+"""Live provider smoke suite — contract-drift backstop.
+
+Cassettes are frozen, so a provider that changes its response schema keeps the recorded
+suite green (false confidence). These ``@pytest.mark.live`` tests hit the **real**
+providers and assert the *contract shape* a schema change would break (a non-empty
+assistant message; embeddings retrieval works), not exact content (which drifts).
+
+They are a **maintainer / periodic** job, NOT part of the default run:
+
+    # default run — these auto-skip (no real keys) and never touch the network
+    pytest tests/rails/llm/test_live_smoke.py -m "not live" --block-network
+
+    # maintainer / scheduled CI — real keys, no network block
+    OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-... NVIDIA_API_KEY=nvapi-... pytest tests/rails/llm/test_live_smoke.py -m live
+
+Each test auto-skips when its real key is absent or is the replay dummy, so the default
+suite (and CI without secrets) stays green without special handling.
