Summary

Bundle L1 lands four combo/failover safety changes on dev as one reviewable unit, in this order.

  1. Declared-tool enforcement fails closed without a catalog ([security] declared-tool enforcement can fail open when catalog is absent #5690, security boundary). When a caller set enforceDeclaredToolNames: true but passed no declared-tool catalog, both Responses bridge shapes (src/bridge/sse.ts, src/bridge/response-json.ts) skipped the membership check and relayed the client tool call. They now refuse it with the existing undeclared client tool failure. A supplied catalog still enforces by default, an explicit false (Chat/Anthropic inbound) still leaves validation to the client, and an unscoped call with neither flag nor catalog keeps its previous behavior.
  2. A denied first combo target never dispatches ([bug] first combo target can dispatch after request send-budget reservation is denied #5688). When the shared request-send budget refused the first target's reservation, the combo still sent the request upstream. It now returns a typed local 429 request_send_budget_exhausted with zero upstream hits. A denied later hop returns the last real upstream failure without contacting the denied target.
  3. Combo Retry-After quarantine is bounded ([bug] combo Retry-After can quarantine a target effectively indefinitely #5686). A malformed or huge upstream Retry-After could cool a combo target for an effectively unbounded time. Explicit server delays are now capped at 24 hours (MAX_SERVER_DELAY_MS), while reset-derived, configured and fallback cooldowns keep their 10-minute ceiling. The combo guide in all eight locales and the configuration reference state the two ceilings.
  4. Explicit last-resort cooldown policy ([feature] explicit last-resort cooldown policy for failover combos #5691) and PUT field preservation ([bug] combo management PUT can drop reasoningEffortMode and imageInput #5687). A target can be marked lastResort, and cooldownWaitPolicy: "before-last-resort" makes selection wait out a short cooldown on a normal target (within waitForCooldownMs) instead of jumping straight to the emergency target. The policy only defers: when no normal target is reachable the last resort is dispatched as before. Separately, PUT /api/combos used to reset reasoningEffortMode and imageInput whenever a body omitted them, so every ocx combo set silently turned an adaptive combo back to strict. Omitted values are now kept from the stored combo, like cooldownMs, waitForCooldownMs, defaultEffortMode and the last-resort fields already were. Explicit values still replace them and invalid values are still rejected. Because the dashboard used omission to mean the default, its save payload (toPutBody in gui/src/combo-workspace-data.ts) now sends both fields explicitly, so switching back to auto/strict in the dashboard still takes effect. Storage stays sparse because the route drops defaults before persisting. No dashboard screen changes.

Security review

Item 1 changes a tool-authorization boundary: which upstream tool calls the proxy relays to a client that will execute them.

  • Boundary: bridgeToResponsesSSE and buildResponseJSON now refuse a client tool call when enforceDeclaredToolNames === true and declaredToolNames is absent. The predicate is (enforce === true || declared != null) && enforce !== false && !declared?.has(name), so it only removes the fail-open case and never widens what is relayed.
  • Production paths: adapter-delivery.ts and run-turn-execution.ts pass declaredToolNames from buildToolBridgeMaps, which is always a Set, so the live Responses path already enforced. The fix closes the helper-level fail-open for any caller that asks for enforcement without supplying a catalog.
  • Native passthrough needs no change: src/server/responses/passthrough-dispatch.ts never calls the bridge. Its guard (undeclaredToolGuardActive) is derived only from the catalog it captured (declared names, nameless client call types, or an explicit client tools key), and it has no enforce flag separate from that catalog, so the "enforcement requested, catalog missing" state cannot occur there.
  • Tests pinning it: tests/responses/responses-tool-conformance.test.ts covers absent, null, empty, mismatched and matching catalogs, the explicitly disabled scope and the unscoped null catalog, for both SSE and JSON, including the nested refusal message and wire error type/code. tests/responses/responses-undeclared-tool-guard.test.ts and tests/responses/chat-completions-deferred-tools.test.ts stay green.

Maintainer security review is still required before merge.

