+/**
+ * Stall detector (programme smart-model-selection W4 / change:
+ * difficulty-routed-selection) — detect a stuck tool loop and expose a
+ * single-tier escalation signal for the default role target.
+ *
+ * Semantics follow LiteLLM's stall_detector (config.py:1061-1092 同参):
+ * - Signature = `toolName + 稳定序列化(args)` — object keys sorted, long
+ *   strings truncated at a constant cap, unserializable args degrade to the
+ *   bare tool name.
+ * - Sliding window of the last `window` (default 6) tool calls per session.
+ * - Anchor on the NEWEST call's signature: it repeats ≥ `threshold`
+ *   (default 3) times inside the window → stall active.
+ * - Episode: the first active determination of an episode reports
+ *   `escalated: true` exactly once (只升一档); a signature change ends the
+ *   episode (its escalation latch resets — the target then falls back to the
+ *   classifier band, which is a regular re-band, never a downgrade action).
+ *
+ * Degradation is SAFE-SIDE (design D4): empty windows, missing transcript
+ * entries or corrupt session data all yield "no stall state" — the feature
+ * idles, selection keeps its previous behavior. Observation gaps never
+ * produce a downgrade and never warn into the selection path.
+ *
+ * Read-only contract (T4): the detector only shapes the NEXT selection
+ * recompute's inputs; nothing here switches a live model identity, and the
+ * 429/403 diagnostic path (tool_execution_end) is untouched.
