
-  platform contracts here.
-
-## Local Mode is not a supported deployment target
-
-Omni/Flex Gateway **Local Mode** is not supported by DDK. The pure-Python
-local gateway simulator (`donkey mock` / `simulate()`) is the supported local
-dev loop; real-gateway behavior — the LLM Proxy, MCP Bridge, and their
-policies — is exercised against a hosted (Connected Mode) proxy instead. A
-stock Flex Gateway 1.14.0 Local Mode image rejects the LLM Proxy and MCP
-Bridge policies as missing extensions and refuses configuration until
-registered to a control plane — enough to make this scope call, and bounded
-to that image version. See `verified-apis.md` §6 for the underlying findings
-and #661 for the decision.
-
-## Undocumented surfaces
-
-**This section must stay empty.** If a surface lands here, it needs a written

That provider strips the `openai/` prefix and does not go through LiteLLM, which is only the factory's fallback route. `crewai.BaseLLM` (`crewai.llms.base_llm.BaseLLM`, a public top-level export) is the correct common return type and the adapter's annotation, but every provider is one, so the harness pins the concrete `OpenAICompletion` class: a routing change fails the check instead of passing as another `BaseLLM` (#640). The prior `crewai.LLM` expectation and its `CLASS RENAMED` verdict were an artifact of checking against the wrong class, not a real incompatibility. `extra_headers` is not a named `OpenAICompletion` field: `BaseLLM` collects it into `additional_params`, which `OpenAICompletion` merges into its request parameters, so the proxy auth headers arrive by that passthrough rather than a named parameter — the silently-absorbed-kwarg case above (seen on the wire against a local stub server, sync and streaming; not a sandbox round-trip). `max_retries=0` reaches the provider's OpenAI client (a 503 is sent once); CrewAI's own `BaseLLM` rate-limit retry still sends a budget 429 3 times and has no off switch, an asserted exemption confirmed with `crewai==1.15.23` (#734, `tests/unit/test_framework_retries.py`). | 2026-09-27 | #640; `python/scripts/verify_frameworks.py --only crewai` (also `--emit-verified`) |

That provider strips the `openai/` prefix and does not go through LiteLLM, which is only the factory's fallback route. `crewai.BaseLLM` (`crewai.llms.base_llm.BaseLLM`, a public top-level export) is the correct common return type and the adapter's annotation, but every provider is one, so the harness pins the concrete `OpenAICompletion` class: a routing change fails the check instead of passing as another `BaseLLM` (#640). The prior `crewai.LLM` expectation and its `CLASS RENAMED` verdict were an artifact of checking against the wrong class, not a real incompatibility. `extra_headers` is not a named `OpenAICompletion` field: `BaseLLM` collects it into `additional_params`, which `OpenAICompletion` merges into its request parameters, so the proxy auth headers arrive by that passthrough rather than a named parameter — the silently-absorbed-kwarg case above (seen on the wire against a local stub server, sync and streaming; not a sandbox round-trip). `max_retries=0` reaches the provider's OpenAI client (a 503 is sent once); CrewAI's own `BaseLLM` rate-limit retry still sends a budget 429 3 times and has no off switch, an asserted exemption confirmed with `crewai==1.15.23` (#734, `tests/unit/test_framework_retries.py`).

 |---|---|---|---|---|
 | `openai` | `>=3.0` | The SDK passes its shared `DonkeyAsyncClient` (an `httpx.AsyncClient` subclass) into `AsyncOpenAI(http_client=…)`. openai 3.x retyped that parameter to `httpx2.AsyncClient`, a distinct class from a separate distribution, so `mypy --strict` flagged `llm/client.py` and `integrations/openai_agents.py`. **Type-annotation-only** — when an `http_client` is injected, openai builds and sends every request *through that client*, so `httpx2` never touches our path. Since #728, where the SDK builds the `OpenAI`/`AsyncOpenAI` itself it no longer relies on openai accepting an `httpx` client: when `openai.DefaultAsyncHttpxClient` is built on `httpx2` (openai 3.x), `donkey.llm.client()` (async and sync) and the adapters that pre-build an `AsyncOpenAI` (`_proxy_openai_client`: OpenAI Agents SDK, MS Agent Framework, ADK `client`) pass the same core `httpx2` bridge the `anthropic` row below uses (`core/transport/httpx2.py`, chosen by `built_on_httpx2()`); openai `<3` keeps the non-owning view. The adapters whose framework builds the OpenAI client from an `http_client` kwarg (LangGraph `http_async_client`/`http_client`, LlamaIndex `async_http_client`/`http_client`, Strands `client_args["http_client"]`) hand it a *reusable* variant of the same bridge on openai 3.x (its close is a no-op, because Strands closes its client after every request), and the view on openai `<3`; one helper (`llm.client.openai_http_client` / `openai_sync_http_client`) makes the choice for all of them, pinned by `test_adapter_openai3_bridge.py` (#728). llama-index-llms-openai and `strands-agents[openai]` still pin `openai<3`, so today only LangGraph reaches the bridge in a natural resolve. **Mitigated** with a `cast(Any, …)` on the argument at the three version-conditional `http_client` sites (`llm/client.py` ×2 and `_proxy_openai_client` in `integrations/_base.py`) — `cast(Any, …)` erases the type on both majors, so `mypy --strict` passes under **both** openai `<3` and `>=3` (was a targeted `# type: ignore[arg-type]` / `cast("httpx.Response", …)` that passed only under openai `>=3` and became `unused-ignore` / `redundant-cast` under openai `<3`, #597; original guards #137). The `exc.response` side needs no guard: `classify()` and `DonkeyError.response` take the structural `ResponseLike` Protocol (`core/_response.py`), which `httpx.Response` and `httpx2.Response` both satisfy, so the documented `classify(exc.response)` type-checks on both majors; pinned by `tests/typecheck/classify_response_contract.py` (#933). **Runtime re-verified and test-pinned** against openai 3.x (async + sync): `test_llm_client_openai3_injection.py` drives `donkey.llm.client()` through a mock transport and asserts the `client_id`/`client_secret` pair is injected and the base URL carries no `/v1` (#18). | MITIGATED | 2026-10-07 |

 | `anthropic` | `>=1.0` | `anthropic` 1.0 moved from `httpx` to `httpx2` (Pydantic's continuation of `httpx`: same API, separate distribution and classes) and, unlike openai 3.x above, **rejects** an `httpx` object at runtime: `AsyncAnthropic(http_client=<DonkeyAsyncClient>)` raised `TypeError: Invalid 'http_client' argument; 'httpx.AsyncClient' is from the 'httpx' package, but this SDK uses 'httpx2'`, so `donkey.anthropic.client()` failed on every 1.x release. The old `[all]` hid it, because `agent-framework-anthropic` held `anthropic<1` there. **Mitigated** without a ceiling: on `anthropic>=1.0` the adapter passes an `httpx2.AsyncClient` whose transport forwards each request through the shared `DonkeyAsyncClient` (the core bridge `core/transport/httpx2.py`, #728), so header injection, retries and the 401 refresh, the GenAI span, budget and `donkey.last_call` still run in one HTTP stack; `anthropic<1` gets the shared client's non-owning view (#733). The stack is chosen from `anthropic.DefaultAsyncHttpxClient` (an `httpx.AsyncClient` subclass before 1.0). The transport cannot see `send(stream=…)`, so the bridge streams when the JSON body carries `"stream": true` or the `X-Stainless-Raw-Response: stream` header is set; only these Stainless-style signals are recognised. The bridge has a blocking twin over the shared `DonkeyClient` (#728). The ids the shared client sends are copied back onto the framework's request, so `classify(exc.response)` carries the run's correlation id and the sent call id on both stacks (#738). Pinned by `test_anthropic_httpx2_bridge.py` and `test_anthropic_client_stacks.py` (a real client end to end, run on `anthropic==1.9.0` and `0.125.0`) (#701, #738). | MITIGATED | 2026-10-01 |

-| CrewAI native OpenAI provider (`OpenAICompletion`) | all | The provider cannot be routed through the SDK's shared transport, so its calls carry no per-run correlation id, `donkey.last_call` reads UNAVAILABLE, jwt/bearer auth is refused, and CrewAI's own rate-limit retry stays on. Read from the installed source of `crewai==1.15.23` (the newest release) and `crewai==1.15.3` (the extra's floor), with `openai==2.54.0` (#958). **No supported field takes a client:** `_build_sync_client` and `_build_async_client` both start from the one dict `_get_client_params()` returns, which merges the public `client_params` field in, and pass it to `OpenAI(...)` and `AsyncOpenAI(...)`. The openai SDK type-checks `http_client` in each constructor (`httpx.Client` for the sync one, `httpx.AsyncClient` for the async one), so any single value fails one of them. Passing `client_params={"http_client": ...}` with either client type makes `crewai.LLM(...)` raise `ImportError: Error importing native provider: Invalid http_client argument` (reproduced). **The interceptor cannot reroute the send:** with `interceptor` set, both builders replace `http_client` with a fresh `httpx.Client` / `httpx.AsyncClient` around CrewAI's `crewai.llms.hooks.transport.HTTPTransport` / `AsyncHTTPTransport`. Their `handle_request` / `handle_async_request` call `on_outbound` (or `aon_outbound`), then always send through `httpx.HTTPTransport`'s own `handle_request`, then call `on_inbound`. The `BaseInterceptor` hooks can only edit the request and response objects, so the shared client's retry, `_on_request` and `_on_response` never run. The `crewai.hooks` LLM-call hooks (`LLMCallHookContext`) work on messages and response strings, not HTTP. The remaining routes all need private API: the `_client` / `_async_client` private attributes, overriding the `_build_*_client` methods in a subclass, or a client that is both an `httpx.Client` and an `httpx.AsyncClient`. **The rate-limit retry has no off switch:** `BaseLLM.__init_subclass__` wraps every subclass's `call` / `acall` in `run_with_rate_limit_retry` / `arun_with_rate_limit_retry` (`crewai.llms.retry`, new in 1.15.23, absent at 1.15.3), which makes up to `_LLM_RATE_LIMIT_MAX_ATTEMPTS` (3) attempts on any 429.

Reproduced on Python 3.10 with `langgraph==0.3.0`, `0.4.0` and `1.2.12`. **Documented, 3.11+ required for `interrupt()` under `ainvoke()`**: `test_interrupt_and_typed_refusal_compose` is a strict `xfail` on 3.10 (an asserted exemption, not a skip), and `test_interrupt_and_typed_refusal_compose_sync` proves the composition on every supported Python. The nightly `lowest-direct` langgraph leg runs on Python 3.10, so the strict `xfail` is held there on every run (#769, #865). | DOCUMENTED | 2026-10-01 |
+| CrewAI native OpenAI provider (`OpenAICompletion`) | all | The provider cannot be routed through the SDK's shared transport, so its calls carry no per-run correlation id, `donkey.last_call` reads UNAVAILABLE, jwt/bearer auth is refused, and CrewAI's own rate-limit retry stays on. Read from the installed source of `crewai==1.15.23` and `crewai==1.15.3` (the extra's floor), with `openai==2.54.0` (#958), and re-read at `crewai==1.15.27` (#1116), where every claim below still holds. **No supported field takes a client:** `_build_sync_client` and `_build_async_client` both start from the one dict `_get_client_params()` returns, which merges the public `client_params` field in, and pass it to `OpenAI(...)` and `AsyncOpenAI(...)`. The openai SDK type-checks `http_client` in each constructor (`httpx.Client` for the sync one, `httpx.AsyncClient` for the async one), so any single value fails one of them. Passing `client_params={"http_client": ...}` with either client type makes `crewai.LLM(...)` raise `ImportError: Error importing native provider: Invalid http_client argument` (reproduced). **The interceptor cannot reroute the send:** with `interceptor` set, both builders replace `http_client` with a fresh `httpx.Client` / `httpx.AsyncClient` around CrewAI's `crewai.llms.hooks.transport.HTTPTransport` / `AsyncHTTPTransport`. Their `handle_request` / `handle_async_request` call `on_outbound` (or `aon_outbound`), then always send through `httpx.HTTPTransport`'s own `handle_request`, then call `on_inbound`. The `BaseInterceptor` hooks can only edit the request and response objects, so the shared client's retry, `_on_request` and `_on_response` never run. The `crewai.hooks` LLM-call hooks (`LLMCallHookContext`) work on messages and response strings, not HTTP. The remaining routes all need private API: the `_client` / `_async_client` private attributes, overriding the `_build_*_client` methods in a subclass, or a client that is both an `httpx.Client` and an `httpx.AsyncClient`. **The rate-limit retry has no off switch:** `BaseLLM.__init_subclass__` wraps every subclass's `call` / `acall` in `run_with_rate_limit_retry` / `arun_with_rate_limit_retry` (`crewai.llms.retry`, new in 1.15.23, absent at 1.15.3), which makes up to `_LLM_RATE_LIMIT_MAX_ATTEMPTS` (3) attempts on any 429. The only bypass is the private `_active_llm_rate_limit_retry` context variable. **Documented, exemption kept:** `KNOWN_LIMITATIONS["crewai"]` in `tests/conformance/suite.py` (three scenarios), `_CREWAI_RATE_LIMIT_EXEMPTION` in `tests/unit/test_framework_retries.py`, and `CrewAIAdapter.observes_last_call = False`. | DOCUMENTED | 2026-10-12 |

