-# Phase 2: LLM Service Layer — Merged Architecture Design
-
-*Date: 2026-02-25*
-*Status: Proposed (pending decision)*
-*Supersedes: Original issue #3 design + 2026-02-25 architecture analysis*
-
----
-
-## Problem
-
-nax v0.10.0 has two coupling issues:
-
-1. **All LLM calls go through Claude Code CLI** — routing, review, acceptance stages spawn `claude -p` just for text reasoning. Wasteful.
-2. **All coding goes through CLI subprocess** — ~350MB RAM each, blocks parallelism.
-
-## Solution: Unified LLM Service Layer + Lightweight Agent Loop
-
-Two execution paths, one provider abstraction:
-
-```
-LlmProvider (interface — normalized across providers)
-  ├── AnthropicProvider        (Messages API)
-  ├── GoogleProvider           (GenerateContent API)
-  └── OpenAiCompatProvider     (Chat Completions — covers OpenAI, Moonshot, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Groq, etc.)
-
-Used by:
-  ├── LLM Mode (text in → text out) — routing, analyze, review, acceptance
-  │     └── llm/client.ts → callLlm(prompt, tier, config)
-  │
-  └── Agent Mode (text + tools) — coding, TDD
-        ├── DirectApiAdapter — LlmProvider + tool loop (~5MB per session)
-        └── ClaudeCodeAdapter — CLI subprocess (~350MB, for TDD/interactive)
-```
-

-
-## LlmProvider Interface
-
-```typescript
-interface LlmProvider {
-  readonly name: string;
-
-  chat(options: {
-    model: string;
-    messages: Message[];
-    tools?: ToolDefinition[];   // Optional — omit for LLM Mode (reasoning only)
-    maxTokens?: number;
-    temperature?: number;
-    timeoutMs?: number;
-  }): Promise<LlmResponse>;
-}
-
-interface LlmResponse {
-  content: string;
-  toolCalls: ToolCall[];         // Normalized regardless of provider format
-  stopReason: "end_turn" | "tool_use" | "max_tokens";
-  usage: { inputTokens: number; outputTokens: number };
-}
-```
-
-Single interface serves both modes:
-- **LLM Mode** (routing, review): `chat()` without `tools` → text response
-- **Agent Mode** (coding): `chat()` with `tools` → tool calls → agent loop iterates
-
-## Provider Implementations
-
-| Implementation | Covers | API Format | Tool Use Format |
-|:---------------|:-------|:-----------|:---------------|
-| `AnthropicProvider` | Anthropic (Claude) | Messages API | `tool_use` content blocks |
-| `OpenAiCompatProvider` | OpenAI, Moonshot, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Groq, Together | Chat Completions | `tool_calls` in message |
-| `GoogleProvider` | Google Gemini | GenerateContent | `functionCall` in parts |
-
-`OpenAiCompatProvider` takes `baseUrl` + `apiKey` — any OpenAI-compatible provider works with zero code.
-
-## Tier-Based Fallback Chains
-
-Each tier is an ordered list of providers. On 429/error, try next in chain:
-
-```
-Stage needs "balanced" tier
-  → Try anthropic/sonnet
-  → Rate limited (429)? → Try openai/gpt-5
-  → Also limited? → Try next in list
-  → All exhausted? → Stage fails with clear error
-```
-
-Both LLM Mode and Agent Mode use the same fallback logic via `llm/client.ts`:
-
-```
-config.models["balanced"]  →  [anthropic/sonnet, openai/gpt-5]
-                                    │
-                  ┌─────────────────┴──────────────────┐
-                  │                                     │
-            LLM Mode stages                      Agent Mode stages
-            (routing, review)                    (coding, TDD)
-                  │                                     │
-          llm/client.ts                         DirectApiAdapter
-          tries providers                       tries providers
-          in order                              in order (with tools)
-```
-
-Single `ModelDef` (not array) is treated as array of one — backward compatible, no fallback.
