[SantiagoDePolonia]

Failed /models calls counted toward the same circuit breaker as chat. While a provider's listing was down, chat through the gateway got 503 circuit breaker is open even though the provider's chat worked. Listing retries once a minute, so about five minutes of failures with no successful call in between was enough to open it. Fireworks hit this during release testing, when its /models returned 500 and chat stayed healthy.

Model discovery and availability probes now bypass the breaker through llmclient.WithoutCircuitBreaker, set once in the registry so it covers every provider.

User-visible impact

• A listing outage no longer pauses inference. Provider-qualified requests keep working, and the outage still shows on the provider status page.
• An open breaker no longer blocks listings, and a successful listing no longer closes a breaker that inference failures opened. Only inference traffic moves the breaker now.
• If inference failures opened the breaker on a provider that then goes idle, the status page shows "Circuit Open" until the next inference request, because listings no longer update that state. Routing does not read this value, and the breaker still recovers on the next request after the timeout.

Models from a provider whose listing is failing stay hidden from /v1/models, as before.

Testing

• TestFailedDiscoveryDoesNotOpenInferenceCircuitBreaker runs a refresh and an availability probe through a real llmclient. It fails without the registry change.
• Against a fake upstream with /models returning 500, chat stayed at 200 and reached the upstream. On v0.2.0 it returned 503 after about six failed listings.
• Against the real Fireworks API during its listing outage, chat and streaming both returned 200 after seven failed listings.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Model discovery and availability checks no longer affect the inference circuit breaker: failed model listings won’t open it, and successful listings won’t close it.
  • Provider status continues to report failed model listings. With model-scoped breakers, model discovery bypasses the breaker; requests without a model continue to use a separate provider breaker.

• Documentation

  • Updated resilience guidance in English, German, Polish, and Chinese.

Walkthrough

Model discovery and availability probes now bypass circuit-breaker accounting. Ordinary requests retain the existing breaker path. Tests cover breaker state, and resilience documentation describes the behavior in four languages.

Changes: Model Discovery Bypass

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Context marker and breaker handling internal/llmclient/client_scope.go, internal/llmclient/resilience_policy_test.go	Adds WithoutCircuitBreaker(ctx) and skips breaker selection and acquisition for marked requests. Tests check that bypassed failures and successes do not change breaker state, while ordinary requests remain subject to the breaker.
Provider discovery paths and documentation internal/providers/registry_init.go, internal/providers/provider_availability.go, internal/providers/registry_breaker_test.go, docs/advanced/resilience.mdx, docs/de/advanced/resilience.mdx, docs/pl/advanced/resilience.mdx, docs/zh/advanced/resilience.mdx	Registry model listing and availability probes use the bypass context. A provider test checks repeated failed discovery and a subsequent successful chat-completion request. The documentation describes the bypass behavior and continued reporting of listing failures.

_{A rabbit checks the model list,
While breaker gates are left unkissed.
The probes report what they have found,
But inference keeps its breaker bound.
Five failed lists, then chat goes through,
And docs tell every language too.}

Inline comments:
Review comments at @docs/advanced/resilience.mdx:
- Around line 117-119: Update the model-scope breaker passage to remove the
claim that requests without a model, including discovery, use a separate
provider breaker; state that model discovery and availability probes bypass the
breaker, consistent with the discovery and availability probes paragraph.

Review comments at @docs/de/advanced/resilience.mdx:
- Around line 126-129: Update the model-scope text in the German and English
resilience documentation to clarify that requests without a model use a separate
provider breaker while model discovery bypasses it; keep the surrounding
multipart-audio guidance unchanged.

Review comments at @docs/pl/advanced/resilience.mdx:
- Around line 117-120: Update the model-scope paragraph in both resilience
documentation versions to remove the claim that model discovery uses a separate
provider breaker. State that model discovery and availability checks bypass the
breaker, consistent with the preceding paragraph.

Review comments at @docs/zh/advanced/resilience.mdx:
- Around line 91-92: Update the Chinese scope paragraph so it no longer says
model discovery uses a separate provider breaker; state that discovery bypasses
the breaker, consistent with the adjacent bypass paragraph, while retaining the
separate provider breaker behavior for other requests without a model.

Review comments at @internal/providers/registry_breaker_test.go:
- Around line 47-50: Update the round closure type and its implementations in
the test table to accept a *testing.T, then pass the subtest’s t from the loop
into each closure. Use that subtest handle for assertions in the inventory
refresh and availability probe rounds.
