docs: clarify that provider "main" is for auxiliary tasks only (#6291)
Users were setting model.provider to "main" after reading the auxiliary provider docs, causing "Unknown provider" errors. The "main" alias is only valid inside auxiliary:, compression:, and fallback_model: configs where it means "use the same provider as my main agent chat." Added warning admonitions and inline clarifications to: - configuration.md: Auxiliary Models provider list and Provider Options table - fallback-providers.md: Provider Options for Auxiliary Tasks table Reported by community member cn on Discord.

### Provider Options for Auxiliary Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
These options apply to `auxiliary:`, `compression:`, and `fallback_model:` configs only — `"main"` is **not** a valid value for your top-level `model.provider`. For custom endpoints, use `provider: custom` in your `model:` section (see [AI Providers](/docs/integrations/providers)).
|
||||
|
||||
| Provider | Description | Requirements |
|
||||
|----------|-------------|-------------|
|
||||
| `"auto"` | Try providers in order until one works (default) | At least one provider configured |
|
||||
| `"openrouter"` | Force OpenRouter | `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` |
|
||||
| `"nous"` | Force Nous Portal | `hermes auth` |
|
||||
| `"codex"` | Force Codex OAuth | `hermes model` → Codex |
|
||||
| `"main"` | Use whatever provider the main agent uses | Active main provider configured |
|
||||
| `"main"` | Use whatever provider the main agent uses (auxiliary tasks only) | Active main provider configured |
|
||||
| `"anthropic"` | Force Anthropic native | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` or Claude Code credentials |