-
-## Backend Routing
-
-Three-level resolution:
-
-### 1. Per-Stage Pipeline Override (most specific)
-
-```json
-{
-  "pipeline": {
-    "routing": {
-      "primary": { "provider": "google", "model": "gemini-flash", "via": "api" },
-      "fallback": [
-        { "provider": "anthropic", "model": "haiku", "via": "api" },
-        { "via": "keyword" }
-      ]
-    },
-    "implementation": {
-      "primary": { "provider": "anthropic", "model": "sonnet", "via": "api" },
-      "fallback": [
-        { "via": "claude-cli" }
-      ]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-The `via` field determines execution path:
-- `"api"` → Direct API (LLM Mode or DirectApiAdapter depending on stage)
-- `"claude-cli"` → Claude Code CLI subprocess
-- `"keyword"` → built-in keyword strategy (routing only)
-
-### 2. Strategy Override (tdd/interactive → force backend)
-
-```json
-{
-  "agents": {
-    "overrides": {
-      "tdd": "claude-cli",
-      "interactive": "claude-cli"
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Tier Routing (default)
-
-```json
-{
-  "agents": {
-    "routing": {
-      "fast": { "provider": "gemini", "model": "gemini-2.5-flash" },
-      "balanced": { "provider": "anthropic", "model": "claude-sonnet-4-5" },
-      "powerful": { "provider": "anthropic", "model": "claude-opus-4" }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Resolution Logic
-
-```typescript
-function resolveBackend(
-  tier: ModelTier,
-  stage: string,
-  context: { tdd: boolean; interactive: boolean }
-): BackendConfig {
-  const config = loadConfig();
-
-  // 1. Per-stage pipeline override
-  if (config.pipeline?.[stage]?.primary) return config.pipeline[stage];
-
-  // 2. Strategy override
-  if (context.tdd && config.agents?.overrides?.tdd) return config.agents.overrides.tdd;
-  if (context.interactive && config.agents?.overrides?.interactive) return config.agents.overrides.interactive;
-
-  // 3. Tier routing
-  return config.agents?.routing?.[tier] ?? "claude-cli";
-}
-```
-
-## Full Config Example
-
-```json
-{
-  "agents": {
-    "providers": {
-      "anthropic": {
-        "type": "anthropic",
-        "apiKey": "${ANTHROPIC_API_KEY}"
-      },
-      "openai": {
-        "type": "openai-compat",
-        "baseUrl": "https://api.openai.com/v1",
-        "apiKey": "${OPENAI_API_KEY}"
-      },
-      "gemini": {
-        "type": "google",
-        "apiKey": "${GOOGLE_API_KEY}"
-      },
-      "moonshot": {
-        "type": "openai-compat",
-        "baseUrl": "https://api.moonshot.cn/v1",
-        "apiKey": "${MOONSHOT_API_KEY}"
-      },
-      "deepseek": {
-        "type": "openai-compat",
-        "baseUrl": "https://api.deepseek.com/v1",
-        "apiKey": "${DEEPSEEK_API_KEY}"
-      }
-    },
-    "routing": {
-      "fast": { "provider": "gemini", "model": "gemini-2.5-flash" },
-      "balanced": [
-        { "provider": "anthropic", "model": "claude-sonnet-4-5" },
-        { "provider": "openai", "model": "gpt-5" }
-      ],
-      "powerful": { "provider": "anthropic", "model": "claude-opus-4" }
-    },
-    "overrides": {
-      "tdd": "claude-cli",
-      "interactive": "claude-cli"
-    }
-  },
-  "pipeline": {
-    "routing": {
-      "primary": { "provider": "gemini", "model": "gemini-flash", "via": "api" },
-      "fallback": [{ "via": "keyword" }]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Minimal Tool Set (for DirectApiAdapter)
-
-| Tool | What | Lines |
-|:-----|:-----|:------|
-| `read_file` | Read file contents (with line range) | ~15 |
-| `write_file` | Write/create file (with mkdir -p) | ~15 |
-| `list_files` | List directory (recursive option) | ~15 |
-| `search_files` | Grep/ripgrep pattern search | ~20 |
-| `run_command` | Shell exec with timeout + cwd | ~30 |
-
-~95 lines total. Each tool is sandboxed to the project workdir.
