reasoningEffort (low|medium|high) is now the single human-facing control
for model deliberation. Backends that speak a discrete level (OpenAI,
OpenRouter, Copilot, Gemini, Kiro) send it verbatim; Anthropic, which
needs a numeric budget, translates via documented thresholds
(low=4096, medium=8192, high=16384). thinkingBudget remains an advanced
explicit override that wins when set.
- Add EffortLow/Medium/High, threshold consts, ValidReasoningEffort,
EffortThinkingBudget, and GenerationParams.ResolvedThinkingBudget.
- Anthropic: derive budget from effort, grow max_tokens above the budget
(Anthropic requires budget < max_tokens), and force temperature=1 when
thinking is enabled (both are Anthropic requirements).
- Validate reasoningEffort at config load so typos fail loudly instead
of silently no-opping.
- theo: drop explicit thinkingBudget/inflated maxTokens; reasoningEffort
high now implies the 16384 budget.
- Document thresholds and per-backend behavior in data/agents/README.md;
fix stale autoLoad/maxSteps references.
- Add unit tests for the mapping and Anthropic thinking behavior.
