feat(pricing): resolve model prices from shared pricing documents - #1152
Conversation
Adds a `pricing` resource kind and a second watched etcd prefix. - The supervisor watches a list of prefixes over one snapshot: the environment's, and the shared `<base>/global/` catalog. One resync over the union, one revision floor (the max — kine revisions are global). - Only `pricing` is accepted under the global prefix; anything else there is rejected. `pricing` is also an environment kind, so an organization can override a catalog price. - Models gain an optional `pricing_key`. Every reader of a model's price resolves environment document, then global document, then inline `cost`, through one generation-keyed index. - A refusal on the global prefix is tolerated: the catalog reads as empty, readiness is not held back, and one WARN says prices fell back. - The file source rejects both the `pricing` kind and `pricing_key`; `aisix export` emits neither.
…refusal E2E (real binary + etcd + mock upstreams): a global pricing document orders least_cost; an environment document with the same key wins; with neither, the inline cost still ranks; editing the global price flips the order with the model document byte-identical; the global prefix serves its price while a model written beside it is never loaded; and a realtime session bills at the pricing document's rate, then at the inline cost when no document matches. Unit: longest-prefix key resolution (the global prefix nests inside a bare environment prefix in the pre-env_id shape), the global-prefix kind allowlist, environment-over-global index precedence and its generation-keyed invalidation, applied_revision as the maximum across prefixes, a refused catalog leaving the environment serving while a refused environment prefix still fails the cycle, and the file-source and export rejections. Each case was mutation-checked. Two were worthless as first written and are fixed here: the revision case passed against a last-prefix-wins mutation because the entry revisions supplied the expected value on their own, and the allowlist case passed with the whole second prefix removed because "not served" is equally true of a prefix never read.

With no `env_id` the environment prefix is the bare base, so `<base>/global/` nests inside it and both range reads return the catalog's rows. The snapshot and the observed-state map are keyed and absorb the repeat, but BuildStats is not: `accepted` and the per-field partially-compatible row counts are sums, and both are reported to the control plane. Deduplicate by key in the union read, keeping the later write.
The three readers are a family — least_cost ordering, the realtime session's cost_usd, the batch attribution's — and a fourth is added by writing one more `.cost`. Missing one is silent: a model priced by reference bills zero on the site that still reads the field. Scan the crate's own source instead of listing the three, for the reason guardrail_coverage.rs gives about hand-written lists. This is also what covers the batch path, which shares the identical resolution but has no end-to-end fixture of its own.
The prefixes are read in sequence, so a later one reports a higher revision. Opening every watch at the maximum skipped each earlier prefix's writes made in between — absent from its own read, and before the point its watch began — and the loss stayed invisible until the next resync. Each prefix now resumes from the revision its own read was consistent as of. The reported applied_revision is still the maximum across prefixes, which is what the combined read reflects.
The characterization is exhaustive over RESOURCES so a new resource cannot be added without saying which of the two write contracts it takes. A pricing document is closed on write at its root — the three fields ARE the document — while the loader still accepts an unknown field beside them, so a price a newer control plane wrote keeps loading.
Excluding routing.rs to stop the census matching the pattern it looks for also stopped it covering cost_key, which lives there and is the reader most likely to regress. Assemble the needle at runtime instead, so every file in the crate is scanned on the same terms.
Review finding. The reconnect trigger has always been a watch stream ending: `cycle` returns and `watch_loop` re-reads and re-opens. With one stream that came for free. `select_all` drops an exhausted stream and keeps polling the survivors, so with two prefixes on two connections an environment watch that ended cleanly left the cycle sitting on the catalog's idle stream — no resync, no error, `/status/config` still reporting connected, and that environment's configuration frozen for the life of the process. Each stream now delivers its own end as an item. Also from review: read environment prefixes first and guarantee it in `with_sources` rather than relying on the caller's argument order — the refusal tolerance is only safe because a credentials failure surfaces on the environment prefix, which is not tolerated. And restore the line continuations in three file-source messages, whose text reached the operator with long runs of embedded spaces (the `allowed_model_ids` one predates this change and had the same defect). The price census now scans the whole workspace instead of one crate, excluding the two definition sites by path.

Review finding. Nothing constrains `key` to be unique within a table, and the control plane writes a replacement before deleting the row it replaces, so one key can name two documents for a window. The index inserted per row, making the winner table-iteration order — not stable across rebuilds, so the effective price could flip back and forth while the window was open, changing both least_cost ordering and the cost on emitted usage events. Pick the highest revision, then the highest id.
- `least_cost`'s description said targets rank by inline `cost`. It is the resolved price now, and that text renders into the public API reference; both model schemas regenerated. - Bound `pricing_key` to 1..=255 characters, mirroring `Pricing.key`. An empty or oversized value could never name a document. - `aisix export` now reports EVERY dropped `pricing_key`, not only the models left with no price. A model carrying `cost` as well is not safe to pass over silently: the document outranks it at runtime, so the exported file prices that model differently whenever the two disagree. - `aisix export` declares the catalog prefix alongside the exported one. With `--prefix` at the bare base the range read also returns `<base>/global/pricing/*`, which resolved against the base alone parsed as kind `global` and was reported as rejected rows the operator did nothing to cause. - The e2e that proves a catalog price orders `least_cost` now gives each model a CONFLICTING inline `cost`. With no inline cost at all, a resolver that consulted `cost` first passed it; mutation-checked that it now fails. - The catalog is a separate prefix on its own watch, so `/v1/models` does not speak for it. The cases that depend on a price now gate on the pricing row counts reaching the snapshot.
A model can now take its per-token price from a shared
pricingdocumentinstead of carrying
costinline, so repricing a model is one write tothe price rather than a rewrite of every model that charges it.