-
-## Agent Loop
-
-```typescript
-async function agentLoop(
-  provider: LlmProvider,
-  model: string,
-  prompt: string,
-  workdir: string,
-  maxIterations: number = 50,
-): Promise<AgentResult> {
-  const tools = getToolDefinitions();
-  let messages: Message[] = [{ role: "user", content: prompt }];
-  let totalCost = { input: 0, output: 0 };
-
-  for (let i = 0; i < maxIterations; i++) {
-    const response = await provider.chat({ model, messages, tools });
-    totalCost.input += response.usage.inputTokens;
-    totalCost.output += response.usage.outputTokens;
-
-    if (response.stopReason === "end_turn") {
-      return { success: true, output: response.content, cost: totalCost };
-    }
-
-    // Execute tool calls
-    const toolResults = await Promise.all(
-      response.toolCalls.map(tc => executeTool(tc, workdir))
-    );
-
-    messages.push({ role: "assistant", content: response.content, toolCalls: response.toolCalls });
-    messages.push({ role: "tool", results: toolResults });
-  }
-
-  return { success: false, output: "Max iterations reached", cost: totalCost };
-}
-```
-
-~150 lines with error handling, logging, and token budget checks.
-
-## Comparison: CLI vs Direct API
-
-| Factor | Claude Code CLI | Direct API |
-|:-------|:---------------|:-----------|
-| RAM per session | ~350MB | ~5MB |
-| Parallel stories | OOMs at 3 | 10+ concurrent |
-| Cost tracking | Estimated from duration | Exact token counts from API |
-| Provider flexibility | Anthropic only | Any provider with tool_use |
-| Tool access | ~50 tools (overkill) | 5 tools (minimal, sandboxed) |
-| CLAUDE.md support | ✅ Auto-loaded | ❌ Must inject into prompt |
-| TDD isolation | ✅ PTY-based session isolation | ⚠️ Possible but needs validation |
-| Interactive/TUI | ✅ PTY handle | ❌ Not supported |
-| Dependencies | `claude` binary installed | Just HTTP (fetch) |
-
-## Backward Compatibility
-
-- No `agents` section in config → everything uses `claude-cli` (current behavior)
-- No `pipeline` section → stages inherit from tier routing
-- Single ModelDef (not array) → treated as array of one, no fallback
-- Zero breaking changes
-
-## Component Breakdown
-
-| Component | Est. Lines | What |
-|:----------|:-----------|:-----|
-| `llm/types.ts` | ~60 | LlmProvider, Message, ToolCall, LlmResponse |
-| `llm/providers/anthropic.ts` | ~80 | Messages API + tool_use normalization |
-| `llm/providers/openai-compat.ts` | ~80 | Chat Completions + configurable baseUrl |
-| `llm/providers/google.ts` | ~100 | GenerateContent + functionCall normalization |
-| `llm/registry.ts` | ~40 | Provider factory from config |
-| `llm/client.ts` | ~80 | callLlm() with fallback chain + retry |
-| `llm/tools/*.ts` (5 tools) | ~95 | read, write, list, search, exec |
-| `llm/agent-loop.ts` | ~150 | Tool use cycle with iteration limit |
-| `agents/direct-api.ts` | ~80 | DirectApiAdapter wrapping llm/ layer |
-| `agents/registry.ts` (update) | ~30 | Resolve backend config → adapter |
-| `config/schema.ts` (update) | ~100 | providers, routing, overrides, pipeline |
-| **Total** | **~895** | |
-
-## Implementation Phases
-
-| Phase | Scope | Effort | Enables |
-|:------|:------|:-------|:--------|
-| P1 | LlmProvider interface + AnthropicProvider + callLlm() | Small | LLM Mode for routing/review |
-| P2 | OpenAiCompatProvider + GoogleProvider | Small | Multi-provider support |
-| P3 | Fallback chain logic in client.ts | Medium | Rate limit resilience |
-| P4 | Tool definitions + agent loop + DirectApiAdapter | Medium | API-based coding |
-| P5 | Per-stage pipeline config | Medium | Fine-grained stage control |
-| P6 | Wire LLM Mode into routing, review, acceptance stages | Medium | Remove CLI dependency for reasoning |
-
-P1-P2 can ship independently as a quick win (LLM Mode only). P4 is the big unlock for Phase 3 parallelism.
-
-## Auth/Key Management
-
-Provider keys flow from config with env var expansion:
-
-```json
-{
-  "providers": {
-    "anthropic": { "type": "anthropic", "apiKey": "${ANTHROPIC_API_KEY}" }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Each provider reads `apiKey` from its config entry. Fallback to `process.env` for backward compat.
