Microsoft.Extensions.AI 10.9.0 adds RoutingChatClient, OrderedFailoverChatClient, and SemanticRoutingChatClient. Verified against the real package: what fails over, what does not, and why MEAI001 breaks your build.

Aspire's AddServiceDefaults applies a standard resilience handler to every HttpClient. Calling AddStandardResilienceHandler again stacks a second one instead of replacing it. Here are the three real override paths, the -standard options name nobody documents, and the infinite timeout you inherit if you just remove it.

Use the Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Resilience handler for HttpClient calls, since it is Polly with HTTP-aware defaults and telemetry in one line. Reach for Polly's ResiliencePipeline directly only when you protect something that is not an HttpClient.