+"""One task runner that mirrors CI (#765, docs/ci.md convention 5).
+
+Every job in ``.github/workflows/ci.yml`` (except the ``ci-ok`` aggregate) is a
+session of the same name here, and the workflow's check steps call these
+sessions, so the checks a PR runs and the checks you run locally are one list.
+
+Locally, from ``python/`` (``pipx install nox``)::
+
+    nox -l                          # list the sessions
+    nox -s typecheck-and-lint test-3.11  # the quick loop: lint, types, one test leg
+    nox -s typecheck-and-lint test  # the same, with the whole 3.10-3.14 test matrix
+    nox                             # every session: the whole blocking CI gate
+    nox -s "adapter-contract(crewai)"   # one leg of a matrix job
+    nox -R -s test-3.11             # rerun in the existing venv, skipping installs
+
+Each session that installs something builds its own virtualenv and installs
+exactly what its CI job installs (``CI_INSTALLS`` below, with the job's
+``-c constraints/...`` lock), so a session's result is the job's result. The
+ones that install nothing (new-dependencies, commit-identities,
+docs-llms-drift, docs-site, workflow-lint) run git, npm, node, stdlib-only
+scripts and the workflow linters on the current interpreter and PATH instead;
+docs-site's ``npm ci`` is one of its checks, in CI too. A Python that is not
+on your machine is skipped, not failed, unless you pass
+``--error-on-missing-interpreters``.
+
+A few steps stay in ci.yml by design, and tests/unit/test_noxfile.py names
+each: benchmark's trend alert reads the previous main run's artifact, and
+workflow-lint's job downloads actionlint and zizmor, sha256-verified, for its
+Linux runner (locally, put the versions that job pins on your PATH). A
+``uses:`` action is never a session: pip-audit's job audits the session's pin

+"""Check the Python snippets in the docs against the real SDK surface (#797).
+
+Most doc bugs are a snippet that names something the SDK does not have: a
+module that moved, a kwarg that was renamed, a method on the wrong object. This
+script reads every Python fence in the READMEs, ``MIGRATION.md`` and the docs
+site, and checks it statically against the installed ``donkey_kit``. Nothing in
+a snippet is executed. Per fence it:
+
+* imports every ``donkey_kit`` module the snippet imports, and looks up every
+  name it imports from one;
+* resolves attribute chains on ``donkey_kit`` objects, starting from imported
+  names and from ``donkey`` (a :class:`~donkey_kit.Donkey` unless the snippet
+  binds it to something else), following property and return annotations, so
+  ``donkey.llm.client`` and ``donkey.langgraph.chat_model`` are both checked;
+* binds each call's arguments to the resolved callable with
+  ``inspect.signature(...).bind_partial``, so an unknown kwarg or one positional
+  argument too many is reported;
+* on a page whose frontmatter says ``status: live``, rejects a call to an API
+  whose body unconditionally raises ``_verify.blocked(...)`` (§0.3): a live
+  page must not show a call that can only raise ``NotImplementedError``.
+
+Pages marked ``status: roadmap`` document planned API and are skipped. Anything
+the checker cannot resolve (third-party objects, values it cannot type) is left
+alone rather than guessed at, so a report is always a real mismatch. A fence
+whose info string carries ``nocheck`` (```` ```python nocheck ````) is skipped;
+use it only for deliberately invalid code, and say why next to it.
+

+"""Remind a PR that changes an SDK surface to update its mapped docs page (#797).
+
+``CONTRIBUTING.md`` §4 (the docs-sync rule) maps each code surface under
+``python/src/donkey_kit/`` (plus the verification ledger and the root
+``README.md``) to the ``website/content/`` page(s) that describe it. This
+script is that map as data. Given the files a PR changed, it lists
+every surface whose code changed while none of its mapped pages did: the PR
+then either updates the page or links a ``documentation`` follow-up issue.
+
+It is a reminder, not a gate: a refactor can change a surface without changing
+what the page says. By default it prints the reminders (as GitHub
+``::warning`` annotations under Actions) and exits 0; ``--strict`` exits 1 when
+there is any.

+version every direct requirement allows, runs the suites, then runs this

+"""Generate the framework-extra co-installability table (#769, #697).
+
+The seven connection_kwargs()-only framework extras are kept out of `[all]`
+because their current releases are not all co-installable upstream (see the
+`all` extra's comment in pyproject.toml). This script records which ones are:
+for every framework extra on its own, every pair, every one next to `[all]`,
+and all of them together with `[all]`, it asks `uv pip compile` for a
+resolution and writes the outcome to `docs/co-installability.md`.
+
+A combination is either `yes` (it resolves) or `no` (the resolver reports
+"No solution found"). Any other outcome (a network error, a timeout, a
+crash) is a hard error, never a silent `no`: an incompatible combination
+must fail with an explicit conflict.
+
+Usage (from `python/`, needs `uv` on PATH and network access to the index):
+
+    python scripts/coinstall_matrix.py           # rewrite docs/co-installability.md
+    python scripts/coinstall_matrix.py --check   # exit 1 if the table changed upstream
+
+The nightly `co-installability` job runs `--check`, so an upstream release
+that makes a pair installable (or breaks one) turns the night red until the
+table is regenerated. `--summary FILE` also appends the table to FILE (the
+job passes `$GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY`).

+"""Generate the docs that restate facts the code owns (#795).
+
+Each class of fact has one owner. Where a page restates a fact the code
+already holds, this script writes that part of the page from the code, and a
+unit test (``tests/unit/test_generated_docs.py``) fails when the committed
+page and the code disagree, the same way the ``docs-llms-drift`` CI job fails
+on stale ``website/public`` files.
+
+Targets:
+
+* ``python/README.md`` — the PyPI description, written whole from the
+  repository ``README.md`` with every relative link made absolute (PyPI does
+  not resolve them). Edit the root ``README.md``, never this copy.
+* ``website/content/reference/configuration.mdx`` — the ``settings-index``
+  region: every ``DonkeyConfig`` field with its env var, config-file key and
+  default, from the field table in ``core/config.py``.
+* ``website/content/cli.mdx`` — the ``cli-reference`` region: every visible
+  ``donkey`` command and option, from the typer app. Needs the ``[cli]`` extra.
+* ``website/content/frameworks/index.mdx`` — the ``adapter-capabilities``
+  region: each adapter's extra and each factory's ``capabilities()``, from the
+  ``ADAPTERS`` roster and the adapter classes.
+* ``website/content/reference/api.mdx`` — the Python API reference, written
+  whole from the public signatures and the first paragraph of each docstring.
+* Per-framework verification status (#1081), owned by ``docs/verified-apis.md``:
+  the §8 Status column rates each factory, the §8.4 roster maps each
+  ``ADAPTERS`` factory to its §8 row and page, and ``conformance_tested`` on
+  the roster gives its depth. From those: the ``framework-status`` table and
+  the ``framework-status-summary`` sentences of ``README.md``, the summary in
+  ``ARCHITECTURE.md``, the status table and card badges of
+  ``website/content/frameworks/index.mdx``, the frontmatter ``status:`` of
+  every ``frameworks/*.mdx`` page, the framework row of ``quickstart.mdx`` and
+  the framework card badge of ``feature-overview.mdx``. A §8 status with no
+  docs label, a factory with no roster row, or a page with no factory fails.
+* Framework version compatibility (#1068): ``docs/framework-support.md`` and
+  ``website/content/frameworks/compatibility.mdx``, written whole. Per adapter
+  package: the floor from its extra in ``pyproject.toml``, the version the PR
+  ``adapter-contract`` leg tests from its lock in ``python/constraints/``, and
+  the open ``docs/verified-apis.md`` §8.1 rows that name it. An unknown §8.1
+  status, a requirement with no ``>=`` floor, or a missing lock or pin fails.
+
+A region sits between two marker comments, ``BEGIN GENERATED: <name>`` and
+``END GENERATED: <name>``; everything between them is replaced.
+Frontmatter, card badges and single table rows are rewritten in place.

+"""The AI changelog impact review of one framework release (#1067).
+
+``framework-release-watch.yml``'s ``ai-review`` job asks a model to read a new
+release's upstream notes against the adapter code that release could affect.
+This script owns both ends of that call, so the workflow holds no prompt text
+and no model output reaches an issue unchecked:
+
+    python scripts/review_framework_release.py --prompt --release JSON \\
+        --github-output PATH
+        # writes the job's `prompt` and `schema` step outputs
+    python scripts/review_framework_release.py --record PATH --release JSON \\
+        --review JSON --model MODEL --run-url URL
+        # validates the model's structured output into impact.json
+
+The ``alert`` job renders ``impact.json`` with :func:`render_impact`, imported by
+``check_framework_releases.py``. Release notes are untrusted input, so every
+string the model returns is treated as untrusted too: :func:`validate_review`
+keeps only the schema's fields and enums, and the renderer escapes Markdown,
+drops HTML and comment markers (the issue's own markers are HTML comments),
+neutralises mentions and issue references, and keeps only ``http(s)``
+citations. A review that holds credential-shaped text is dropped whole. The
+review is advisory: it never flips a ``docs/verified-apis.md`` §8 row and never
+counts as verification (§0.3).
+
+Standard library only, like the rest of the watch's scripts.

+"""Install a built wheel into a clean virtualenv and import it (#767).
+
+``twine check`` proves the long description renders; it does not prove the
+package installs or imports. A PyPI upload cannot be undone, so both publish
+workflows run this on the exact wheel they are about to upload. It:
+
+* creates a fresh virtualenv (no site packages, nothing from this checkout);
+* ``pip install``s the wheel into it, resolving the base dependencies the way
+  a consumer's ``pip install donkey-kit`` would;
+* from an empty working directory, in isolated mode (so the checkout can never
+  shadow the installed package), imports ``donkey_kit`` and the ``Donkey``
+  entry point, and checks the import came from the virtualenv's
+  site-packages and that ``__version__`` equals the installed distribution's
+  version and the expected one.
+
+    python scripts/smoke_test_wheel.py dist/*.whl [--expect-version VERSION]
+
+The workflows pass a glob, so it must expand to exactly one wheel: a second
+one (a stale file, or a platform wheel nobody planned for) is an error rather
+than something to install alongside and leave unchecked.
+``--expect-version`` defaults to the version in the wheel's filename. Each
+``--pip-arg=ARG`` is passed through to ``pip install`` (the unit test passes
+``--pip-arg=--no-index`` to stay offline). Exits non-zero on any failure.

+its error leads back to the SDK's transport. ``core.refusals.capture_refusals``
+records the typed outcome of each governed send made during one framework call,
+the adapter tags the framework's error with it, and ``translate()`` returns the

+"""One version source, and a publish that fails when the tag disagrees (#767).

+
+* the nightly ``lowest-direct`` job installs every floor and runs
+  ``scripts/check_floors.py``, whose floor logic is tested here offline;
+* the ``openai-1x`` PR job holds ``[llm]`` to openai 1.x;

+"""The Actions supply chain stays hardened (#757, docs/ci.md convention 7).
+
+A tag or branch ref can be moved to a different commit after review, so a
+compromised or re-tagged action would run with whatever the job holds: the PyPI
+publishing identity in the publish jobs, Pages write in the docs deploy. These
+checks keep the hardening from eroding one workflow edit at a time:
+
+- every ``uses:`` is a full commit SHA with a ``# vX.Y.Z`` comment (Dependabot
+  moves both);
+- no checkout leaves the job token in ``.git/config``;
+- ``id-token: write`` and ``pages: write`` are granted per job, only to the
+  jobs that publish;
+- Dependabot, CODEOWNERS and the binary-image attributes exist and cover what
+  the issue asked for.
+
+``workflow-lint`` in ci.yml runs actionlint and zizmor over the same files; this
+suite is the offline, framework-free half that the base-only job also runs.

