- LLMClient Protocol for provider-agnostic inference
- VLLMClient for OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions API
- LLM client factory with provider routing (ollama/vllm)
- VLLMConfig with VLLM_* environment variable loading
- Updated extractor worker with health check and provider switching
- Updated event classifier to use LLMClient protocol
- Helm values for vLLM configuration
- 18 unit tests + 6 property-based tests
- Full backward compatibility preserved
- Migration 026 and OllamaConfig now default to qwen3.5:9b instead of
llama3.1:8b. Existing deployments keep their current model (qwen3.5:9b-fast)
since the migration uses WHERE NOT EXISTS on slug.
- Event classifier system prompt expanded with macro-vs-company filtering:
explicitly instructs the model to NOT classify single-company news
(lawsuits, earnings, management changes, debt crises) as macro events.
Sets severity=low and confidence<0.3 for company-specific articles.
Reserves 'critical' severity for multi-country/global market events.
Prevents over-tagging event_types by requiring direct description.
- Updated test_system_prompt_is_concise threshold to accommodate the
expanded prompt (300 → 1000 chars).