Notes for review

  • Carried commits keep their original authors; each carried group ends with a Co-authored-by trailer. Upstream PRs fix(bridge): require a catalog for enforced client tool calls #5717, fix(combo): refuse first dispatch when send budget is exhausted #5715 and fix(combo): bound server Retry-After target cooldowns #5716 were 10 commits behind dev, so they were cherry-picked by SHA. The only textual conflict was the Korean combo guide, where fix(combo): refuse first dispatch when send budget is exhausted #5715 and fix(combo): bound server Retry-After target cooldowns #5716 edit neighbouring paragraphs; both were kept.
  • feat(combos): explicit last-resort cooldown policy for failover #5736 layout fix: its new tests/codex-integration/combo-last-resort.test.ts matched no test-layout seed, so it is now registered in scripts/test-layout/layout.json and tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json.
  • Deliberate from fix(combo): refuse first dispatch when send budget is exhausted #5715: a spend-denied later hop returns the raw upstream failure. For a 413 that means the upstream body, not the context_length_exceeded envelope the loop's natural end produces. The carried test pins this.
  • Deliberate from [bug] combo management PUT can drop reasoningEffortMode and imageInput #5687: ocx combo set has no reasoningEffortMode flag. It used to reset the field silently; now it preserves it. Clearing remains available from the dashboard or with an explicit API value.
  • Locales: fr/tr/zh-tw have never had the cooldown/wait rows or the management-API paragraph, so the new rows and sentences follow the existing en/ja/ko/ru/zh-cn set. The new "Last-resort targets" prose section is English-only; the translated tables carry both new fields.
  • Review follow-ups on this PR (bot findings):
    • Fixed: the synchronous post-failure hop (advanceComboAfterFailure) ignored cooldownWaitPolicy, so a failure on a normal target could dispatch the last resort while another normal target was only briefly cooling. Under the policy it now skips last-resort targets and hands a null result to the policy-aware pickComboTargetWithWait. That function's only src caller (core-combo.ts) already falls back to that path on null.
    • Fixed: the per-target lastResort carry-over on PUT threw on targets: [null] instead of returning the structured 400, and it missed a re-sent target with untrimmed provider/model.
    • Docs corrected: under the policy a lastResort target is emergency-only for every strategy. It stays out of round-robin/random rotation while any normal target is available, and waitForCooldownMs only adds the wait for a cooling normal target. A test pins the round-robin behavior.
    • Not changed: adding x-should-retry: false to the combo's local request_send_budget_exhausted 429. The single-target path (adapter-dispatch.ts) returns the same bare 429 by design because Codex does not retry a 429, so any header change should cover both paths in its own PR.
  • Pre-existing, outside this bundle: a PUT that omits defaultEffort still resets it to null, and for a defaultEffortMode: "force" combo the CLI body is then refused. This PR does not change that.

Verification

All commands ran on macOS (arm64, Bun) at this PR's head, rebased on dev 742ee16.

  • bun run typecheck: exit 0.
  • Focused regression files for every item plus the layout, file-size ratchet and structure tests, 16 files at this head: 657 pass, 0 fail.
    bun test tests/responses/responses-tool-conformance.test.ts tests/responses/responses-undeclared-tool-guard.test.ts tests/responses/chat-completions-deferred-tools.test.ts tests/responses/responses-send-budget-counts.test.ts tests/server/server-combo-failover-e2e.test.ts tests/server/server-combo-held-response.test.ts tests/codex-integration/combos.test.ts tests/codex-integration/combo-last-resort.test.ts tests/routing/router-combo-failover-classification.test.ts tests/routing/combo-management-api.test.ts tests/gui/combo-workspace-data.test.ts ./gui/tests/combo-strategy-roundtrip.test.ts tests/test-layout.test.ts tests/test-layout-tooling.test.ts tests/ci-workflows/file-size-ratchet.test.ts tests/ci-workflows/structure-ssot.test.ts
  • Each new regression test (the [bug] combo management PUT can drop reasoningEffortMode and imageInput #5687 PUT preservation, the post-failure last-resort hop, and the carry-over target guard) fails with its source change removed and passes with it.
  • bun run privacy:scan, bun run structure:check, bun run lint:gui, git diff --check: all pass.
  • bun run test:changed (run before the review follow-up commits, which touch only src/combos/resolve.ts, combo-routes.ts, their tests and docs; the focused set above was rerun afterwards) selected 1260 files (26134 tests): 26064 pass, 44 skip, 26 fail. None of the failures are in combo, bridge, management or GUI code. They are in service ownership, launcher shutdown, the native Codex/Grok toggles, package-tree integrity, the remote-workspace sandbox and the star prompt. These were run at this exact head from a checkout outside ~/.codex, because inside a Codex-managed worktree the test-home guard refuses to delete temp directories and adds about 900 location-only failures. The ten failing files (all except shutdown-launcher, whose signal tests kill the calling shell) were then run in isolation at both clean dev 742ee16 and this head. Both fail the same two tests, star-deferral "agent deferral fires once per version" and package-tree-integrity "the default server guard accepts a restart after a sustained replacement", so neither comes from this branch.
  • Full-suite exception: six lanes share this machine, so a separate bun run test was not run. test:changed already selected the full 1260-file suite above, and hosted CI covers the rest.

