* feat(router): add auto_router/quality_router for quality-tier routing (#25987)
* feat(router): add auto_router/quality_router for quality-tier routing
Adds a new auto-router type that routes a request to a model at a target
quality tier. The quality tier is inferred by re-using the existing
ComplexityRouter's classification, then mapped through an admin-configured
complexity_to_quality table. Each candidate model declares its own
quality_tier in model_info.litellm_routing_preferences.
Resolution strategy: exact tier match, else round up to the next higher
tier, else fall back to default_model.

* feat(quality_router): add capability-based filtering
Each deployment can declare a `capabilities: List[str]` field in
`model_info.litellm_routing_preferences` (e.g. ["vision",
"function_calling"]). Requests can pass `litellm_capabilities` in
`request_kwargs` to require specific capabilities — the router will only
route to deployments whose declared capabilities are a superset.
Resolution still walks tier (exact → round up), but at each tier filters
by capability before picking. Falls back to default_model only when it
also satisfies the required capabilities; otherwise raises rather than
silently routing to a model that lacks a required capability.

* feat(quality_router): expose routing decision in response headers
For transparency, expose the QualityRouter's routing decision in the
proxy response headers:
x-litellm-quality-router-model → picked model_name (e.g. "haiku-vision")
x-litellm-quality-router-tier → resolved quality tier (e.g. "1")
x-litellm-quality-router-complexity → ComplexityTier name (e.g. "SIMPLE")
Mechanism: the pre-routing hook stashes the decision in
request_kwargs["metadata"]["quality_router_decision"]. After the call
returns, Router.set_response_headers lifts the decision into
response._hidden_params["additional_headers"] alongside the existing
x-litellm-model-group / x-litellm-model-id headers. Existing metadata
keys (trace_id, user_id, etc.) are preserved.

* feat(quality_router): replace capabilities with keyword override
Drops the capability-based filtering in favor of a keyword-based override
for v0:
- RoutingPreferences.keywords: List[str] (replaces capabilities) — each
deployment can declare substring keywords.
- If any declared keyword (case-insensitive) appears in the user message,
the router short-circuits the complexity-classification flow and routes
to the matching deployment.
- Tiebreaker for overlapping keyword matches: quality_tier DESC, then
cheapest model_info.input_cost_per_token ASC. Unpriced models lose ties
to priced ones.
Decision metadata + headers now expose the override:
x-litellm-quality-router-via → "keyword" | "quality_tier"
x-litellm-quality-router-keyword → matched keyword (only on keyword route)
x-litellm-quality-router-complexity → complexity tier (only on tier route)
Removes:
- request_kwargs["litellm_capabilities"] reading
- _model_capabilities, _model_supports_capabilities,
_first_capable_model_at_tier, capability filter in
_resolve_model_for_quality_tier

* feat(quality_router): add explicit `order` to RoutingPreferences
Adds an explicit priority field to RoutingPreferences for resolving
collisions deterministically:
RoutingPreferences.order: Optional[int] # lower wins; unset = +inf
Used as the PRIMARY tiebreaker in two places:
1. Keyword overlap: when multiple deployments declare the same matching
keyword, sort by (order ASC, quality_tier DESC, input_cost_per_token
ASC, model_name ASC). Explicit always beats implicit.
2. Tier resolution: when multiple deployments share a quality tier,
`_resolve_model_for_quality_tier` picks the one with the lowest
order. The tier list is now sorted at index-build time.
This lets admins make routing decisions explicit when the natural
quality-and-price ordering would pick the wrong model.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat(quality_router): reorder tiebreak to (quality, order, price)
Changes the tiebreak ordering so quality_tier always wins first, then
explicit `order` is used to break ties within the same tier, then price
breaks the rest:
1. quality_tier DESC ← best model wins first
2. order ASC ← explicit priority within a tier
3. input_cost_per_token ASC
4. model_name ASC
Previously `order` was the primary key — that meant a tier-2 model with
`order=1` would beat a tier-3 model with no `order`, which is the wrong
default. Now `order` only resolves collisions among same-tier candidates.
Tier resolution (within a single tier) keeps the same key minus quality:
(order ASC, cost ASC, name).
Test renames + flips:
- test_explicit_order_overrides_quality_tier → test_quality_wins_over_explicit_order
- new: test_order_breaks_tie_within_same_quality_tier

* fix(quality_router): resolve Greptile review feedback
Addresses four P1 findings from PR review plus test coverage:
1. set_model_list missing quality_routers reset
- Hot-reloading the Router would leave stale QualityRouter instances
pointing at the old model_list. `set_model_list` now clears
`self.quality_routers` alongside the other indices.
2. Round-down fallback before default_model
- `_resolve_model_for_quality_tier` now rounds DOWN to the closest
lower tier after round-up fails, before falling back to
`default_model`. Degrades gracefully rather than jumping straight
off-tier.
3. RoutingPreferences validation bypass
- `_build_tier_index` now instantiates `RoutingPreferences(**prefs)`
so invalid shapes (e.g. non-int quality_tier) raise a clear
ValueError instead of silently succeeding.
4. Config-ordering dependency
- `_tier_to_models` is now built lazily on first access. Previously,
eager construction in `__init__` meant a QualityRouter deployment
had to appear AFTER all its referenced models in config.yaml,
because `Router._create_deployment` populates `model_list`
incrementally. Any `available_models` defined after the router
entry would silently be reported as missing.
Also adds 6 new tests covering each fix:
- test_invalid_quality_tier_type_raises_clear_error
- test_router_can_be_instantiated_before_its_targets_exist
- test_set_model_list_clears_quality_routers_registry
- test_rounds_down_when_no_higher_tier_exists
- test_rounds_down_prefers_closest_lower_tier
- test_prefers_round_up_over_round_down