+The artifacts stay committed on purpose (#795). Every PR diff shows how a page
+edit changes what assistants read, the drift job checks them without a build,

+## Generated from the SDK code
+
+Some pages restate facts that live in the Python code. Those parts are written

+- the `BEGIN GENERATED` regions in `content/reference/configuration.mdx`
+  (settings index), `content/cli.mdx` (command reference) and
+  `content/frameworks/index.mdx` (adapter capabilities).
+
+Edit the code or docstring, then run the script from `python/` and commit the
+result. The unit test `tests/unit/test_generated_docs.py` fails when a
+committed copy is stale. The prose around a region is hand-written as usual.

+3-second timeout. If PyPI can't be reached, the banner shows only the

-what is available now and `<Badge tone="roadmap">Roadmap</Badge>` for what is
-planned. Delivery detail (phases, milestones, issues) belongs on the Roadmap
-page only.
+Every page declares its status in frontmatter, in one vocabulary that follows
+the verification ledger (`docs/verified-apis.md`, §0.3):
+
+```yaml
+---
+description: …
+status: live            # or offline-verified, or roadmap
+---
+```
+
+| `status` | Means | Badge |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `live` | Shipped, and the gateway contract it rests on is `VERIFIED (LIVE)` / `VERIFIED (CLI)` in the ledger. | Live |
+| `offline-verified` | Shipped and proven offline (conformance against the simulator, `verify_frameworks.py` signature checks), with no live round-trip yet: the ledger row reads UNVERIFIED (signature confirmed). | Offline-verified |
+| `roadmap` | Planned design, or an API that raises `_verify.blocked(...)` until its ledger row is confirmed. | Roadmap |
+
+The page-level badge is rendered from that value (see
+[`lib/status.mjs`](lib/status.mjs)), and the same value is shown in
+`llms.txt` and under the H1 of each per-page `.md`, so don't hand-write a
+`<Badge>` under the H1. `statusBadge: false` hides the badge on pages that
+document no SDK surface (the landing page, the roadmap, the community pages).
+Inline badges in tables, cards and legends are still written by hand. A page
+is rated by the surface its main code uses (a scenario built on
+`donkey.langgraph.chat_model(...)` is `offline-verified`, like the framework
+pages); when one section of a page stands on a weaker ledger row than the rest,
+that section carries its own inline badge, as the framework card on the
+Feature overview does. A missing or unknown status fails `npm test`, `node scripts/generate-llms.mjs`
+and `npm run build`.
+
+The status is also what the Python snippet check reads
+(`python/scripts/check_doc_snippets.py`, run by the unit suite in CI): every
+Python fence must import, resolve and bind against the real SDK, `roadmap`
+pages are exempt, and a `live` page may not call an API that raises
+`_verify.blocked(...)`. Delivery detail (phases, milestones, issues) belongs on
+the Roadmap page only.

+[co-installability table](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/blob/main/docs/co-installability.md).

+## More detail

+The [framework support reference](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/blob/main/docs/framework-support.md) in the repository has the
+same table, where each column comes from, which CI job tests each version,
+and the full list of recorded upstream changes, including those the SDK
+already handles.

+status: live
+---
+
+{/* Generated by python/scripts/generate_docs.py from the package's signatures and docstrings. Do not
+edit by hand: change the docstring, then run the script. */}
+
+# Python API reference
+
+The public API of `donkey-kit`, generated from its
+signatures and docstrings. Each entry shows the first paragraph of the
+docstring; `help()` on the object prints the rest. Everything listed here is
+importable from `donkey_kit`.
+
+## `Donkey`
+
+The SDK entry point: one governed handle on Agent Fabric.
+
+Each framework adapter is an attribute too, listed under
+[Framework adapters](#framework-adapters).
+
+```python nocheck
+Donkey(
+    config: DonkeyConfig | None = None,
+    *,
+    auth: AuthProvider | None = None,
+    llm_auth: AuthProvider | None = None,
+) -> None
+```
+
+### `Donkey.from_env()`
+
+```python nocheck
+Donkey.from_env(
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    path: str | os.PathLike[str] | None = None,
+    **overrides: Unpack[ConfigOverrides],
+) -> Donkey
+```
+
+Build from the environment and the config files, with any `DonkeyConfig` field set in code on top.
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration#precedence`](/reference/configuration#precedence)
+
+### `donkey.config`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.config: DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+The resolved configuration this Donkey was built with (read-only).
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration`](/reference/configuration)
+
+### `donkey.llm`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm: LLMClient
+```
+
+The governed model-call surface: native OpenAI-compatible clients and per-framework connection kwargs pointed at the proxy.
+
+Guide: [`/quickstart`](/quickstart)
+
+### `donkey.budget`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget: Budget
+```
+
+The token-budget window for this Donkey, updated in-band from every response's `x-token-*` headers. Unobserved (all fields `None`) until the first call returns; there is no budget-query endpoint, so it is only as fresh as `budget.observed_at`.
+
+### `donkey.last_call`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call: LastCall
+```
+
+The gateway's own metadata about the most recent governed model call in this context — its `request_id`, `api_instance_id` and `environment_id`; what the gateway *did* with the request — `served_provider` / `served_model` / `routing_type` and the `fallback` flag, with `substituted` true when the served model differs from `requested_model`; and the per-call usage token counts (`input_tokens` / `output_tokens` / `total_tokens` and the cost-relevant `cached_tokens` / `cache_write_tokens` / `reasoning_tokens`). The success-path counterpart to the ids `DonkeyError` hands you on a refusal.
+
+### `donkey.openai()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.openai(*, sync: bool = False, **kw: Any) -> AsyncOpenAI | OpenAI
+```
+
+The headline two-line ergonomic: a native OpenAI client pointed at the governed proxy, with nothing new to learn.
+
+### `donkey.http_client()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.http_client(*, sync: bool = False) -> DonkeyAsyncClientView | DonkeyClientView
+```
+
+The governed data-plane `httpx` client, for a framework or SDK that takes one (`http_client=`, `async_http_client=`, a pre-built `AsyncOpenAI`). Requests sent through it get the same headers, retries, span, budget and `donkey.last_call` as every adapter.
+
+### `donkey.registry`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.registry: ExchangeRegistry
+```
+
+The Exchange registry client used for tool discovery and resolution.
+
+Guide: [`/tool-access/discovery`](/tool-access/discovery)
+
+### `donkey.tools`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.tools: ToolsFacade
+```
+
+Governed tool discovery and the `donkey.lock` lockfile.
+
+Guide: [`/tool-access`](/tool-access)
+
+### `donkey.run()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.run(
+    id: str | None = None,
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    typed_refusals: bool = True,
+) -> RunScope
+```
+
+Group one logical agent run under a shared correlation id.
+
+### `donkey.run_context()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.run_context(run_id: str | None = None) -> RunScope
+```
+
+Deprecated alias for `run`: use `donkey.run(id=…)`. Emits a `DeprecationWarning`.
+
+### `donkey.cache()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.cache(
+    *,
+    skip: bool | None = None,
+    no_store: bool | None = None,
+    ttl: int | None = None,
+    threshold: float | None = None,
+    principal_id: str | None = None,
+) -> CacheScope
+```
+
+Steer the gateway's **semantic cache** for every governed model call in the block.
+
+### `donkey.governed()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.governed(
+    func: Callable[P, R] | None = None,
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    typed_refusals: bool = True,
+) -> Callable[P, R] | Callable[[Callable[P, R]], Callable[P, R]]
+```
+
+Wrap a callable so its body runs inside a `donkey.run()` scope.
+
+### `donkey.tool()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.tool(func: Callable) -> Callable
+```
+
+Mark a callable as a governed tool **without changing call behaviour**, recording its name, signature and docstring in an introspectable registry.
+
+### `donkey.simulate()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.simulate(
+    error: type[DonkeyError],
+    *,
+    times: int = 1,
+) -> AbstractContextManager[None]
+```
+
+Inject a real gateway refusal in-process, no server.
+
+### `donkey.aclose()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.aclose() -> None
+```
+
+Close every transport this Donkey owns: the data-plane and control-plane clients, the connected-app token-fetch client it built (a caller-supplied `auth` provider stays caller-owned), and the blocking client. Each one is closed even if an earlier close raises.
+
+### `donkey.close()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.close() -> None
+```
+
+Close the blocking transport.
+
+## `DonkeyConfig`
+
+Everything the SDK needs to reach Agent Fabric, resolved once and immutable.
+
+Its fields are listed in [Configuration](/reference/configuration#all-settings).
+
+### `DonkeyConfig.resolve()`
+
+```python nocheck
+DonkeyConfig.resolve(
+    *,
+    path: str | os.PathLike[str] | None = None,
+    **overrides: Unpack[ConfigOverrides],
+) -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Resolve every field along the configured precedence.
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration#precedence`](/reference/configuration#precedence)
+
+### `DonkeyConfig.from_env()`
+
+```python nocheck
+DonkeyConfig.from_env() -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Build from env + the optional config files: `resolve` with no arguments (see the module docstring). Does not validate; call `validated` when you know which capability you need.
+
+### `config.control_plane_url`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.control_plane_url: str
+```
+
+The Anypoint control-plane base URL — explicit override or region.
+
+### `config.source_of()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.source_of(name: str) -> ConfigSource
+```
+
+Where field `name` was resolved from. `explicit` (set in code) when `resolve` did not resolve it or its value has changed since, e.g. through `dataclasses.replace`, `with_overrides` or direct construction; copies that keep the value keep the label, and so does `DonkeyConfig(**dataclasses.asdict(cfg))` in the same process. A label recorded in another process can't be checked against the value: an endpoint keeps it and a credential counts as set in code.
+
+### `config.with_overrides()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.with_overrides(**kw: Unpack[ConfigOverrides]) -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Return a copy with the given fields replaced.
+
+### `config.validated()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.validated(*, need: Capability = 'control_plane') -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Return self if valid for the requested capability, else raise a `ConfigError` listing EVERY missing field at once.
+
+### `config.missing_fields()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.missing_fields(*, need: Capability) -> list[str]
+```
+
+Every required field for `need` that is unset, each with the env var that sets it. The list `validated` reports.
+
+### `config.check_endpoints()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.check_endpoints(*, need: Capability, code_credential: str | None = None) -> None

