feat: restructure the customer-facing model catalog - #1007
Conversation
Adds hive-small, hive-medium, deepseek-v4-flash and deepseek-v4-pro, moves hive-default and hive-auto off OpenRouter onto Groq, and deprecates hive-fast while keeping it fully resolvable. Every credit price is derived from the provider's own published rate with the established formula, ceil(usd_per_million * 1.4 * 100000), and every rate was fetched live on 2026-08-22. The derivations are recorded in a machine readable table in the migration header and checked by a new offline test against a committed snapshot of those rates, so a price cannot drift from its stated source without a test going red. hive-default and hive-auto get new Groq route rows and their OpenRouter routes are disabled rather than repointed in place. Repointing would have been the shorter change and is unsafe: the LiteLLM config sync merges field by field and preserves every key the database does not own, so the OpenRouter specific extra_body block on those two entries would have stayed attached to a route now pointing at Groq and been sent upstream on every default model request. The gateway level chat fallbacks are removed for the same class of reason. A fallback answers from a different upstream model than the alias was priced against, which breaks the one alias one price rule one layer below the catalog. Both moved aliases get cheaper, so no customer can be overcharged by this change. hive-default goes from 21000 in and 84000 out to 10500 and 42000, and hive-auto from 56000 and 224000 to 21000 and 84000. The Compound repoints originally asked for are deliberately absent. Groq publishes no per token price for groq/compound or groq/compound-mini, and bills built in tool use separately, so no single credit pair can express their cost.

Addresses both CodeRabbit findings on PR #1007. The route-groq-fast comment in deploy/litellm/config.yaml still described moonshotai/kimi-k2-instruct, a model that route has not served for some time, and still claimed an automatic cascade to the flagship route through litellm_settings.fallbacks. This change removes those chat fallbacks, so that second claim became wrong in this very diff. The comment now states what the route serves, that hive-fast is deprecated but deliberately kept for back-compat, and that nothing falls back any more. The migration's loose-end note read as though the seed config still named the retired fallback routes. It does not; they are deleted in this same change. The note now separates the seed file, which is correct, from a already-running box, which keeps whatever litellm_settings it already has because the config sync preserves that block verbatim. Also adds docs/proof for the change. The evidence is database level rather than a live UI capture, and the README says so plainly and explains why: the demo box is undeployable until issue #1002 clears. The transcript is a real run of the repo's own migration applier against a throwaway Postgres, showing the resulting catalog, the one enabled route per alias invariant, the surviving hive-fast row, and the policy group membership that decides whether a new alias is reachable at all.

Adversarial security review, scoped to secrets, the provider-blindness boundary, API key routing in the LiteLLM config, the entitlement effect of the retired routes, and the new test regexes.
Clean categories.
- Secrets and credentials: clean. No key, token, password or connection string appears anywhere in the diff. Every
api_keyindeploy/litellm/config.yamlis anos.environ/...reference, and.env.exampleadds only comments plus two model slugs that were already there. - API key routing in
deploy/litellm/config.yaml: clean. Every entry in the file, touched and untouched, pairs a vendor key with that vendor's own model prefix or endpoint.groq/...entries takeGROQ_API_KEY,openrouter/...entries takeOPENROUTER_API_KEY, and the two genericopenai/embedding adapters both carry an explicitapi_base: https://openrouter.ai/api/v1besideOPENROUTER_API_KEY. No route sends one provider's credential to another provider's endpoint. The two env-driven model slugs (GROQ_FAST_MODEL,OPENROUTER_AUTO_MODEL) both default to a slug matching the key beside them. - Regex safety in the new test code: clean, by construction. Go's
regexpis RE2, so catastrophic backtracking is not reachable, and every pattern here reads a fixed file from the repo rather than any external input.
One informational item on the config file, pre-existing and not introduced here. The bge-m3 entry is a generic openai/ adapter whose api_base comes from EMBEDDING_LOCAL_BASE_URL, which is empty in .env.example. Unset, LiteLLM's openai adapter falls back to api.openai.com, so an operator who points EMBEDDING_MODEL at bge-m3 without setting the base URL sends embedding text to a third party. api_key is the literal "none", so no credential leaks and the call fails 401. Worth a defensive default in a separate change, not this one.
One more on the provider-blindness boundary that has no line in this diff to attach to. providerBlindResourceLabel in apps/edge-api/internal/errors/provider_blind.go (line 111) rejects any alias matching providerNameRegex, and that word list contains deepseek. So for the two new aliases, every provider-blind error message will read "requested model is temporarily unavailable" rather than naming the alias the customer sent. Not a leak, and not a challenge to the owner's naming exemption, but the exemption does not currently reach error text. If it is meant to, exempt exact catalog alias ids from that check.
Specific findings are inline. Five in total: two MEDIUM on the provider-blindness boundary, one MEDIUM on a capability regression the retired route causes, one LOW-MEDIUM on entitlement classification, one LOW on test robustness.

