With no production instance yet, there is no reason to carry two ways
of configuring the agent. Every environment variable that duplicated a
config key is gone; the environment now supplies only the secrets the
file references by ${…}, plus NISSE_CONFIG and NISSE_ENV to find the
files.
- AgentConfig loads from a file (load, from_file) or a parsed tree
(from_tree, for tests); a missing file is an error naming the example
- The from_env constructors on LiteLLMClient, AnthropicPassthroughClient,
GiteaClient, MatrixConfig and RoleMap are removed, with the env
reading for max output tokens; clients take their settings from config
- The live integration tests share a committed agent config,
tests/integration/nisse-test.yaml, aimed at test resources, and one
conftest that loads it and builds clients. NISSE_LIVE_PLANNER_MODEL
becomes its planner role; NISSE_CAPABILITY_MODELS stays as a per-run
switch
- A missing secret now fails the live tests instead of skipping them
- CI passes only the three tokens
- .env.example is secrets only; spec A5 says config comes from the file

Skipping now keys solely on NISSE_LLM_BASE_URL and
NISSE_MATRIX_HOMESERVER: if the sentinel is set, the live path is
expected to work and any other missing variable is an assertion
failure naming it, not a silent skip. A misnamed or misplaced CI
secret previously produced a green run with no live coverage.

PR 2 of the steps-3/4 plan.
- llm.py: LLMClient protocol — complete(events, tools, model) ->
canonical events — present from the first real LLM call.
LiteLLMClient renders requests via the A10 renderer, targets the
proxy's OpenAI-compatible route, and maps provider tool-call IDs
to locally-minted canonical IDs at the boundary
- RoleMap (A11): executor/planner/delegate/consultant resolved from
env; pinned() returns the mapping to record at task start
- Config strictly from env: NISSE_LLM_BASE_URL, NISSE_LLM_TOKEN;
envfile.py is a minimal .env loader where real env wins; .env now
gitignored with a committed .env.example documenting all variables
(Matrix ones included for the upcoming transport PR)
- Live smoke test against the proxy is integration-marked and skips
without credentials — CI stays credential-free per operator
decision; the test runs locally once .env exists
- httpx added as nisse-dev's HTTP client