+Raise `ConfigError` if `need`'s endpoint may not receive the credentials that would be sent to it.
+
+## `LLMClient` (`donkey.llm`)
+
+The framework-free proxy client factory.
+
+### `donkey.llm.close()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.close() -> None
+```
+
+Close the blocking client built by this standalone factory, if any.
+
+### `donkey.llm.aclose()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.llm.aclose() -> None
+```
+
+Close this factory's owned blocking client in an async scope.
+
+### `donkey.llm.client()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.client(*, sync: bool = False, **kw: Any) -> AsyncOpenAI | OpenAI
+```
+
+An OpenAI client pointed at the LLM proxy, using our shared http client so headers + retries apply.
+
+### `donkey.llm.list_models()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.llm.list_models(*, live: bool = False) -> list[ModelHandle]
+```
+
+List logical models the proxy exposes.
+
+### `donkey.llm.resolve()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.resolve(model_id: str, *, provider: str | None = None) -> ModelHandle
+```
+
+A heuristic `ModelHandle` for a known model id.
+
+## `Budget` (`donkey.budget`)
+
+The token-budget window for one `Donkey`, updated in-band from each response's budget headers (numeric `x-token-*` or the prose `x-llm-proxy-ratelimit` fallback). Its request-count sibling is `requests`.
+
+### `donkey.budget.observe()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget.observe(response: httpx.Response, *, now: datetime | None = None) -> None
+```
+
+Update from a response's budget headers.
+
+### `donkey.budget.pace()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget.pace(
+    *,
+    reserve: float = 0.0,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> AbstractAsyncContextManager[None]
+```
+
+Guard a request so it is refused *before* it crosses your reserve, not after a 429 comes back.
+
+### `donkey.budget.wait_for_reset()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.budget.wait_for_reset(
+    *,
+    window: str | None = None,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> None
+```
+
+Sleep until the tripped window's `reset_at`, then return — the recovery half of pacing.
+
+## `LastCall` (`donkey.last_call`)
+
+What the gateway said about the most recent governed model call.
+
+Its fields are listed in [`last_call` fields](/reference/last-call).
+
+### `donkey.last_call.observed`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.observed: bool
+```
+
+True iff a governed response actually populated this record.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.substituted`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.substituted: bool
+```
+
+True iff the gateway served a *different* model than the one requested — a silent model substitution the developer's cost model, token assumptions and evaluation are otherwise blind to. Requires both the requested and served model to be known; a missing either side is not a substitution claim. A `provider/` prefix naming `served_provider` is not a difference — see `is_substitution`.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.cache_hit`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.cache_hit: bool
+```
+
+True iff the gateway served this call from its semantic cache (`cache_status` == `"hit"`) — a verbatim replay with no provider round-trip. The zero-spend read a cost rollup uses to exclude a hit's replayed `usage` from fresh spend. `False` for every other status and for an unobserved / non-cached response.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.available`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.available: bool
+```
+
+False only when the current surface structurally cannot be observed (the framework owns the transport, or the adapter gets only `default_headers`); a plain cold read is still `available` — it just has not observed anything yet.
+
+### `LastCall.from_response()`
+
+```python nocheck
+LastCall.from_response(
+    response: httpx.Response,
+    *,
+    requested_model: str | None = None,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> LastCall
+```
+
+Build an `OBSERVED` record from a governed response's headers.
+
+## Framework adapters
+
+`donkey.<attribute>` imports the adapter on first use. If its framework is
+not installed, the access raises `ImportError` with the `pip install` line.
+See [Frameworks](/frameworks) for what each factory returns.
+
+| Attribute | Install | Factories |
+|---|---|---|
+| `donkey.langgraph` | `pip install "donkey-kit[langgraph]"` | `chat_model()` |

+
+## Exceptions
+
+Every typed refusal and SDK error. See [Typed refusals](/errors) for when each
+is raised.
+
+| Exception | Base | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `AgentKilled` | `PolicyViolation` | The gateway's Agent Kill Switch blocked this agent — it is quarantined in Governance > Security, or listed in the policy's *Killed Agent IDs*. |
+| `AuthError` | `DonkeyError` | Rejected credentials on the Anypoint control plane or LLM-proxy data plane. |
+| `BudgetReserveReached` | `DonkeyError` | Raised by `Budget.pace` *before* it lets a request through that would cross the caller's reserve. |
+| `ConfigError` | `DonkeyError` | Configuration is missing or invalid, or an endpoint may not receive the credentials that would be sent to it (see `DonkeyConfig.check_endpoints`). Raised locally before any request; reports ALL missing fields at once. The transport also raises it, with its own remediation, for a send on a closed client or from a closed event loop. |
+| `ContentSafetyBlocked` | `PolicyViolation` | A provider-backed content-moderation policy (Azure Content Safety or Amazon Bedrock Guardrails) blocked the request or response. |
+| `DonkeyError` | `Exception` | Base for all SDK errors. Carries correlation/call/request IDs and the raw response so callers can inspect what actually happened. |
+| `GatewayUnavailable` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway could not be reached at all — a transport-level failure (DNS, refused connection, TLS error, timeout) with NO HTTP response behind it. |
+| `ModelNotRoutable` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway could not pick a provider for the requested model, so it rejected the request before any upstream call. |
+| `ModelSubstituted` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway served a *different* model than the one requested — a routing fallback substituted the model, and `on_model_substitution="raise"` opted the caller into treating that as an error. |
+| `PIIDetected` | `PolicyViolation` | The PII-detection policy blocked the request or response. |
+| `PolicyViolation` | `DonkeyError` | Base for gateway-enforced refusals. NEVER retried. |
+| `PromptInjectionBlocked` | `PolicyViolation` | The prompt-injection-protection policy flagged the request as an injection attempt. |
+| `RequestRateLimitExceeded` | `PolicyViolation` | A request-rate-limit policy refused the request: the window's request count is spent. |
+| `TokenBudgetExceeded` | `PolicyViolation` | A token-rate-limit policy refused the request: the budget window is spent. |
+| `UpstreamModelError` | `DonkeyError` | Provider-side failure (5xx). Retryable. |
+| `UpstreamRequestError` | `DonkeyError` | The upstream provider rejected the request (4xx), passed through the gateway verbatim (e.g. OpenAI `model_not_found`). This is a client-side mistake, NOT a gateway policy refusal and NOT a provider outage, so it is terminal (never retried) but distinct from `PolicyViolation`. |

+# Release notes
+
+The release notes for every `donkey-kit` version are its
+[GitHub Release](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases).
+There is no separate changelog file, so the Release is the one place to read
+what changed. The **Changelog** link on
+[PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/donkey-kit/) points at the same page.
+
+Each Release covers:
+
+- **Breaking changes.** Every Release has this section. It lists each break
+  with its migration, or says `None.`.
+- **Verification-status changes**, for example an adapter that moved from
+  signature-confirmed to live-verified.
+- **Extras changes**, such as a new framework floor.
+- The pull requests in the release, grouped as features, fixes, docs and
+  maintenance.
+
+To read the notes for one version, open
+`https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases/tag/v<version>`,
+for example
+[`v0.1.3`](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases/tag/v0.1.3).
+
+## Which version you have
+
+```bash
+python -c "import donkey_kit; print(donkey_kit.__version__)"
+pip index versions donkey-kit      # the versions published on PyPI
+```
+
+The banner at the top of each page shows which version these docs describe.
+When it differs from the latest release on PyPI, the banner shows both. The
+site is built from the released branch, so it describes the latest release
+unless a newer one was published after the last build.

+description: How to read donkey doctor output, tell apart failures that look the same, explain an UNAVAILABLE donkey.last_call, and fix a 401 in JWT mode.
+status: live
+---
+
+import { Callout } from 'nextra/components'
+
+# Troubleshooting
+
+Start with `donkey doctor`. It makes one real governed call and tells apart the
+failures that look the same from your code. The sections below explain each
+line it prints, then cover the problems `doctor` can't see.
+
+```bash
+pip install "donkey-kit[cli]"
+donkey doctor                  # or: donkey doctor --model <model-id> --json
+```
+
+## Reading `donkey doctor`
+
+Each line starts with a level. Only `[!!]` makes `doctor` exit non-zero, so you
+can run it as a CI preflight.
+
+| Glyph | Level | Means |
+|---|---|---|
+| `[ok]` | ok | The check passed. |
+| `[!!]` | fail | The check failed. The next line is the `remediation` text from the typed exception for that failure. |
+| `[i] ` | info | Context, such as where an endpoint came from or the budget reading. |
+| `[--]` | skip | Not checked, because an earlier check failed. |
+
+The lines, in the order they appear:
+
+| Line | Fails when | What to do |
+|---|---|---|
+| `config` | A required LLM-proxy field is missing, or the proxy URL may not receive the configured credentials. | The remediation lists every missing field and the env var for each. For the credentials case, see [Which credentials a URL receives](/reference/configuration#which-credentials-a-url-receives). |
+| `llm endpoint`, `control plane` | Never (info). | Check the host and its source: `env`, `project file`, `local overlay`, `user file` or `default`. A value from an unexpected source usually means a stale config file. |
+| `plain http` | Never (info). Shown only when `DONKEY_ALLOW_HTTP` is on. | Turn it off outside local testing. See [Endpoints must use `https://`](/reference/configuration#endpoints-must-use-https). |
+| `gateway` | No HTTP response at all (DNS, refused connection, TLS, timeout), or an empty `404` with no proxy on the base path. | See [Wrong URL or no proxy](#wrong-url-or-no-proxy). |
+| `credentials` | The gateway answered `401`, or `403` with `www-authenticate`. | See [`401` and `403`](#401-and-403). |
+| `model` | The provider rejected the model (the `model_not_found` pass-through). | Request the model from your platform team, or pass another one with `--model`. |
+| `responses`, `chat completions` | The route's upstream does not serve `/responses` (an Azure OpenAI route). The run still exits `0` if `/chat/completions` answers. | Call the route with `client.chat.completions.create(...)`. |
+| `policy` | Never (info). A policy refused the probe itself, such as a spent budget. | Read the typed refusal. See [Typed refusals](/errors). |
+| `budget` | Never (info). | The reading is only as fresh as the last response, because the proxy has no budget-query endpoint. `observed … ago` says how old it is. |
+
+The [CLI page](/cli#donkey-doctor) has sample output for a healthy proxy and
+for an Azure OpenAI route.
+
+## Failures that look alike
+
+### Wrong URL or no proxy
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `GatewayUnavailable` and `doctor` prints `gateway  unreachable` | DNS, a refused connection, TLS or a timeout. No HTTP response came back. | Check the host in `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL`, your network egress and any proxy between you and the gateway. |
+| An empty `404`, and `doctor` prints `no proxy on this base path` | The gateway answered, but nothing is deployed at that path. Credentials and model were not checked. | Check the path for a typo, remove a trailing `/v1` (the governed proxy has no `/v1` segment), and confirm the proxy is Active in API Manager. |
+| A `404` that carries `x-llm-proxy-*` headers | The proxy routed the model, but the upstream does not serve the API you called. | Use the API the upstream serves. On an Azure OpenAI route, use Chat Completions. |
+
+`DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL` is the proxy base with a trailing slash:
+`https://<ingress-gw>/<instance>/`. See
+[Governed model access](/reference/configuration#governed-model-access).
+
+### `401` and `403`
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `401` with `www-authenticate: Client-ID-Enforcement` | The gateway rejected the `client_id` / `client_secret` pair. | Check `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_ID` and `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET`, and ask your platform team to confirm that this app has access to the proxy. |
+| `401` in `jwt` mode | The gateway rejected the JWT, even after one refresh. | See [A `401` in JWT mode](#a-401-in-jwt-mode). |
+| `403` with a nested `type: "pii_detected"` | A PII policy blocked the content. This is `PIIDetected`, not an auth failure. | Redact the values listed in `.entities`. |
+| `403` with a nested `code: "agent_killed"` | The agent is quarantined. This is `AgentKilled`. | Ask an administrator to restore it. |
+| `403` with an `x-llm-proxy-<vendor>-…-action: reject` header | A content-safety policy blocked the content. This is `ContentSafetyBlocked`. | Revise the content listed in `.categories`. |
+
+The SDK reads the body and headers to pick the exception, so catch the typed
+exception rather than matching on the status code. The full list is in
+[The rejection shapes `classify()` types](/errors#the-rejection-shapes-classify-types).
+
+### `429`: budget or request rate
+
+Both are `429`, and neither is retried by the SDK.
+
+| Symptom | Exception | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| Empty body with `x-token-limit`, `x-token-remaining` and `x-token-reset` headers | `TokenBudgetExceeded` | Wait for `.retry_after`, or pace calls with [`donkey.budget.pace()`](/budget). |
+| Body `{"error":"Too Many Requests"}` with `x-ratelimit-*` headers and no `x-token-*` headers | `RequestRateLimitExceeded` | Wait for `.retry_after`, or send fewer requests per window. |
+
+CrewAI retries any `429` three times inside its own code. See the
+[CrewAI page](/frameworks/crewai#notes).
+
+### `5xx`
+
+`UpstreamModelError` is a provider failure. The SDK retries a `503`, and
+retries a `502` or `504` on a model call only with
+[`retry_model_calls_on_gateway_errors`](/reference/configuration#behaviour).
+If it persists, the provider is down: retry later or fall back.
+
+## `donkey.last_call` says `UNAVAILABLE`
+
+`UNAVAILABLE` means the SDK can't see this call's response, so the gateway's
+metadata can't be read. It does not mean the call failed.
+
+`donkey.last_call` is filled in from the response as it passes through the
+SDK's shared HTTP client. CrewAI builds its own client, so its calls never pass
+through. On a `Donkey` whose only resolved adapter is CrewAI, `last_call`
+reports `UNAVAILABLE`, and `surface` names the adapter.
+
+| `status` | Means | What to do |
+|---|---|---|
+| `OBSERVED` | A governed response filled in the record. | Nothing. |
+| `UNOBSERVED` | No governed call has returned in this context yet. | Read it after the call, in the same task or `donkey.run()` block. |
+| `UNAVAILABLE` | The adapter named in `surface` sends outside the SDK. | Use an adapter whose `capabilities().observes_last_call` is `True` (see [the table](/frameworks#what-each-factory-gets-capabilities)), or read the gateway's own logs. |
+
+See [`last_call` fields](/reference/last-call) and
+[When `last_call` is unavailable](/telemetry#when-last_call-is-unavailable).
+
+## A `401` in JWT mode
+
+In `jwt` mode the SDK gets the token from the `llm_auth` provider you pass to
+`Donkey(llm_auth=…)`. On a `401` from a model call, the async client calls
+`invalidate()` on that provider, sends the request once more with the new
+token, and raises `AuthError` if that fails too.
+
+Work through these in order:
+
+1. **No provider.** Without `llm_auth`, every adapter's `connection_kwargs()`
+   raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode. Pass a provider.
+2. **A blocking call.** The blocking client (`sync=True`, or a framework's
+   `invoke()` / `complete()`) raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode, because the
+   token is async-only. Use the async API.
+3. **The token never changes.** `StaticToken` does not refresh, so the retry
+   sends the same expired token. Use a provider that fetches a new token when
+   `invalidate()` is called.
+4. **The wallet client ID.** `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_WALLET_CLIENT_ID` is sent as
+   `X-Client-Id` and selects the wallet. It is required in `jwt` mode and is
+   not the IdP's client ID.
+5. **CrewAI.** CrewAI builds its own client, so the JWT never reaches its
+   requests and `donkey.crewai` raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode. Use
+   client-id auth with CrewAI.
+
+See [JWT / model-wallet auth mode](/reference/configuration#jwt--model-wallet-auth-mode)
+and [Auth providers](/reference/configuration#auth-providers).

