* Rewrite comments in Google developer documentation style
Rewrite the comments and docstrings across the backend core modules so they
read plainly. The previous prose was accurate but dense and figurative, which
made it slow to skim.
Applies the Google developer documentation style guide: short sentences, active
voice, present tense, American spelling, and no metaphors, idioms, or
rhetorical asides. Replaces em-dash chains with separate sentences.
AI Chat is a plain scratchpad for talking to a model directly — no story
context, scripts or world state — for poking at models, prompts and endpoints
without starting an adventure. Power users only: the router 404s (rather than
403s) for everyone else and the nav link is hidden. The conversation lives in
localStorage, so there's no new table or migration.
is_power_user() now also returns True in local mode: it's the operator's own
machine and their own key, the same reasoning that makes the provider debug log
local-only.
Alongside that, the rule keeping the shared demo key off paid models now lives
in exactly one place. It had been duplicated into the chat router, which is how
one copy eventually drifts:
- resolve_provider_config() takes an optional model_override and is the only
place the whitelist is applied, so turns, AI Chat and the connection test all
inherit it. An override is a per-request preference, never a grant.
- ProviderConfig.__post_init__ refuses to exist when api_key is the demo key
and the model isn't whitelisted. It keys on the key itself rather than the
using_demo flag, so a mislabelled config can't slip past, and it raises so a
future path that bypasses the resolver fails loudly instead of billing.
- The demo branch still pins endpoint_url too — a user-controlled endpoint
would leak the key itself, which is worse than spending it.
Provider gained chat(messages, ...) beside generate(), both delegating to a
shared _stream(url, body); completion-mode endpoints get the messages flattened
into a labelled transcript. Settings' /models fetch moved to
list_endpoint_models() and is shared with /api/chat/config.
Tests: 10 new in tests/test_chat.py (70 total). These deliberately do not stub
resolve_provider_config — the point is to exercise the real BYOK-vs-demo
decision and assert on what the provider actually received: off-whitelist
override pinned, off-whitelist Settings.model pinned, redirected endpoint
pinned, BYOK passed through untouched.
