 // ── gemini schema sanitizer ────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 //
 // gemini's generateContent API expects an OpenAPI 3.0 Schema subset, not full
-// JSON Schema. arktype emits constructs that gemini rejects with errors like:
-//   - "any_of[0].enum: only allowed for STRING type"
-//   - "parameters.type schema didn't specify the schema type field"
+// JSON Schema. arktype 2.x emits constructs that gemini rejects with errors like:
+//   - "parameters.<field>.enum: only allowed for STRING type"
+//   - "functionDeclaration parameters.<field> schema didn't specify the schema type field"
 //   - "anyOf must be the only field in a schema node"
 //
-// specific transforms applied here:
-//   1. collapse `{anyOf: [{enum:["a"]}, {enum:["b"]}]}` (arktype's string-enum
-//      encoding) into the direct form gemini wants: `{type:"string", enum:[...]}`.
-//      also handles `{const:"a"}` variants defensively (arktype 2.x may emit these).
-//   2. when `anyOf` / `oneOf` can't be collapsed but has sibling fields
-//      (e.g. `type`, `description`, `items`), strip those siblings — gemini
-//      rejects `anyOf` alongside any peer keywords. see opencode #14659.
-//   3. drop `$schema` metadata and rename `$defs` -> `definitions` (draft-07
-//      compatibility; gemini doesn't understand `$defs`).
+// transforms applied here:
+//   1. add `type: "string"` to enum-only schemas. arktype emits string literal
+//      unions as `{enum: ["a","b"]}` without a `type` field — gemini requires
+//      the type declaration for any non-object schema.
+//   2. collapse `{anyOf: [{enum:["a"]}, {enum:["b"]}]}` (older arktype form)
+//      into `{type:"string", enum:[...]}`. also handles `{const:"a"}` branches.
+//   3. when `anyOf` / `oneOf` can't be collapsed, strip sibling fields (`type`,
+//      `description`, `items`, etc.) — gemini rejects `anyOf` alongside any
+//      peer keywords. see opencode #14659.
+//   4. drop `$schema` metadata and rename `$defs` → `definitions` (draft-07
+//      compatibility; gemini doesn't understand either).
 //
-// gated to gemini-routed traffic via `isGeminiRouted()` so other providers
-// continue to see the original (untransformed) schema.
+// gating: `isGeminiRouted()` detects gemini-targeted traffic so other
+// providers continue to see the original (untransformed) schema.
+//
+// delivery: fastmcp (3.x) uses `xsschema.toJsonSchema()` which reads
+// `schema["~standard"].jsonSchema.input({target:"draft-07"})` when present
+// (arktype 2.x exposes this). we proxy the whole `~standard` chain so our
+// transform runs regardless of which path xsschema takes.
