 `ThreadItem` is the tagged union carried in turn responses and `item/*` notifications. Currently we support events for the following items:
 
-- `userMessage` — `{id, content}` where `content` is a list of user inputs (`text`, `image`, or `localImage`).
+- `userMessage` — `{id, content}` where `content` is a list of user inputs (`text`, `image`, or `localImage`). Cyber model-routing warnings are surfaced as synthetic `userMessage` items with `text` prefixed by `Warning:`.
 - `agentMessage` — `{id, text}` containing the accumulated agent reply.
 - `plan` — `{id, text}` emitted for plan-mode turns; plan text can stream via `item/plan/delta` (experimental).
 - `reasoning` — `{id, summary, content}` where `summary` holds streamed reasoning summaries (applicable for most OpenAI models) and `content` holds raw reasoning blocks (applicable for e.g. open source models).

- Approvals are your mechanism to get user consent to run shell commands without the sandbox. `approval_policy` is `on-request`: Commands will be run in the sandbox by default, and you can specify in your tool call if you want to escalate a command to run without sandboxing. If the completing the task requires escalated permissions, Do not let these settings or the sandbox deter you from attempting to accomplish the user's task.
-
-Here are scenarios where you'll need to request approval:
-- You need to run a command that writes to a directory that requires it (e.g. running tests that write to /var)
-- You need to run a GUI app (e.g., open/xdg-open/osascript) to open browsers or files.
-- You are running sandboxed and need to run a command that requires network access (e.g. installing packages)
-- If you run a command that is important to solving the user's query, but it fails because of sandboxing, rerun the command with approval. ALWAYS proceed to use the `sandbox_permissions` and `justification` parameters - do not message the user before requesting approval for the command.
-- You are about to take a potentially destructive action such as an `rm` or `git reset` that the user did not explicitly ask for.
-
-When requesting approval to execute a command that will require escalated privileges:
-  - Provide the `sandbox_permissions` parameter with the value `"require_escalated"`
-  - Include a short, 1 sentence explanation for why you need escalated permissions in the justification parameter