Adversarial pass with one question: what in this change silently does not take effect, or takes effect differently than the body claims.
First, the two claims I set out to refute and could not. Both hold.
The seed-versus-sync claim is correct. deploy/docker/docker-compose.yml bind-mounts deploy/litellm/config.yaml read-only at /seed/config.yaml (line 196) and the entrypoint copies it only under if [ ! -f /etc/litellm/config.yaml ] (lines 203-206). The live file is the named volume litellm-config, shared with control-plane (lines 193, 280), which WriteAndRestart rewrites atomically and then restarts the container over the Docker socket. So the config edits here really are first-boot-only and provider_routes really does govern a running box. custom_providers has groq and openrouter both enabled = true (20260611_01 lines 52-53), so the sync's join picks up all six new routes.
Both visibility gates are covered. AliasVisibleToTenant returns true for a public alias with no tenant_model_visibility row, so that table needs nothing. model_policy_group_members is the gate that has bitten twice before, and the migration writes default and closed for all four new aliases. The two moved aliases keep the memberships they already had. Nothing inert there.
And one correction to the review brief itself: CI does apply this migration against a real Postgres. .github/workflows/ci.yml line 365 runs the whole supabase/migrations/*.sql chain with ON_ERROR_STOP=1 before the control-plane and edge-api suites, so the SQL's validity, the lifecycle CHECK constraint and every FK here are genuinely exercised. What is not exercised is any post-migration behaviour.
That leaves the findings below. The first two are the reason I would not merge this as written: they are not no-ops, they are silent breaks in the opposite direction.
1. Two live endpoints lose their only capable route
20260414_01_provider_capabilities_media_columns.sql is the only migration in the repository that ever sets supports_batch, supports_image_generation or supports_image_edit to true, and it sets all three on exactly one row: route-openrouter-auto. Step 6b disables that row. After this migration no route in the catalog carries any of the three.
/v1/images/generationsis registered atapps/edge-api/cmd/server/main.go:751and passesNeedImageGeneration: true(internal/images/handler.go:196)./v1/batchesis registered atmain.go:761and the local executor passesNeedBatch: true(apps/control-plane/internal/batchstore/local_executor_adapters.go:97).
matchesRequestedCapabilities drops the candidate, SelectRoute returns ErrRouteNotEligible, and writeRoutingError maps that to 422 (apps/control-plane/internal/routing/http.go:116). Every request to either endpoint, on every alias, fails.
The body's answer for the image half does not hold either. It says image traffic belongs on route-doc-vlm, but route-doc-vlm has no provider_routes row at all, by the migration's own admission in its WHAT DELIBERATELY DOES NOT CHANGE section. SelectRoute reads provider_routes, so no alias can ever resolve to it. The only caller that reaches it is agent-engine, which names the LiteLLM model directly (apps/agent-engine/internal/docvlm/docvlm.go:21) and bypasses the catalog entirely. So the stated destination for image traffic is unreachable through the public API.
2. hive-default and hive-auto lose reasoning, and reasoning requests start failing
See the inline comment on the step 6 capability insert. Short version: the retired routes carried supports_reasoning = true, the replacements carry false, and a reasoning_effort request that returns 200 today returns 422 after this merges.
3. The lifecycle claim is half wrong
See the inline comment on line 89. The back end half is right; the front end half is not.
4. hive-auto still advertises the two things this PR removes
Its capability_badges are ["auto","fallback","preview"] (20260331_01 line 62) and this migration does not touch them. The summary was rewritten for honesty, which is good, but the badges are the more prominent element in apps/web-console/components/catalog/model-catalog-table.tsx and they still say auto and fallback after this diff deletes the automatic selection and both LiteLLM fallbacks. Worth updating in the same transaction as the summary.
5. Nothing end to end proves the four aliases reach a customer
TestNewAliasesReachDefaultTierKeys is a regex over the SQL text. It proves the statement was written, not that it lands, and not that the alias appears in /v1/models. Two existing checks would make it real, one line each:
.github/workflows/deploy-demo-box.yml:1681iterates a hardcodedhive-auto hive-default hive-embedding-default hive-fastagainst the deployed/models. The four new ids belong in that loop, otherwise a deploy stays green with the whole restructure invisible..github/workflows/ci.yml:1174checks only thathive-defaultis present on the throwaway database. That job applies the full chain and boots the stack, so it is precisely the check that catches the group-membership class of bug the migration header calls out. Add the four ids there.
Smaller notes
20260822_01_metering_retention_pg_cron_schedule.sqland20260822_01_tenant_email_domains_admin_only.sqlshare a prefix. Not introduced here, but the body's step 1 depends on the chain applying cleanly, so it is worth knowing the ordering between those two is undefined.price_classbudgetandpremiumon the DeepSeek routes are safe:price_classonly affects ordering and fallback filtering (routing/service.go:147and:290), never eligibility, so a single pinned route is unaffected by the class it carries.GROQ_FAST_MODELis arguably as dead asOPENROUTER_DEFAULT_MODELnow. The sync overwritesroute-groq-fast'smodelfromprovider_routes.provider_modelon every deploy, so theos.environ/GROQ_FAST_MODELtemplate in the seed survives only until the first sync. Not a defect, but the.env.examplenote singles out one dead variable and leaves the other looking live.