GUI: gui/src/combo-workspace-data.ts changes only the dashboard's save payload: toPutBody now always sends imageInput and reasoningEffortMode. No screen, component or style changes, so there is nothing visual to screenshot.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults. Explicit maintainer security review remains required for item 1.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Combo routing can mark targets as last-resort and, when configured, wait briefly for a normal target to recover before using them.
    • Routed Responses requests with declared-tool enforcement reject client tool calls that aren’t in the declared tool catalog.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Explicit upstream Retry-After delays can now be honored up to 24 hours; other cooldowns remain capped at 10 minutes.
    • Combo settings omitted from an update are preserved. If the request-send budget blocks the first target, the request returns a local 429 without contacting a provider.
  • Documentation
    • Updated combo and tool-routing guidance to reflect these behaviors.

A brief cooldown on a preferred target routes straight to whatever comes next
in the list — including a target the operator only ever wanted used in an
emergency. There is no way to say "this one is a last resort", so transient
cooldown state dispatches it.

`cooldownWaitPolicy: "before-last-resort"` plus `lastResort: true` on a target
makes selection try the normal targets first. If they are only cooling and the
earliest cooldown expires inside the combo's existing `waitForCooldownMs`
budget, the request waits for that instead of dispatching the last resort.

**The policy only ever defers, and that is the property the tests are built
around.** When no normal target can be reached — every one cooling past the
budget, already attempted, or ruled out by the caller — the last-resort target
is dispatched exactly as today. A policy that could withhold it would turn a
fallback into an outage, which is strictly worse than the premature routing it
prevents. Five tests cover that one way each: cooling past the budget,
excluded, ruled out by the caller's own predicate, a combo whose targets are
all last-resort, and a zero wait budget.

The deferral wait is scoped to normal targets. A short cooldown on the
last-resort target must not make the request sleep on behalf of the very target
the policy is avoiding — though the ordinary wait below the policy branch may
still wait for it, and should, once it is the only candidate left. The test
asserts which branch does the waiting rather than whether any wait happens.

Both fields are omitted by default and only the exact literal `before-last-resort`
opts in, matching the rule `reasoningEffortMode` already follows. A truthy
non-boolean `lastResort` normalizes to false, so a config that fails validation
cannot still change routing if it is loaded anyway. The normalizer's null is
dropped by `sparseComboConfig`, so stored combos do not gain a meaningless key.

Scoped to src/combos/resolve.ts, which #5716 does not touch — that PR changes
cooldown *duration* in failover.ts, this one changes *selection*. They merge in
either order.

Eight mutations, seven caught, including the safety one: withholding the last
resort when no normal target is reachable fails immediately. The survivor is an
equivalent mutant — the `targets.some(t => !t.lastResort)` guard is a
short-circuit that only avoids one wasted selection pass, since the fall-through
already handles an all-last-resort combo identically. Recorded rather than
papered over with a contrived assertion.

Closes #5691

(cherry picked from commit a1ab7f3)
Four findings from the review on #5736, all reproduced before changing anything.

**The deferral wait and the ordinary wait now share one budget.** The worst of the
four and a bug I introduced. `waitForCooldownMs` is documented as a cap per
*selection attempt*, but the fall-through kept the original clock and the full
budget, so a 3s deferral followed by a 9s ordinary wait spent 12s against a 10s
cap — close to double in the worst case. Both the remaining budget and the clock
now advance by whatever the deferral slept, and they are identical to the old
values when it did not, so the non-policy path is untouched.

The clock half needs its own test: sharing the budget alone still measures the
second wait from the original `now`, so a target whose cooldown lapses during the
deferral reads as cooling for longer than it is. Pinned by asserting the second
sleep is 500ms rather than 3,500ms.

**`lastResort: false` is no longer persisted.** The normalizer gives every target
an explicit `false`, and the management route wrote normalized targets straight
into stored config — so saving any combo added a noise key to every target,
including combos that never use the policy. Only the opt-in value is stored now,
matching how the combo-level policy is already handled by `sparseComboConfig`.

