"""
The LLM provider calls of the scored strategies.
The ``semantic``, ``moderation`` and ``llm_judge`` strategies each call an LLM provider: for
embeddings, a moderation model, and a chat completion, respectively. They do so through a
:class:`GuardrailClient`, so that they are independent of any one provider, and testable
with a fake.
:class:`OpenAIGuardrailClient` implements it with the OpenAI Python SDK, for any
OpenAI-compatible Smarter :class:`~smarter.apps.provider.models.Provider`.
:func:`default_client_for` returns one for the Provider that a Guardrail names in its
``provider`` field, ``openai`` by default, as its owner may read it.