+
+## Failures that look alike
+
+### Wrong URL or no proxy
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `GatewayUnavailable` and `doctor` prints `gateway  unreachable` | DNS, a refused connection, TLS or a timeout. No HTTP response came back. | Check the host in `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL`, your network egress and any proxy between you and the gateway. |
+| An empty `404`, and `doctor` prints `no proxy on this base path` | The gateway answered, but nothing is deployed at that path. Credentials and model were not checked. | Check the path for a typo, remove a trailing `/v1` (the governed proxy has no `/v1` segment), and confirm the proxy is Active in API Manager. |
+| A `404` that carries `x-llm-proxy-*` headers | The proxy routed the model, but the upstream does not serve the API you called. | Use the API the upstream serves. On an Azure OpenAI route, use Chat Completions. |
+
+`DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL` is the proxy base with a trailing slash:
+`https://<ingress-gw>/<instance>/`. See
+[Governed model access](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#governed-model-access).
+
+### `401` and `403`
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `401` with `www-authenticate: Client-ID-Enforcement` | The gateway rejected the `client_id` / `client_secret` pair. | Check `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_ID` and `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET`, and ask your platform team to confirm that this app has access to the proxy. |
+| `401` in `jwt` mode | The gateway rejected the JWT, even after one refresh. | See [A `401` in JWT mode](#a-401-in-jwt-mode). |
+| `403` with a nested `type: "pii_detected"` | A PII policy blocked the content. This is `PIIDetected`, not an auth failure. | Redact the values listed in `.entities`. |
+| `403` with a nested `code: "agent_killed"` | The agent is quarantined. This is `AgentKilled`. | Ask an administrator to restore it. |
+| `403` with an `x-llm-proxy-<vendor>-…-action: reject` header | A content-safety policy blocked the content. This is `ContentSafetyBlocked`. | Revise the content listed in `.categories`. |
+
+The SDK reads the body and headers to pick the exception, so catch the typed
+exception rather than matching on the status code. The full list is in
+[The rejection shapes `classify()` types](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/errors.md#the-rejection-shapes-classify-types).
+
+### `429`: budget or request rate
+
+Both are `429`, and neither is retried by the SDK.
+
+| Symptom | Exception | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| Empty body with `x-token-limit`, `x-token-remaining` and `x-token-reset` headers | `TokenBudgetExceeded` | Wait for `.retry_after`, or pace calls with [`donkey.budget.pace()`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/budget.md). |
+| Body `{"error":"Too Many Requests"}` with `x-ratelimit-*` headers and no `x-token-*` headers | `RequestRateLimitExceeded` | Wait for `.retry_after`, or send fewer requests per window. |
+
+CrewAI retries any `429` three times inside its own code. See the
+[CrewAI page](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/frameworks/crewai.md#notes).
+
+### `5xx`
+
+`UpstreamModelError` is a provider failure. The SDK retries a `503`, and
+retries a `502` or `504` on a model call only with
+[`retry_model_calls_on_gateway_errors`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#behaviour).
+If it persists, the provider is down: retry later or fall back.
+
+## `donkey.last_call` says `UNAVAILABLE`
+
+`UNAVAILABLE` means the SDK can't see this call's response, so the gateway's
+metadata can't be read. It does not mean the call failed.
+
+`donkey.last_call` is filled in from the response as it passes through the
+SDK's shared HTTP client. CrewAI builds its own client, so its calls never pass
+through. On a `Donkey` whose only resolved adapter is CrewAI, `last_call`
+reports `UNAVAILABLE`, and `surface` names the adapter.
+
+| `status` | Means | What to do |
+|---|---|---|
+| `OBSERVED` | A governed response filled in the record. | Nothing. |
+| `UNOBSERVED` | No governed call has returned in this context yet. | Read it after the call, in the same task or `donkey.run()` block. |
+| `UNAVAILABLE` | The adapter named in `surface` sends outside the SDK. | Use an adapter whose `capabilities().observes_last_call` is `True` (see [the table](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/frameworks.md#what-each-factory-gets-capabilities)), or read the gateway's own logs. |
+
+See [`last_call` fields](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/last-call.md) and
+[When `last_call` is unavailable](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/telemetry.md#when-last_call-is-unavailable).
+
+## A `401` in JWT mode
+
+In `jwt` mode the SDK gets the token from the `llm_auth` provider you pass to
+`Donkey(llm_auth=…)`. On a `401` from a model call, the async client calls
+`invalidate()` on that provider, sends the request once more with the new
+token, and raises `AuthError` if that fails too.
+
+Work through these in order:
+
+1. **No provider.** Without `llm_auth`, every adapter's `connection_kwargs()`
+   raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode. Pass a provider.
+2. **A blocking call.** The blocking client (`sync=True`, or a framework's
+   `invoke()` / `complete()`) raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode, because the
+   token is async-only. Use the async API.
+3. **The token never changes.** `StaticToken` does not refresh, so the retry
+   sends the same expired token. Use a provider that fetches a new token when
+   `invalidate()` is called.
+4. **The wallet client ID.** `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_WALLET_CLIENT_ID` is sent as
+   `X-Client-Id` and selects the wallet. It is required in `jwt` mode and is
+   not the IdP's client ID.
+5. **CrewAI.** CrewAI builds its own client, so the JWT never reaches its
+   requests and `donkey.crewai` raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode. Use
+   client-id auth with CrewAI.
+
+See [JWT / model-wallet auth mode](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#jwt--model-wallet-auth-mode)
+and [Auth providers](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#auth-providers).
+
+  Still stuck? Run `donkey --json doctor`, remove any secrets from the output,
+  and include it in an issue on
+  [GitHub](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/issues).

+There is no separate changelog file, so the Release is the one place to read
+what changed. The **Changelog** link on
+[PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/donkey-kit/) points at the same page.
+
+Each Release covers:
+
+- **Breaking changes.** Every Release has this section. It lists each break
+  with its migration, or says `None.`.
+- **Verification-status changes**, for example an adapter that moved from
+  signature-confirmed to live-verified.
+- **Extras changes**, such as a new framework floor.
+- The pull requests in the release, grouped as features, fixes, docs and
+  maintenance.
+
+To read the notes for one version, open
+`https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases/tag/v<version>`,
+for example
+[`v0.1.3`](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases/tag/v0.1.3).
+
+## Which version you have
+
+```bash
+python -c "import donkey_kit; print(donkey_kit.__version__)"
+pip index versions donkey-kit      # the versions published on PyPI
+```
+
+The banner at the top of each page shows which version these docs describe.
+When it differs from the latest release on PyPI, the banner shows both. The
+site is built from the released branch, so it describes the latest release
+unless a newer one was published after the last build.
+
+  The [Python API reference](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/api.md) is generated from the code of the
+  version these docs describe. For another version, run `help()` on the object
+  in your own environment.

 ### Run the pre-PR gate
 
-Run the same checks CI runs, from `python/`:
+Every CI job is a [nox](https://nox.thea.codes/) session of the same name, so one
+command runs the checks CI runs. From the repository root:
 
 ```bash
-pip install -e ".[llm,cli]" --group dev   # pip 25.1+
-pytest -q          # tests
-mypy               # mypy --strict
-ruff check .       # lint
-lint-imports       # the framework-free core contract
+pipx install nox pre-commit     # once
+pre-commit install              # once per clone: gitleaks, ruff, ruff format, lint-imports, and the llms regeneration (needs Node) at commit
+cd python
+nox -s typecheck-and-lint test-3.11  # types, lint, format, import contracts, one test leg
+nox                             # every CI job
 ```
 
+Each session that installs something builds its own environment and installs
+what its CI job installs.
+A Python version you don't have is skipped, and CI still runs it. The
+[contributor guide](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#the-pre-pr-gate)
+lists every session and what CI checks that a local run can't.

