Fix openapi generated files

The docs still described the retired proxy-side pricing: pricing.Loader,
  pricing_path, MiddlewareDataDir, embedded defaults_pricing.yaml, and the
  symlink-safe Unix loader. Rewrite them for the current design — management
  synthesizes the whole table and ships it in cost_meter's ConfigJSON, so the
  proxy carries no price list and has nothing to reload.

-## Security
-
-### Never fail open
-
-When a security check — access control, an IP restriction, an auth decision —
-hits an error such as an unparseable value, an unavailable lookup, or a state it
-does not recognize, it must **deny**. Never skip the check or allow the request
-through because the check itself failed, and make the `default` and unknown cases
-of a security-related `switch` deny rather than fall through.
-
-### Daemon RPC input is untrusted
-
-The agent runs as root (LocalSystem on Windows), so a daemon RPC crosses a
-privilege boundary: treat every field as untrusted input rather than as something
-the UI or CLI validated on the way in.
-
-When you add or change an RPC, ask what the handler does with caller input while
-running as root. If the answer touches a filesystem path, a URL or host, or a
-privileged state change, it needs a gate **in the handler** — a check in the client
-that normally calls it is not a check at all.
-
-- **A caller-supplied path the daemon opens.** Never `os.Open` it as root.
-  Constrain it, then open it *as the caller* with `ipcauth.OpenOwnedFile`, which
-  opens `O_NOFOLLOW`, requires a regular file, and refuses a file the caller does
-  not own — so a symlink or hardlink aimed at a root-only file is rejected.
-- **A caller-supplied URL or host the daemon fetches.** Restrict the scheme and
-  allow only known hosts for unprivileged callers. Prefer a lexical host
-  allowlist plus TLS verification over "resolve the host, then reject private
-  IPs": the resolve-then-trust pattern has a DNS-rebinding race (public IP at
-  check time, attacker IP at connect time), while a name allowlist has no IP
-  check to race. Never accept `http://` where `https://` is expected.
-- **A privileged state change** (SSH root login, management URL, deregistration)
-  gates on the caller identity from `ipcauth.CallerIdentity(ctx)`.
-
-Caller identity comes from the kernel — `SO_PEERCRED`, `LOCAL_PEERCRED`, or the
-named-pipe client token — and never from an RPC field. When
-`ipcauth.CallerIdentity` reports that it could not determine an identity, **deny**;
-do not fall back to treating the caller as the transport peer.
-
-## Agent conventions
-
-### Three networking modes
-
-Where packets actually flow depends on the mode the agent is running in. The
-three are not interchangeable, so establish which one a change applies to — and
-what it should do in the other two — before you write it.
-
-- **kernel mode** (Linux only): in-kernel WireGuard®. The kernel handles both
-  peer-to-peer and routed traffic, and ACLs are iptables or nftables rules. The
-  client programs kernel facilities but never sees the traffic itself.
-- **userspace mode** (wireguard-go with a TUN): wireguard-go runs in-process. The
-  kernel handles peer-to-peer traffic once it leaves the TUN, while routed traffic
-  — exit nodes and network routes — goes through the userspace forwarder, which
-  terminates the connection and re-establishes it over OS sockets. Used on
-  platforms without kernel WireGuard® or when the user opts out.
-- **netstack mode**: wireguard-go in-process with no TUN and no kernel
-  networking. The forwarder does all routing by stitching userspace sockets, and
-  listeners such as the embedded SSH and DNS servers bind on a gVisor netstack.
-  Used where the process cannot create a TUN device, such as the embedded client
-  (`client/embed/`) and the WASM build.
-
-### The overlay interface is not "WireGuard"
-
-Do not put "WireGuard" in identifiers or comments unless the code is genuinely
-coupled to WireGuard® specifically — a wireguard-go call, a handshake field, a
-kernel WireGuard® netlink attribute. For the interface, the host, peers, or
-traffic in general, say "the NetBird interface", "the interface", or "the overlay".
-Most firewall, routing, and DNS code is transport-agnostic, so a WireGuard®
-reference there is simply inaccurate and rots as the transports change.
-
-### IPv6 is a soft feature
-
-The IPv6 overlay is opt-in dual-stack, and capability can change at runtime. Treat
-it as soft rather than a requirement:
-
-- Gate local v6 paths on the interface accessor (`wgIface.Address().HasIPv6()`),
-  not on raw state fields, and skip the v6 path when the host has no v6 rather
-  than returning an error.
-- Treat an empty or unparseable peer v6 address as "no v6 for that peer" and skip
-  it, keeping the v4 path working.
-- Never let a missing v6 break v4. Fail-closed is for security checks; a
-  capability mismatch skips the v6 work and carries on.
-
-### Environment variables
-
-Name the variable in a constant and parse booleans with `strconv.ParseBool` rather
-than comparing strings inline, so an unexpected value is logged instead of
-silently meaning false:
-
-```go
-const EnvDisableFeature = "NB_DISABLE_FEATURE"
-
-func isDisabledByEnv() bool {
-    val := os.Getenv(EnvDisableFeature)
-    if val == "" {
-        return false
-    }
-    disabled, err := strconv.ParseBool(val)
-    if err != nil {
-        log.Warnf("failed to parse %s: %v", EnvDisableFeature, err)
-        return false
-    }
-    return disabled
-}
-```
-
-### Validating against protocol specs
-
-When a change depends on what a protocol actually mandates, read the specification
-text from the [IETF datatracker](https://datatracker.ietf.org/) rather than a
-summary, and check that you have the current RFC — the widely cited one for a
-protocol is often superseded. Cite the section, not just the document, so a
-reviewer can jump straight to the rule.

-## Type safety
-
-**No bare primitives for domain concepts.** A `string` parameter for an account
-ID next to a `string` parameter for a peer ID is two bugs waiting to happen,
-because the compiler cannot catch the swap. Declare the type once and use it
-throughout, converting only at the boundaries where data enters or leaves —
-protobuf, gRPC, HTTP, an external library.
-
-```go
-type ServiceID string
-type AccountID string
-
-// Internal: typed all the way through
-func (r *Router) RemoveRoute(host SNIHost, svcID ServiceID) { ... }
-
-// Proto boundary: convert once, on the way in and on the way out
-svcID := ServiceID(mapping.GetId())
-req.ServiceId = string(svcID)
-```
-
-- **IP addresses are `netip.Addr`**, not `string` and not `net.IP`. Parse at the
-  boundary and pass the typed value inward.
-- **Always `Unmap()`** after parsing an address, after converting from `net.IP`,
-  and after extracting one from `RemoteAddr()`. This normalizes a v4-mapped v6
-  address (`::ffff:10.1.2.3`) to plain v4 so IPv4 rules match it. A stored or
-  compared mapped address silently fails to match those rules.
-- **Ports are `uint16`** internally; use `int` only where a library forces it and
-  convert immediately.
-- **Enums are a typed string with constants**, so the valid set is discoverable
-  and a typo fails to compile.
-- **Map keys follow the same rule**, and must be a real type (`type ServiceID
-  string`) rather than an alias (`type serviceID = string`) — an alias silently
-  accepts bare strings.
-
-## Concurrency and lifecycle
-
-Beyond the mutex hygiene in the principles above, check for these failure
-modes.
-
-- **Never read a struct field inside a goroutine** when another goroutine may nil
-  or reassign it. Pass the value as a parameter, or capture it into a local before
-  launching. This matters most when `Stop()` nils a field without waiting for the
-  goroutine to finish.
-
-  ```go
-  go func(ifaceName string) {   // good: passed in, cannot be nilled underneath
-      m.Start(ctx, ifaceName)
-  }(iface.Name())
-  ```
-
-- **Never wait on a channel while holding a lock the sender needs.** Copy what you
-  need out from under the lock, release it, then wait.
-
-  ```go
-  func (m *Manager) Stop() {
-      m.mu.Lock()
-      cancel, done := m.cancel, m.done
-      m.mu.Unlock()
-      if cancel != nil {
-          cancel()
-          <-done
-      }
-  }
-  ```
-
-- **`Stop`/`Close` must be idempotent** — guard on an already-stopped flag or a
-  nil cancel — and must release the state they guarded. Clear maps and caches;
-  a cancelled goroutine holding a live map still pins that memory. Note that a
-  nil map only panics on writes; reads and iteration behave like an empty map,
-  so where post-close use must be rejected, check the stopped flag explicitly.
-- **Publish coupled state only after every fallible step succeeds.** When several
-  fields form an invariant, build them into locals and assign them to the receiver
-  at the end. Assigning as you go leaves the object half-initialized when a later
-  step fails, so a readiness predicate reports ready while a coupled field is nil.
-  If an earlier step already had an external side effect — a created chain, an
-  opened handle, an inserted rule — roll it back before returning the error.
-- **Clean up what you own on constructor error paths.** Once a constructor has
-  started something, every later error path must undo it: cancel a goroutine and
-  wait for it to exit, stop a ticker, close a watcher. The object is never
-  returned, so its `Close` will never run.
-- **A failed `Start` must undo everything it started.** When a component brings up
-  several subsystems in sequence — connection manager, watchers, routing, DNS,
-  flow, persisted state — a failure partway through has to tear down the ones
-  already running, not just close the handle the error came from. Put the
-  already-started guard *before* that teardown path, so a rejected second `Start`
-  cannot dismantle the one that is running.

+**The proxy carries no price list.** Management synthesizes the entire pricing
+table and ships it inside `cost_meter`'s `ConfigJSON`, so a price change reaches
+the proxies as an ordinary mapping push — the chain rebuild installs a fresh
+table and there is nothing to reload on the proxy side.

+**Two tiers, resolved per request on the proxy** (`synthesizer_pricing.go:22-35`):
+
+- `pricing.defaults` — surface (`openai`/`anthropic`/`bedrock`) → normalized model
+  id → rates. The **full** default table ships to every account: it is small
+  (~10 KB) and it is what keeps gateway-style providers (which enumerate no
+  models, so they claim every model) priced.
+- `pricing.providers` — provider **record** id → normalized model id → rates,
+  matched against the `llm.resolved_provider_id` the router stamps. Entries are
+  **fully materialized here**, at synth time: `materializeEntry` starts from the
+  default entry for that model so cache rates the operator didn't state are
+  inherited, overlays operator `input`/`output` verbatim (**including an explicit
+  0**, which prices a self-hosted or internal endpoint as free rather than
+  silently reverting to list price), and overlays cache-rate **pointers only when
+  non-nil** — `nil` means "inherit the default", an explicit `0` means "no
+  discount, bill this bucket at the input rate". The proxy therefore does two map
+  lookups and no merging.
+
+Same orphan rule as the router: a provider no enabled policy authorises is
+unreachable, so its prices aren't shipped. Model ids are normalized with the
+**same** functions the request parser uses (`NormalizeBedrockModel` /
+`NormalizeVertexModel`), which is what makes the per-record lookup key compare
+equal to the `llm.model` the proxy meters. Post-normalization duplicates resolve
+first-occurrence-wins, matching the routing dedup order.
+
+**`AgentNetwork.PricingDefaultsFile`** (`config.go:190-207`) lets an operator
+replace default rates without a rebuild. Schema is `surface → model → rates`
+(`input_per_1k`, `output_per_1k`, and optional `cached_input_per_1k` /
+`cache_read_per_1k` / `cache_creation_per_1k`). Semantics:
+
+- A **relative** path resolves against `<Datadir>`, so a bare filename lands
+  alongside the store. Empty config probes `<Datadir>/defaults_llm_pricing.yaml`.
+- An **explicitly configured** path is *required to load*: a typo or malformed
+  file fails startup, because the operator believes those rates are live. The
+  conventional probe is optional — an absent file just serves compiled-in
+  defaults, and the path stays watched in case it appears later.
+- File entries **replace** the compiled-in entry for the same (surface, model)
+  **whole** — they are not field-merged, so an entry must repeat the cache rates
+  it wants to keep. Everything the file doesn't mention keeps built-in rates.
+- Unknown YAML fields are rejected (`KnownFields(true)`) and every rate must be
+  finite and non-negative — the same constraints the HTTP API enforces on
+  operator per-provider prices.
+- Reload is an mtime poll (`ReloadInterval`, 1 min) and is **lenient at runtime**:
+  a parse error keeps the previous table, a deleted file reverts to compiled-in
+  defaults. A mid-edit save can never take pricing down.
+
+The live table feeds **both** consumers, which is what keeps them consistent: the
+synthesizer (what proxies actually bill with) and `GET /api/agent-network/catalog`
+via `applyDefaultPricing` (what the dashboard's model-row prices prefill with).
+`defaults_llm_pricing.example.yaml` is generated from the compiled-in table
+(`go generate ./management/internals/modules/agentnetwork/pricing`) and
+golden-tested, so operators start from a file matching the built-in rates exactly.

+- **Per-provider prices are materialized at synth time, not merged on the proxy** (`synthesizer_pricing.go:114-131`). A per-record entry is always complete, so the proxy's lookup is per-record-then-defaults with no field-level fallback between tiers.

 - **`TestSynthesizeServices_HappyPath` was updated:** request-parser config moved from `{}` to `{"capture_prompt":false}` (`synthesizer_test.go:174`). External snapshot tests against synth output need updating.
 - **`MergedGuardrails` retains zeroed `TokenLimits`/`Budget`/`Retention`** even though `Policy.Limits` carries the real values now; `llm_limit_check` is the authoritative enforcement. Comment at `synthesizer.go:940-948` calls this out.
+- **`cost_meter`'s `pricing` block is version-skew-safe in both directions.** A proxy predating config-delivered pricing ignores the field as unknown JSON (it previously priced from its own embedded table, so it keeps billing — at its own rates, which is the skew to be aware of during a rolling upgrade). A current proxy paired with old management sees no `pricing` block, logs one warning at chain-build time, and records `cost.skipped=unknown_model` — token counting and cap enforcement are unaffected, only the USD annotation goes to $0.
 
