+## LLM Guardrails and Tool Access
+
+External LLM calls are now routed through a centralized client that applies:
+
+- A global guardrail prompt for every outbound model request
+- Stage-specific guardrails for request interpretation and change summaries
+- Service-mediated tool outputs that expose tracked Gitea/project state without giving the model raw credentials
+
+Current mediated tools include:
+
+- `gitea_project_catalog`: active tracked projects and repository mappings
+- `gitea_project_state`: current repository, PR, and linked-issue state for the project in scope
+- `gitea_project_issues`: tracked open issues for the relevant repository
+- `gitea_pull_requests`: tracked pull requests for the relevant repository
+
+The service also supports a bounded live tool-call loop for selected lookups. When enabled, the model may request one live call such as `gitea_lookup_issue` or `gitea_lookup_pull_request`, the service executes it against Gitea, and the final model response is generated from the returned result. This remains mediated by the service, so the model never receives raw credentials.
+
+Live tool access is stage-aware. `LLM_LIVE_TOOL_ALLOWLIST` controls which live tools exist globally, while `LLM_LIVE_TOOL_STAGE_ALLOWLIST` controls which LLM stages may use them. If you need per-stage subsets, `LLM_LIVE_TOOL_STAGE_TOOL_MAP` accepts a JSON object mapping each stage to the exact tools it may use. For example, you can allow issue and PR lookups during `request_interpretation` while keeping `change_summary` fully read-only.
+
+When the interpreter decides a prompt starts a new project, the service can run a dedicated `project_naming` LLM stage before generation. `LLM_PROJECT_NAMING_SYSTEM_PROMPT` and `LLM_PROJECT_NAMING_GUARDRAIL_PROMPT` let you steer how project titles and repository slugs are chosen. The interpreter now checks tracked project repositories plus live Gitea repository names when available, so if the model suggests a colliding repo slug the service will automatically move to the next available slug.
+
+New project creation can also run a dedicated `project_id_naming` stage. `LLM_PROJECT_ID_SYSTEM_PROMPT` and `LLM_PROJECT_ID_GUARDRAIL_PROMPT` control how stable project ids are chosen, and the service will append deterministic numeric suffixes when an id is already taken instead of always falling back to a random UUID-based id.
+
+Runtime visibility for the active guardrails, mediated tools, live tools, and model configuration is available at `/llm/runtime` and in the dashboard System tab.
+
+These tool payloads are appended to the model prompt as authoritative JSON generated by the service, so the LLM can reason over live project and Gitea context while remaining constrained by the configured guardrails.