+# Python API reference
+
+Status: Live. Shipped, and verified against a real governed gateway.
+
+The public API of `donkey-kit`, generated from its
+signatures and docstrings. Each entry shows the first paragraph of the
+docstring; `help()` on the object prints the rest. Everything listed here is
+importable from `donkey_kit`.
+
+## `Donkey`
+
+The SDK entry point: one governed handle on Agent Fabric.
+
+Each framework adapter is an attribute too, listed under
+[Framework adapters](#framework-adapters).
+
+```python nocheck
+Donkey(
+    config: DonkeyConfig | None = None,
+    *,
+    auth: AuthProvider | None = None,
+    llm_auth: AuthProvider | None = None,
+) -> None
+```
+
+### `Donkey.from_env()`
+
+```python nocheck
+Donkey.from_env(
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    path: str | os.PathLike[str] | None = None,
+    **overrides: Unpack[ConfigOverrides],
+) -> Donkey
+```
+
+Build from the environment and the config files, with any `DonkeyConfig` field set in code on top.
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration#precedence`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#precedence)
+
+### `donkey.config`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.config: DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+The resolved configuration this Donkey was built with (read-only).
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md)
+
+### `donkey.llm`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm: LLMClient
+```
+
+The governed model-call surface: native OpenAI-compatible clients and per-framework connection kwargs pointed at the proxy.
+
+Guide: [`/quickstart`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/quickstart.md)
+
+### `donkey.budget`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget: Budget
+```
+
+The token-budget window for this Donkey, updated in-band from every response's `x-token-*` headers. Unobserved (all fields `None`) until the first call returns; there is no budget-query endpoint, so it is only as fresh as `budget.observed_at`.
+
+### `donkey.last_call`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call: LastCall
+```
+
+The gateway's own metadata about the most recent governed model call in this context — its `request_id`, `api_instance_id` and `environment_id`; what the gateway *did* with the request — `served_provider` / `served_model` / `routing_type` and the `fallback` flag, with `substituted` true when the served model differs from `requested_model`; and the per-call usage token counts (`input_tokens` / `output_tokens` / `total_tokens` and the cost-relevant `cached_tokens` / `cache_write_tokens` / `reasoning_tokens`). The success-path counterpart to the ids `DonkeyError` hands you on a refusal.
+
+### `donkey.openai()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.openai(*, sync: bool = False, **kw: Any) -> AsyncOpenAI | OpenAI
+```
+
+The headline two-line ergonomic: a native OpenAI client pointed at the governed proxy, with nothing new to learn.
+
+### `donkey.http_client()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.http_client(*, sync: bool = False) -> DonkeyAsyncClientView | DonkeyClientView
+```
+
+The governed data-plane `httpx` client, for a framework or SDK that takes one (`http_client=`, `async_http_client=`, a pre-built `AsyncOpenAI`). Requests sent through it get the same headers, retries, span, budget and `donkey.last_call` as every adapter.
+
+### `donkey.registry`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.registry: ExchangeRegistry
+```
+
+The Exchange registry client used for tool discovery and resolution.
+
+Guide: [`/tool-access/discovery`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/tool-access/discovery.md)
+
+### `donkey.tools`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.tools: ToolsFacade
+```
+
+Governed tool discovery and the `donkey.lock` lockfile.
+
+Guide: [`/tool-access`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/tool-access.md)
+
+### `donkey.run()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.run(
+    id: str | None = None,
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    typed_refusals: bool = True,
+) -> RunScope
+```
+
+Group one logical agent run under a shared correlation id.
+
+### `donkey.run_context()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.run_context(run_id: str | None = None) -> RunScope
+```
+
+Deprecated alias for `run`: use `donkey.run(id=…)`. Emits a `DeprecationWarning`.
+
+### `donkey.cache()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.cache(
+    *,
+    skip: bool | None = None,
+    no_store: bool | None = None,
+    ttl: int | None = None,
+    threshold: float | None = None,
+    principal_id: str | None = None,
+) -> CacheScope
+```
+
+Steer the gateway's **semantic cache** for every governed model call in the block.
+
+### `donkey.governed()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.governed(
+    func: Callable[P, R] | None = None,
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    typed_refusals: bool = True,
+) -> Callable[P, R] | Callable[[Callable[P, R]], Callable[P, R]]
+```
+
+Wrap a callable so its body runs inside a `donkey.run()` scope.
+
+### `donkey.tool()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.tool(func: Callable) -> Callable
+```
+
+Mark a callable as a governed tool **without changing call behaviour**, recording its name, signature and docstring in an introspectable registry.
+
+### `donkey.simulate()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.simulate(
+    error: type[DonkeyError],
+    *,
+    times: int = 1,
+) -> AbstractContextManager[None]
+```
+
+Inject a real gateway refusal in-process, no server.
+
+### `donkey.aclose()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.aclose() -> None
+```
+
+Close every transport this Donkey owns: the data-plane and control-plane clients, the connected-app token-fetch client it built (a caller-supplied `auth` provider stays caller-owned), and the blocking client. Each one is closed even if an earlier close raises.
+
+### `donkey.close()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.close() -> None
+```
+
+Close the blocking transport.
+
+## `DonkeyConfig`
+
+Everything the SDK needs to reach Agent Fabric, resolved once and immutable.
+
+Its fields are listed in [Configuration](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#all-settings).
+
+### `DonkeyConfig.resolve()`
+
+```python nocheck
+DonkeyConfig.resolve(
+    *,
+    path: str | os.PathLike[str] | None = None,
+    **overrides: Unpack[ConfigOverrides],
+) -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Resolve every field along the configured precedence.
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration#precedence`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#precedence)
+
+### `DonkeyConfig.from_env()`
+
+```python nocheck
+DonkeyConfig.from_env() -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Build from env + the optional config files: `resolve` with no arguments (see the module docstring). Does not validate; call `validated` when you know which capability you need.
+
+### `config.control_plane_url`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.control_plane_url: str
+```
+
+The Anypoint control-plane base URL — explicit override or region.
+
+### `config.source_of()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.source_of(name: str) -> ConfigSource
+```
+
+Where field `name` was resolved from. `explicit` (set in code) when `resolve` did not resolve it or its value has changed since, e.g. through `dataclasses.replace`, `with_overrides` or direct construction; copies that keep the value keep the label, and so does `DonkeyConfig(**dataclasses.asdict(cfg))` in the same process. A label recorded in another process can't be checked against the value: an endpoint keeps it and a credential counts as set in code.
+
+### `config.with_overrides()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.with_overrides(**kw: Unpack[ConfigOverrides]) -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Return a copy with the given fields replaced.
+
+### `config.validated()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.validated(*, need: Capability = 'control_plane') -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Return self if valid for the requested capability, else raise a `ConfigError` listing EVERY missing field at once.
+
+### `config.missing_fields()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.missing_fields(*, need: Capability) -> list[str]
+```
+
+Every required field for `need` that is unset, each with the env var that sets it. The list `validated` reports.
+
+### `config.check_endpoints()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.check_endpoints(*, need: Capability, code_credential: str | None = None) -> None
+```
+
+Raise `ConfigError` if `need`'s endpoint may not receive the credentials that would be sent to it.
+
+## `LLMClient` (`donkey.llm`)
+
+The framework-free proxy client factory.
+
+### `donkey.llm.close()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.close() -> None
+```
+
+Close the blocking client built by this standalone factory, if any.
+
+### `donkey.llm.aclose()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.llm.aclose() -> None
+```
+
+Close this factory's owned blocking client in an async scope.
+
+### `donkey.llm.client()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.client(*, sync: bool = False, **kw: Any) -> AsyncOpenAI | OpenAI
+```
+
+An OpenAI client pointed at the LLM proxy, using our shared http client so headers + retries apply.
+
+### `donkey.llm.list_models()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.llm.list_models(*, live: bool = False) -> list[ModelHandle]
+```
+
+List logical models the proxy exposes.
+
+### `donkey.llm.resolve()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.resolve(model_id: str, *, provider: str | None = None) -> ModelHandle
+```
+
+A heuristic `ModelHandle` for a known model id.
+
+## `Budget` (`donkey.budget`)
+
+The token-budget window for one `Donkey`, updated in-band from each response's budget headers (numeric `x-token-*` or the prose `x-llm-proxy-ratelimit` fallback). Its request-count sibling is `requests`.
+
+### `donkey.budget.observe()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget.observe(response: httpx.Response, *, now: datetime | None = None) -> None
+```
+
+Update from a response's budget headers.
+
+### `donkey.budget.pace()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget.pace(
+    *,
+    reserve: float = 0.0,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> AbstractAsyncContextManager[None]
+```
+
+Guard a request so it is refused *before* it crosses your reserve, not after a 429 comes back.
+
+### `donkey.budget.wait_for_reset()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.budget.wait_for_reset(
+    *,
+    window: str | None = None,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> None
+```
+
+Sleep until the tripped window's `reset_at`, then return — the recovery half of pacing.
+
+## `LastCall` (`donkey.last_call`)
+
+What the gateway said about the most recent governed model call.
+
+Its fields are listed in [`last_call` fields](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/last-call.md).
+
+### `donkey.last_call.observed`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.observed: bool
+```
+
+True iff a governed response actually populated this record.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.substituted`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.substituted: bool
+```
+
+True iff the gateway served a *different* model than the one requested — a silent model substitution the developer's cost model, token assumptions and evaluation are otherwise blind to. Requires both the requested and served model to be known; a missing either side is not a substitution claim. A `provider/` prefix naming `served_provider` is not a difference — see `is_substitution`.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.cache_hit`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.cache_hit: bool
+```
+
+True iff the gateway served this call from its semantic cache (`cache_status` == `"hit"`) — a verbatim replay with no provider round-trip. The zero-spend read a cost rollup uses to exclude a hit's replayed `usage` from fresh spend. `False` for every other status and for an unobserved / non-cached response.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.available`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.available: bool
+```
+
+False only when the current surface structurally cannot be observed (the framework owns the transport, or the adapter gets only `default_headers`); a plain cold read is still `available` — it just has not observed anything yet.
+
+### `LastCall.from_response()`
+
+```python nocheck
+LastCall.from_response(
+    response: httpx.Response,
+    *,
+    requested_model: str | None = None,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> LastCall
+```
+
+Build an `OBSERVED` record from a governed response's headers.
+
+## Framework adapters
+
+`donkey.<attribute>` imports the adapter on first use. If its framework is
+not installed, the access raises `ImportError` with the `pip install` line.
+See [Frameworks](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/frameworks.md) for what each factory returns.
+
+| Attribute | Install | Factories |
+|---|---|---|
+| `donkey.langgraph` | `pip install "donkey-kit[langgraph]"` | `chat_model()` |
+| `donkey.adk` | `pip install "donkey-kit[adk]"` | `model()`, `gemini()` |
+| `donkey.strands` | `pip install "donkey-kit[strands]"` | `model()` |
+| `donkey.agent_framework` | `pip install "donkey-kit[agent_framework]"` | `chat_client()` |
+| `donkey.openai_agents` | `pip install "donkey-kit[openai-agents]"` | `model()` |

+| `donkey.llamaindex` | `pip install "donkey-kit[llamaindex]"` | `llm()` |
+
+## Exceptions
+
+Every typed refusal and SDK error. See [Typed refusals](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/errors.md) for when each
+is raised.
+
+| Exception | Base | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `AgentKilled` | `PolicyViolation` | The gateway's Agent Kill Switch blocked this agent — it is quarantined in Governance > Security, or listed in the policy's *Killed Agent IDs*. |
+| `AuthError` | `DonkeyError` | Rejected credentials on the Anypoint control plane or LLM-proxy data plane. |
+| `BudgetReserveReached` | `DonkeyError` | Raised by `Budget.pace` *before* it lets a request through that would cross the caller's reserve. |
+| `ConfigError` | `DonkeyError` | Configuration is missing or invalid, or an endpoint may not receive the credentials that would be sent to it (see `DonkeyConfig.check_endpoints`). Raised locally before any request; reports ALL missing fields at once. The transport also raises it, with its own remediation, for a send on a closed client or from a closed event loop. |
+| `ContentSafetyBlocked` | `PolicyViolation` | A provider-backed content-moderation policy (Azure Content Safety or Amazon Bedrock Guardrails) blocked the request or response. |
+| `DonkeyError` | `Exception` | Base for all SDK errors. Carries correlation/call/request IDs and the raw response so callers can inspect what actually happened. |
+| `GatewayUnavailable` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway could not be reached at all — a transport-level failure (DNS, refused connection, TLS error, timeout) with NO HTTP response behind it. |
+| `ModelNotRoutable` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway could not pick a provider for the requested model, so it rejected the request before any upstream call. |

+| `Budget` | class | The token-budget window for one `Donkey`, updated in-band from each response's budget headers (numeric `x-token-*` or the prose `x-llm-proxy-ratelimit` fallback). Its request-count sibling is `requests`. |
+| `CacheControls` | class | The per-request semantic-cache steering controls. |
+| `CacheScope` | class | A **dual sync/async** context manager that applies `CacheControls` to the governed calls made in its block. |
+| `ConfigOverrides` | class | The public `DonkeyConfig` fields, each optional, as keyword arguments: what `DonkeyConfig.resolve`, `DonkeyConfig.with_overrides` and `Donkey.from_env` accept, so a misspelt field fails type checking. |
+| `CostTags` | class | The fixed four-dimension cost-attribution set. |
+| `Donkey` | class | The SDK entry point: one governed handle on Agent Fabric. |
+| `DonkeyAsyncClientView` | class | A non-owning `httpx.AsyncClient` over a shared `DonkeyAsyncClient`. |
+| `DonkeyClientView` | class | The blocking twin of `DonkeyAsyncClientView`, over a shared `DonkeyClient`. Get one from `DonkeyClient.view`. |
+| `DonkeyConfig` | class | Everything the SDK needs to reach Agent Fabric, resolved once and immutable. |
+| `ExchangeRegistry` | class | The Exchange client behind `donkey.registry`: search, resolve and explain assets. |
+| `LLMClient` | class | The framework-free proxy client factory. |
+| `LastCall` | class | What the gateway said about the most recent governed model call. |
+| `LastCallStatus` | class | Why `LastCall` fields are (or are not) populated — so a `None` is never ambiguous between "the gateway said nothing" and "the SDK never saw the response". `str`-valued so it prints and logs cleanly. |
+| `Region` | type alias | One of `us`, `eu`, `ca`, `jp`. |
+| `RequestWindow` | class | The gateway's request-count window, `donkey.budget.requests`. |
+| `RunScope` | class | A **dual sync/async** context manager that sets the run correlation id for the governed calls made in its block. |
+| `ToolSpec` | class | An introspectable record of a `@donkey.tool`-marked callable. |
+| `ToolsFacade` | class | `donkey.tools` — discovery + lock. |
+| `TypedRefusals` | class | Re-raise a refusal from the block as its typed `DonkeyError`. |
+| `classify` | function | Map an HTTP error response to a specific exception. |
+| `registered_tools` | function | Every callable marked with `@donkey.tool` in this process, in decoration order. The introspection entry point for the scanner / card generator. |

