Summary

Enables Codex Fast on OpenRouter for the OpenAI-backed slugs this repo ships — and corrects what #1886 specified for this provider, with the vendor documentation that retires it.

The umbrella's route pin is withdrawn, on evidence

#1886 required an atomic pin: only inject a tier alongside provider: { only: [...], allow_fallbacks: false }, so a tier could never reach an upstream that would silently bill for it. OpenRouter's own docs both remove the motivation and show the proposal would not have worked:

  • Tier endpoints are separate suffixed slugs (openai/priority, google-vertex/flex) and are explicitly not matched by base slugs. Pinning only: ["openai"] would have excluded the very endpoint that serves priority.
  • Priority tries tier endpoints first and falls back otherwise, and billing always follows the endpoint actually used — so the silent-overbilling risk the pin existed to prevent does not arise.
  • The response reports the tier actually served (default / flex / priority / null).

Pinning would therefore have converted a graceful capacity fallback into a hard failure while protecting against nothing. Downgrade safety rests on B0's confirmation model instead, which was built for exactly this contract. I'll update #1886's text to match.

What lands

  • Capability: exact-model true for openai/gpt-5.6-{sol,terra,luna}. The provider stays unclassified, and anthropic/claude-sonnet-5 is left out — OpenRouter does not list Anthropic among its priority upstreams.
  • Destination-guarded capability: a provider merely named openrouter but pointed at someone's own gateway must not inherit evidence gathered about openrouter.ai. Because OpenRouter's endpoint is fixed (a configured base URL is ignored at route time), the guard reads the operator's configured base URL, not the routed one — and catalog and runtime are both fed that same configured value, so A1's one-resolver invariant holds and the catalog cannot advertise what the runtime would withhold (or vice versa).
  • Chat response tier echo: the Chat surface now reads the upstream service_tier, closing the gap B0 left open. Without it, every OpenRouter Fast request would have recorded assumed even when OpenRouter told us it fell back to standard. Absence of the field still means assumed — never a fabricated downgrade.
  • Honest pricing: a confirmed priority result with no bundled tier price bills at the standard rate but is flagged a floor, since OpenRouter documents priority as "faster, higher cost". Scoped to canonical priority only; flex is cheaper, so the same argument would be false there.

A wrong turn worth recording

The first attempt scoped capability with the registry's existing preserveCustomDestination flag. It worked — but that flag also decides provider claiming and hosted-tool preference validation, and the full suite caught it changing which configs openrouter accepts (config.test.ts and management-provider-validation.test.ts, both sub-millisecond assertion failures, not flakes). The destination guard replaces it and touches nothing outside FastWire.

UI

Logs table: a confirmed-priority OpenRouter request shown as a floor next to a declined downgrade and a standard request

Three seeded OpenRouter requests on openai/gpt-5.6-sol. The upstream echo decides the rendering: service_tier: "priority" gives ≥$0.1105 (standard rate, marked a floor because OpenRouter publishes no bundled tier price), service_tier: "default" is a real downgrade and gets no marker, and a request that never asked for Fast stays ~$0.1105. All three totals match on purpose — only the marker differs.

Verification

Known convergence point

The pricing floor here is keyed on the provider id, while the parallel xAI unit (#2072, not yet merged) makes priority pricing declarative. When both land, these two paths should collapse into one declarative rule — noted so it is a planned follow-up rather than an oversight.

Part of #1886.

…te pinning

Phase B2 of the FastWire umbrella (lidge-jun#1886), and a documented
correction to what that issue proposed.

The umbrella specified an atomic route pin for OpenRouter — only inject a tier
alongside `provider: { only: [...], allow_fallbacks: false }` — to stop a tier
reaching an upstream that would silently bill for it. OpenRouter's own
documentation retires that requirement, and shows the proposal would not even
have worked:

- Tier endpoints are separate suffixed slugs (`openai/priority`), and they are
  explicitly NOT matched by base slugs. Pinning `only: ["openai"]` would have
  excluded the very endpoint that serves priority.
- Priority tries tier endpoints first and falls back otherwise, and billing
  always follows the endpoint actually used — so the silent-overbilling risk the
  pin existed to prevent does not exist.
- The response reports the tier actually served.

Pinning would therefore have turned a graceful capacity fallback into a hard
failure while protecting against nothing. Downgrade safety instead rests on B0's
confirmation model, which was built for exactly this contract.

What this adds:

- The three OpenAI-backed slugs we ship get exact-model capability. The provider
  stays unclassified, and `anthropic/claude-sonnet-5` is left out because
  OpenRouter does not list Anthropic among its priority upstreams.
- Registry model capability is now guarded by destination. A provider merely
  named `openrouter` but pointed at someone's own gateway must not inherit
  evidence gathered about openrouter.ai, and OpenRouter's endpoint is fixed, so
  the guard reads the operator's configured base URL rather than the routed one.
  Catalog and runtime both feed it that same configured value, keeping A1's
  one-resolver invariant intact.
- The Chat surface finally reads the upstream's `service_tier` echo, closing the
  gap B0 left open. Without it every OpenRouter Fast request would have recorded
  `assumed` even when OpenRouter told us it had fallen back to standard.
- A confirmed priority result with no bundled tier price is now billed at the
  standard rate but flagged a floor rather than silently reported as exact:
  OpenRouter documents priority as "faster, higher cost", so standard is provably
  a lower bound. Scoped to canonical priority only — flex is cheaper, so the same
  argument would be false there.

