feat(backend): support OpenAI-compatible gateways for key verification#153XiaoHuo888-hue wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
verifyOpenRouterApiKey now falls back to GET {baseURL}/models when the
OpenRouter-specific /key endpoint returns 404, so OpenAI-compatible gateways
that don't implement /key (e.g. OrcaRouter) pass local-setup verification.
Model fetching and AI calls already honor OPENROUTER_BASE_URL.
Documents OrcaRouter (https://www.orcarouter.ai) as a drop-in gateway in the
README: set OPENROUTER_BASE_URL=https://api.orcarouter.ai/v1 and paste an
sk-orca- key into the setup screen. OrcaRouter uses the same provider/model id
format as OpenRouter, so default slugs (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) work as-is.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe README documents OrcaRouter as an OpenAI-compatible alternative gateway. It adds the optional Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change is generally mergeable, but the fallback should require an actual successful model-list response, and the documentation should clarify the gateway response contract; otherwise some gateways could be accepted incorrectly or display incomplete model settings. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4✅ Passed checks (4 passed)

OpenRouter API /key endpoint invalid API key HTTP status documentation
💡 Result:
For the OpenRouter API, an invalid or missing API key typically triggers an HTTP 401 Unauthorized status code [1][2][3]. According to official OpenRouter documentation, the following details apply to authentication-related errors: 1. HTTP Status Code: 401 Unauthorized [1][2][3]. 2. Error Cause: This status indicates that the API key is missing, invalid, or has been revoked [1][2]. 3. Canonical Error Type: Failed authentication attempts are categorized under the authentication error type [1][2]. 4. Response Format: When this error occurs, the API typically returns a JSON response containing an error object with a code and a message (e.g., Missing Authentication header) [3]. If you are encountering errors while using the /key endpoint (typically used to verify key status or retrieve key information), the API will similarly reject requests that do not provide valid authentication credentials with a 401 status [3]. If a key is valid but lacks the necessary permissions or is blocked by a guardrail, the API will return a 403 Forbidden status [1][2]. If your key is valid but has insufficient credits, you will receive a 402 Payment Required status [1][2].

OrcaRouter API /v1/models invalid API key HTTP status authentication documentation
💡 Result:
When accessing the OrcaRouter API, including the /v1/models endpoint, an invalid or missing API key results in an HTTP 401 Unauthorized status [1]. For authentication, OrcaRouter requires that you pass your API key (which follows the format sk-orca-...) in the Authorization header using the Bearer scheme [2][3]: Authorization: Bearer sk-orca-... Additional details regarding OrcaRouter API errors and status codes include: 1. Authentication Errors: HTTP 401 is specifically returned for missing or invalid API keys [1]. 2. Other Common Status Codes: - 400 Bad Request: Used for invalid parameters, missing required fields, or schema violations [1]. - 403 Forbidden: Returned for insufficient quota or when a key lacks permission to access a specific model [1]. - 404 Not Found: Returned when the requested endpoint or model does not exist [1]. - 429 Too Many Requests: Indicates that rate limits have been exceeded; the response will include a Retry-After header [1]. - 502 Bad Gateway: Occurs when all upstream provider attempts (including fallback chains) fail [1]. - 503 Service Unavailable: Returned if the requested model is temporarily unavailable upstream [1]. If you are experiencing issues with the /v1/models endpoint, ensure that your base URL is correctly configured as https://api.orcarouter.ai/v1 [2][4]. Misconfigured base URLs (e.g., missing /v1 or adding extra path components) are a common source of routing errors [5].

Require HTTP 200 from the /models fallback.
response.ok accepts all 2xx statuses, including 204, so the fallback can succeed without returning a model list. Keep the gateway-specific invalid-key behavior explicit when supporting additional gateways.

OpenRouter API /models output_modalities supported_parameters query parameters response pricing context_length OpenAI-compatible gateway
💡 Result:
OpenRouter provides a unified, OpenAI-compatible API that aggregates access to hundreds of AI models through a single endpoint [1][2]. Model Discovery and Query Parameters The OpenRouter Models API allows you to programmatically discover and filter the model catalog via the /api/v1/models endpoint [3][1]. Key query parameters for this endpoint include: - output_modalities: Filters models by capabilities (e.g., text, image, audio, embeddings). Accepts a comma-separated list or "all"; defaults to "text" [4][3][5]. - supported_parameters: Filters models by the OpenAI-compatible parameters they support (e.g., tools, max_tokens, temperature, seed) [4][6][7]. - sort: Server-side sorting of models based on metrics like pricing, context length, latency, or popularity [3][7]. API Capabilities and Parameters OpenRouter's chat completions API is designed as a drop-in replacement for the OpenAI API [1][2]. It supports standard OpenAI parameters alongside additional features: - Core Parameters: Includes max_tokens, temperature, top_p, tools, tool_choice, and response_format [8][9][10]. - Advanced Parameters: Supports parameters such as seed, frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, logit_bias, top_k, min_p, and top_a [8][9][10]. - Plugins: OpenRouter supports plugins to extend model capabilities, such as web search (web), PDF parsing (file-parser), response healing (response-healing), and context compression [8][10]. - Provider Routing: Users can customize request routing using the provider object, which allows filtering or sorting based on price, throughput, or latency [11]. Pricing and Context - Context Length: The maximum context length (in tokens) is provided as metadata for each model in the /models response [4][7]. - Pricing: Pricing information is included in the model metadata [4][7]. Token counts and costs are calculated using the model's native tokenizer [8][9]. Historical usage, including token counts and costs for a specific generation, can be queried via the /api/v1/generation endpoint using the returned generation ID [8][9]. Gateway and Compatibility OpenRouter acts as an OpenAI-compatible gateway [1][2]. You can point the standard OpenAI SDK (or any other OpenAI-compatible library) directly at OpenRouter’s base URL to use its model catalog without significant code changes [1]. It also offers specific SDKs and an Agent SDK for more complex use cases like multi-turn conversations and tool execution [1].

Limit OPENROUTER_BASE_URL to gateways with BigSet’s model metadata contract.
fetchModelsFromOpenRouter() expects /models entries with id, context_length, and pricing.prompt/completion. Missing metadata becomes 0 and appears in the model settings. Replace any OpenAI-compatible gateway with supported gateways, or document this required response contract and query-parameter support.

Description
Makes BigSet's local-setup key verification work with OpenAI-compatible model
gateways that don't implement OpenRouter's
/keyendpoint, and documentsOrcaRouter as a drop-in gateway.
verifyOpenRouterApiKeynow falls back toGET {baseURL}/modelswhen/keyreturns 404. OrcaRouter (and other OpenAI-compatible gateways) respond to
/modelswith200for a valid key and401for an invalid one, so the same"rejected / verification failed" semantics are preserved. This is a no-op for
OpenRouter itself.
I'm an engineer on the OrcaRouter team.
Motivation and Context
BigSet already routes LLM calls and model fetches through the configurable
OPENROUTER_BASE_URL(defaulthttps://openrouter.ai/api/v1), and OrcaRoutermodel ids use the same
provider/modelformat as OpenRouter — BigSet's defaultslugs (e.g.
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) resolve as-is. The only blocker forusing an OpenAI-compatible gateway was the
/keyverification path. Thischange lifts that blocker and documents OrcaRouter as a supported option.