**An omitted policy no longer deletes the stored one.** The management route
preserves `cooldownMs`, `waitForCooldownMs` and `defaultEffortMode` when a request
omits them; `cooldownWaitPolicy` was missing from that list, so a GUI round-trip
would have dropped it. `lastResort` rides on each target and had the same problem,
so it is carried over per target, matched on provider and model.

**Docs.** The English config table gained rows for both keys, and the four
translated guides that carry that table (ja, ko, ru, zh-cn) gained the same two
rows. Those translations are mine and should be checked by a native speaker.

Two mutations added for the budget fix — not counting the deferral sleep, and not
advancing the clock — and both are caught. The re-anchored safety mutation still
fails immediately.

The carried #5736 test matched no layout seed, so tests/test-layout.test.ts
failed on it. Register it in codex-integration in both layout files.

Co-authored-by: Abhishek Sharma <abhicse24@gmail.com>
A whole-combo PUT that omitted reasoningEffortMode or imageInput reset them
to strict/auto. `ocx combo set` has no flag for reasoningEffortMode, so every
CLI edit silently turned an adaptive combo back to strict. The route now
carries both from the stored combo when the body omits them, like it already
does for cooldownMs, waitForCooldownMs, defaultEffortMode and the last-resort
policy. Explicit values still replace them and invalid values are still
rejected.

The dashboard used omission to mean the default, so toPutBody now sends both
fields explicitly; otherwise switching back to auto or strict there would
never take effect. Storage stays sparse because the route strips defaults
before persisting.

Closes #5687
… the config reference

The configuration reference still said every combo cooldown is capped at
ten minutes and did not list lastResort or cooldownWaitPolicy. It now
states the 24-hour cap on explicit Retry-After delays, documents both new
fields, and the guide says the policy needs a nonzero waitForCooldownMs.
A dashboard-shaped save re-sends targets without lastResort and omits the
combo policy. Pin that both survive it and a rename, that a swapped-in
target does not inherit the flag, and that explicit false/null clear them
without leaving keys in the stored config.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This pull request adds opt-in last-resort combo routing, separates upstream Retry-After and local cooldown limits, preserves omitted combo settings in management PUT requests, corrects Responses send-budget refusal handling, and makes declared-tool enforcement fail closed when its catalog is absent. Documentation and tests cover these changes.

Changes

Combo routing, cooldowns, and persistence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Combo policy and target contract
src/types/config.ts, src/types.ts, src/combos/types.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/routing.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/combos.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/{ja,ko,ru,zh-cn}/guides/combos.md, tests/codex-integration/combos.test.ts
Adds lastResort and cooldownWaitPolicy to combo configuration. Validation accepts "before-last-resort" and normalizes target flags to false unless set to true.
Cooldown handling and target selection
src/combos/failover.ts, src/combos/resolve.ts, tests/codex-integration/combo-last-resort.test.ts, tests/codex-integration/combos.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/{fr,ja,ko,ru,tr,zh-cn,zh-tw}/guides/combos.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/combos.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/routing.md, structure/runtime.md, scripts/test-layout/layout.json, tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json
Caps explicit upstream Retry-After cooldowns at 24 hours and other cooldowns at 10 minutes. The opt-in policy waits for a normal target’s cooldown within the shared waitForCooldownMs budget, then allows last-resort targets when no normal target is reachable.
Management PUT preservation and dashboard payloads
src/server/management/combo-routes.ts, gui/src/combo-workspace-data.ts, tests/routing/combo-management-api.test.ts, tests/gui/combo-workspace-data.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/{ja,ko,ru,zh-cn}/guides/combos.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/combos.md, structure/gui-and-management-api.md
Management PUT preserves omitted settings and matching targets’ lastResort flags. Explicit values replace stored values. Dashboard payloads include imageInput and reasoningEffortMode.

Responses combo send-budget handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reservation refusal and response handling
src/server/responses/core-combo.ts, tests/responses/responses-send-budget-counts.test.ts, structure/transports/responses-failover.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/combos.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/ko/guides/combos.md
A denied initial reservation returns a local request_send_budget_exhausted 429 without an upstream request. A denied later reservation returns the last upstream failure without contacting the denied target.

Declared tool enforcement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Declared-tool enforcement in Responses bridges
src/bridge/response-json.ts, src/bridge/sse.ts, tests/responses/responses-tool-conformance.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/codex-integration.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/ko/guides/codex-integration.md, structure/transports/responses-wire-shapes.md
The buffered and streamed Responses bridges reject undeclared client tool calls when enforcement is enabled. Explicit enforcement with no catalog fails closed; explicit false disables the gate.

