release api/v1.2.0

Webber through the boilerroom wrapper: flavor-adaptive tool_choice,
session identity at rank 20, and the sanitized-client wiring fix
that makes the choke point real.

+at the nearest `.git/` ancestor, which is this repo.
 
-- **`pql` is not on the non-interactive `PATH`** — use `/home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql`.
-- **`--vault /mnt/media/Projects` is mandatory.** pql anchors a vault at the nearest `.git/`
-  ancestor, and this repo is one, so a bare call resolves to *this repo's* empty vault. Reads
-  return nothing; a **write** creates a stray vault and starts ticket ids at T-1, colliding
-  with the real ones.
+```bash
+/home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql ticket list        # this repo's open work
+/home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql plan whatsnext     # next unblocked item, with context
+/home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql decisions list     # this repo's own decisions
+```
+
+Stack-level decisions that constrain this service live in the **workspace** vault and need the
+flag:
 
 ```bash
-/home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql --vault /mnt/media/Projects ticket list
-/home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql --vault /mnt/media/Projects plan whatsnext
 /home/jpmschweitzer/.local/bin/pql --vault /mnt/media/Projects decisions list --domain webber
 ```
 
+Note `ticket new --decision D-N` resolves ids within **one** vault, so a ticket here cannot link
+to a workspace decision. Cite the id in the ticket body instead.
+
 Do not add a TODO section to a markdown file.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.2.0] - 2026-09-13
+
+### Added
+
+- Backend adaptation at the provider choke point (workspace T-137):
+  the local backend's flavor is probed once — the boilerroom wrapper
+  names itself on `/health`, a bare llama-server serves `/props`,
+  Ollama answers neither — and every completion adapts. The agents'
+  `tool_choice: "required"` survives only on Ollama, where it is a
+  useful advisory nudge; llama-server enforces it per request, which
+  through the wrapper is an unbreakable tool loop. Through the wrapper
+  every completion carries webber's session identity —
+  `session: webber`, `eviction_order: 20` per the decided ranking
+  (tatlock phases 40, experts 35, librarian 30; lower parks sooner),
+  configurable via `BACKEND_SESSION_NAME`/`BACKEND_SESSION_RANK` —
+  and the wrapper's `balancing`/`compaction_due` body signals are
+  logged. A transport failure during the probe answers "ollama"
+  without caching, so a backend that was down at first call is
+  re-probed rather than misclassified forever.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The sanitized OpenAI client was never used: the provider assigned
+  `self._openai_client`, an attribute nobody reads —
+  `OllamaProvider.client` serves `self._client`. Every completion
+  bypassed the null-content sanitizer since the class was introduced;
+  exposed 2026-09-13 when the wrapper 503'd a session-less request
+  that the choke point should have named. The sanitized client now
+  goes through the constructor's official `openai_client` parameter,
+  and a wiring test pins `provider.client` to the sanitized type.
+
+## [1.1.0] - 2026-08-11
+
+### Added
+- `webber version` command. It was implemented and imported but never registered, so the
+  subcommand did not exist; the fuller output includes the resolved Ollama URL and model.
+
+### Fixed
+- The Ollama `content: null` sanitiser raised `AttributeError` on first use. It looked up the
+  parent client's chat getter via `.fget`, and openai now exposes `chat` as a
+  `cached_property`. Any agent request would have failed before reaching the model.
+
 ### Changed
 - Default `OLLAMA_AGENT_MODEL` is now `gemma4:e2b` instead of `mistral-nemo-large:latest`, so a deployment without an explicit override no longer exhausts shared GPU memory
+- `BaseAgent` is generic over its context type and `run_stream` is typed as
+  `AsyncIterator[str | StreamEvent]`, matching what callers already receive.
