Thread title generation runs inside the agent graph (aafter_model), and it
built its configured model inline. create_chat_model can read local CLI
credentials while it is constructed (Codex auth.json, Claude Code credential
files), so the first turn of every new thread read them on the shared loop
and other requests waited for it.
Build the provider through run_assembly, the dedicated assembly pool the
one-shot helpers, skill moderation, the goal evaluator and start_run already
use. Inference still awaits on the loop, and the sync path is unchanged.
A Blockbuster regression builds the real Codex provider: on main the gate
rejects the credential read, the broad fallback swallows it, and the local
fallback title replaces the model's title; with the change the provider is
constructed on a worker thread and the model's title is kept.
