Answer 1

I cloned the actual decolua/9router repo, reproduced the bug, applied the fix to src/app/api/v1/models/route.js, and verified with tests. The full solution is saved at /workspace/solution.md. Here it is:


Fix: Credential-aware model catalog on a fresh install (/v1/models)

Problem class: model-catalog-credential-filtering Repo: 9router (Next.js 16 API routes, provider registry, SQLite connection store, Vitest) File: src/app/api/v1/models/route.js (buildModelsList)

Symptoms

On a fresh install (connection table legitimately empty):

Root cause

buildModelsList() used one array and connections.length === 0 as the signal that the store was unavailable:

let connections = [];
try {
  connections = await getProviderConnections();
  connections = connections.filter(c => c.isActive !== false);
} catch (e) {
  console.log("Could not fetch providers, returning all models");
}

if (connections.length === 0) {
  // DB unavailable -> return static models  ... advertises ENTIRE static catalog
}

Both outcomes collapse to []:

Outcome connections Old behavior
Lookup succeeded, zero active connections (fresh install) [] full static catalog ❌
Lookup threw (DB read error) [] full static catalog ✅ (intentional fail-open)

The "DB unavailable" comment only describes the second case, but the branch served both. The chat auth path correctly refuses credential-required models, so the catalog and chat disagreed. The single-model route src/app/api/v1/models/[...model]/route.js already delegates to the same builder (buildModelsList([LLM_KIND])), so it inherits the same bug and the same fix — no separate catalog is built there.

Exact fix

Track whether the lookup completed; only fail open on actual failure. On a successful empty lookup, keep static/custom entries only for registry entries declaring noAuth: true. The non-empty connection path is untouched.

   let connections = [];
+  // Distinguish "lookup succeeded and there are zero active connections"
+  // (fresh install) from "lookup failed". Both leave `connections` empty,
+  // but only a real failure should fail open to the full static catalog.
+  let connectionsLoaded = false;
   try {
     connections = await getProviderConnections();
     connections = connections.filter(c => c.isActive !== false);
+    connectionsLoaded = true;
   } catch (e) {
     console.log("Could not fetch providers, returning all models");

Result matrix:

Case Result
lookup resolves [] only noAuth provider models (and custom models on noAuth providers)
lookup throws connectionsLoaded stays false → full static fail-open catalog preserved
non-empty connections branch not entered → unchanged
GET /v1/models/{id} shares the builder → 404 for credential-required IDs, 200 for no-auth IDs

Verification

Reproduction test: tests/unit/fresh-install-model-catalog-339.test.js (mocks @/lib/localDb, @/lib/disabledModelsDb, live resolvers; exercises both buildModelsList and the catch-all route).

cd tests
npx vitest run --config ./vitest.config.js \
