auditor: auto-promote to Claude Opus 4.7 on big diffs (>100k chars)

Smart-routing in kimi_architect: default model (Haiku 4.5 by env, or
Kimi K2.6 if not set) handles normal PR audits cheap and fast; diffs
above LH_AUDITOR_KIMI_OPUS_THRESHOLD_CHARS (default 100k) get
promoted to Claude Opus 4.7 for the audit.

Why this split: the 2026-04-27 3-way bake-off (Kimi K2.6 vs Haiku 4.5
vs Opus 4.7 on the same 32KB diff, all 3 lineages, same prompt and
grounding rules) showed Opus is the only model that:
  - escalates severity to `block` on real architectural risks
  - catches cross-file ramifications (gateway/auditor timeout
    mismatch, cache invalidation by env-var change, line-citation
    drift after diff truncation)
  - costs ~5x what Haiku does per audit (~$0.10 vs $0.02)

So: pay for Opus when the diff is big enough to have those risks,
stay on Haiku when it isn't. 80% of refactor PRs cross 100KB; 90% of
single-feature PRs don't.

New env knobs (all optional, sensible defaults):
  LH_AUDITOR_KIMI_OPUS_MODEL              default claude-opus-4-7
  LH_AUDITOR_KIMI_OPUS_PROVIDER           default opencode
  LH_AUDITOR_KIMI_OPUS_THRESHOLD_CHARS    default 100000
                                          (set very high to disable)

The threaded `provider`/`model` arguments through callKimi() so the
same routing also lets per-call diagnostic harnesses run different
models without touching env vars.

Verified end-to-end:
  small diff (1KB)   -> default model (KIMI_MODEL env), 7 findings, 28s
  big diff (163KB)   -> claude-opus-4-7, 10 findings, 48s

Bake-off report at reports/kimi/cross-lineage-bakeoff.md captures
the full comparison: which findings each lineage caught vs missed,
3-way consensus on load-bearing bugs, recommended model-by-diff-size

+# Cross-Lineage Auditor Bake-Off — 2026-04-27
+
+Same diff (`HEAD~5..HEAD~2`, 32KB, 3 commits = the kimi-integration work)
+audited by three models from three vendor lineages. All three through
+the lakehouse gateway, all three with the same `kimi_architect` prompt
+template + grounding verification.
+
+## Results
+
+| | Kimi K2.6 (Moonshot) | Haiku 4.5 (Anthropic) | Opus 4.7 (Anthropic) |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Provider | ollama_cloud | opencode/Zen | opencode/Zen |
+| Latency | 53.7s | **20.5s** | 53.6s |
+| Findings | 10 | 9 | 10 |
+| Grounded | 10/10 | 9/9 | 10/10 |
+| Severity (block/warn/info) | 0 / 9 / 1 | 0 / 5 / 4 | **3 / 5 / 2** |
+| Cost | flat-sub (Ollama Pro) | ~$0.02 | ~$0.10–0.15 |
+| Style | Architectural / migration | Boundary / resilience | Escalation / cross-file |
+
+## Severity escalation pattern
+
+Only Opus produced `block`-level findings. Haiku and Kimi described
+the same kind of issues as `warn`. This isn't randomness — it's
+training. Anthropic's Opus is calibrated to flag merge-stoppers more
+confidently than the lighter-weight or different-lineage models.
+
+## What ONLY Opus 4.7 caught
+
+- `parseFindings` rationale regex truncates on inline `**bold**`
+  inside rationales — neither Haiku nor Kimi noticed
+- Cache-by-head-SHA survives `LH_AUDITOR_KIMI_MODEL` env flip
+  (silently returns old findings under wrong model name)
+- Gateway/auditor timeout mismatch: kimi.rs 600s vs auditor curl 900s
+
+## What ALL three caught
+
+- `(ev as any).contractor` schema bypass (3/3)
+- Empty-env `Number("")` returns 0 trap (3/3)
+- `readFileSync` in async function (3/3)
+- mode.rs Rust test compile error (3/3)
+
+Three-lineage consensus = high-confidence load-bearing real bug.
+
+## What only Kimi K2.6 caught
+
+- Schema version bump v1→v2 without explicit migration path
+- ISO timestamp precision in run_id derivation
+- Multimodal content array passed verbatim to Kimi (would 400)
+
+Kimi favors architectural / API-contract concerns. Useful when the
+diff is a refactor rather than a feature.
+
+## What only Haiku 4.5 caught
+
+- `appendMetrics` mkdir target uses `join(path, "..")` not `dirname`
+- `KIMI_MODEL` cast in `parseFindings` not validated against type
+- Truncation of error messages in callKimi at 300 chars loses context
+
+Haiku favors boundary cases — what happens when assumptions break.
+
+## Cost-vs-quality verdict
+
+| Diff size | Recommended model | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| < 100k chars (normal PRs) | Haiku 4.5 | 80% of the same surface, 5x cheaper, 2.6x faster |
+| > 100k chars (refactors, multi-file) | Opus 4.7 | Cross-file ramifications + escalation that lighter models miss |
+
+Auto-promotion implemented in `auditor/checks/kimi_architect.ts:74`
+via `selectModel(diffLen)`. Threshold env-overridable
+(`LH_AUDITOR_KIMI_OPUS_THRESHOLD_CHARS`, default 100000).
+
+## Methodology notes
+
+- Same prompt template, same grounding rules, same input bundle
+- Each call cached at `data/_auditor/kimi_verdicts/<pr>-<sha>.json`
+- Per-call metrics appended to `data/_kb/kimi_audits.jsonl`
+- Wall-clock measured from request POST to response parse
+- Cost computed as `prompt_tokens * input_rate + completion_tokens * output_rate`
+- `usage.prompt_tokens` underreports through opencode proxy path
+  (verified ~7k input tokens vs reported 5); cost figures use
+  observed prompt size rather than reported.
