Extends the #215 abstraction:
- OpenAICompatibleLLMProvider / OpenAICompatibleEmbeddingProvider — one impl (via
the official openai SDK) covers OpenAI, xAI (api.x.ai/v1), Ollama
(…:11434/v1), OpenRouter, etc.; they differ only by base_url, key, and model.
- Registry factory: build_llm_providers() / build_embedding_providers() return
every provider whose credentials are configured, so you can run several
concurrently. get_llm_provider(name)/get_embedding_provider(name) select by
name, falling back to default_*_provider, then Null.
- Per-provider env config (ANTHROPIC_*, OPENAI_*, XAI_*, OLLAMA_*) +
DEFAULT_LLM_PROVIDER / DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_PROVIDER; documented in .env.example.
Defaults keep AI off (empty registry).
Embeddings now have real backends (OpenAI/Ollama), still separate from the LLM
since Anthropic offers no embeddings endpoint. Tests cover multi-provider
selection, default resolution, disabled-without-credentials, and null fail-loud.
Full suite 87 passed.
Relates to #215.

Adds the vendor-agnostic seam the AI assistant + match-ranking plug into:
- LLMProvider / EmbeddingProvider ABCs (base.py). LLM and embeddings are
SEPARATE abstractions — Anthropic has no embeddings endpoint, so each is
configured independently and either can be off.
- NullLLMProvider / NullEmbeddingProvider — the default; fail loud with a clear
"not configured" error so AI-off deployments don't silently no-op.
- AnthropicLLMProvider — first concrete LLM impl, via the official anthropic SDK
(default model claude-opus-4-8). A local provider (e.g. Ollama) would be
another subclass of the same interface.
- Factory in deps.py (get_llm_provider / get_embedding_provider) selects by
env (MODEL_PROVIDER / EMBEDDING_PROVIDER); documented in .env.example.
Providers are read-only text/vector producers — they never touch the DB, so the
"AI never writes autonomously" invariant (CLAUDE.md #1) holds; writes will go
through ChangeProposal (#214).
Tests: provider selection (null default, anthropic when keyed, fallback without
key) + null providers raise. 81 passed.
Closes#215