-Per-model env overrides via `ModelDef.env` still work (existing behavior).
-
-## Enables Phase 3 (Parallelism)
-
-With DirectApiAdapter (~5MB each), Phase 3 becomes feasible:
-- N stories execute concurrently via parallel HTTP calls
-- Each story gets its own git worktree (from dev-orchestrator pattern)
-- No OOM risk — 10 concurrent stories ≈ 50MB total vs 3.5GB with CLI
-- Exact cost tracking per story from API token counts

-## Findings
-
-### CRITICAL
-
-*None found.*
-
-### HIGH
-
-#### BUG-1: runner.ts exceeds 400-line guideline at 1,310 lines (HIGH)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/runner.ts`
-**Risk:** Cognitive complexity, harder to test individual paths, merge conflicts.
-**Snippet:** `wc -l src/execution/runner.ts → 1310`
-**Fix:** Extract the status-file write orchestration, the story pipeline dispatch, and the escalation logic into separate modules (as was done with `post-verify.ts`). The `writeStatus` closure and its state vars could become a `StatusFileWriter` class.
-
-#### SEC-1: Status file path not validated for path traversal (HIGH)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/status-file.ts:170`
-```typescript
-export async function writeStatusFile(filePath: string, status: NaxStatusFile): Promise<void> {
-  const tmpPath = `${filePath}.tmp`;
-  await Bun.write(tmpPath, JSON.stringify(status, null, 2));
-  await rename(tmpPath, filePath);
-}
-```
-**Risk:** If `statusFile` option is user-controlled (e.g., via CLI arg), arbitrary file overwrite is possible. Currently mitigated by the fact that the path is derived from `--status-file` CLI arg which is operator-controlled, but no validation exists.
-**Fix:** Add `path.resolve()` + verify the path is within the workdir or a known safe directory.
-
-### MEDIUM
-
-#### ENH-1: `getSafeLogger()` duplicated across files (MEDIUM)
-
-**Files:** `src/execution/runner.ts:71`, `src/execution/post-verify.ts:80`
-```typescript
-function getSafeLogger() {
-  try { return getLogger(); }
-  catch { return null; }
-}
-```
-**Risk:** DRY violation. If logger initialization changes, both copies need updating.
-**Fix:** Export `getSafeLogger()` from `src/logger.ts` or a shared utility.
-
-#### TYPE-1: `captureGitRef()` duplicated with different signatures (MEDIUM)
-
-**Files:** `src/execution/post-verify.ts:17` (returns `string | undefined`), `src/tdd/orchestrator.ts:30` (returns `string`, throws on failure)
-**Risk:** Inconsistent error handling for the same operation. The orchestrator version will throw if git isn't available.
-**Fix:** Consolidate into a single shared function in a git utility module. Prefer the `string | undefined` signature for resilience.
-
-#### BUG-2: `writeStatus` swallows errors silently during critical state transitions (MEDIUM)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/runner.ts:188-193`
-```typescript
-catch (err) {
-  safeLogger?.warn("status-file", "Failed to write status file (non-fatal)", {
-    path: statusFile,
-    error: (err as Error).message,
-  });
-}
-```
-**Risk:** If the status file write fails repeatedly (e.g., disk full), the only signal is a warn log that may be missed. External tooling polling the file would see stale data.
-**Fix:** Consider a counter; after N consecutive failures, emit a more prominent error or set a flag on the run state.
-
-#### ENH-2: Verdict validation could use a schema library (MEDIUM)
-
-**File:** `src/tdd/verdict.ts:85-120` — `isValidVerdict()` is 35 lines of manual validation.
-**Risk:** Verbose and error-prone as the schema evolves. New fields require manual validation additions.
-**Fix:** Consider using `zod` or `valibot` for declarative schema validation. However, the current zero-dependency approach is acceptable for a CLI tool — marking as enhancement, not a bug.
-
-#### MEM-1: Atomic write leaves orphan `.tmp` file on crash between write and rename (MEDIUM)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/status-file.ts:172-175`
-**Risk:** If the process crashes after `Bun.write()` but before `rename()`, a `.tmp` file persists. Not a memory leak but can cause confusion.
