Composite Groups

Composite groups are an admin routing layer for API keys that should choose a concrete provider from the requested model instead of binding the key to a single provider group. They support both built-in model detection and an admin-configured model route registry for public model aliases.

Supported Providers

Composite groups can route to these concrete account platforms:

• Anthropic
• Gemini
• OpenAI
• Antigravity
• Grok

The selected concrete platform is used for account selection, user platform quota checks, post-usage billing, ops error platform attribution, channel mapping/pricing lookup, and platform usage reporting.

Route Registry

Admins can configure routes on a composite group from the group list's Routes action or through the admin API:

• GET /api/v1/admin/groups/:id/composite-routes
• POST /api/v1/admin/groups/:id/composite-routes
• PUT /api/v1/admin/groups/:id/composite-routes/:route_id
• DELETE /api/v1/admin/groups/:id/composite-routes/:route_id
• POST /api/v1/admin/groups/:id/composite-routes/preview

Each route belongs to one composite group and contains:

• public_model: model identifier the client sends.
• match_type: exact or prefix.
• target_platform: concrete provider platform.
• upstream_model: model identifier sent upstream. If omitted, the public model is reused.
• endpoint: any, messages, count_tokens, responses, chat_completions, embeddings, images, or gemini.
• priority: lower values win after match specificity.
• enabled: disabled routes are ignored by runtime resolution but remain visible to admins.

Resolution order is explicit route first, then built-in detection. When more than one explicit route matches, exact matches beat prefix matches, endpoint-specific routes beat any, longer prefixes beat shorter prefixes, then lower priority, then lower route id.

For JSON-body endpoints, the gateway rewrites the request model field to the route's upstream_model before dispatch. For Gemini native paths such as /v1beta/models/{model}:generateContent, the gateway resolves {model} and the handler forwards the resolved upstream model.

Built-In Detection

Composite routing detects common public model IDs and provider-prefixed IDs:

• claude-* and anthropic/claude-* route to Anthropic.
• gemini-* and google/gemini-* route to Gemini.
• gpt-*, o*, codex-*, text-embedding-*, dall-e-*, and openai/* route to OpenAI.
• grok-* and xai/grok-* route to Grok.

Unknown or ambiguous model names fail closed with a client error instead of guessing a provider.

Admin Workflows

• Admins can create a group with platform composite.
• Admins can add, edit, delete, and preview composite model routes.
• Composite groups can copy accounts from concrete provider groups.
• Concrete provider accounts can be assigned directly to composite groups from account create/edit and bulk account workflows.
• Subscription payment plans can bind to a composite group when that group's subscription_type is subscription. The plan grants access to the composite group; each request is still billed and quota-checked against the resolved concrete provider platform.
• Channel configuration exposes composite groups in concrete provider sections. The channel group_ids payload is still flat; provider-specific model mapping and pricing remain keyed by concrete platform.

Bucket 2 Setup: OpenAI + Claude + Gemini + Grok

Use one composite subscription group when one customer-facing plan should expose model aliases across OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and Grok without issuing separate keys per provider.

1. Create concrete provider groups for the upstream account pools, for example OpenAI Paid, Claude Paid, Gemini Paid, and Grok Paid.

2. Create a composite group with subscription_type set to subscription.

3. Assign provider accounts directly to the composite group, or copy accounts from the concrete provider groups during group creation.

4. Add explicit routes for public aliases that should not rely on built-in model detection:

   Public model	Endpoint	Target platform	Upstream model
   all/gpt-5	responses	openai	gpt-5
   all/claude-sonnet	messages	anthropic	claude-sonnet-4-6
   all/gemini-pro	gemini	gemini	gemini-2.5-pro
   all/grok	responses	grok	grok-4.3

5. Configure channel pricing and model mapping under the concrete platforms named in each route. Composite routing does not create pricing records.

6. Create a subscription payment plan for the composite group.

The same composite group can also rely on built-in detection for standard model names such as gpt-*, claude-*, gemini-*, and grok-*. Explicit routes are recommended for bundled plan aliases because they make endpoint, provider, and upstream model attribution reviewable in the admin UI.

Limits

Composite routes choose a concrete provider and upstream model; they do not create synthetic model metadata, pricing, or upstream capability records by themselves. Keep channel pricing/model mapping configured for the concrete provider platforms that the routes target.

This PR intentionally does not implement:

• AUTO smart-routing among multiple providers for the same abstract task.
• Direct API-key binding to several existing groups without a composite group.
• Protocol-agnostic provider decoupling or a LiteLLM-style adapter rewrite.