+# Python API reference
+
+Status: Live. Shipped, and verified against a real governed gateway.
+
+The public API of `donkey-kit`, generated from its
+signatures and docstrings. Each entry shows the first paragraph of the
+docstring; `help()` on the object prints the rest. Everything listed here is
+importable from `donkey_kit`.
+
+## `Donkey`
+
+The SDK entry point: one governed handle on Agent Fabric.
+
+Each framework adapter is an attribute too, listed under
+[Framework adapters](#framework-adapters).
+
+```python nocheck
+Donkey(
+    config: DonkeyConfig | None = None,
+    *,
+    auth: AuthProvider | None = None,
+    llm_auth: AuthProvider | None = None,
+) -> None
+```
+
+### `Donkey.from_env()`
+
+```python nocheck
+Donkey.from_env(
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    path: str | os.PathLike[str] | None = None,
+    **overrides: Unpack[ConfigOverrides],
+) -> Donkey
+```
+
+Build from the environment and the config files, with any `DonkeyConfig` field set in code on top.
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration#precedence`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#precedence)
+
+### `donkey.config`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.config: DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+The resolved configuration this Donkey was built with (read-only).
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md)
+
+### `donkey.llm`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm: LLMClient
+```
+
+The governed model-call surface: native OpenAI-compatible clients and per-framework connection kwargs pointed at the proxy.
+
+Guide: [`/quickstart`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/quickstart.md)
+
+### `donkey.budget`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget: Budget
+```
+
+The token-budget window for this Donkey, updated in-band from every response's `x-token-*` headers. Unobserved (all fields `None`) until the first call returns; there is no budget-query endpoint, so it is only as fresh as `budget.observed_at`.
+
+### `donkey.last_call`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call: LastCall
+```
+
+The gateway's own metadata about the most recent governed model call in this context — its `request_id`, `api_instance_id` and `environment_id`; what the gateway *did* with the request — `served_provider` / `served_model` / `routing_type` and the `fallback` flag, with `substituted` true when the served model differs from `requested_model`; and the per-call usage token counts (`input_tokens` / `output_tokens` / `total_tokens` and the cost-relevant `cached_tokens` / `cache_write_tokens` / `reasoning_tokens`). The success-path counterpart to the ids `DonkeyError` hands you on a refusal.
+
+### `donkey.openai()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.openai(*, sync: bool = False, **kw: Any) -> AsyncOpenAI | OpenAI
+```
+
+The headline two-line ergonomic: a native OpenAI client pointed at the governed proxy, with nothing new to learn.
+
+### `donkey.http_client()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.http_client(*, sync: bool = False) -> DonkeyAsyncClientView | DonkeyClientView
+```
+
+The governed data-plane `httpx` client, for a framework or SDK that takes one (`http_client=`, `async_http_client=`, a pre-built `AsyncOpenAI`). Requests sent through it get the same headers, retries, span, budget and `donkey.last_call` as every adapter.
+
+### `donkey.registry`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.registry: ExchangeRegistry
+```
+
+The Exchange registry client used for tool discovery and resolution.
+
+Guide: [`/tool-access/discovery`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/tool-access/discovery.md)
+
+### `donkey.tools`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.tools: ToolsFacade
+```
+
+Governed tool discovery and the `donkey.lock` lockfile.
+
+Guide: [`/tool-access`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/tool-access.md)
+
+### `donkey.run()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.run(
+    id: str | None = None,
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    typed_refusals: bool = True,
+) -> RunScope
+```
+
+Group one logical agent run under a shared correlation id.
+
+### `donkey.run_context()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.run_context(run_id: str | None = None) -> RunScope
+```
+
+Deprecated alias for `run`: use `donkey.run(id=…)`. Emits a `DeprecationWarning`.
+
+### `donkey.cache()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.cache(
+    *,
+    skip: bool | None = None,
+    no_store: bool | None = None,
+    ttl: int | None = None,
+    threshold: float | None = None,
+    principal_id: str | None = None,
+) -> CacheScope
+```
+
+Steer the gateway's **semantic cache** for every governed model call in the block.
+
+### `donkey.governed()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.governed(
+    func: Callable[P, R] | None = None,
+    *,
+    team: str | None = None,
+    project: str | None = None,
+    env: str | None = None,
+    enduser_id: str | None = None,
+    typed_refusals: bool = True,
+) -> Callable[P, R] | Callable[[Callable[P, R]], Callable[P, R]]
+```
+
+Wrap a callable so its body runs inside a `donkey.run()` scope.
+
+### `donkey.tool()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.tool(func: Callable) -> Callable
+```
+
+Mark a callable as a governed tool **without changing call behaviour**, recording its name, signature and docstring in an introspectable registry.
+
+### `donkey.simulate()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.simulate(
+    error: type[DonkeyError],
+    *,
+    times: int = 1,
+) -> AbstractContextManager[None]
+```
+
+Inject a real gateway refusal in-process, no server.
+
+### `donkey.aclose()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.aclose() -> None
+```
+
+Close every transport this Donkey owns: the data-plane and control-plane clients, the connected-app token-fetch client it built (a caller-supplied `auth` provider stays caller-owned), and the blocking client. Each one is closed even if an earlier close raises.
+
+### `donkey.close()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.close() -> None
+```
+
+Close the blocking transport.
+
+## `DonkeyConfig`
+
+Everything the SDK needs to reach Agent Fabric, resolved once and immutable.
+
+Its fields are listed in [Configuration](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#all-settings).
+
+### `DonkeyConfig.resolve()`
+
+```python nocheck
+DonkeyConfig.resolve(
+    *,
+    path: str | os.PathLike[str] | None = None,
+    **overrides: Unpack[ConfigOverrides],
+) -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Resolve every field along the configured precedence.
+
+Guide: [`/reference/configuration#precedence`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#precedence)
+
+### `DonkeyConfig.from_env()`
+
+```python nocheck
+DonkeyConfig.from_env() -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Build from env + the optional config files: `resolve` with no arguments (see the module docstring). Does not validate; call `validated` when you know which capability you need.
+
+### `config.control_plane_url`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.control_plane_url: str
+```
+
+The Anypoint control-plane base URL — explicit override or region.
+
+### `config.source_of()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.source_of(name: str) -> ConfigSource
+```
+
+Where field `name` was resolved from. `explicit` (set in code) when `resolve` did not resolve it or its value has changed since, e.g. through `dataclasses.replace`, `with_overrides` or direct construction; copies that keep the value keep the label, and so does `DonkeyConfig(**dataclasses.asdict(cfg))` in the same process. A label recorded in another process can't be checked against the value: an endpoint keeps it and a credential counts as set in code.
+
+### `config.with_overrides()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.with_overrides(**kw: Unpack[ConfigOverrides]) -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Return a copy with the given fields replaced.
+
+### `config.validated()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.validated(*, need: Capability = 'control_plane') -> DonkeyConfig
+```
+
+Return self if valid for the requested capability, else raise a `ConfigError` listing EVERY missing field at once.
+
+### `config.missing_fields()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.missing_fields(*, need: Capability) -> list[str]
+```
+
+Every required field for `need` that is unset, each with the env var that sets it. The list `validated` reports.
+
+### `config.check_endpoints()`
+
+```python nocheck
+config.check_endpoints(*, need: Capability, code_credential: str | None = None) -> None
+```
+
+Raise `ConfigError` if `need`'s endpoint may not receive the credentials that would be sent to it.
+
+## `LLMClient` (`donkey.llm`)
+
+The framework-free proxy client factory.
+
+### `donkey.llm.close()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.close() -> None
+```
+
+Close the blocking client built by this standalone factory, if any.
+
+### `donkey.llm.aclose()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.llm.aclose() -> None
+```
+
+Close this factory's owned blocking client in an async scope.
+
+### `donkey.llm.client()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.client(*, sync: bool = False, **kw: Any) -> AsyncOpenAI | OpenAI
+```
+
+An OpenAI client pointed at the LLM proxy, using our shared http client so headers + retries apply.
+
+### `donkey.llm.list_models()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.llm.list_models(*, live: bool = False) -> list[ModelHandle]
+```
+
+List logical models the proxy exposes.
+
+### `donkey.llm.resolve()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.llm.resolve(model_id: str, *, provider: str | None = None) -> ModelHandle
+```
+
+A heuristic `ModelHandle` for a known model id.
+
+## `Budget` (`donkey.budget`)
+
+The token-budget window for one `Donkey`, updated in-band from each response's budget headers (numeric `x-token-*` or the prose `x-llm-proxy-ratelimit` fallback). Its request-count sibling is `requests`.
+
+### `donkey.budget.observe()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget.observe(response: httpx.Response, *, now: datetime | None = None) -> None
+```
+
+Update from a response's budget headers.
+
+### `donkey.budget.pace()`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.budget.pace(
+    *,
+    reserve: float = 0.0,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> AbstractAsyncContextManager[None]
+```
+
+Guard a request so it is refused *before* it crosses your reserve, not after a 429 comes back.
+
+### `donkey.budget.wait_for_reset()`
+
+```python nocheck
+async donkey.budget.wait_for_reset(
+    *,
+    window: str | None = None,
+    now: datetime | None = None,
+) -> None
+```
+
+Sleep until the tripped window's `reset_at`, then return — the recovery half of pacing.
+
+## `LastCall` (`donkey.last_call`)
+
+What the gateway said about the most recent governed model call.
+
+Its fields are listed in [`last_call` fields](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/last-call.md).
+
+### `donkey.last_call.observed`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.observed: bool
+```
+
+True iff a governed response actually populated this record.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.substituted`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.substituted: bool
+```
+
+True iff the gateway served a *different* model than the one requested — a silent model substitution the developer's cost model, token assumptions and evaluation are otherwise blind to. Requires both the requested and served model to be known; a missing either side is not a substitution claim. A `provider/` prefix naming `served_provider` is not a difference — see `is_substitution`.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.cache_hit`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.cache_hit: bool
+```
+
+True iff the gateway served this call from its semantic cache (`cache_status` == `"hit"`) — a verbatim replay with no provider round-trip. The zero-spend read a cost rollup uses to exclude a hit's replayed `usage` from fresh spend. `False` for every other status and for an unobserved / non-cached response.
+
+### `donkey.last_call.available`
+
+```python nocheck
+donkey.last_call.available: bool

+`donkey.<attribute>` imports the adapter on first use. If its framework is
+not installed, the access raises `ImportError` with the `pip install` line.

+
+## Exceptions
+
+Every typed refusal and SDK error. See [Typed refusals](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/errors.md) for when each
+is raised.
+
+| Exception | Base | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `AgentKilled` | `PolicyViolation` | The gateway's Agent Kill Switch blocked this agent — it is quarantined in Governance > Security, or listed in the policy's *Killed Agent IDs*. |
+| `AuthError` | `DonkeyError` | Rejected credentials on the Anypoint control plane or LLM-proxy data plane. |
+| `BudgetReserveReached` | `DonkeyError` | Raised by `Budget.pace` *before* it lets a request through that would cross the caller's reserve. |
+| `ConfigError` | `DonkeyError` | Configuration is missing or invalid, or an endpoint may not receive the credentials that would be sent to it (see `DonkeyConfig.check_endpoints`). Raised locally before any request; reports ALL missing fields at once. The transport also raises it, with its own remediation, for a send on a closed client or from a closed event loop. |
+| `ContentSafetyBlocked` | `PolicyViolation` | A provider-backed content-moderation policy (Azure Content Safety or Amazon Bedrock Guardrails) blocked the request or response. |
+| `DonkeyError` | `Exception` | Base for all SDK errors. Carries correlation/call/request IDs and the raw response so callers can inspect what actually happened. |
+| `GatewayUnavailable` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway could not be reached at all — a transport-level failure (DNS, refused connection, TLS error, timeout) with NO HTTP response behind it. |
+| `ModelNotRoutable` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway could not pick a provider for the requested model, so it rejected the request before any upstream call. |
+| `ModelSubstituted` | `DonkeyError` | The gateway served a *different* model than the one requested — a routing fallback substituted the model, and `on_model_substitution="raise"` opted the caller into treating that as an error. |
+| `PIIDetected` | `PolicyViolation` | The PII-detection policy blocked the request or response. |
+| `PolicyViolation` | `DonkeyError` | Base for gateway-enforced refusals. NEVER retried. |
+| `PromptInjectionBlocked` | `PolicyViolation` | The prompt-injection-protection policy flagged the request as an injection attempt. |
+| `RequestRateLimitExceeded` | `PolicyViolation` | A request-rate-limit policy refused the request: the window's request count is spent. |
+| `TokenBudgetExceeded` | `PolicyViolation` | A token-rate-limit policy refused the request: the budget window is spent. |
+| `UpstreamModelError` | `DonkeyError` | Provider-side failure (5xx). Retryable. |
+| `UpstreamRequestError` | `DonkeyError` | The upstream provider rejected the request (4xx), passed through the gateway verbatim (e.g. OpenAI `model_not_found`). This is a client-side mistake, NOT a gateway policy refusal and NOT a provider outage, so it is terminal (never retried) but distinct from `PolicyViolation`. |

