**A hand-declared route must not offer a reasoning effort.** The earlier
commit read the create card's missing control as drift and added one. It
is the other way round: such a model has no reasoning capability — pi-ai's
installed catalog is what supplies one, and it ships nothing under the
route — so `resolveModel` throws UNSUPPORTED_REASONING_EFFORT for every
model on it and the whole provider drops out of the picker. Verified
against the adapter, not inferred. The create card no longer offers it and
the editor withholds it on the directory's `declared` bit, which is the
real bug: that control has always been wrong for these routes.
**A blocked composer locked the way out of the block.** Reusing the
no-workspace inert posture disabled the model seat along with everything
else, so the bar asked for a model while preventing the one control that
picks one. A block now rides its own `blocked` owner prop: the textarea,
send, commands, plan seat, and access chip all lock, and the model seat
alone stays live.
**A Provider ID could derive an illegal credential reference.** The card
accepted a digit-leading id, whose derived `123_API_KEY` then failed at
the credential seam with a raw regular expression the user cannot act on.
The id must now start with a letter, and a test pins the relation between
the two rules rather than the regex.
A default naming a route the Models page has since removed left the
composer saying 选择模型 while the input still accepted a message, which
then failed inside the adapter mid-turn.
`session.prompt` now refuses with `model-unavailable` before opening a
turn. That is the enforcement boundary: the method stays callable no
matter what a client disables. `session.models` reports the same fact as
`routable`, and ui-model pushes a block through the new
`ctx.conversation.blocks` registry so the bar renders the disabled
textarea it already renders without a workspace, carrying the blocker's
own reason. The push direction is forced — ui-model already depends on
ui-conversation, so ui-conversation cannot read it back.
The gate is `routable`, not "matches no advertised group": catalog
membership is advisory, so a route serving a model it stopped advertising
is missing from the groups yet perfectly usable, and `null` before the
first load never blocks so a slow Host cannot lock a working composer.
The scaffold gains a route-only adapter for fixture-less keyless
scenarios. Registering zero providers is a test artifact — every product
composition mounts one — and the goldens that froze the seat's fallback
label now show the model those scenarios actually route to.
A row's stored profile could not tell a hand-declared gateway from a
shipped provider whose models someone narrowed — both look identical from
outside the adapter — so the Models page had no way to mark the routes a
deployment added itself.
The directory entry now carries `declared`, answered by the owning adapter
against its own installed catalog, and the page renders a Custom tag from
it. Absence stays "this adapter draws no such distinction" rather than
"shipped", so a route no adapter claims is labelled neither way.
Also records the default-route work's Agent Note and the e2e evidence for
all three changes: the composer switch writing the section, and the Models
page declaring a route with its own reasoning effort.
