Metadata

Commit message: feat(llm): implement LLM provider abstraction layer and Anthropic Claude backend
Branch name: feat/v3.6.0-llm-provider-abstraction-anthropic

Background and Context

The LLM provider layer needs a clean abstraction that allows actors to be provider-agnostic. Currently the provider is tightly coupled to a single backend. This issue refactors the LLMProvider abstraction to support pluggable backends and integrates Anthropic Claude as the first additional backend beyond the existing default.

This is a child of Epic #8505 (Advanced Context Strategies & LLM Provider Extensions (v3.6.0)).

Expected Behavior

When this issue is complete:

LLMProvider protocol is finalized with multi-backend support
AnthropicProvider backend is integrated and functional
Provider selection is configurable at actor/plan/global levels
Integration tests pass with coverage >= 97%

Acceptance Criteria

LLMProvider protocol is finalized with multi-backend support
AnthropicProvider backend is integrated and functional
Provider selection is configurable at actor/plan/global levels
Integration tests pass with coverage >= 97%

Subtasks

Refactor LLMProvider abstraction to support pluggable backends
Implement AnthropicProvider backend with full API support
Add provider configuration schema (actor-level, plan-level, global-level)
Write integration tests
Verify coverage >= 97%

Definition of Done

This issue should be closed when:

All acceptance criteria above are verified and checked off
All subtasks are completed
Integration tests pass with coverage >= 97% confirmed by CI
Code has passed peer review and been merged to the main branch
Parent Epic #8505 has been updated to reflect this issue's completion