A second watched prefix
The watch supervisor used to hold one prefix and one provider. It now
holds a list: the environment's
<base>/<env_id>/as before, plus<base>/global/, the shared catalog every environment reads. There is nonew configuration — the global prefix is derived from the same configured
etcd prefix, because it is one half of a contract with the control plane
rather than a deployment choice.
Both prefixes feed one snapshot. Each is range-read and watched on its
own connection, each watch resumes from the revision its own range read
was consistent as of (the reads run in sequence, so resuming them all at
the highest revision would skip the earlier prefix's writes made in
between), the initial reads are merged into a single resync, and
readiness waits for all of them — so no request can observe the
environment loaded and the catalog not.
applied_revisionis the maximumacross prefixes, since kine revisions are cluster-global.
Only
pricingis accepted under the global prefix. Any other kind writtenthere is rejected with the usual bookkeeping and never reaches the
snapshot: that prefix is written by a different authority, and every other
kind is environment-scoped by definition.
pricingis also anenvironment kind, which is how an organization overrides a catalog price.
Resolving a price
Modelgains an optionalpricing_key. Every reader of a model's priceresolves the same chain — the environment's pricing document with that
key, then the global one, then the model's inline
cost, then nothing(which ranks last under
least_cost, as an unpriced model always has).The lookup goes through an index derived from the two pricing tables and
rebuilt only when one of them changes, keyed on their table generations
rather than on the snapshot version. A price edit therefore takes effect
on the next request with no model document touched, and an unrelated
config write does not rebuild it.
Three readers share that chain, so ranking and billing cannot disagree
about what a model costs:
least_costordering, and the two paths thatcompute
cost_usdon the gateway rather than leaving it to the controlplane (the realtime session and the batch-completion attribution).
Behaviour changes
pricing_keyand no pricing documents the chain resolves to the model's inline
cost, which is what those paths read before. In managed mode thecontrol plane overwrites
cost_usdfrom its own pricing lookup anyway;in standalone mode there are no pricing documents at all, because the
resources file rejects the kind.
pricing_keybut no inlinecosthas no price on agateway that cannot read the catalog — it ranks last under
least_costand reports no spend. That is the fallback the refusalhandling below produces, and the reason the control plane keeps writing
costalongsidepricing_keyuntil every gateway can read the catalog.aisix exportdropspricing_key, which has no file form, and reportsevery model it drops one from — including a model that also carries an
inline
cost, because the document outranks thatcostat runtime, sothe exported file prices the model differently whenever the two
disagree.
pricingcollection and thepricing_keyfield, each with a message saying to set
costinstead.An older control plane
A control plane predating the catalog denies reads outside the
environment's own prefix. That refusal is tolerated on the global prefix
alone: the catalog reads as empty, readiness is not held back, one WARN
says prices fell back to inline
cost, and the prefix is retried wheneverthe cycle restarts — which a control-plane upgrade causes, since it takes
the kine connections behind the surviving watch with it. A refusal on the
environment prefix still fails the cycle exactly as before, so credentials
etcd genuinely refuses cannot hide here.
Compatibility
Free under the upgrade-floor rule:
pricingis a new resource collectionand
pricing_keya new optional field on an existing one. Neither canstop an older gateway loading anything it loads today.
Two details worth having on the record, because neither is silent. A
gateway below this release does not watch the global prefix at all, so
the catalog is invisible to it — but an environment pricing document
sits under the prefix it does watch, and it will skip that row as an
unknown kind and report it as a rejected resource until it is upgraded.
That is the accepted cost of a new collection, not a regression. A model
carrying
pricing_keystill loads on an older gateway: the field isreported through the partial-compat channel and ignored, so the model
prices from its inline
cost— which is why the control plane keepswriting both during the window.

store-trait method pair across three implementations plus hand-written
OpenAPI, and in standalone mode the table is always empty, so it would
be a public surface that can never have content.
Tests
End-to-end against a real binary, a real etcd and mock upstreams: a global
pricing document orders
least_cost; an environment document with thesame key wins over it; with neither, the inline
coststill ranks; aprice edit flips the order with the model document byte-identical before
and after; the global prefix serves its price while a model written beside
it is never loaded; and a realtime session bills at the pricing document's
rate, then at the inline
costwhen no document matches.Unit coverage for longest-prefix key resolution (the global prefix nests
inside the environment prefix in the pre-
env_idshape, where a naiveresolution would parse a price as kind
globaland reject it), theglobal-prefix kind allowlist, index precedence and its generation-keyed
invalidation,
applied_revisionas the maximum across prefixes, thetolerated and untolerated refusals, and the file-source and export
rejections.
Every case was mutation-checked. Two were worthless as first written and
are fixed here: the revision case passed against a last-prefix-wins
mutation because the entry revisions supplied the expected value on their
own, and the allowlist case passed with the whole second prefix removed,
because "not served" is equally true of a prefix that is never read.
