MoA reference_max_tokens is preset-level — one cap for all reference
models. When mixing a verbose model with a terse one, a single cap is
either too tight for the terse model or too loose for the verbose one.
Now each reference slot can optionally carry its own max_tokens:
reference_models:
- provider: openrouter
model: deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro
max_tokens: *** # per-slot cap, overrides preset-level
- provider: openai-codex
model: gpt-5.5
# no max_tokens → falls back to preset-level reference_max_tokens
_clean_slot (moa_config.py) preserves an optional max_tokens field on
the slot dict, coerced via _coerce_int_or_none. _run_reference
(moa_loop.py) reads slot-level max_tokens first, falling back to the
preset-level cap passed by the caller. Slots without the field are
unaffected — backward compatible.
Type hints on slot-handling functions updated from dict[str, str] to
dict[str, Any] to reflect the now-heterogeneous slot shape.