-**Fix:** Add cleanup of stale `.tmp` files at runner startup, or use `try/finally` to attempt cleanup.
-
-### LOW
-
-#### STYLE-1: Inconsistent `as FailureCategory` casts in orchestrator (LOW)
-
-**File:** `src/tdd/orchestrator.ts:293, 312`
-```typescript
-failureCategory: "session-failure" as FailureCategory,
-failureCategory: "isolation-violation" as FailureCategory,
-```
-**Risk:** The type is already `FailureCategory`, so the cast is redundant and adds noise.
-**Fix:** Remove the `as FailureCategory` casts — TypeScript already infers the string literal correctly.
-
-#### STYLE-2: Test file duplication — `tdd-verdict.test.ts` and `verdict.test.ts` overlap significantly (LOW)
-
-**Files:** `test/verdict.test.ts` (339 lines), `test/tdd-verdict.test.ts` (290 lines)
-**Risk:** Both test `readVerdict`, `cleanupVerdict`, and `categorizeVerdict` with very similar test cases. Maintenance burden doubles.
-**Fix:** Consolidate into a single test file. If both were generated by different subtasks, merge the more thorough assertions from each.
-
-#### ENH-3: `countProgress` iterates stories 4 times (LOW)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/status-file.ts:101-106`
-```typescript
-const passed = stories.filter((s) => s.status === "passed").length;
-const failed = stories.filter((s) => s.status === "failed").length;
-const paused = stories.filter((s) => s.status === "paused").length;
-const blocked = stories.filter((s) => s.status === "blocked").length;
-```
-**Risk:** Negligible performance impact (PRDs have <50 stories), but could be a single loop.
-**Fix:** Single `reduce()` pass. Low priority — readability is fine as-is.
-
-#### PERF-1: `buildStatusSnapshot` calls `Date.now()` once but creates `new Date()` separately (LOW)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/status-file.ts:154`
-```typescript
-const now = Date.now();
-// ...
-updatedAt: new Date(now).toISOString(),
-```
-**Risk:** None — this is actually correct and efficient. No finding here, just noting the pattern is clean.
-
-#### ENH-4: `resolveMaxAttemptsOutcome` could benefit from exhaustive matching (LOW)
-
-**File:** `src/execution/runner.ts:59-64`
-```typescript
-export function resolveMaxAttemptsOutcome(failureCategory?: FailureCategory): "pause" | "fail" {
-  if (failureCategory === "isolation-violation" || failureCategory === "verifier-rejected") {
-    return "pause";
-  }
-  return "fail";
-}
-```
-**Risk:** If new `FailureCategory` values are added, this function silently defaults to "fail".
-**Fix:** Add a `satisfies never` exhaustive check or use a switch statement.
-
----
-
-## What Was Done Well
-
-1. **Atomic writes** for the status file — write-to-tmp-then-rename prevents partial reads.
-2. **Verdict validation** is thorough — `isValidVerdict()` checks every required field, returns null on failure (never throws).
-3. **Clean separation** — verdict reading, categorization, and cleanup are separate functions with single responsibilities.
-4. **Fallback paths** — when no verdict file exists, the orchestrator gracefully falls back to independent test verification.
-5. **Test coverage** is excellent — ~6 test files covering all three features with edge cases, error paths, and priority ordering.
-6. **Type design** — `FailureCategory` as a union type, `NaxStatusFile` with version field for forward compat, `ThreeSessionTddResult.verdict` using `null | undefined` distinction.
-7. **Documentation** — JSDoc on all public APIs with clear parameter descriptions.
-8. **`markStoryFailed` backward compatibility** — the `failureCategory` parameter is optional; existing callers don't break.

-## Summary
-
-v0.10.1 is a **solid implementation** of three well-scoped features. The code demonstrates good defensive programming (never-throw readers, atomic writes, graceful fallbacks) and strong type design. Test coverage is comprehensive with both happy-path and error-path cases.
-
-The main concern is **runner.ts growing to 1,310 lines** — the status-file integration added more state and write points to an already large file. The next refactoring pass should extract the status-file writer and the story pipeline dispatch into separate modules.
-
-No critical security or reliability issues found. The codebase is production-ready.