Adversarial database review, focused on transactional correctness, re-runnability, constraint compliance, the one-alias-one-enabled-route invariant, orphaning, and comment accuracy. Eight findings posted inline, two of them significant.
The two that matter most:
-
Disabling
route-openrouter-autoremoves the only row inprovider_capabilitiescarryingsupports_image_generation,supports_image_editandsupports_batch. Nothing in this migration restores them, so/v1/images/generations,/v1/images/editsand batch submission stop resolving a route for every alias. The header's "WHAT DELIBERATELY DOES NOT CHANGE" section does not mention this. -
No test binds a credit figure to the alias row that carries it. Because
hive-smallandhive-defaultshare 10500/42000 andhive-mediumandhive-autoshare 21000/84000, swappinghive-default's reprice to thehive-mediumpair doubles what customers pay on the default alias and every guard in this PR stays green.
What I checked and found clean, so it is not repeated inline:
- Transactional correctness. Statement order satisfies every foreign key at each step: aliases, then routes, then capabilities, then policies, then group membership, and the second route block references aliases seeded in 20260331_01. Nothing outside the transaction can observe a partial state, and
ListRouteCandidatesinner-joinsprovider_capabilities, so a route is invisible until its capability row lands in the same transaction. - Re-runnability, statement by statement. All five INSERTs name the correct conflict target, each one the table's primary key. All four UPDATE guards are correct. The two jsonb
<>guards specifically:alias_route_policies.fallback_orderisNOT NULL DEFAULT '[]'::jsonb, so there is no NULL that could swallow the predicate, and jsonb array equality is element-wise and order-sensitive, which is the comparison wanted here. A second run touches zero rows and errors on nothing. - Constraint compliance. Every literal is legal:
lifecyclein stable and hidden,visibilitypublic,price_classin standard, budget and premium,policy_modepinned,health_statein healthy and disabled,providerin the two enabledcustom_providersslugs so the foreign key from 20260611_01 holds.price_unitis left at itstokensdefault, which satisfies bothmodel_aliases_price_unit_allowedandmodel_aliases_single_unit_pricefrom 20260801_13. No RLS policy applies to any of these tables. - The one-alias-one-enabled-route invariant holds after apply, for the untouched aliases too. Every alias ends with exactly one route at
health_statenot in disabled or eol, excepthive-embedding-default, which keeps its two healthy OpenRouter routes and is the documented exemption already listed inpendingMultiRouteAliases.TestSeededAliasHasExactlyOneEnabledRoutewill still pass. - Orphaning.
provider_capabilities.route_idis the only foreign key referencingprovider_routes, and disabling rather than deleting leaves it intact. No other table references a route id, no other alias points at either retired route, andmodel_policy_group_memberskeys on alias, not route. - Arithmetic, recomputed independently of the test in the PR. All fourteen DERIVE rows are correct against
ceil(usd * 1.4 * 100000), and0.01278is indeed the only row where the ceiling does anything: 1789.2 rounds up to 1790.

Go review, focused on whether the new guards can actually go red.
Method: copied the workspace to a scratch path inside the toolchain container, mutated the migration there, ran go test ./apps/control-plane/internal/routing/... -count=1 -short. The host tree was not modified. go vet ./apps/control-plane/internal/routing/... is clean and every new test passes unmutated.
Five of six mutations survived, including a 100 percent overcharge on the highest volume alias.
| # | Mutation | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | swap deepseek-v4-flash 8946 and 17892 in the model_aliases INSERT | PASS, undetected |
| 2 | route-groq-small provider_model moved to gpt-oss-120b, price left at 20b rates | PASS, undetected |
| 3 | delete both hive-default DERIVE rows | PASS, undetected |
| 4 | hive-default UPDATE repriced from 10500/42000 to 21000/84000 | PASS, undetected |
| 5 | add a second healthy provider_routes row for hive-small | PASS, undetected |
| 6 | hive-fast visibility flipped to internal | FAIL, caught |
Only mutation 6 was caught. Findings 1 through 5 below are blocking.
…d sanitizer Addresses all five review findings on PR #1007. The serious one: disabling route-openrouter-auto removed the only route in the catalog carrying supports_batch, supports_image_generation and supports_image_edit. 20260414_01 granted those to that one row and nothing has granted them since. SelectRoute skips disabled candidates and then hard filters on each flag, and both the batch submitter and the local executor adapter send NeedBatch for every batch, so this silently deleted three endpoints for every alias, not just for hive-auto. It fails closed, so nothing would have reported it. route-groq-auto now carries all three. supports_batch is a true claim, since the local batch executor does not depend on Groq having a native batch API. The two image flags are carried forward as status quo preservation and are explicitly documented as such: they were already untrue of the previous gpt-4.1-mini, and this migration should not delete two endpoints as a side effect of a repricing. Correcting them needs a real image route and its own decision. A new guard fails when a migration disables the sole carrier of one of these flags without handing them to a replacement, checking the column position rather than merely the column name so an all-false row cannot satisfy it. The sanitizer change is reverted. SanitizeProviderMessage has no production caller, so adding route ids to it changed nothing observable, and the claim in the earlier PR body was wrong. The live boundary in edge-api already scrubs any route slug and any provider-prefixed model generically, so it needed no change. The guard that pointed at the dead function is deleted rather than left to buy false confidence, and a comment now records where the real boundaries are. deepseek-v4-pro joins the premium policy group. It is the most expensive alias in the catalog and the group exists to gate exactly that, while hive-auto, which premium was built around, has just been repriced down. insertedAliases now cross-checks its parsed count against the number of value rows, so reformatting a row onto one line fails loudly instead of silently shrinking what several guards check.

