fix: exclude batch echo rows from missing-cost filter, prevent recalculation billing them, and enforce model allowlist for inline batch requests

[sammaji]

Summary

Batch /results calls that did not settle a batch were getting their own log rows treated as billable aggregate rows during cost recalculation, causing the batch to be billed once per /results fetch. This PR introduces an Echo marker on batch accounting rows to distinguish read-only display copies from the single settlement row that owns the bill, and extends governance model-allowlist enforcement to cover inline batch create requests.

Changes

• Echo marker on batch accounting rows: A new Echo bool field on BatchAccountingDebug marks log rows written by /results calls that did not settle the batch. These rows carry a snapshot of the settled price for display but must never be billed.
• MissingCostOnly filter exclusion: The logstore query for missing-cost rows now excludes echo rows (batch_debug NOT LIKE "%\"echo\":true%"), since their NULL cost is final and no recalculation will ever fill it.
• batchRowRoleOf replaces isBatchAggregateRow: The classification function now returns one of three roles — None, Aggregate, or Echo. Rows without the echo marker are classified by whether their ID matches the deterministic aggregate ID derived from (provider, batch_id), providing backward compatibility for rows written before the marker existed.
• Echo rows reprice display-only: calculateBatchAggregateCost accepts a refreshSnapshotCost bool parameter. When true, Accounting.Cost is updated so the displayed price stays current, but the row's cost column is left NULL via the new batchDebugOnly path in persistRecalcOutcomes.
• Governance allowlist applied to inline batch create: PreLLMHook now iterates every distinct model named across batch item bodies/params via BatchCreateModels, evaluating governance for each. IsModelCheckedWhenPresent is extracted into a shared utility and extended to include BatchCreateRequest, so the model allowlist applies whenever a model is present even if it is not required.
• Anthropic batch route: mixed-model handling: The Anthropic integration now tracks when items carry different models and sets the top-level model to nil rather than erroring, allowing mixed-model Anthropic batches while still rejecting mixed models for non-Anthropic providers.
• batchCreate handler model extraction: The handler now checks both Body and Params when inferring the model from the first batch item, matching the Anthropic integration's dual-shape awareness.
• Test IDs use AccountingLogID: Existing cost-fidelity tests now derive their log IDs from batchaccounting.AccountingLogID so the batchRowRoleOf classification correctly identifies them as aggregate rows.

Type of change

• Bug fix
• Feature
• Refactor

• Chore/CI

Affected areas

• Core (Go)
• Transports (HTTP)
• Providers/Integrations
• Plugins
• UI (React)
• Docs

How to test

go test ./core/schemas/... ./framework/logstore/... ./plugins/governance/... ./plugins/logging/... ./transports/bifrost-http/...

Key scenarios to validate:

• A batch that is fetched via /results multiple times produces exactly one billed row; subsequent fetch rows have NULL cost and echo: true in batch_debug.
• MissingCostOnly search does not return echo rows.
• After RecalculateCosts, echo rows have an updated Accounting.Cost snapshot but their cost column remains NULL.
• A BatchCreateRequest with a model on the virtual key's disallowed list is rejected by governance.
• A BatchCreateRequest with no model passes governance without restriction.

Breaking changes

• Yes
• No

Related issues

Security considerations

None beyond the governance enforcement fix, which tightens model allowlist checks to cover inline batch requests that were previously bypassing them.

Checklist

• I read docs/contributing/README.md and followed the guidelines
• I added/updated tests where appropriate
• I updated documentation where needed
• I verified builds succeed (Go and UI)
• I verified the CI pipeline passes locally if applicable

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Batch requests now evaluate governance rules for each distinct model, improving model access control.
  • Anthropic batch requests support multiple models, while unsupported providers require valid model information.
  • Batch model detection recognizes models provided in request bodies or parameters.
  • Batch result copies are identified separately from billable aggregate records.

• Bug Fixes

  • Batch result copies no longer appear as missing-cost items or receive billable cost updates.
  • Cost displays and accounting details remain accurate when repricing batch results.

Walkthrough

The change marks batch result echo rows, excludes them from missing-cost searches, and preserves their unset billable costs during repricing. Batch creation resolves models across request formats and applies governance checks to each distinct model.

Changes

Batch accounting echo handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Echo metadata and missing-cost filtering core/schemas/batch.go, framework/logstore/rdb.go, framework/logstore/missingcostbatchecho_test.go, plugins/logging/main.go	BatchAccountingDebug identifies result echo rows. MissingCostOnly excludes these rows. Tests cover the filtering behavior.
Echo-aware batch repricing plugins/logging/operations.go, plugins/logging/costfidelity_test.go	Batch repricing distinguishes aggregate and echo rows. Echo rows refresh display costs without persisting billable costs. Tests cover the revised API and echo-row behavior.

Batch model governance

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Batch model extraction and provider handling plugins/governance/main.go, transports/bifrost-http/handlers/inference.go, transports/bifrost-http/integrations/anthropic.go	Batch model extraction reads request bodies and parameters, removes duplicates, and applies fallback resolution. Provider handling validates missing, uniform, and mixed model combinations.
Per-model governance enforcement plugins/governance/utils.go, plugins/governance/resolver.go, plugins/governance/resolver_test.go	Batch creation uses optional-model validation. PreLLMHook evaluates each distinct model and stops on rejection. Tests cover allowed, disallowed, and absent models.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 40a38

The batch-accounting changes can still cause legacy echo rows to be repeatedly selected for cost recovery, while zero-cost echo rows may not retain refreshed display pricing. These bounded correctness and operational issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.
