+not load-bearing for the base loop.

+## Usage
+
+```bash
+python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install -e .
+
+# Credential: either export OPENROUTER_API_KEY directly, or set
+# REIN_OPENWEIGHTS_APPROLE_DIR / REIN_OPENWEIGHTS_OPENROUTER_KV_PATH for
+# OpenBao-based acquisition (see src/rein_openweights/credentials.py).
+export OPENROUTER_API_KEY=sk-...
+
+rein-openweights run --task-file examples/task-hello-sandbox.json --no-hub
+```
+
+Tests: `python3 -m pytest tests/ -q` (26 tests, no network/OpenBao calls —
+everything mocked at the `httpx`/`bao` subprocess boundary).

 ## Task: Pick the starter open-weight model + OpenRouter path
 
-Confirm `llm-connect` already supports the intended model class (check
-its existing OpenRouter integration, used today by rein-aharness's
-mail-triage/brief-daily paths for structured JSON — but not for a
-multi-turn tool-use loop). Identify gaps: streaming tool-call support,
-function-calling schema compatibility for the chosen open-weight model.
+Checked `llm-connect`'s existing OpenRouter integration
+(`OpenRouterAdapter.execute_prompt`): it takes a single prompt string,
+builds a fixed `[system, user]` message pair itself, and never surfaces
+`message.tool_calls` in its response — it cannot drive a multi-turn
+tool-calling loop without a breaking change to llm-connect's frozen
+Core `LLMAdapter` ABC. Decision: rein-openweights uses its own minimal
+OpenRouter client (`openrouter_client.py`) for the agentic loop instead;
+`tools`/`tool_choice` already pass through llm-connect's own
+`OPENAI_CHAT_PASSTHROUGH_FIELDS` allow-list, confirming the request
+shape is standard OpenAI-compatible function-calling, just not
+round-tripped by that adapter today. Starter model is a `--model`-configurable
+default (`meta-llama/llama-3.1-70b-instruct`), not hardcoded.
 
 ```task

 ## Task: Minimal agentic loop
 
-Implement plan → tool call → observe → repeat with a hard tool allow-list
-matching rein-aharness's `green-commit-only` (Read/Write/Edit/Glob/Grep +
-local git add/commit/status/log/diff, no push/network/shell), bounded by
-a turn/token budget (reuse `llm-connect`'s `BudgetTracker` the way
-rein-aharness's runner does).
+Implemented in `loop.py` + `tools.py`: plan → tool call → observe →
+repeat with a hard tool allow-list matching rein-aharness's
+`green-commit-only` (`read_file`/`write_file`/`edit_file`/`glob_files`/
+`grep_files` + `git_status`/`git_diff`/`git_log`/`git_add_commit`, no
+push/network/shell), bounded by `max_turns` and a token budget. Budget
+tracker is vendored locally (`budget.py`), not `llm-connect`'s —
+consistent with T01/ADR-002 keeping llm-connect optional. Path-traversal
+guarded (`_resolve`); tool errors are reported back to the model as a
+`role: tool` message rather than crashing the loop. 26 tests, all
+mocked at the `httpx`/subprocess boundary.

 ```
 
 ## Task: Success criterion + reporting
 
-Mirror rein-aharness's model: a local git commit is the sole success
-signal, State Hub progress/token event on completion, metrics written in
-a comparable format so the two reins are measurable side by side.
+Implemented in `runner.py`/`hub.py`: a local git commit is the sole
+success signal (`RunResult.ok == committed`), State Hub progress event
+(`executor_run`) and token event posted on completion via a hub module
+mirroring rein-aharness's, `--no-hub` to skip. Not yet exercised against
+a live State Hub call in this pass (mocked in tests) — same caveat as
+rein-aharness/glas-harness's own not-yet-live-run notes elsewhere in
+this rein family.

 ## Task: Credential brokering
 
-Resolve per glas-harness `GLAS-WP-0001-T06`: OpenRouter/llm-connect
-credential acquisition either brokered by glas-harness or done directly
-here via OpenBao/ops-warden. Do not hardcode a choice before that ADR
-addendum lands.
+Resolved by glas-harness `docs/adr/ADR-002-credential-brokering-and-composable-reins.md`
+(Option B): rein-openweights acquires its own OpenRouter credential.
+Implemented in `credentials.py`, mirroring rein-aharness's mailscan.py
+OpenBao AppRole/ambient-token pattern (explicit env var → AppRole
+exchange → ambient token → single `kv get`). glas-harness does not
+broker this.