P2 Badge Apply last-resort deferral to post-failure picks

This policy runs only through pickComboTargetWithWait, but after an upstream failure executeComboResponses first calls advanceComboAfterFailure, which performs a synchronous unrestricted pick and uses it immediately when non-null. For example, with normal targets A and B, last-resort C, and B cooling for 3 seconds, a failure from A causes that selector to choose C immediately even when waitForCooldownMs is 10 seconds; the new policy never gets a chance to wait for B. Route post-failure selection through the policy-aware path, or exclude last-resort targets from the immediate pick when a waitable normal target remains.

P2 Badge Validate target entries before preserving lastResort

When updating an existing combo, any array-valued targets enters this preservation map before comboConfigError validates its elements. A malformed request such as targets: [null] therefore calls Object.hasOwn(null, "lastResort") and throws instead of returning the existing structured 400 validation response. Check that each target is a plain record before inspecting it, or run validation before performing the carry-over.

Apply before-last-resort only when a wait budget exists.

At src/combos/resolve.ts:403-413, the normalOnly selection runs whenever cooldownWaitPolicy is "before-last-resort". It excludes every lastResort target before the code checks options.waitForCooldownMs.

With strategy: "round-robin", a healthy normal target makes pickComboTarget return immediately. The healthy lastResort target therefore does not participate in rotation, even when waitForCooldownMs is 0.

This conflicts with the public contract in docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/routing.md:93 and docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/combos.md:259-263. Those documents state that the policy applies while a normal target is cooling and that zero wait performs no deferral. The implementation comment at src/combos/resolve.ts:394-401 describes the intended emergency-only behavior, but it does not override those published contracts.

Suggested fix
   const defersLastResort = policyCombo?.cooldownWaitPolicy === "before-last-resort"
+    && options.waitForCooldownMs > 0
     && policyCombo.targets.some(target => !target.lastResort);

Add a round-robin regression case with healthy normal and last-resort targets and zero wait.

Mark the local budget refusal as non-retryable for SDK clients.

When the first reservation is denied, src/server/responses/core-combo.ts:457 returns a local 429 without x-should-retry: false. formatErrorResponse adds that header only for replay-refusal codes, not request_send_budget_exhausted. Supported SDK clients can retry the bare 429 and submit the request again as a new logical request with a new send budget. Set the no-retry header on this response and assert it in the first-reservation test.

이 PR은 콤보(여러 공급자를 하나의 모델처럼 묶어 쓰는 설정)가 실패할 때 다음 대상으로 넘기는 길을 더 안전하게 만듭니다. 네 가지를 dev에 한 묶음으로 올립니다.

도구 이름을 검사하라고 했는데 도구 목록이 없으면, 지금까지는 검사를 건너뛰고 그 도구 호출을 클라이언트에게 넘겼습니다. 이제는 그 호출을 거절합니다. 목록이 있으면 예전처럼 목록 안에 있는 이름만 통과합니다. Chat과 Anthropic처럼 검사를 끄라고 한 요청은 클라이언트가 스스로 검사합니다.

보낼 수 있는 횟수가 이미 바닥이면, 첫 대상에도 요청을 보내지 않습니다. 로컬 429 request_send_budget_exhausted를 돌려줍니다. 두 번째 이후가 막히면 그 대상에는 보내지 않고, 직전에 받은 업스트림 실패를 돌려줍니다.

업스트림이 Retry-After로 아주 긴 시간을 주면 그 대상이 사실상 계속 쉬었습니다. 그 명시적 지연은 최대 24시간으로 자릅니다. 리셋 시각, 설정한 쿨다운, 기본 쿨다운은 예전처럼 10분이 한도입니다.

대상을 lastResort(정말 급할 때만 쓰는 대상)로 표시할 수 있습니다. cooldownWaitPolicy가 before-last-resort이면, 일반 대상의 짧은 쿨다운이 waitForCooldownMs 안에 끝나면 그 시간을 기다렸다가 고릅니다. 일반 대상을 쓸 수 없을 때만 비상용으로 갑니다. PUT /api/combos에서 reasoningEffortMode나 imageInput을 빼먹으면 저장해 둔 값을 유지합니다. 대시보드는 이 두 값을 항상 보내므로, 화면에서 auto나 strict로 되돌리면 저장값도 바뀝니다.

새 타입은 src/types/config.ts에 있고 src/types.ts는 그 이름을 다시 내보낼 뿐입니다. 이 나눔은 그대로 두면 됩니다.

