 API routes follow a consistent pattern: `Route → CORS preflight → Zod body validation → Optional auth (extractApiKey/isValidApiKey) → API key policy enforcement → Handler delegation (open-sse)`. No global Next.js middleware — interception is route-specific.
 
-**Combo routing** (`open-sse/services/combo.ts`): 17 strategies (priority, weighted, fill-first, round-robin, P2C, random, least-used, cost-optimized, reset-aware, reset-window, headroom, strict-random, auto, lkgp, context-optimized, context-relay, fusion). Each target calls `handleSingleModel()` which wraps `handleChatCore()` with per-target error handling and circuit breaker checks. The `fusion` strategy is the exception: it fans out to a panel of models in parallel, then a judge model synthesizes one final answer (`open-sse/services/fusion.ts`). See `docs/routing/AUTO-COMBO.md` for the 12-factor Auto-Combo scoring + the full strategy table and `docs/architecture/RESILIENCE_GUIDE.md` for the 3 resilience layers.

 21. **Release-freeze — the FROZEN release branch belongs to the release captain; development does NOT stop (parallel-cycle model, 2026-07-04).** `/generate-release` opens a marker issue labeled `release-freeze` at the start of reconciliation (Phase 0a), **immediately cuts the next cycle's branch `release/vX+1` from the frozen tip (Phase 0a.0b — bump + living release PR + re-home of open PRs)**, and closes the freeze once the release PR squash-merges to `main`. Before merging **any** PR, every campaign workflow (`/review-issues`, `/review-prs`, `/implement-features`, `/green-prs`, `/port-upstream-*`) **MUST** check `gh issue list --repo diegosouzapw/OmniRoute --label release-freeze --state open` — if a freeze is active: **NEVER merge into the frozen `release/vX.Y.Z` named in the freeze title**; instead resolve the ACTIVE development branch (the **highest** `release/v*` by semver — normally `release/vX+1`, announced in a freeze-issue comment) and **retarget the PR there** (`gh pr edit <N> --base release/vX+1`, then VERIFY with `gh pr view <N> --json baseRefName` — the edit fails silently) and merge normally. **HOLD only when the highest release/v\* branch IS the frozen one** (the short window before 0a.0b completes, or a pre-parallel-cycle release) — in that case leave the PR ready and open, tell the operator, and resume when the next branch appears or the freeze lifts. The just-shipped fixes reach `release/vX+1` via the Phase 5 sync-back (`scripts/release/sync-next-cycle.mjs`); do not try to sync mid-release. This is a **coordination signal, not a permission lock**: the release captain and the campaign sessions share the `diegosouzapw` identity, so a GitHub branch-protection lock cannot distinguish them — only this honored marker prevents the mid-release commit races that forced full CHANGELOG re-reconciliation in v3.8.40/v3.8.41 (a parallel campaign advanced `release/vX.Y.Z` by 34 commits mid-run). The release captain's own reconciliation/cycle-open pushes are exempt — they _are_ the release. Fixes that must land during a freeze (a homologation finding) follow the post-merge read-only rule: land on `main` first via `fix/release-vX.Y.Z-*`. **⛔ ONLY `/generate-release` may raise a release-freeze, and ONLY at its Phase 0a (start of generating a new version) — lifted at Phase 12c after the squash-merge to `main`.** No campaign, session, or agent may open a `release-freeze` marker at any other time — a freeze is **never** a mid-development coordination tool. If a session ever believes a freeze is genuinely, unavoidably necessary outside the `/generate-release` flow, it **MUST first ask the operator (`diegosouzapw`) in chat, explicitly alert "estou criando um freeze" and get an explicit yes** — never open, extend, or re-open a `release-freeze` autonomously. Conversely, do **not** close/lift an active `/generate-release` freeze to unblock campaign merges: it protects the captain's single clean CI run and auto-lifts at Phase 12c — closing it early re-triggers the exact commit race it prevents. Verify a freeze is legitimate before acting on it: an open `release-freeze` whose title/body references an **OPEN** release PR (`gh pr view <N> --json state`) is the authorized captain freeze — hold, don't touch.
 22. **Cross-session safety — this repo is worked by MANY parallel sessions/agents at once; never step on another's in-flight work.** Two absolute bans, both recurring incidents (this rule exists because they keep happening):
     - **(a) Never `git stash` / `git stash pop` — ANYWHERE in this repo, including inside an isolated worktree, and including inside any subagent you dispatch.** `git stash` operates on the **shared repository object store**, not the per-worktree working tree — so a stash pushed or popped in one session can silently clobber or resurrect another parallel session's uncommitted changes. This is not hypothetical: 2026-07-02 a `#5923` quotaCache change leaked into the unrelated `#2296` worktree via a global `stash pop`, and the same class reincided through a **subagent**. To compare working changes against a base ref **without** stashing, use `git show <ref>:<path>` or `git diff <ref> -- <path>`; to confirm a typecheck/lint error is pre-existing on the base, inspect the base ref directly (`git show origin/release/vX.Y.Z:<path>`) — never stash your tree away to "get it clean". **Put this ban verbatim in the prompt of every subagent that touches git** (agents don't inherit this file's context — the recurrence was a subagent).
-    - **(b) Never merge, push, rebase, or force-push a PR / branch / worktree that another session is actively working.** An open PR whose head is a live fix worktree in `.claude/worktrees/` you did **not** create (e.g. `fix-5852`/`fix-5923` carrying fresh commits, even when they share your `diegosouzapw` identity), or any branch another session owns, is **off-limits — HOLD**, and let the owning session merge it. **Before** merging or pushing to any PR you did not create *this* session, run `git worktree list` to check for a matching in-flight worktree and re-check `gh pr view <N> --json state,headRefOid`. Only the owning session merges its own in-flight PR; mid-flight merges race the owner and re-trigger the exact commit/CHANGELOG races Rule #19 and Rule #21 guard against. (Reinforces Rule #19.)
