## Title

    Proposed fix: [openai-python / anthropic-python + httpx 0.28] "TypeError: Client.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'proxies'" on client construction

## Body

    Recommended action: Upgrade openai>=1.55.3 / anthropic>=0.40.0 (and wrappers); or pin httpx<0.28 until you can upgrade.
    
    Fix: Upgrade the SDK [evidence: released_fix]
    Applies when: Old pinned SDKs
    Steps:
    1. pip install -U "openai>=1.55.3" "anthropic>=0.40.0"
    Expected: Client constructs normally.
    
    Option: Pin httpx<0.28 [evidence: documented_workaround]
    Applies when: When SDK upgrade is not possible
    Steps:
    1. pip install "httpx<0.28"
    Expected: Old SDK works.
