The arrival of non-Anthropic models made a latent bug observable: the
delegate's client was hardcoded to the Anthropic passthrough, so
pointing NISSE_ROLE_DELEGATE at gpt-6-astra or a local model would
have sent Anthropic-shaped /v1/messages bodies to something that does
not speak them. A5 promises the frontier tier is swappable "as a
configuration change, not a refactor", and it was not.
select_client now picks the route from the model: the vendor-native
adapter where one exists, LiteLLM's normalization otherwise — which is
exactly what A13 prescribes for a vendor whose renderer adapter has
not been written, pending validation against the A16 eval set.
Also adds the capability matrix Part H asks for. It says the
thresholds that depend on local capability — A12's failure count,
A14's consult budget, A15's manifest size — must be tuned "on the real
hardware", and that needs measurement rather than reputation. The
harness probes each model for the things that actually break: whether
it calls a tool at all, whether the plan it submits has substance
(llama3.2 emitted "{"), whether it can consume its own tool result,
and whether prompt-level JSON holds. Opt in with
NISSE_CAPABILITY_MODELS; it spends real tokens across several models.

Nisse
Two self-hosted AI agents sharing a common library, named for the Nordic farm spirit that keeps the place running overnight and expects to be treated well in return.
| Package | Role |
|---|---|
nisse-core/ |
Shared library both agents sit on (Part A) |
nisse-dev/ |
Dev Agent — plans and implements software projects (Part B) |
nisse-ops/ |
Sysadmin Agent — operates infrastructure (Part C) |
One repository, three packages. The library does not exist as code yet: it is
extracted from nisse-dev once that agent works (build-order step 10), as a
package split within this tree.
Architecture
The system-level specification lives at
docs/Architecture-Build-Spec.md. It covers the
shared library, both agents, the supporting services, the build order, and the
remaining open decisions.
