* refactor(inference): remove managed inference routes

Closes #3172

Remove the inference route control plane, inference.local data path, built-in router crate, and SDK surface. Move inference workloads to explicitly imported provider profiles and native endpoints, with migration cleanup and updated tests and documentation.

* fix(policy): preserve alternate upstream isolation

Restore the provider policy activation guard so legacy OpenAI and Anthropic providers configured for alternate base URLs do not grant egress to the built-in public vendor endpoints.

openshell-providers

Provider discovery and normalization for credentials that sandboxes need at runtime.

The gateway persists provider records. The sandbox supervisor fetches resolved provider environment from the gateway and injects credentials into agent child processes. This crate keeps provider-specific discovery and normalization logic out of the CLI and gateway control flow.

Responsibilities

  • Discover local credentials from environment variables and known config files.
  • Normalize discovered data into provider records.
  • Keep provider-specific parsing rules in provider modules.
  • Avoid logging credential values.

Non-Responsibilities

  • Persisting provider records.
  • Authorizing provider CRUD operations.
  • Injecting credentials into sandbox child processes.
  • Routing inference requests.

Those are owned by the gateway, sandbox supervisor, and router.

Security Notes

Provider data often contains API keys, bearer tokens, or local account configuration. Discovery code should return structured values without printing or tracing secrets. Callers that display provider data must redact sensitive fields by default.
