fix(requests): send requests to routers that need no API key - #2439
Conversation
The getBrandingCapabilities and getThemeOverrides approvals belong to the change Silo-Server#2413 merged, so the contract check reports them as stale against the new base for any change to the v2 contract.
A request_router plugin can now declare api_key_optional and base_url_optional (silo-plugin-sdk#42). Routing, status checks, the download refresh, the route preview and the connection test use a connection without a key when its plugin declares api_key_optional, through one check that reads the declaration only for a connection without a key. A server saved without a key can change its URL without one; a saved key still has to be typed again. The v2 plugin installation view carries both flags on a request_router.v1 capability, and the admin form saves and tests a server without a key or URL when its plugin needs neither, and stops showing it as needing setup. Closes Silo-Server#2380
Temporary: replace the SDK with the commit of Silo-Server/silo-plugin-sdk#43 so CI can build this branch. Replace this commit with a bump to the release that carries api_key_optional and base_url_optional before merging.

…ey-less routers - The download refresh keeps a key-less target's progress when its router's declaration can't be read, instead of clearing it: statusCheckable now returns the read error. - The save checks again, under the row lock, that a blank key keeps the saved key only for the address it was saved for, so a key or address saved by another admin between validation and the write is never paired with a different address. - A blank URL on a saved server is tested and validated as blank when its router declares base_url_optional, since that is what the save stores.

… key For a router that declares base_url_optional, clearing a saved server's URL pointed the saved key at a different destination without asking for it again. A blank address is now a different address everywhere the rule applies: the save asks for the key again, the locked write refuses to keep it, and the connection test goes without it.
The v2 options body lets a client leave base_url out to test a saved server. For a router that declares base_url_optional, that was treated like a cleared URL and tested without an address. Only a base_url sent blank on purpose is a clear now; the request carries that through Integration.BaseURLCleared, and an omitted URL tests the saved one.

Review of 62b6e99: two low-severity findings, both on how a blank URL is handled. I'm fixing both in commits on this branch. A summary with scores follows once the fixes are pushed.
Reviewed with Claude Code (claude-opus-5-5) and a cross-check by Codex (gpt-6.1-sol).
A save with a blank URL for a server saved without a key validated the saved address but stored a blank one. With api_key_optional such a server takes requests, so routing would send the plugin an empty URL. The save now validates the URL it is given; a blank URL still stands for the saved address in a connection test. A v2 base_url of spaces also reached the plugin as sent when the router takes no URL, while the save stored it blank. adminRequestBaseURL now returns "" for any blank address.

Review summaryReviewed head: 62b6e99. Fixes pushed in d9f7f4b. 3ba9d3d merges The approach holds up. The router declares what it can do without, and Silo reads it from the capability stored at install, which is the same source routing uses. Every former Addressed in d9f7f4b
Both have regression coverage. The updated tests fail on 62b6e99 and pass on d9f7f4b. I updated the PR body's Approach and Validation sections to match. Remaining
Validated features: none of the passed validation cases reach this code. User manual: Silo-Server/siloserver.org#205 covers the form changes, and these fixes don't change what it describes. Apple / Android / jellycompat: no change needed. Request server admin is web-only, and jellycompat has no request integrations. Fit: 8/10 · Readiness: 8/10 — conditional (assuming CI is green)
Reviewed with Claude Code (claude-opus-5-5); Codex (gpt-6.1-sol) ran an independent pass with no findings. |

The recorded Server C4 scenario exercises a keyed test router and notes that a router needing no API key cannot receive requests (#2380). This PR changes the router eligibility, submission, and status-poll path for keyless optional-key routers, which that scenario did not exercise. This is a major change to C4's coverage: the PR must explain why it intentionally expands the validated behavior, and C4 needs re-validation after merge with a keyless router. The task entry documents a keyed-plugin run, not a blocked case, so Automated check: Macroscope check run agent (gpt-6-luna). No validation was performed.

Problem
Closes #2380
Related issue: #1201
Depends on: Silo-Server/silo-plugin-sdk#43 (merged, released in v0.26.0)
Validation tasks: changes #1202 C4
A request-router plugin that needs no API key can't be used today. Silo skips every router connection without a key, and the admin form won't save or test a server without a URL and a key. So an approved request sits in Approved with "request backend connection has no API key; add it in admin" until it fails, and a router that talks to a local tool or signs in some other way only works with a dummy key. This change lets a router declare that it needs no key or no URL (Silo-Server/silo-plugin-sdk#43). Silo then routes to its servers, checks their status and tests them without a key, and the admin form saves them.
This builds against silo-plugin-sdk v0.26.0, which includes Silo-Server/silo-plugin-sdk#43. The temporary
replaceis gone.#1202 C4 passed with a test router that has a key, and recorded the key-less case as this limitation (#2380). This change lifts it on purpose: routers with a key behave as before, and a key-less router now receives requests too. C4 should be re-run with a key-less router after merge.
Approach
api_key_optionalandbase_url_optionaltoRequestRouterDescriptor. Booleans named this way round keep the descriptor's rule that absent means false. A router that doesn't set them, a host on an older SDK, and code reading the generated getters all keep today's behaviour. The issue suggestedrequires_*defaulting to true, which a proto3 bool can't express.RouterFeaturesgainsAPIKeyOptional, read from the capability stored at install likesupports_seasons. Every place that skipped a connection without a key now asks one check,missingAPIKey:base_url_optionalonly changes the admin form.main.base_url_optional; routers that need a URL still treat it as "keep the saved address". Clearing the URL counts as changing it, so a saved key has to be typed again and the connection test goes without it. A connection test that leavesbase_urlout still tests the saved address; only abase_urlsent blank (spaces included) clears it.request_router { api_key_optional, base_url_optional }onrequest_router.v1capabilities. This is additive, and v1 is unchanged. For an installation the flags come from the stored capability, which is what routing reads, so the form never offers a setup that routing then refuses.Validation

Adversarial review: a separate Claude Code subagent reviewed the diff and ran probe tests. It checked for behaviour changes to routers without the flags, a stored key reaching a changed URL, missed key checks, web state, and the API contract. It found three problems, all fixed here:
Its lower-severity findings are listed under Risks and follow-ups. Kody's review found three more issues, all fixed in d440d71:
CodeRabbit then found that clearing the URL kept a saved key paired with the blank address; that is fixed in b208392. Kody then found that a connection test leaving