…ing alive Second review pass on PR #1007 found three money-path holes in the guards this PR added, each with a proven surviving mutation, plus a capability regression in the migration itself. All are fixed and all are now covered by a mutation that was run and observed to fail. The guards asserted that a credit figure appeared somewhere in the migration text. That is not the assertion the file claimed to make, and three mispricings passed it: * hive-default repriced to hive-medium's figures stayed green, because both numbers were already present elsewhere in the file. That is a 100 percent overcharge on the alias every request naming no model lands on. * input and output swapped inside one alias tuple stayed green for the same reason. * a route repointed at a costlier upstream model with its price untouched stayed green, because provider_model was checked against the rate snapshot but never against the SQL. That is a 2x undercharge and it is the exact shape of issues #689 and #965. Two more shapes: deleting the hive-default derivation rows shrank the checked set silently, since hive-default is repriced by UPDATE and so fell outside every guard keyed on the INSERT block, and the one-route rule was enforced against the comment table rather than against provider_routes. The fix is a small quote-aware SQL reader, with its own self-test, that parses INSERT tuples and UPDATE assignments into column-keyed rows. Every assertion is now positional against a named column of a named row, and the structural regexes run over comment-stripped SQL so the migration's own prose can neither satisfy nor trip them. Two back-compat checks were also matching across statement boundaries, which let the deprecation marker be applied to a different alias entirely while still reporting hive-fast correctly marked. The migration regression: both replacement routes had supports_reasoning false. An earlier comment argued an under-claim is safe because it only withholds a feature. That is true only for a multi-route alias. Every alias here is pinned to exactly one route, so a narrower replacement means SelectRoute finds zero candidates and returns 422 on any request carrying reasoning_effort. The flag is now true, which is also simply correct for gpt-oss. Cache flags stay false, and the comment now records why that one is safe: no request path ever sets NeedCacheRead or NeedCacheWrite. Also: the two moved aliases kept OpenRouter-derived cache prices that are published through the catalog response while their new routes declare no caching, so both are zeroed. deepseek-v4-pro joins the premium group. Four comments that this PR made untrue are corrected, including the claim that lifecycle is read by nothing, which the web console's catalog table disproves, and two pointing at route-doc-vlm as a migration path for vision traffic when no customer request can select it.
…guards' limit Final review-nit pass on PR #1007. The migration and snapshot USD figures were compared as strings, so 0.3 against 0.30 would have been a false red on a purely cosmetic difference. They are compared as big.Rat now. Rate parsing returns an error instead of calling t.Fatalf. The callers loop with t.Errorf and continue precisely so one bad row does not hide the rest, and a Fatalf inside that loop defeated it. The header now states the limit a reader would otherwise have to discover: this whole file is pinned to one migration filename, so the next migration to reprice these aliases inherits none of these guards. It names the two ways out and why neither is taken here. Also hoists the last regex to package level, drops a stale doc comment, gofmt, and adds the language to a fenced block in the proof README for markdownlint MD040.

A capability flag in a routing path is a claim like a price is, so it should name its source. https://console.groq.com/docs/reasoning, checked 2026-08-22, lists both gpt-oss models as reasoning models and states that reasoning_effort low, medium and high are supported only by GPT-OSS 20B and 120B.

…sing
The existing proof for this change is database-level: a throwaway Postgres
with all 91 migrations applied and psql output showing the catalog rows. That
proves the migration applies. It does not prove a user sees the result, and on
this project a route change has been silently inert more than once, so a green
migration is not evidence the model can be selected.
This adds the live half, captured against a stack built from this branch and
run for the capture: control-plane and edge-api rebuilt from this tree, on a
throwaway migrated Postgres, with litellm, redis and Open WebUI.
What it closes, in order of value:
* POST /internal/litellm/sync regenerates the gateway model_list from
provider_routes.provider_model, and every route resolves to the model the
migration set. The retired route-openrouter-default and
route-openrouter-auto are dropped, which is the behaviour the migration
depends on and which nothing offline covers.
* GET /v1/models serves the new catalog end to end through edge-api.
* The Open WebUI model picker renders all six restructured aliases plus the
deprecated hive-fast.
* hive-small was selected and answered, and usage_events recorded the turn
with real token counts. Listed is not the same as live.
A local full-stack capture, labelled as one throughout. It is not the demo
box, and a deployed capture is still owed after this merges.
No repository file was changed to obtain it, no existing account was touched,
and no shared database was written to.

