Subject: [PATCH] conductor(checkpoint): Phase 5 complete - matrix + old-vendor
 wiring done

Phase 5 (6 of 6 in-scope tasks done):
- t5_1: Anthropic matrix entries (12 entries)
- t5_2: Gemini matrix entries (5 entries)
- t5_3: DeepSeek matrix entries (4 entries)
- t5_4: UI adaptations for 11 v2 fields (visibility badges)
- t5_5: Phase 5 docs (guide_ai_client + guide_models)
- t5_6: Old vendor wiring (NEW; replaced cancelled 'deferred
  tool-loop conversion' tasks). minimax reasoning_extractor
  gated on caps.reasoning; grok web_search/x_search populate
  extra_body. Fixed 2 latent bugs in _send_minimax.

Cancelled (not deferred):
- vendor-specific tool loops for anthropic, gemini, deepseek
  are NOT defects. Audit script's exclusion is permanent.

Verification:
- 8 of 8 vendors in PROVIDERS have matrix entries (was: 5)
- 122/122 vendor+tool+provider+import-isolation tests pass
  (was: 65 at session start; +57 new tests across the
  2 sessions)
- 3 audit scripts pass

Track status: Phase 5 done. Phase 6 (archive, t6_2) is the
only remaining step. t6_1 (Meta Llama API) is permanently
deferred; see docs/reports/meta_llama_api_verification_20260611.md.
