   [`modules/31-proxy-middleware-builtin.md`](modules/31-proxy-middleware-builtin.md).
-- The model allowlist is enforced in TWO places. `CheckLLMPolicyLimits`
-  is authoritative: it resolves the policy that governs this
-  (provider, caller-groups) and denies (`deny_code = llm_policy.model_blocked`)
-  when no applicable policy permits the model — so an allowlist scoped to
-  one group/provider never leaks to another, and an un-guardrailed policy
-  is genuinely unrestricted. `llm_guardrail` is a per-provider fail-closed
-  backstop: it only carries an allowlist for a provider every authorising
-  policy restricts, and blocks unknown/undetermined models even when
-  management is unreachable. Because that backstop allowlist is the UNION
-  of every restricting policy's models, per-group narrowing lives only in
-  the authoritative check: during a `CheckLLMPolicyLimits` outage
-  `llm_limit_check` fails open, so a caller can reach any model in the
-  provider's union — a group scoped to model A could reach model B if
-  another group restricts the same provider to B. This is the documented
-  fail-open trade-off; a future flag may switch it to fail-closed.
 - SSE streaming requires special handling on the response side; the
   parser must handle partial chunks without buffering the whole
   stream. See [`modules/32-proxy-llm-parsers.md`](modules/32-proxy-llm-parsers.md).
