Switchyard v0.3.0 — multi-provider harness

The Switchyard rebrand brings a shared terminal interface to DeepSeek, GLM,
Anthropic Claude, and OpenAI GPT, plus native Codex and Claude Code connections.

Added

• Provider and model selection during startup, live model catalogs, and local
  /commands, /model, /provider, /usage, and /session commands.
• API model pricing per million tokens, with cheapest-example sorting and
  explicit unknown prices. Reference rates checked September 21, 2026.
• Native Codex and Claude Code login, streaming, permissions, and session resume.
• A terminal renderer with styled messages, a composer, resize handling,
  scrolling, queued input, and expandable reasoning and tool results.
• Provider-aware transports, automatic caching, balance handling, update checks,
  and Docker tooling.

Changed

• switchyard is the main command and Windows executable. Existing d, dsw,
  dsd, and dswait commands remain available.
• Context compaction replaces the older prefix, retains 15 complete tool-safe
  turns, and uses a deterministic fallback when summarization fails.
• Provider-specific compaction requests and session metadata support API model
  changes while preserving tool-call/result pairs.
• Installer and desktop window branding now use Switchyard.

Compatibility and limits

• The legacy npm package identifier and configuration/session directories remain
  unchanged so existing installs and saved sessions keep working.
• Native Codex/Claude Code sessions resume within their own engine. Their tools
  and compaction are managed by that engine; cross-engine session migration and
  native-worker integration with Switchyard coordination are not yet supported.
• Price examples are references, not spending caps. Model availability and
  provider billing modifiers still apply.
• Windows standalone binaries provide CLI functionality. Electron UI requires
  the source installation and its dependencies.

Validation: syntax checks and 11 focused test suites passed; all five Windows executables passed --help smoke tests.
