Closes: #1316

Description

OpenRouter reports max_completion_tokens: null for moonshotai/kimi-k3, so the generic fallback fabricated max_tokens = ceil(context_length * 0.2) (209,716 for a 1M context window), and since no reasoning effort was ever populated for non-Anthropic ids, the reasoning field was dropped from every request. Long turns then burned the upstream 32,768-token output cap on invisible thinking (measured: 507 s / 309 s turns, hidden reasoning billed as completion tokens).

This fix adds a Moonshot K3 capability profile:

const MOONSHOT_K3_OPENROUTER_PROFILE: Partial<ModelInfo> = {
	maxTokens: 32_768,
	supportsReasoningEffort: ["low", "high", "max"],
	reasoningEffort: "high",
	supportsTemperature: true,
	defaultTemperature: 1.0,
}

applied in two places:

  • Fetch timeparseOpenRouterModel() returns its result through the exported applyOpenRouterMoonshotK3Profile() (id-list based, matching the existing per-model override pattern in the same file),
  • Consumption timeOpenRouterHandler.getModel() re-applies the profile to the resolved record, because parsed records are persisted in the model cache and records cached before this profile existed still carry the fabricated value. This also covers the openRouterSpecificProvider endpoint path, which flows through the same getModel().

Result: a default Kimi K3 request now carries {"max_tokens": 32768, "temperature": 1, "reasoning": {"effort": "high"}}. The explicit temperature: 1.0 matches the issue's expected result (K3 is fixed at 1.0 upstream). The generic 0.2 fallback and all existing model overrides are untouched.

Notes:

  • Temperature decision (resolves the CodeRabbit linked-issue check): issue [BUG] OpenRouter + Kimi K3: requests sent with no reasoning effort and fabricated max_tokens=209,716 → multi-minute invisible-thinking turns #1316's expected result requires requests to carry an explicit temperature: 1.0, so the profile sets supportsTemperature: true + defaultTemperature: 1.0 — the same convention as the direct Moonshot provider's K3 profile (defaultTemperature: 1.0, // temperature is fixed at 1.0). Omitting the field (the earlier supportsTemperature: false approach) would have satisfied the server default but deviated from the issue's acceptance criteria.
  • moonshotai/kimi-latest is included in the id set as a forward-compatible alias — it is not currently listed in the live OpenRouter catalogue (verified against openrouter.ai/api/v1/models), so the entry is inert until/if OpenRouter lists it.
  • No src/shared/api.ts or ModelInfo type changes were needed: the array-capability + model-default-effort logic in shouldUseReasoningEffort and the reasoningEffort field already exist.
  • The latent finish_reason: "length" handling in NativeToolCallParser noted in the issue was left untouched (never observed firing; out of scope per the issue).

Test Procedure

cd src
pnpm exec vitest run api/providers/fetchers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts api/providers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts shared/__tests__/api.spec.ts
# 84/84 passing, incl. 9 new tests:
# - parse-time profile for moonshotai/kimi-k3 and moonshotai/kimi-latest (maxTokens 32768, ladder, default effort, temperature 1.0)
# - applyOpenRouterMoonshotK3Profile: stale-cache override, input non-mutation, pass-through for other models
# - OpenRouterHandler.fetchModel: stale cached record (209716 / boolean flag) corrected at consumption time
# - OpenRouterHandler.fetchModel: stale specific-provider endpoint record corrected when openRouterSpecificProvider is set
# - OpenRouterHandler.createMessage wire test: outgoing body has max_tokens 32768, temperature 1, reasoning {effort: "high"}
# - shouldUseReasoningEffort: array capability + model default with no settings -> true; enableReasoningEffort: false still wins
pnpm exec eslint --prune-suppressions --max-warnings=0 api/providers/fetchers/openrouter.ts api/providers/openrouter.ts api/providers/fetchers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts api/providers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts shared/__tests__/api.spec.ts   # clean, no suppression count changes
pnpm check-types   # 11/11 packages passing

Manual verification would additionally require a live OpenRouter key + Moonshot model access; the wire test asserts the exact outgoing request shape.

…and reasoning effort

OpenRouter reports max_completion_tokens: null for moonshotai/kimi-k3, so the generic fallback fabricated max_tokens = ceil(context_length * 0.2) (209,716 for a 1M window), and no reasoning effort was ever populated so the reasoning field was dropped from requests. Long turns then burned the upstream 32,768-token output cap on invisible thinking billed as completion tokens.

