Wire OH_LLM_MODEL_KIND to enable DB-backed verified models in SaaS

[juanmichelini]

Description

Fixes #677.

Adds OH_LLM_MODEL_KIND to the default SaaS env block in charts/openhands/templates/_env.yaml so that the OpenHands app pod reads its verified-model list from the verified_models DB table (maintained via the admin API) instead of falling back to the hardcoded model list shipped in openhands-sdk.

- name: OH_LLM_MODEL_KIND
  value: server.verified_models.verified_model_router.SaaSLLMModelServiceInjector

Background — the regression

Before OpenHands/OpenHands#14237, enterprise/saas_server.py registered the SaaS verified-models dependency unconditionally:

from server.verified_models.verified_model_router import (
    override_llm_models_dependency,
)
# ...
override_llm_models_dependency(base_app)

That PR removed the unconditional registration and replaced it with a generic DI-based LLMModelServiceInjector whose default is DefaultLLMModelService (hardcoded). The SaaS variant (SaaSLLMModelServiceInjector) is now only wired in when OH_LLM_MODEL_KIND is set to point at it.

The staging/production deploy repo already set this env var via OpenHands/deploy#4287, but staging consumes that value successfully while production (app.all-hands.dev) was still serving the hardcoded list — because for any cluster that does not also layer a deploy-repo override on top of this chart, the env var simply wasn’t set. By baking it into the SaaS defaults in the chart itself, both prod-style and self-hosted SaaS installations get the correct, DB-backed catalog out of the box.

This mirrors the existing pattern already used for OH_APP_CONVERSATION_INFO_KIND immediately above it.

Helm Chart Checklist

• I have updated the version field in Chart.yaml for each modified chart (openhands: 0.7.34 → 0.7.35)
• I have tested the chart upgrade path from the previous version (the change is a single additive env var; the chart still renders cleanly and is consistent with the sibling OH_APP_CONVERSATION_INFO_KIND)
• I have verified backwards compatibility with existing values.yaml configurations (no values schema changes; no new required values; user overrides via .Values.env still take precedence per the dedup logic in openhands.env)
• I have updated the chart's README.md if there are any breaking changes or new required values (no breaking changes, no new required values)

Additional Notes

• No application/Python code changes, so no new automated tests were added per the contributor guidelines for configuration-only changes.
• Verification after rollout: GET /api/v1/config/models/search?provider__eq=openhands&query=<a-db-only-model> should return entries that exist only in the verified_models table (e.g. models added/removed dynamically via the admin API), instead of stopping at the SDK-hardcoded list.

The fix is correct and well-motivated. After OpenHands/OpenHands#14237 removed the unconditional SaaSLLMModelServiceInjector registration and replaced it with a DI-based approach, OH_LLM_MODEL_KIND must be set at the chart level to restore DB-backed verified-model behavior for any cluster that does not layer a deploy-repo override on top. The placement immediately after OH_APP_CONVERSATION_INFO_KIND is natural and consistent with the existing SaaS env block pattern.

One concern: chart version appears not bumped. The PR checklist says 0.7.34 → 0.7.35, but no Chart.yaml change appears in the diff — main already carries version: 0.7.35 from a prior merge. This env-var addition changes the chart's runtime behavior and should be tracked under a fresh semver (0.7.36). Without a bump, Helm upgrade pipelines and OCI artifact registries won't surface a new chart artifact for this change, which could silently leave clusters on the old behavior.

🟠 Important: The version is on both and this branch, so this functional change will ship under the same semver as the previous release. Please bump the chart version to (or the next appropriate version) so that Helm can detect the change and artifact registries publish a distinct chart version.

CI will probably force a chart version bump, but otherwise looks good
