effort_routing.rs

//! Per-turn effort routing (#1148, opt-in dynamic thinking budget).
//!
//! Unlike the static `effort.rs` which applies a constant reasoning level
//! across all turns (for cache stability), this module classifies each turn
//! and adjusts thinking effort dynamically.
//!
//! **Opt-in only** (`proxy.effort_routing = true`). When disabled, the static
//! `effort.rs` path remains the sole controller. When enabled, this module
//! overrides the static level with a per-turn classification.
//!
//! ## Cache stability tradeoff
//!
//! Provider prompt caches (Anthropic `cache_control`, OpenAI prefix caching)
//! break when reasoning parameters change. This module accepts that tradeoff
//! because:
//! 1. Output tokens on Opus-class models cost **5x** input tokens — savings
//!    from reduced thinking often exceed the cache-miss penalty.
//! 2. Routine turns (file reads, passing tests) generate disproportionate
//!    thinking waste for trivial tool-result acknowledgements.
//! 3. The module uses a **two-level** strategy (not N levels) to minimize cache
//!    key diversity: `routine` or `full` — only two cache prefixes to warm.
//!
//! ## Classification
//!
//! A turn is classified as **routine** when the last assistant message was a
//! tool call and the tool result indicates success on a non-complex operation:
//! - File read (tool_use with `ctx_read`, `read_file`, `Read`)
//! - Successful shell command (exit_code == 0, no error indicators)
//! - Search results (grep/glob/find)
//! - Status checks (git status, test passing)
//!
//! A turn is classified as **full** (keep maximum thinking) when:
//! - The user sent a new message (requires understanding intent)
//! - The tool result contains errors/failures
//! - Multiple tool results arrived (complex multi-step)
//! - The content is architecturally complex (refactoring, debugging)
