//! Model affinity as a single SDK component.
//!
//! [`AffinityRouter`] retains the first model chosen for a request's stable identity and
//! forces that model on later requests sharing the identity. It is one object that plays
//! both SDK roles, so registering it as a processor and a classifier cannot drift apart:
//!
//! - As a [`Processor`] it *writes* the assignment: [`Event::Decision`] carries the request
//!   whose chosen model is retained, with the first assignment for an identity winning.
//! - As a [`Classifier`] it *reads* the assignment: it scores the retained model with
//!   confidence `1.0`, or returns no scores to abstain.
//!
//! Identity is derived from correlation metadata: by default, a request is keyed by its
//! session, and a sub-agent is keyed more finely by `session + agent` — a subset of its
//! session. [`AffinityRouter::for_subagents`] narrows affinity to explicitly identified
//! child agents, leaving root traffic to later classifiers on every turn.
