"""Shared auxiliary client router for side tasks.

Provides a single resolution chain so every consumer (context compression,
session search, web extraction, vision analysis, browser vision) picks up
the best available backend without duplicating fallback logic.

Resolution order for text tasks (auto mode):
  1. User's main provider + main model (used regardless of provider type —
     aggregators, direct API-key providers, native Anthropic, Codex, etc.)
  2. OpenRouter  (OPENROUTER_API_KEY)
  3. Nous Portal (~/.hermes/auth.json active provider)
  4. Custom endpoint (config.yaml model.base_url + OPENAI_API_KEY)
  5. Native Anthropic
  6. Direct API-key providers (z.ai/GLM, Kimi/Moonshot, MiniMax, MiniMax-CN)
  7. None

Resolution order for vision/multimodal tasks (auto mode):
  1. Selected main provider, if it is one of the supported vision backends below
  2. OpenRouter
  3. Nous Portal
  4. Native Anthropic
  5. Custom endpoint (for local vision models: Qwen-VL, LLaVA, Pixtral, etc.)
  6. None

Codex OAuth (ChatGPT-account auth) is intentionally NOT in either
fallback chain: OpenAI gates this endpoint behind an undocumented,
shifting model allow-list, so "just try Codex with a hardcoded model"
rots on its own.  Codex is used only when the user's main provider *is*
openai-codex (Step 1 above) or when a caller explicitly requests it with
a model (auxiliary.<task>.provider + auxiliary.<task>.model).

Per-task overrides are configured in config.yaml under the ``auxiliary:`` section
(e.g. ``auxiliary.vision.provider``, ``auxiliary.compression.model``).
Default "auto" follows the chains above.

Payment / credit exhaustion fallback:
  When a resolved provider returns HTTP 402 or a credit-related error,
  call_llm() automatically retries with the next available provider in the
  auto-detection chain.  This handles the common case where a user depletes
  their OpenRouter balance but has Codex OAuth or another provider available.

               auxiliary model.

        raw_codex: If True, return a raw OpenAI client for Codex providers

            the caller needs direct access to responses.stream() (e.g.,
            the main agent loop).
        explicit_base_url: Optional direct OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
        explicit_api_key: Optional API key paired with explicit_base_url.
        api_mode: API mode override.  One of "chat_completions",
            "codex_responses", or None (auto-detect).  When set to

    The OpenAI SDK's ``AsyncHttpxClientWrapper.__del__`` schedules
    ``self.aclose()`` via ``asyncio.get_running_loop().create_task()``.
    When an ``AsyncOpenAI`` client is garbage-collected while
    prompt_toolkit's event loop is running (the common CLI idle state),
    the ``aclose()`` task runs on prompt_toolkit's loop but the
    underlying TCP transport is bound to a *different* loop (the worker
    thread's loop that the client was originally created on).  If that
    loop is closed or its thread is dead, the transport's
    ``self._loop.call_soon()`` raises ``RuntimeError("Event loop is
    closed")``, which prompt_toolkit surfaces as "Unhandled exception
    in event loop ... Press ENTER to continue...".

    Neutering ``__del__`` is safe because:
    - Cached clients are explicitly cleaned via ``_force_close_async_httpx``
      on stale-loop detection and ``shutdown_cached_clients`` on exit.
    - Uncached clients' TCP connections are cleaned up by the OS when the