Add a Moonshot K3 capability profile (maxTokens 32768, supportsReasoningEffort [low, high, max] with model default high, supportsTemperature false) applied in parseOpenRouterModel at fetch time and re-applied in OpenRouterHandler.getModel() at consumption time, so users with stale cached model info are fixed without a re-fetch. The default request body becomes {max_tokens: 32768, reasoning: {effort: high}} with temperature omitted (K3 is fixed at 1.0 server-side).

Adds parse-time, stale-cache, and createMessage wire tests, plus shouldUseReasoningEffort cases for array capability with a model default effort.

Walkthrough

The OpenRouter fetcher adds a Moonshot K3 profile for moonshotai/kimi-k3 and moonshotai/kimi-latest. Parsed and cached records now use a 32,768-token limit, default high reasoning effort, supported effort values, and disabled temperature support.

Moonshot K3 OpenRouter support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Profile and reasoning capability contract
src/api/providers/fetchers/openrouter.ts, src/api/providers/fetchers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts, src/shared/__tests__/api.spec.ts
The fetcher applies the Moonshot K3 profile during parsing. Tests cover both model IDs, profile immutability, unrelated models, and array-based reasoning-effort settings.
Cached model request flow
src/api/providers/openrouter.ts, src/api/providers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts
OpenRouterHandler reapplies the profile to cached records before tool preferences. Tests verify corrected model data and requests with max_tokens: 32768, high reasoning effort, and no temperature.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 57d2c

The PR is merge-ready after normal checks, with one trivial test-isolation cleanup recommended to prevent a mocked OpenAI method from leaking into later tests.

Explanation

The changes address the main requirements in issue #1316: truthful max_tokens, reasoning effort, stale-cache correction, and model-specific handling. The implementation omits temperature instead of explicitly sending temperature: 1.0, which differs from the issue's stated expected request but preserves Moonshot's fixed-temperature behavior through the server default.

Resolution

Confirm whether issue #1316 requires an explicit temperature: 1.0 field or accepts omitting temperature to use the server default. Update the implementation or issue acceptance criteria accordingly, and document the decision in the pull request or issue conversation.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes are focused on the linked OpenRouter Moonshot K3 issue. The shared reasoning-effort tests, Kimi Latest alias, stale-cache correction, and request serialization tests directly support the fix. The out-of-scope finish_reason handling remains unchanged.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The new OpenRouterHandler.getModel() profile application lacks focused coverage for the specific-provider endpoint branch. The changed code first replaces the cached model with this.endpoints[this.options.openRouterSpecificProvider], then applies applyOpenRouterMoonshotK3Profile. The added stale-cache test uses no openRouterSpecificProvider and no endpoint record, and the handler test file has no endpoint references. A regression that applies the profile before endpoint selection would pass all current tests while sending stale endpoint values. This branch is a documented affected path in the PR description.

Resolution

Add a handler-level test with openRouterModelId: "moonshotai/kimi-k3" and a configured openRouterSpecificProvider. Populate the selected endpoint with stale maxTokens, boolean supportsReasoningEffort, and default temperature data. Call fetchModel() or getModel() and assert that the selected endpoint produces maxTokens: 32768, supportsReasoningEffort: ["low", "high", "max"], reasoningEffort: "high", and supportsTemperature: false; assert the derived request parameters as appropriate.

Full details: Trust And Persistence Invariants

Explanation

PASS — The changed implementation only adds an exact-ID capability profile and reapplies it to an immutable copy of model metadata. The profile does not execute model IDs, access secrets, alter approval controls, or add resource ownership. The PR adds no persistence writes; existing cache writes remain awaited through safeWriteJson, and the new getModel() path only derives request parameters. The actual diff contains no changed secret, filesystem, process, approval, or lifecycle sink.

The description includes the linked issue, implementation details, testing procedure, checklist, documentation assessment, and reviewer context. It is complete and directly related to the pull request objectives.

- Send explicit temperature: 1.0 for Moonshot K3 via OpenRouter instead of
  omitting it: issue Zoo-Code-Org#1316's expected result requires the request to carry
  temperature: 1.0, matching the direct Moonshot provider profile
  (defaultTemperature: 1.0, "temperature is fixed at 1.0").
- Add a handler-level regression test for the openRouterSpecificProvider
  endpoint branch: a stale endpoint record (fabricated max_tokens, boolean
  supportsReasoningEffort) is corrected at consumption time (CodeRabbit
  pre-merge check: regression evidence for the endpoint path).
- Restore OpenAI.prototype.chat in the Kimi K3 wire test via try/finally so
  the stub cannot leak into later tests; clearAllMocks does not undo
  prototype assignment (CodeRabbit actionable comment).