라인 - advanceComboAfterFailure(src/combos/resolve.ts)는 쿨다운이 아닌 대상을 바로 고릅니다. 업스트림이 실패한 뒤 executeComboResponses(src/server/responses/core-combo.ts)는 그 결과가 있으면 pickComboTargetWithWait를 호출하지 않습니다. 일반 대상 B가 3초만 쉬고 있고 비상용 C는 쓸 수 있으면, 기다릴 시간이 10초여도 C로 바로 넘어갑니다. 새 정책이 막으려던 일이 실패 뒤 선택에서는 그대로 일어납니다. 실패 뒤에도 같은 대기를 타게 하거나, 기다릴 수 있는 일반 대상이 있으면 즉시 고르기에서 비상용을 빼야 합니다. 새 테스트는 pickComboTargetWithWait만 호출해서 이 길을 잡지 못합니다.

라인 - src/server/management/combo-routes.ts의 lastResort 복사는 comboConfigError보다 앞에 있습니다. targets 안에 null처럼 객체가 아닌 값이 있으면 Object.hasOwn이 예외를 던지고, 원래 나오던 400 검증 응답이 나오지 않습니다. 각 항목이 객체인지 먼저 보거나, 검증을 이 복사보다 앞에 두면 됩니다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

도구 거절은 프록시가 클라이언트에게 넘기는 도구 호출의 경계입니다. 이번 조건은 목록이 없을 때만 새로 거절하고, 목록이 있을 때 통과하는 범위는 넓히지 않습니다. PR 본문도 머지 전에 보안 리뷰가 필요하다고 적혀 있습니다. 그 확인은 이 댓글이 대신하지 않습니다.

defaultEffort를 본문에서 빼면 여전히 null로 돌아가고, defaultEffortMode가 force인 콤보는 CLI 본문이 거절될 수 있습니다. 이 PR은 그 동작을 바꾸지 않습니다. 같은 결로 볼지, 다음 묶음으로 둘지만 정해 주세요.

비상용 대상을 설명하는 문단은 영어 가이드에만 있습니다. ja, ko, ru, zh-cn 표에는 행이 들어갔고, fr, tr, zh-tw는 Retry-After 한도 문장만 바뀌었습니다. 표만으로 충분한지 봐 주세요.

아직 열려 있는 #5715, #5716, #5717, #5736은 이 묶음이 가져오는 내용입니다. 이 PR이 들어가면 그 PR들은 닫아 주세요. 따로 머지하면 같은 수정이 두 갈래가 됩니다.

너의 추천

실패 뒤 즉시 선택과, 잘못된 targets에서 검증 전에 터지는 예외를 고친 다음 머지하면 됩니다. 도구 거절, 첫 전송 예산, Retry-After 24시간 상한은 고치지 않아도 됩니다. 타입 파일 나눔도 지금 형태를 유지하면 됩니다.

After an upstream failure, core-combo first takes a synchronous pick from
advanceComboAfterFailure, which ignored cooldownWaitPolicy. With normal A
and B, last-resort C and B cooling briefly, a failure on A dispatched C at
once and the policy never waited for B. Under the policy that pick now
skips last-resort targets; a null result falls through to
pickComboTargetWithWait, which waits for a normal target inside the budget
or dispatches the last resort. Also pin that a last-resort target stays
out of round-robin while a normal target is available.

The per-target lastResort carry-over read every target before validation,
so targets: [null] threw instead of returning the structured 400, and an
untrimmed re-sent target missed the stored (trimmed) one and lost its
flag. Skip non-record entries and match on trimmed provider and model.

…e policy

With cooldownWaitPolicy set, a lastResort target is skipped whenever any
normal target is available, for every strategy; waitForCooldownMs only
adds the wait for a cooling normal target. Replace the sentence that
said the policy needs a nonzero wait, and state the rule in the English
reference and in the translated table rows.

P2 Badge Make synchronous combo preflight honor the last-resort policy

When a translated Chat request arrives while its normal target is briefly cooling, this path makes the final Responses executor wait for that target, but the earlier routeModel preflight still calls tryPickComboModel → pickComboTarget without this policy and selects the immediately available last-resort target. chat-completions.ts then performs admission checks and target-specific effort normalization against that wrong target, so a scoped key that permits the normal target but not the emergency target receives a 403 instead of waiting, and an emergency target with an empty effort ladder can strip effort before the normal target is dispatched. Make the synchronous preflight use the same last-resort decision, or defer concrete-target checks and normalization until executeComboResponses makes the authoritative pick.