+| `Budget` | class | The token-budget window for one `Donkey`, updated in-band from each response's budget headers (numeric `x-token-*` or the prose `x-llm-proxy-ratelimit` fallback). Its request-count sibling is `requests`. |

+| `CostTags` | class | The fixed four-dimension cost-attribution set. |
+| `Donkey` | class | The SDK entry point: one governed handle on Agent Fabric. |
+| `DonkeyAsyncClientView` | class | A non-owning `httpx.AsyncClient` over a shared `DonkeyAsyncClient`. |
+| `DonkeyClientView` | class | The blocking twin of `DonkeyAsyncClientView`, over a shared `DonkeyClient`. Get one from `DonkeyClient.view`. |
+| `DonkeyConfig` | class | Everything the SDK needs to reach Agent Fabric, resolved once and immutable. |
+| `ExchangeRegistry` | class | The Exchange client behind `donkey.registry`: search, resolve and explain assets. |
+| `LLMClient` | class | The framework-free proxy client factory. |
+| `LastCall` | class | What the gateway said about the most recent governed model call. |
+| `LastCallStatus` | class | Why `LastCall` fields are (or are not) populated — so a `None` is never ambiguous between "the gateway said nothing" and "the SDK never saw the response". `str`-valued so it prints and logs cleanly. |
+| `Region` | type alias | One of `us`, `eu`, `ca`, `jp`. |
+| `RequestWindow` | class | The gateway's request-count window, `donkey.budget.requests`. |
+| `RunScope` | class | A **dual sync/async** context manager that sets the run correlation id for the governed calls made in its block. |
+| `ToolSpec` | class | An introspectable record of a `@donkey.tool`-marked callable. |
+| `ToolsFacade` | class | `donkey.tools` — discovery + lock. |
+| `TypedRefusals` | class | Re-raise a refusal from the block as its typed `DonkeyError`. |
+| `classify` | function | Map an HTTP error response to a specific exception. |
+| `registered_tools` | function | Every callable marked with `@donkey.tool` in this process, in decoration order. The introspection entry point for the scanner / card generator. |
+| `typed_refusals` | function | Re-raise a governance refusal from the block as its typed `DonkeyError`. |

+# Release notes
+
+The release notes for every `donkey-kit` version are its
+[GitHub Release](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases).
+There is no separate changelog file, so the Release is the one place to read
+what changed. The **Changelog** link on
+[PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/donkey-kit/) points at the same page.
+
+Each Release covers:
+
+- **Breaking changes.** Every Release has this section. It lists each break
+  with its migration, or says `None.`.
+- **Verification-status changes**, for example an adapter that moved from
+  signature-confirmed to live-verified.
+- **Extras changes**, such as a new framework floor.
+- The pull requests in the release, grouped as features, fixes, docs and
+  maintenance.
+
+To read the notes for one version, open
+`https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases/tag/v<version>`,
+for example
+[`v0.1.3`](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/releases/tag/v0.1.3).
+
+## Which version you have
+
+```bash
+python -c "import donkey_kit; print(donkey_kit.__version__)"
+pip index versions donkey-kit      # the versions published on PyPI
+```
+
+The banner at the top of each page shows which version these docs describe.
+When it differs from the latest release on PyPI, the banner shows both. The
+site is built from the released branch, so it describes the latest release

+# Troubleshooting
+
+Status: Live. Shipped, and verified against a real governed gateway.
+
+Start with `donkey doctor`. It makes one real governed call and tells apart the
+failures that look the same from your code. The sections below explain each
+line it prints, then cover the problems `doctor` can't see.
+
+```bash
+pip install "donkey-kit[cli]"
+donkey doctor                  # or: donkey doctor --model <model-id> --json
+```
+
+## Reading `donkey doctor`
+
+Each line starts with a level. Only `[!!]` makes `doctor` exit non-zero, so you
+can run it as a CI preflight.
+
+| Glyph | Level | Means |
+|---|---|---|
+| `[ok]` | ok | The check passed. |
+| `[!!]` | fail | The check failed. The next line is the `remediation` text from the typed exception for that failure. |
+| `[i] ` | info | Context, such as where an endpoint came from or the budget reading. |
+| `[--]` | skip | Not checked, because an earlier check failed. |
+
+The lines, in the order they appear:
+
+| Line | Fails when | What to do |
+|---|---|---|
+| `config` | A required LLM-proxy field is missing, or the proxy URL may not receive the configured credentials. | The remediation lists every missing field and the env var for each. For the credentials case, see [Which credentials a URL receives](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#which-credentials-a-url-receives). |
+| `llm endpoint`, `control plane` | Never (info). | Check the host and its source: `env`, `project file`, `local overlay`, `user file` or `default`. A value from an unexpected source usually means a stale config file. |
+| `plain http` | Never (info). Shown only when `DONKEY_ALLOW_HTTP` is on. | Turn it off outside local testing. See [Endpoints must use `https://`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#endpoints-must-use-https). |
+| `gateway` | No HTTP response at all (DNS, refused connection, TLS, timeout), or an empty `404` with no proxy on the base path. | See [Wrong URL or no proxy](#wrong-url-or-no-proxy). |
+| `credentials` | The gateway answered `401`, or `403` with `www-authenticate`. | See [`401` and `403`](#401-and-403). |
+| `model` | The provider rejected the model (the `model_not_found` pass-through). | Request the model from your platform team, or pass another one with `--model`. |
+| `responses`, `chat completions` | The route's upstream does not serve `/responses` (an Azure OpenAI route). The run still exits `0` if `/chat/completions` answers. | Call the route with `client.chat.completions.create(...)`. |
+| `policy` | Never (info). A policy refused the probe itself, such as a spent budget. | Read the typed refusal. See [Typed refusals](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/errors.md). |
+| `budget` | Never (info). | The reading is only as fresh as the last response, because the proxy has no budget-query endpoint. `observed … ago` says how old it is. |
+
+The [CLI page](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/cli.md#donkey-doctor) has sample output for a healthy proxy and
+for an Azure OpenAI route.
+
+## Failures that look alike
+
+### Wrong URL or no proxy
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `GatewayUnavailable` and `doctor` prints `gateway  unreachable` | DNS, a refused connection, TLS or a timeout. No HTTP response came back. | Check the host in `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL`, your network egress and any proxy between you and the gateway. |
+| An empty `404`, and `doctor` prints `no proxy on this base path` | The gateway answered, but nothing is deployed at that path. Credentials and model were not checked. | Check the path for a typo, remove a trailing `/v1` (the governed proxy has no `/v1` segment), and confirm the proxy is Active in API Manager. |
+| A `404` that carries `x-llm-proxy-*` headers | The proxy routed the model, but the upstream does not serve the API you called. | Use the API the upstream serves. On an Azure OpenAI route, use Chat Completions. |
+
+`DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_URL` is the proxy base with a trailing slash:
+`https://<ingress-gw>/<instance>/`. See
+[Governed model access](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#governed-model-access).
+
+### `401` and `403`
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `401` with `www-authenticate: Client-ID-Enforcement` | The gateway rejected the `client_id` / `client_secret` pair. | Check `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_ID` and `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_CLIENT_SECRET`, and ask your platform team to confirm that this app has access to the proxy. |
+| `401` in `jwt` mode | The gateway rejected the JWT, even after one refresh. | See [A `401` in JWT mode](#a-401-in-jwt-mode). |
+| `403` with a nested `type: "pii_detected"` | A PII policy blocked the content. This is `PIIDetected`, not an auth failure. | Redact the values listed in `.entities`. |
+| `403` with a nested `code: "agent_killed"` | The agent is quarantined. This is `AgentKilled`. | Ask an administrator to restore it. |
+| `403` with an `x-llm-proxy-<vendor>-…-action: reject` header | A content-safety policy blocked the content. This is `ContentSafetyBlocked`. | Revise the content listed in `.categories`. |
+
+The SDK reads the body and headers to pick the exception, so catch the typed
+exception rather than matching on the status code. The full list is in
+[The rejection shapes `classify()` types](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/errors.md#the-rejection-shapes-classify-types).
+
+### `429`: budget or request rate
+
+Both are `429`, and neither is retried by the SDK.
+
+| Symptom | Exception | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| Empty body with `x-token-limit`, `x-token-remaining` and `x-token-reset` headers | `TokenBudgetExceeded` | Wait for `.retry_after`, or pace calls with [`donkey.budget.pace()`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/budget.md). |
+| Body `{"error":"Too Many Requests"}` with `x-ratelimit-*` headers and no `x-token-*` headers | `RequestRateLimitExceeded` | Wait for `.retry_after`, or send fewer requests per window. |
+
+CrewAI retries any `429` three times inside its own code. See the
+[CrewAI page](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/frameworks/crewai.md#notes).
+
+### `5xx`
+
+`UpstreamModelError` is a provider failure. The SDK retries a `503`, and
+retries a `502` or `504` on a model call only with
+[`retry_model_calls_on_gateway_errors`](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#behaviour).
+If it persists, the provider is down: retry later or fall back.
+
+## `donkey.last_call` says `UNAVAILABLE`
+
+`UNAVAILABLE` means the SDK can't see this call's response, so the gateway's
+metadata can't be read. It does not mean the call failed.
+
+`donkey.last_call` is filled in from the response as it passes through the
+SDK's shared HTTP client. CrewAI builds its own client, so its calls never pass
+through. On a `Donkey` whose only resolved adapter is CrewAI, `last_call`
+reports `UNAVAILABLE`, and `surface` names the adapter.
+
+| `status` | Means | What to do |
+|---|---|---|
+| `OBSERVED` | A governed response filled in the record. | Nothing. |
+| `UNOBSERVED` | No governed call has returned in this context yet. | Read it after the call, in the same task or `donkey.run()` block. |
+| `UNAVAILABLE` | The adapter named in `surface` sends outside the SDK. | Use an adapter whose `capabilities().observes_last_call` is `True` (see [the table](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/frameworks.md#what-each-factory-gets-capabilities)), or read the gateway's own logs. |
+
+See [`last_call` fields](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/last-call.md) and
+[When `last_call` is unavailable](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/telemetry.md#when-last_call-is-unavailable).
+
+## A `401` in JWT mode
+
+In `jwt` mode the SDK gets the token from the `llm_auth` provider you pass to
+`Donkey(llm_auth=…)`. On a `401` from a model call, the async client calls
+`invalidate()` on that provider, sends the request once more with the new
+token, and raises `AuthError` if that fails too.
+
+Work through these in order:
+
+1. **No provider.** Without `llm_auth`, every adapter's `connection_kwargs()`
+   raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode. Pass a provider.
+2. **A blocking call.** The blocking client (`sync=True`, or a framework's
+   `invoke()` / `complete()`) raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode, because the
+   token is async-only. Use the async API.
+3. **The token never changes.** `StaticToken` does not refresh, so the retry
+   sends the same expired token. Use a provider that fetches a new token when
+   `invalidate()` is called.
+4. **The wallet client ID.** `DONKEY_LLM_PROXY_WALLET_CLIENT_ID` is sent as
+   `X-Client-Id` and selects the wallet. It is required in `jwt` mode and is
+   not the IdP's client ID.
+5. **CrewAI.** CrewAI builds its own client, so the JWT never reaches its
+   requests and `donkey.crewai` raises `ConfigError` in `jwt` mode. Use
+   client-id auth with CrewAI.
+
+See [JWT / model-wallet auth mode](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#jwt--model-wallet-auth-mode)
+and [Auth providers](https://docs.donkey-kit.dev/reference/configuration.md#auth-providers).
+
+  Still stuck? Run `donkey --json doctor`, remove any secrets from the output,
+  and include it in an issue on
+  [GitHub](https://github.com/Donkey-Development-Kit/donkey-development-kit/issues).