All three review findings are the same defect class this file exists to prevent: a check that reports green and is structurally incapable of reporting red. 1. loadProviderRates compared fetched_utc with strings.Contains, which returns true for an empty substring. A snapshot omitting fetched_utc, or setting it to "", satisfied both snapshot date checks while comparing nothing, and so did a one character value such as "2", which appears in both compared paths anyway. fetched_utc is now pinned to a full YYYY-MM-DD date before either comparison runs. 2. pricedAliases collected an UPDATE only when it wrote input_price_credits, so an output only reprice reached neither TestEveryPricedAliasHasCompleteDerivation nor TestDeclaredCreditsLandOnTheirOwnAliasRow. On an alias the migration also inserts, the superseded INSERT figure stayed the one asserted against while the later value, the one customers are charged, went unexamined. Either price now qualifies the row. 3. TestDisablingASoleCapabilityCarrierHandsItsFlagsOn matched the literal text health_state = 'disabled'. Writing health_state='disabled', or breaking the assignment across lines, turned the guard into a silent t.Skip while the migration went on disabling the sole carrier of supports_batch, supports_image_generation and supports_image_edit. It now reuses disableRe, which already tolerates arbitrary whitespace and is what TestRetiredRoutesAreDisabledAndRepointed uses for the same statement. Every fix is verified by mutation, with green confirmed on correct input first so the assertion is known to be live. Mutations used: an empty and a one character fetched_utc, an output only reprice of an inserted alias, and a reformatted disable statement with the three sole carrier flags withdrawn. All three passed the entire suite before these changes and fail it after.
…1012) Adds the customer-facing alias `openrouter-auto` ("Openrouter Auto (Task Aware)") routed to OpenRouter `openrouter/auto-beta`, and bills it at the ACTUAL per-request upstream cost rather than a fixed catalog price. The owner chose actual cost explicitly when the alternative offered was a fixed ceiling price. `auto-beta` is a router. It picks a different upstream model per request, so OpenRouter's models endpoint reports `prompt: -1, completion: -1` for it. Our `model_aliases` table carries one fixed input/output price pair per alias and both the credit hold and the settled charge derive from it, so any single number written into those columns is wrong on nearly every request. ## This alias does not work in chat until the LiteLLM pin moves Stated up front because it changes how this PR should be read. Measured, not inferred: on the pinned `v1.77.7-stable`, the STREAMING terminal usage chunk carries no cost at all. LiteLLM reconstructs the usage object from its own schema and drops unknown keys. Chat through Open WebUI streams, so on today's pin every streamed request against this alias takes the fail-closed path and is charged the hold. The pin bump to `v1.98.0` lands as its own small, independently revertible PR with live on-box evidence. Merge order: the deploy agent's `deploy/docker/` work, then the pin bump, then this. ## What was PROVED versus INFERRED Separated deliberately so a later reader can tell which claims were measured. **PROVED** by standing the real LiteLLM images up against a fake OpenRouter returning a known cost of `0.0123456`, and observing both directions: | Version | sync `usage.cost` | streaming `usage.cost` | `gen-` id | |---|---|---|---| | `v1.77.7-stable` (current pin) | preserved | DESTROYED | preserved | | `v1.83.14-stable` (newest tagged stable) | preserved | DESTROYED | preserved | | `v1.98.0` (immutable tag, not a `-stable` release) | preserved | preserved | preserved | Also proved: `usage: {include: true}` reaches the provider even with `drop_params: true` set, both when injected via config `extra_body` and when sent by a client. The repo's real `deploy/litellm/config.yaml` boots on `v1.98.0` and resolves all 9 routes to the same models. LiteLLM strips the leading `openrouter/` as its provider selector, which is why both the config and `provider_model` carry the doubled prefix. **INFERRED**, and still needing real providers to confirm: - That `openrouter/auto-beta` behaves in production the way the fake modelled it, in particular that it returns a `cost` on every successful generation. - That `provider.max_price` genuinely bounds the rate in practice. This comes from OpenRouter's auto-router documentation, which states the ceiling still applies to the router and is enforced after it resolves a model, failing the request rather than routing to a pricier endpoint. Not measured by me. - The 200000 credit hold is derived from that documented ceiling, so it inherits the same status. ## The proxy-cost trap, and why the warning is written as a rule `x-litellm-response-cost` looks authoritative and is not. On `v1.77.7-stable` it returned `0.0105` against a real `0.0123456`: LiteLLM's own static price-map guess ($3/$15 per million) for a router model it cannot price. Those numbers are version-specific. By `v1.83.14` that header returns the provider figure on the sync path. Stating the trap as permanent would read as wrong to anyone checking on a newer version, and a warning that reads as wrong gets ignored along with everything near it. The durable rule, which is what is written into `upstream_cost.go` where someone would reach for it: > Never take a cost from a proxy-computed field when a provider-reported one is available. The proxy falls back silently to its own price map, and a router model has no entry in it. A third instance of the same family: on a streaming request `v1.83.14` returns `x-litellm-response-cost-original: 0.0`. A confident zero is worse than an absent value, because an absent value can be caught and a zero bills nothing. That is exactly the shape that served this gateway free for three days in July, and it is why the parser here reports "zero" and "absent" as two different errors. ## Invariants, and where each is proved Every test below was verified to FAIL when the behaviour it guards is broken. That is not a claim: 13 mutations were applied to the implementation and all 13 killed their test. Results are in the review comments. **1. A request must NEVER settle at zero because the cost lookup failed, returned null, or was not attempted.** `UpstreamActualSettlement` returns the full hold, flagged unconfirmed, for every failure shape. The only path that charges zero is the one where nothing was produced at all. `TestFreeServeGuardNeverSettlesAtZero` covers the three cases as three separate cases: the lookup returns null, the lookup errors on an unreadable body, and the lookup never happened because the stream ended before the usage frame arrived. That third one is what a timeout looks like here: the cost is carried in band, so there is no separate call to time out, and an aborted stream simply leaves no bytes. Testing it as "no bytes" is the honest mapping rather than inventing a network timeout. Mutation M1 (return 0 instead of the hold) kills it. **2. A request must never settle below what the upstream charged plus margin.** `CreditsForUpstreamCost` is cost x 7/5 x 100000, and `TestCreditsForUpstreamCostMagnitude` asserts exact figures against a known cost, never "greater than zero", because a non-zero assertion is satisfied by the 1-credit floor. Mutations M2 (drop the margin) and M3 (truncate instead of rounding half up) both kill it. **3. The reservation must never under-reserve.** The hold comes from the catalog row (200000) rather than the flat endpoint default (10000), on all four dispatch paths including the Open WebUI chat path, with the endpoint default as a floor so it can only ever raise a hold. `enforcePolicy` under `PolicyModeStrict` then refuses when the hold exceeds available credits. `TestReservationCreditsCannotUnderReserve` and the end-to-end hold assertion cover it; mutations M4 and W2 kill them. Stated honestly rather than papered over: a CONFIRMED settlement bills in full past the hold by existing deliberate design (`finalizeLocked`), so a request costing more than the hold can still take a balance negative. That is true of every alias today and is not introduced here. What is new is that `provider.max_price` bounds the rate, so the overshoot is finite rather than unbounded. **4. Settlement is idempotent and the ledger stays append only.** Unchanged. Everything still routes through `finalizeLocked`, which already guarantees this with a terminal-status guard, a per-account lock and ledger idempotency keys. This PR adds no new settlement path and no new ledger write. **5. All arithmetic uses math/big, never float64.