fix(web-search): bind the passthrough bridge search model to its backend - #4548
Conversation
sidecarSettingsForBridge read the model out of the global config.webSearchSidecar
block without checking which backend that block was configured for, and
src/server/responses/core.ts hands the block over whole. A global
{backend: "openai", model: "gpt-5.6-luna"} therefore reached runAnthropicWebSearch
whenever a provider set webSearchBridge.backend to "anthropic", and Anthropic
rejects the model, so the bridge search failed. Same shape for xai and gemini.
The global model now applies only when resolveSidecarBackend(sidecar.backend)
equals the bridge backend; otherwise the bridge runs that backend's own default.
An unset global backend still resolves to "openai", so an unset-backend model
reaches an openai bridge and no other. Only the model is gated: reasoning is a
generic effort level, and xSearch is xai-only with no per-backend default and no
webSearchBridge equivalent, so gating it would make an openai sidecar plus an xai
bridge plus x_search inexpressible.
No credential crosses a backend, before or after this change.
resolvePassthroughWebSearchBridgeAuth switches on the bridge backend and consults
only that backend's credential locator. This is a model and settings defect.
resolveSidecarBackend and WebSearchBackendId move from src/web-search/index.ts to
src/web-search/sidecar-providers.ts, which exists precisely so the bridge can
resolve a backend without value-importing the barrel; index.ts re-exports both, so
every existing consumer is unchanged.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe web-search bridge now selects models per backend. It applies the global sidecar model only when the sidecar and bridge backends match.

Summary
sidecarSettingsForBridgeinsrc/web-search/passthrough-bridge.tstook the search model from the globalconfig.webSearchSidecarblock without checking which backend that block was configured for, andsrc/server/responses/core.tshands the block over whole. A global{ backend: "openai", model: "gpt-5.6-luna" }therefore reachedrunAnthropicWebSearchwhenever a provider setwebSearchBridge.backendto"anthropic". Anthropic rejects the model, so the bridge search failed on a configuration that looks correct from either side on its own. The same shape applies to thexaiandgeminibridges.resolveSidecarBackend(webSearchSidecar.backend)equals the bridge backend; otherwise the bridge runs that backend's own default (claude-sonnet-5,grok-4.6,gemini-3.8-flash,gpt-5.6-luna). An unset global backend still resolves toopenai, so an unset-backend model reaches anopenaibridge and no other.planWebSearchalready pins the backend before choosing a model; this makes the bridge agree with it.resolvePassthroughWebSearchBridgeAuthswitches on the bridge backend and consults only that backend's credential locator, so an anthropic bridge can only ever hold an anthropic handle.reasoningis a generic effort level every backend accepts or ignores.xSearchis xai-only, has no per-backend default, and has nowebSearchBridge.xSearchequivalent, so gating it on backend agreement would make "openai sidecar + xai bridge + x_search" impossible to express at all rather than correcting anything.modelwith an unset oropenaisidecar backend reaches that vendor's bridge and can work by accident. After this change it is dropped in favour of the backend default. That is the intended trade; the alternative is continuing to send openai-shaped models to Anthropic.resolveSidecarBackendandWebSearchBackendIdmove fromsrc/web-search/index.tstosrc/web-search/sidecar-providers.ts. That file exists for exactly this reason — its header says it is "kept out ofindex.tsso the bridge can resolve a backend without importing the barrel" — and the bridge already imports it, so no new import edge is created.index.tsre-exports both, sobackends.ts,loop.ts,src/server/management/web-search-sidecar-options.tsand the existing tests are untouched.structure/runtime.md(the owner ofsrc/web-search/perstructure/INDEX.md) and thewebSearchBridgereference indocs-siteboth record the rule.structure/manifest.jsonis unchanged, sostructure/INDEX.mdneeds no regeneration.Verification
bun run typecheck, the build andbun installwere NOT RUN. This worktree has nonode_modules, and running them was excluded by the delivery policy for this change. No local result is cited as evidence here.4e79b562fe41cc4c98ad1045e2684b68190b626b, queued by the push to the open PR. Run id:34776449529.resolveSidecarBackendfrom theindex.tsbarrel and produced thesidecar-providers.tsplacement used here. The counter-read traced every moved symbol and consumer, the import graph, the new tests against the actual source constants, and every existing test that toucheswebSearchBridgeorwebSearchSidecar; the only bridge-config consumer intests/is the file changed here, and its existingwebSearchSidecarusages setexaApiKeyonly, with no model.tests/web-search/web-search-passthrough-bridge.test.ts: the mismatch case and the matching case foranthropic,xaiandgemini; the unset-global-backend case both surviving on anopenaibridge and being dropped on ananthropicone; an explicitopenaimatch; a missing sidecar block, which is whatcreateOllamaBridgeExecutorpasses; and one case pinning thatreasoning,timeoutMsanddescribeImagesare unchanged.Checklist
The third box is ticked with a specific claim rather than a general one: this change does not touch authentication, credential handling or any OAuth flow. It reads
webSearchSidecar.backend, which is a backend id, never a secret.resolvePassthroughWebSearchBridgeAuthis unmodified, and the credential-per-backend boundary it enforces is unchanged. The one behavioural effect on credentials is indirect and in the safe direction: a mismatched backend now runs its own default model rather than a model belonging to a different vendor.
