Summary

When an API call fails, users now see which provider, model, and endpoint rejected their request — instead of just the error type.

Auth errors (401/403/PermissionDenied) get actionable guidance: check key validity, check model access, and a direct link to OpenRouter credits if applicable.

Before

⚠️  API call failed (attempt 1/3): PermissionDeniedError
   ⏱️  Time elapsed before failure: 0.45s
   📝 Error: PermissionDeniedError
   📊 Request context: 5 messages, ~2,100 tokens, 12 tools

After

⚠️  API call failed (attempt 1/3): PermissionDeniedError
   🔌 Provider: openrouter  Model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
   🌐 Endpoint: https://openrouter.ai/api/v1
   📝 Error: PermissionDeniedError
   ⏱️  Elapsed: 0.45s  Context: 5 msgs, ~2,100 tokens

❌ Non-retryable client error (HTTP 403). Aborting.
   🔌 Provider: openrouter  Model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
   🌐 Endpoint: https://openrouter.ai/api/v1
   💡 Your API key was rejected by the provider. Check:
      • Is the key valid? Run: hermes setup
      • Does your account have access to anthropic/claude-sonnet-4?
      • Check credits: https://openrouter.ai/settings/credits

Changes

1 file, +18/-4 in run_agent.py. 296 agent tests pass.

When an API call fails, the error output now shows the provider name,
model, and endpoint URL so users can immediately identify which service
rejected their request. Auth errors (401/403) get actionable guidance:
check key validity, model access, and OpenRouter credits link.

Before: 'API call failed (attempt 1/3): PermissionDeniedError'
After:  'API call failed (attempt 1/3): PermissionDeniedError
         Provider: openrouter  Model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
         Endpoint: https://openrouter.ai/api/v1
         Your API key was rejected by the provider. Check:

           • Check credits: https://openrouter.ai/settings/credits'