A first attempt scoped capability with the registry's `preserveCustomDestination`
flag. It worked, but that flag also decides provider claiming and hosted-tool
preference validation, and the full suite caught it changing which configs
`openrouter` accepts. The destination guard above replaces it and touches
nothing outside FastWire.

Full suite: 13361 pass / 10 skip / 1 fail — the pre-existing dev-side
key-login-live-update regression, which reproduces on pristine dev.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

OpenRouter Fast support now uses canonical model capabilities, observes response service tiers, marks confirmed priority estimates as standard-price lower bounds, and displays that status in localized logs.

Changes

OpenRouter Fast capability and policy flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Canonical capability declaration
src/providers/registry.ts, src/providers/derive.ts, src/config.ts
OpenRouter service-tier support applies only to three OpenAI GPT-5.6 model slugs and canonical OpenRouter destinations.
Policy and routing integration
src/providers/service-tier.ts, src/router.ts, src/routing/compatibility/behavior.ts, src/codex/catalog/provider-fetch.ts
Policy authority and routing use the applicable registry capability and selected provider configuration.
Capability validation
tests/service-tier-capability.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/providers.md
Tests and documentation cover supported models, overrides, noncanonical destinations, request injection, and response behavior.

Response tier observation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Adapter metadata capture
src/adapters/base.ts, src/adapters/openai-chat.ts
Stream and buffered parsers record service_tier values and mark malformed responses as unparseable.
Response-path wiring
src/server/responses/core.ts
Initial and continuation parsing receives active tier metadata.
Observability tests
tests/fastwire-observability.test.ts
Tests cover stream and non-stream parsing through the Responses bridge for priority, default, and absent tiers.

Lower-bound pricing and log display

Layer / File(s) Summary
Cost estimate propagation
src/usage/cost.ts, src/server/management/shared.ts
Confirmed OpenRouter priority outcomes set priorityLowerBound, propagate it through aggregate estimates, and expose priority_lower_bound in estimate reasons.
Log formatting and aggregation
gui/src/pages/logs-cost-format.ts, gui/src/pages/Logs.tsx
Lower-bound totals use a prefix. Filtered totals and detailed cost values preserve the lower-bound flag.
Localized message catalog
gui/src/i18n/*.ts
Translations were added for approximate, lower-bound, unavailable, and priority lower-bound estimate states.
Pricing tests and evidence
gui/tests/logs-priority-lower-bound.test.ts, tests/fastwire-observability.test.ts, devlog/_plan/260818_fastwire_b2_openrouter/evidence/README.md
Tests and evidence cover lower-bound formatting, downgraded responses, and provider-specific pricing behavior.

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

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9cd3c

The PR enables OpenRouter Fast handling and adds cost-tier display behavior, but two user-visible pricing issues remain: some locales may show currency formatting or labels incorrectly, and conversation totals may be presented as guaranteed lower bounds when they include ordinary estimates. Merge should wait for these issues to be resolved or explicitly accepted.

Screenshot evidence for lidge-jun#2080: the Logs table showing a
confirmed-priority OpenRouter request rendered as a floor (≥$) next to a
response-declined downgrade and a standard request (~$).

Taking this screenshot is what surfaced two defects the test suites missed: the
lower-bound marker disagreed with the parallel xAI unit's rendering, and the fix
for it initially reached only the detail panel because the table cell had its own
inline formatter. Both paths now share one implementation.

Require all included estimates to be lower bounds before marking the total.

Line 355 uses ||=, so one lower-bound estimate marks the entire conversation total as a lower bound. If the filtered logs contain one lower-bound estimate and one ordinary estimate, the sum is displayed with even though part of the sum is only an estimate.

Track whether at least one priced estimate exists and whether every included estimate has priorityLowerBound === true. Set the aggregate flag only when both conditions are true. Add a mixed-estimate regression test.

Proposed aggregation fix
-  let priorityLowerBound = false;
+  let priorityLowerBound = true;
+  let pricedEstimates = 0;
...
-      priorityLowerBound ||= cost?.kind === "value" && cost.estimate.priorityLowerBound === true;
+      pricedEstimates += 1;
+      priorityLowerBound &&= cost?.kind === "value" && cost.estimate.priorityLowerBound === true;
...
-    priorityLowerBound,

Addressed all current review findings in d49538c and 9cd3c1c. Estimated costs now use one shared Intl USD formatter with typed i18n labels and translated locale values. Conversation totals are marked as lower bounds only when at least one priced estimate exists and every priced estimate is a lower bound; mixed, all-lower-bound, and unpriced-only cases are covered. Verification: focused cost and locale tests 18 pass / 0 fail; full root suite 13,416 pass / 10 skip / 0 fail across 852 files; full GUI suite 951 pass / 0 fail across 165 files; GUI lint, i18n lint, build, app typecheck, and diff check pass. Please re-review the updated head.
