live-provider-smoke

What problem does it solve?

Smoke-test anie end-to-end against a live LLM provider from a non-interactive agent session. Use when you need to verify the provider/agent/streaming pipeline works after changes, confirm an API key is wired up correctly, or when exit-criteria include manual smoke against a real response. Covers the one-shot print mode, recommended free-tier models on OpenRouter, rate-limit fallback pattern, and the limits of non-TUI verification.

Core Features & Use Cases

• One-shot print mode smoke testing to exercise the full agent loop without a TUI.
• Validate provider integration and model access against real, live providers (e.g., OpenRouter).
• Demonstrate end-to-end reliability including provider resolution, request handling, and streaming responses.
• Use case: confirm that a new provider or model wiring works before enabling interactive mode.

Quick Start

Run a one-shot smoke test against a live provider to validate the end-to-end pipeline in non-interactive mode.