 ### Performance
 
 - **`SynthesizeServices` runs on every controller tick / mutation reconcile.** Cost: 4 store reads + optional per-provider keypair backfill. Sort + index + merge are O(N log N) / O(P × G); dominant cost is JSON marshalling. No nested loops escape these dimensions.
+- **The full default pricing table is marshalled into every account's `cost_meter` config on every synth** (~10 KB serialized). This is a deliberate trade: it keeps gateway-style providers priced for every catalog model, and it is the largest single contributor to the synth JSON. `DefaultTable()` itself is a pointer load (or a `sync.Once`-built map) — the cost is the marshal, not the build.
 - **`reconcile.diffMappings` is O(N + M)** with N=M=1 per account today — effectively constant.
 - **`SynthesizeServicesForCluster`** (`synthesizer.go:71`) walks every account on a cluster; per-account failures are **swallowed** (`synthesizer.go:91-93`) so a single misconfigured account doesn't drop the cluster. Runs per proxy reconnect.

+   arrive fully materialized (management folds default cache rates in at synth
+   time), so there is no merging here. Absent metadata — no router in the chain
+   — skips this tier.
+2. **Surface defaults** — the catalog-derived table keyed by `llm.provider`
+   (`openai`/`anthropic`/`bedrock`). This is also what prices gateway-style
+   providers, which enumerate no models and therefore get no per-record entry.
+
+**Backward compatibility:** a config with no `pricing` block means management
+predates config-delivered pricing. The factory logs one warning at build time
+and the instance records `cost.skipped=unknown_model` ($0) for every request
+rather than falling back to a stale built-in price list

+3. **Management is the only source of rates.** `Table` has no constructor that

+   prices at all* (`cost_meter` records `cost.skipped=unknown_model`, $0) —

-4. **Loader path validation.** `resolveMiddlewareDataPath`

-   `TestNewLoader_PathValidation`, `TestNewLoader_PathValidation_Extended`,
-   `TestNewLoader_SymlinkOutsideBaseDirRejected`, `TestNewLoader_SymlinkRejected`.
+4. **Tables are immutable once built.** `Table.entries` is written only in
+   `NewEntries` and never mutated afterwards, and `cost_meter`'s `perRecord`
+   map is likewise build-time-only
+   ([pricing.go:47–52](../../../proxy/internal/llm/pricing/pricing.go)). This
+   is what makes the no-reload design safe: a price change arrives as a mapping
+   push that builds a new middleware instance over a new table, so concurrent
+   readers can't observe a half-updated price list and no atomic swap or lock
+   is needed on the hot path.
 
-5. **Unix loader symlink safety.** `O_NOFOLLOW` on open, `f.Stat()` on the
-   open descriptor (never re-stat by path), `info.Mode().IsRegular()` check,
-   `io.LimitReader(f, maxPricingBytes+1)` with a final size assertion
-   ([pricing_unix.go:25–57](../../../proxy/internal/llm/pricing/pricing_unix.go)).
-   A mid-read symlink swap is detected because the fstat is on the original
-   fd. Test: `TestNewLoader_RejectsOversizedFile_FixesM4`.
+5. **Rate validation happens at chain-build time, not per request.**
+   `NewEntries` rejects negative, NaN, and ±Inf rates field by field
+   ([pricing.go:60–83](../../../proxy/internal/llm/pricing/pricing.go)), naming
+   the offending surface/model/field in the error. Management enforces the same
+   constraints at its API boundary and in its YAML parser, so this is
+   defense-in-depth — but it means a corrupt push fails loudly at build instead
+   of producing negative costs on live traffic. Test:
+   `TestNewTable_ValidatesRates`.
 
-6. **`yaml.NewDecoder(...).KnownFields(true)`**
-   ([pricing.go:397–398](../../../proxy/internal/llm/pricing/pricing.go))
-   rejects YAML files that carry fields not in the schema. A typo in an
-   operator override file fails loud instead of silently zeroing rates.
+6. **New rates must be added to `Entry`, `EntryJSON`, *and* management's
+   `pricing.Entry` together.** `NewEntries` converts by direct struct
+   conversion `Entry(e)`
+   ([pricing.go:76–78](../../../proxy/internal/llm/pricing/pricing.go)), which
+   only compiles while the two structs stay field-identical — so the proxy half
+   is compiler-enforced. The management half is not: a rate added there but not
+   here unmarshals into nothing and prices that bucket at `InputPer1K`.
