The provider type already lives authoritatively in ai_providers.type,
reachable on every active row through ai_provider_id, which the
chat_model_configs_ai_provider_required_when_active CHECK makes
mandatory. The stored provider string was a denormalized copy the system
kept in sync with a startup backfill and no longer needs.
Every surface now derives provider type from the linked ai_providers
row. Telemetry is the one exception: it keeps emitting provider, now
sourced from ai_providers.type via a JOIN, so the BigQuery column and the
Nexus dashboards that read it are unaffected. The experimental HTTP/SDK
response drops provider and makes ai_provider_id required, since those
endpoints return only active configs; consumers resolve provider type
from ai_provider_id and the AI providers listing.
This ships in a single release with no compatibility window: production
reads the table via SELECT *, so a pre-drop binary fails config reads the
moment the column is gone. Operators must scale to zero before upgrading,
and there is no rollback.
Closes CODAGT-599
This PR adds logging when the chat runner retries and exits because of
an error. It also adds a 15-minute task timeout to ensure that stuck
tasks do not hang forever.
