Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to When enabled, authenticated callers can send prompts and retrieved context to arbitrary HTTPS destinations, while those calls bypass the shared failure breaker; this creates material data-egress and resource-exhaustion risk, and userinfo in an override URL can leak credentials into logs. The PR should not merge without sanitizing endpoint logging and either constraining or explicitly accepting the destination and failure-containment risks. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

validation logic to return the configured self._endpoint rather than the
client-controlled candidate, while retaining the existing no-op detection based
on matching host and port. Preserve the existing None return and allow the

- Around line 135-145: Normalize malformed candidate URL parsing failures into
the documented non-retryable 400 LLM_OVERRIDE_REJECTED response. Update the
candidate URL validation path around _host_key so it catches ValueError from
urlsplit or parts.port and routes the candidate through the existing rejection
handling, while avoiding conversion of self._endpoint configuration errors into
client-facing 400 responses.

Problem
Before the services refactor, metadata.llm_override honored base_url and api_key alongside model. VLLMClient._resolve_overrides dropped that — honoring a client endpoint is SSRF, and the server's key would have been shipped to it.
Now, the API fails silently and misleadingly: model is still applied while base_url is dropped, so the request goes to the server's endpoint carrying a third party's model name. The operator sees an unrelated-looking error from the wrong provider:
LLM streaming error (400): Invalid model name passed in model=gpt-5.1.
Change
Opt-in LLM_OVERRIDE_ALLOW_CUSTOM_ENDPOINT. Unset — the default — keeps today's behaviour, now with a warning log naming the dropped endpoint instead of leaving the misleading 400 unexplained.
When on, base_url/api_key are honored, and the request shape is pinned:
The host stays unrestricted, deliberately: deployments migrating off pre-refactor clients can't enumerate endpoints in advance. What remains reachable is essentially other https LLM gateways. It grants no read access a caller doesn't already have (/search returns the same partition content); what changes is that data leaves via the server's egress, which matters against a DLP or approved-subprocessor constraint.
Two consequences, each its own commit:
