The original list was copied from OpenRouter conventions and didn't
match what Vercel actually hosts. Verified against the live
/v1/models endpoint (266 models):
- qwen/qwen3.6-plus → alibaba/qwen3.6-plus (Vercel hosts Qwen under alibaba/)
- z-ai/glm-5.1 → zai/glm-5.1 (no hyphen)
- x-ai/grok-4.20 → xai/grok-4.20-reasoning (no hyphen, picks reasoning variant)
- google/gemini-3-flash-preview → google/gemini-3-flash (no -preview suffix)
- moonshotai/kimi-k2.5 → moonshotai/kimi-k2.6 (newest available)
Vercel provides a d?to= redirect URL that routes users through their
team picker to the AI Gateway API keys management page. Using this
specific URL lands users directly on the "Create key" page instead of
the generic AI Gateway dashboard.
When the live Vercel AI Gateway catalog exposes a Moonshot model with
zero input AND output pricing, it's promoted to position #1 as the
recommended default — even if the exact ID isn't in the curated
AI_GATEWAY_MODELS list. This enables dynamic discovery of new free
Moonshot variants without requiring a PR to update curation.
Paid Moonshot models are unaffected; falls back to the normal curated
recommended tag when no free Moonshot is live.
Moves Vercel AI Gateway from the bottom of the list to near the top,
adjacent to other multi-model aggregators. The existing bottom
position was a result of the list growing by appending new providers
over time — the new position makes it more discoverable.
- Curated AI_GATEWAY_MODELS list in hermes_cli/models.py (OSS first,
kimi-k2.5 as recommended default).
- fetch_ai_gateway_models() filters the curated list against the live
/v1/models catalog; falls back to the snapshot on network failure.
- fetch_ai_gateway_pricing() translates Vercel's input/output field
names to the prompt/completion shape the shared picker expects;
carries input_cache_read / input_cache_write through unchanged.
- get_pricing_for_provider() now handles ai-gateway.
- _model_flow_ai_gateway() provides a guided URL prompt when no key
is set and a pricing-column picker; routes ai-gateway to it instead
of the generic api-key flow.
Requests through Vercel AI Gateway now carry referrerUrl / appName /
User-Agent attribution so traffic shows up in the gateway's analytics.
Adds _AI_GATEWAY_HEADERS in auxiliary_client and a new
ai-gateway.vercel.sh branch in _apply_client_headers_for_base_url.