- Skip ``kwargs["tools"] = []`` injection when compression is a no-op —
Anthropic Messages rejects empty tool arrays on requests that did not
originally declare tools.
- Move agentic-loop safety guards (fingerprint cycle / max depth) out of
the per-callback try/except so they propagate instead of being swallowed
by the generic exception handler. Extracted _check_agentic_loop_safety.
- Gate generic ``x-<vendor>-session-id`` capture behind the
LITELLM_CAPTURE_VENDOR_SESSION_HEADERS env var (off by default) to
preserve backwards compatibility; explicit x-litellm-* headers are
unaffected.
- Fix monkeypatch target in pre-call-hook test to patch the actual
module-level binding
(litellm.integrations.compression_interception.handler.compress).
- Add regression tests for empty-tools skip and opt-in session capture.

* revert: drop LITELLM_CAPTURE_VENDOR_SESSION_HEADERS flag
Generic x-<vendor>-session-id header capture is a new feature and only
runs *after* the explicit x-litellm-trace-id / x-litellm-session-id
checks, so it does not change behavior for any existing caller that was
already using the LiteLLM headers — no backwards-incompatibility to gate.

* refactor(compress): replace input_type with CallTypes call_type
Drop the bespoke ``CompressionInputType`` literal and use the existing
``litellm.types.utils.CallTypes`` enum instead. ``litellm.compress()``
now takes ``call_type: Union[CallTypes, str]`` (default
``CallTypes.completion``) — no new concept to learn, and the enum is
already the way the rest of the codebase talks about request shapes.
Supported values: ``completion`` / ``acompletion`` (OpenAI chat-completions
shape) and ``anthropic_messages`` (Anthropic structured content blocks).
Updated: compress(), the compression_interception handler, tests, docs,
and the two eval scripts.

* Support /v1/responses in complexity router
Adds cross-format support to the complexity router via the guardrail
translation handler dispatch. Adds get_structured_messages to base
translation plus OpenAI chat, Responses, and Anthropic handlers.

- Change chunk["id"] to chunk.get("id") for compatibility with MiniMax
- ModelResponseStream auto-generates id when None is passed
- Add regression test test_chunk_parser_without_id_field
OpenAI rejects any reasoning_effort (even 'none') with tools in
/v1/chat/completions for gpt-5.4. Update the guard to drop reasoning_effort
regardless of value. Add docs explaining the auto-drop behavior.
- Add _get_effort_level() to extract effective effort from string or dict
- Use effective_effort for xhigh validation, tool-drop, sampling, temperature guards
- Preserve dict format when it has summary/generate_summary for Responses API
- Add tests: xhigh-dict validation, none-dict for tools/sampling/temperature
- Update tests: dict-with-summary now preserved (not normalized)
Made-with: Cursor
When reasoning_effort is passed as a dict with additional fields like 'summary' or 'generate_summary', preserve the full dict format instead of normalizing it to a string. This ensures that when requests are routed to the OpenAI Responses API, all reasoning parameters are correctly included.
The normalization to string format now only happens for simple dicts with just the 'effort' key, which is appropriate for the Chat Completions API.
Fixes issue where summary field was being dropped when routing gpt-5.4+ requests with tools + reasoning to Responses API.
Made-with: Cursor
These params were silently dropped for Chat Completions because they
were missing from the supported params whitelist. Also adds
prompt_cache_retention to the Responses API TypedDict and fixes
misleading cache_control comments in OpenAI prompt caching docs.
* docs: add reference to example_openai_endpoint repo for self-hosting fake OpenAI proxy (#21006)

* fix(generic-guardrail-api): fix SerializationIterator error on multimodal requests
When sending multimodal messages (with images) through the Generic Guardrail API,
the `model_dump()` call fails with "Object of type SerializationIterator is not
JSON serializable" error.
Root cause: The `ChatCompletionAssistantMessage` type defines `content` as an
`Iterable` (not just `List`), and Pydantic's `model_dump()` creates a
`SerializationIterator` for iterables which is not JSON serializable.
Fix: Use `model_dump(mode="json")` which properly converts all iterables to
lists and ensures all complex objects are JSON serializable.
* fix(guardrails): pass tools (function definitions) to guardrail inputs
The unified guardrail handler was not passing the `tools` parameter
(function definitions) from the request to the guardrail inputs.
This meant guardrails could not inspect or validate tool definitions.
Added extraction of `data.get("tools")` and inclusion in the
GenericGuardrailAPIInputs passed to `apply_guardrail()`.
* test(guardrails): add tests for tools passed to guardrail
Added tests verifying that tools (function definitions) are correctly
passed to guardrails in the unified guardrail handler:
- test_tools_passed_to_guardrail
- test_multiple_tools_passed_to_guardrail
- test_no_tools_in_request
- test_tools_and_tool_calls_both_passed

* fix: fix import errors
* fix(openai/chat/guardrail_transformation): fix final chunk returned on streaming
The 'user' parameter was being ignored when using responses API models
(e.g., model="openai/responses/gpt-4.1") because the model name check
in get_supported_openai_params() didn't account for the "responses/" prefix.
Fix: Normalize the model name by stripping "responses/" prefix before
checking if the model is in the list of supported OpenAI models.
This is a minimal, non-breaking change that:
- Adds 2 lines of code in gpt_transformation.py
- Only affects the parameter support check, not the model variable itself
- Includes unit and integration tests
