## Why Generic `sk-...` credentials can match several supported providers, while the current exact-hint routing leaves ambiguous findings unconsumed and can eventually quarantine them without testing a compatible provider. The keycheck pipeline needs ordered provider resolution and ZAI coverage so a credential is attributed to the first provider that positively recognizes it. ## What Changes - Add durable, sequential resolution for credentials whose format or finding context permits multiple providers. - Distinguish provider mismatch from authenticated match and retryable probe failure. - Stop remaining provider attempts after the first positive match while retaining auditable attempt outcomes. - Add a ZAI provider checker with a minimal generation/billing probe and include ZAI in compatible generic-key routing. - Keep explicit single-provider findings on their existing direct validation path. ## Capabilities ### New Capabilities - `ambiguous-provider-resolution`: Ordered, durable validation of one ambiguous credential across compatible providers until one positively matches or all definitive routes are exhausted. - `zai-key-validation`: Extraction, probing, classification, persistence, and runtime registration for ZAI API credentials. ### Modified Capabilities None. ## Impact - Affects scanner provider hints, keycheck candidate extraction, PostgreSQL queue/schema operations, provider checker orchestration, status projection, runtime configuration, and lifecycle authority manifests. - Adds a ZAI checker module using the existing HTTP and PostgreSQL keycheck infrastructure; model-list authentication alone does not qualify a key as alive. - Requires regression coverage for route ordering, retry behavior, atomic match resolution, candidate deduplication, and ZAI response classification; the existing free-form service and credential tables require no schema migration.