** `ParseUpstreamCost` reads the cost as `json.Number` and hands the literal to `big.Rat`, so no binary float touches a money figure. `TestParseUpstreamCostReadsCostExactlyAndCapturesAuditHandles` uses a decimal whose float64 round-trip does not compare equal; mutation M6 (parse via `Float64()`) kills it. **6. Provider-blind errors, and the chosen model never reaches the customer.** The tension the brief named is handled on both sides. Internally: the upstream generation id (`gen-...`) is recorded as the audit handle, which is what lets anyone recover the exact model OpenRouter chose. Externally: the cost is parsed out of the raw bytes into a private struct and never added to `UsageResponse`, because the `normalize*` functions re-marshal that struct straight to the customer. `TestVariablePriceStreaming_LeaksNeitherCostNorChosenModelToTheClient` asserts the client body contains the completion text but none of the chosen model, the provider, the cost value, or the cost fields. Mutation W3 (remove the alias overwrite) kills it. Per the owner's decision, the alias NAME deliberately identifies the provider, so no machinery hides the string "openrouter" there. Error messages remain provider-blind. ## Schema Prices go NULL rather than 0 because 0 is already meaningful: `routing.Service` refuses an alias whose prices are both zero, and `RouteInfo.HasCostBasis` reads the same condition. The Go readers scan these columns into non-pointer `int64`, so a NULL is a hard pgx scan error and any reader not taught about variable pricing fails loudly and closed rather than charging zero. A CHECK binds `pricing_mode`, the prices and the hold together so the database itself refuses an inconsistent row. One correction to a claim I made earlier and want on the record: changing `CatalogPricing` to pointers does NOT make the compiler enumerate every reader. It enumerated the readers inside control-plane, but edge-api has its own parallel structs decoded from JSON across an HTTP boundary, where a mismatch surfaces as a runtime decode failure instead. Those were found and updated by hand. `apps/edge-api/internal/catalog/client.go` mattered most: it backs the `/v1/models` snapshot, so one nulled alias decoding into a plain `int64` would have taken down model listing for every model. ## Two places a nulled price would have gone unnoticed - The deploy-box price assertion filtered on `input_price_credits > 0`. `NULL > 0` is NULL, not true, so this route would have dropped out of the guard silently while the check went on reporting green. It needs that assertion more than a fixed-price route does, not less. The predicate now names the mode. - `apps/web-console/lib/control-plane/client.ts` coerced a missing price to 0 with `?? 0`, which rendered a variable-price alias as free in the admin catalog. It now carries null through and the table shows "Variable". ## Tension with D-032 D-032 says one model, one price, at the alias level, and that simplicity wins. `openrouter-auto` is deliberately not one model. This does not revoke D-032: it adds one explicitly discriminated exception, and the discriminator is what keeps every existing fixed-price alias on exactly the path D-032 describes. Keying settlement on the alias's pricing mode rather than on the provider also means a second variable-cost upstream arrives later as a catalog row rather than a code change. ## Known dependency `deploy/docker/docker-compose.yml` seeds `deploy/litellm/config.yaml` into a named volume only `if [ ! -f /etc/litellm/config.yaml ]`, so the route added here is inert on a box that already has the volume. That defect is owned by the agent working on `deploy/docker/` and is referenced here so the dependency is visible. ## Verification - `go build` and `go vet` clean across control-plane and edge-api. - Full Go suites green: `go test ./apps/edge-api/... ./apps/control-plane/... -count=1 -short`. - `npm run build` green for web-console. - Web-console unit tests: 530 passed, 1 failed, and that one failure is pre-existing and environmental. `chat-coverage-lib.test.ts` and `control-plane-host.test.ts` resolve `REPO_ROOT` outside `/app`, which the web-console image does not contain, so they ENOENT in the container regardless of this diff. Neither touches pricing. ## What changed after review The adversarial review found four defects that were shipping a plausible number instead of a refusal, plus a leak. All are fixed and each has its own resolved thread; the short version: - **The hold never decoded.** `ReservationResult` read `estimated_credits`; the control plane publishes `reserved_credits`. So every fail-closed settlement charged one credit rather than the hold, which is the free-serve bug reintroduced. My own end-to-end test missed it because the mock echoed the key the struct wanted rather than the key production sends. - **An oversized cost wrapped instead of refusing.** `big.Int.Int64()` is undefined when the value does not fit; a reported cost of 1e20 became a negative, hit the one-credit floor, and settled confirmed. - **An unbounded numeric literal went straight to `big.Rat`**, making parse cost the caller's to choose. - **Both streaming relays published our cost.** The chat relay forwards every frame verbatim by design, and the typed relay has a raw-line fallback that bypasses the discard it relies on. One sanitizer now serves both. - **The Responses streaming path never captured the usage frame at all**, so a variable-price alias could only ever fail closed there. Plus: `pricing_mode` was never populated by either catalog builder; the metering gate would have graded a variable-price request not_billable; an empty frame reported as unparseable rather than absent; the settlement-path panic is now a fail-closed return, because a panic there fires during deferred unwinding and strands the hold; and the migration now runs in one transaction with a lock timeout, converges on re-run for the money columns, and covers the cache price columns in its shape CHECK. ## Correction to two claims this PR made earlier Both were wrong in the dangerous direction and are worth recording rather than quietly editing: 1. **"The compiler enumerates every reader."** Only inside control-plane. edge-api has parallel structs decoded from JSON across an HTTP boundary; those were found by hand. 2. **"A JSON null into a non-pointer int64 fails loudly."** False. Verified against Go's own decoder: it is a documented no-op leaving 0 with no error. The SQL boundary does fail loudly via pgx; the JSON boundary does not. That makes the pointer types load-bearing rather than defensive, because the old shape would have silently priced this alias at zero. ## Merge order 1. **#1043**, the LiteLLM pin bump. Required: on the current pin the streaming path never sees a cost, so every streamed request would fail closed. It carries live before-and-after evidence from the demo box. 2. This PR. 3. A one-line follow-up flipping the alias from `internal` to `public`. ## Visual proof NOT captured, and the reason changed during review. This PR no longer touches a user-visible surface. The alias is seeded `internal`, not `public`, so it does not appear in the model picker or in `/v1/models` at all. That was done to close a deploy-ordering hazard (migrations apply before the new binaries, and the old binary would fail its list-query scan on a NULL-priced public row, taking `/v1/models` down for every model), and it doubles as the gate keeping the alias unreachable until the pin bump lands. So the picker capture belongs to the follow-up PR that flips it to `public`, and that is where it should be demanded. What that capture must show, per rule 8 and the bar set by #1007: the alias in the picker, the model answering live, and the turn recorded in `usage_events` with a charge derived from the reported cost rather than from the hold. What does exist today, in place of a screenshot, is live evidence from the demo box that the mechanism this PR depends on works there: with the pin at `v1.98.0`, a real streamed completion on the box's OpenRouter route returned `usage.cost` of `2.05e-06`, where the current pin returns nothing. That is recorded in #1043 with the before-and-after. It is not a substitute for the picker capture and is not offered as one. ## Buglog entry ```json {"id":"bug-2026-08-22-litellm-drops-streaming-cost","date":"2026-08-22","title":"LiteLLM v1.77.7-stable destroys OpenRouter's reported per-request cost on the streaming path","error_message":"Streaming terminal usage chunk arrives with prompt/completion/total tokens only; usage.cost and usage.cost_details present in the upstream response are absent by the time the chunk reaches edge-api","root_cause":"LiteLLM reconstructs the usage object from its own schema when relaying SSE rather than passing the provider's usage object through, so any key it does not declare is dropped.

