# UC-002 — Connect a Model or Coding Agent

**Primary actor:** Operator or integrator  
**Goal:** Use a hosted provider, local OpenAI-compatible model, or connected coding-agent CLI as the reasoning backbone.

## Main Flow

1. User selects/configures a provider or local agent.
2. System resolves provider/model capabilities and credentials.
3. Requests are routed with timeout and fallback behavior.
4. Tool-capable orchestration consumes responses and records outcomes.

**Implementation coverage:** `src/llm/`, `src/config/`, `src/agent/`, provider-model registry, setup and fallback tests.
