Command integrity breaks in the LLM routing layer

Command integrity breaks in the LLM routing layer 2026-04-16 at 09:02 By Sinisa Markovic Systems that rely on LLM agents often send requests through intermediary routing services before reaching a model. These routers connect to different providers through a single endpoint and manage how requests are handled. This layer can influence what gets executed and
