External plugins, extensions, and downstream wrappers (notably the upstream
`@mariozechner/pi-coding-agent` AgentSession routed through the legacy-pi-compat
shim) call `modelRegistry.hasConfiguredAuth(model)` before launching a subagent
to short-circuit when no API key is configured. Our `ModelRegistry` did not
expose that method, so the direct agent-launch path threw
`this._modelRegistry.hasConfiguredAuth is not a function` and exited with 0
tokens, 0 tool uses, ~100ms runtime — well before any model conversation began.
The `task` tool path bypassed the preflight and worked, masking the missing
API.
Add a thin `hasConfiguredAuth(model)` wrapper that returns true for keyless
providers and providers with stored auth, matching upstream semantics. Add a
focused regression test asserting the method exists and distinguishes
configured vs. unconfigured providers.
Fixes#993.
