PR #67934 marked auto-discovered catalogs by writing two sentinel keys
INSIDE the user-facing ``models`` mapping of custom provider entries:
``__discovered_model_catalog__`` (written by
_save_discovered_models_to_config) and ``__explicit_model_allowlist__``
(injected by _normalize_custom_provider_entry). Every consumer of that
mapping — pickers, selectors, gateway/agent readers, and the user's own
config.yaml — had to know to filter those keys, and any site that
didn't listed them as phantom model IDs (``__discovered_model_catalog__``
showing up as a selectable "model"). The v11→v12 config migration and
the ACP session-state test caught exactly that leak on main.
Replace the in-mapping sentinels with a single entry-level flag:
- ``models_discovered: true`` now sits next to ``models``/``base_url``
on the provider entry; the models mapping stays a clean
``{model_id: metadata}`` dict with no reserved keys.
- _save_discovered_models_to_config writes the new shape and refreshes
catalogs it previously discovered (entry-level flag or legacy
sentinel) instead of treating them as user-curated metadata.
- _normalize_custom_provider_entry no longer injects
``__explicit_model_allowlist__``; a dict-shaped models mapping counts
as an explicit allowlist exactly when the entry is NOT marked
models_discovered.
- _models_config_is_allowlist takes the discovered flag as a parameter
(new helper _entry_models_discovered resolves it, including the
legacy in-mapping sentinel); all call sites updated
(model_switch.py, model_setup_flows.py, acp_adapter/server.py).
- Backward compat, no config version bump: configs written by a
pre-fix Hermes (sentinels inside models) still read correctly —
``__discovered_model_catalog__: true`` is treated as
models_discovered, both sentinel keys are stripped from model
listings, and the next discovery save migrates the entry to the
clean shape. Covered by a new regression test.
Also restore ``except Exception:`` on the pre-existing guards this PR
had narrowed to specific exception tuples (the resolve_runtime_provider
fallback in switch_model, the picker discovery/cache guards in
list_authenticated_providers, _get_model_config_dict, and
_credential_fingerprint). Those guards were intentionally broad on
main — a failed resolution or probe must degrade to the fallback path,
never crash the model switch. Guards the PR introduced for its own new
probe code keep their authored tuples.
The ACP new_session payload also goes back to
probe_current_custom_provider=False, matching the contract main's
test_new_session_returns_authenticated_cross_provider_model_state pins
(session opens must not block on live-probing the current custom
endpoint).