The 2026-08-17 measurement predates #1007, which restructured the customer-facing model catalog. /api/models is the heaviest request in that waterfall, so a catalog change is exactly the sort of thing that could have invalidated the result. It did not. This run also removes the interception harness. Both arms are a complete local stack (self-hosted Supabase data plane, control-plane, edge-api, web-console, Open WebUI), signed in through a real OAuth authorization-code round trip, with only the chat bundle and the Caddy config differing between them. Serial dependency waves fall from five, five, four, four, five to one, two, two, two, two across five runs per arm, and immutable assets go from being served with no caching policy to a year with immutable. The earlier measurement is kept, not withdrawn: it is the larger, paired sample against the real deployment and remains the honest figure for the wall-clock size of the win, which loopback understates.

They are semantic aliases kept for back-compat, not distinct capabilities. Their stale OpenRouter-derived cache prices are zeroed too, since both now sit on routes declaring no cache support and those columns are published throughcatalog.CatalogPricing.Why the Compound repoints are absent
The directive originally asked for these two to move to
groq/compound-miniandgroq/compound. They do not, because Compound has no per-token price to derive from. Groq's model table shows—for both, andhttps://console.groq.com/docs/compound/systems/compound-ministates verbatim: "Final pricing depends on which underlying models and tools are used for your specific query." It then itemises charges that are not per-token: basic web search $5/1000 requests, advanced $8/1000, visit website $1/1000, code execution $0.18/hour.model_aliasesstores one input/output credit pair andprecedence.gocharges from it. On a representative 2000-in/500-out request the token cost is about $0.0006 while two basic web searches cost $0.010, so the tool fee is roughly sixteen times the token cost. Pricing Compound from its underlying model's token rate would not undercharge slightly, it would price the wrong thing.Both aliases still leave OpenRouter, because OpenRouter costs real money out of pocket while Groq is currently free to us. They move to the plain per-token Groq models this PR already adds, needing no new pricing machinery.
Tracked in #1006, which also records that Compound responses report executed tools on
choices[0].message.executed_tools, so variable-cost settlement is mechanically possible once that machinery exists.hive-autois named there as its intended home.Single-provider concentration, an accepted trade-off
Every non-embedding chat alias except the two DeepSeek ones now routes to Groq. If Groq has an outage the chat surface is down. The one-alias-one-price rule means there are no fallback routes to absorb it, and this PR additionally removes the two gateway-level chat fallbacks, because a fallback answers from a different upstream model than the alias was priced against, breaking that rule one layer below the catalog where the price cannot see it. Deliberate choice of correct billing over silent availability.

The most important review point in the diff.

Both entries carry an OpenRouter-specificextra_body.providerblock. Repointing those route ids at Groq would leave it attached and send OpenRouter's vendor routing object to Groq on every default-model request, with no sync able to remove it.

The model picker then rendered all six restructured aliases plushive-fast, andhive-smallwas selected and answered live throughroute-groq-small, metered inusage_events. A demo-box capture is still owed once this merges and deploys.Note the invariant query returns

The first version of these guards asserted a credit figure appeared somewhere in the file, and review proved three mispricings passed it. All are now covered by a mutation that was run and observed to fail:

Two survived on first attempt and both are recorded below rather than quietly fixed.
Honest limits, stated in the file header rather than left to be discovered: these guards are pinned to one migration filename, so the next migration to reprice these aliases inherits none of them. They also cannot see a model the provider decommissions or reprices after the snapshot date, which was issue #965 exactly.
sanitize.gois unchanged. An earlier revision of this PR added the new route ids to it and the body claimed that prevented a leak. Review establishedSanitizeProviderMessagehas no production caller at all, so that change was inert and the claim was false. The live boundary,edge-api/internal/errors/provider_blind.go, already scrubs any route slug and any provider-prefixed model generically. A comment now records where the real boundaries are, including thatbatchstore/executor/dispatcher.gohas no route-slug pattern and is a genuine pre-existing gap, filed separately rather than folded into a catalog PR.Full suite: 78 packages pass, 0 fail, across

That is an explicit owner decision taken after the provider-blind convention inCLAUDE.mdwas raised, scoped to these two alias names only. Please do not block on it.

Two pairs of aliases share prices by design, so another alias's tuple satisfied the search. Nothing bound a figure to its own alias or to the column it belonged in, and the repriced aliases were UPDATEd rather than INSERTed so they fell outside every guard keyed on the INSERT block. A third variant let a route be repointed at a costlier upstream model because provider_model was validated against the rate snapshot but never against the SQL.","fix":"Added a quote-aware SQL reader (sqlparse_test.go, with its own self-test) that parses INSERT tuples and UPDATE assignments into column-keyed rows. Every assertion is now positional: the DERIVE figure is compared against that column of that alias's row, across both INSERTs and reprice UPDATEs, and each DERIVE route is checked against the provider_routes tuple for provider_model and provider.

A catalog restructure retired that route as part of a provider move, treating it as a per-alias change, when it was the sole carrier of three capabilities used by other aliases. matchesRequestedCapabilities hard-filters on each flag and the submitter sends NeedBatch for every batch, so the failure was total and silent: it fails closed, producing a gateway refusal rather than an error anything reports.","fix":"Carried all three flags onto the replacement route-groq-auto, with supports_batch a true claim via the local batch executor and the two image flags documented as status-quo preservation of an over-claim that predated the change.

For a route id containing a provider token, the catch-all 'groq' replacement rewrites the middle of the string, so the full id stops matching and the token is gone, yet the output is still a mangled internal identifier.
