Summary

  • attribute direct OpenRouter API requests to ChatGPTBox using OpenRouter's official app attribution headers
  • include HTTP-Referer, X-OpenRouter-Title, and X-OpenRouter-Categories
  • restrict attribution to requests whose resolved origin is exactly https://openrouter.ai, so OpenRouter-derived third-party proxy endpoints do not receive these headers
  • cover built-in OpenRouter, direct custom OpenRouter providers, and third-party proxy behavior with focused tests

Reference

Validation

GitHub Actions pr-tests passed in full:

  • npm run test:coverage
  • npm run lint
  • npm run build
  • npm run build:safari
  • Safari app bundle signature verification
  • Safari DMG verification

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added attribution support for requests sent directly through OpenRouter.
    • OpenRouter attribution is automatically included for built-in and compatible custom endpoints.
    • Other provider and proxy requests remain unchanged.
    • Attribution details are sent as request headers and are not included in request bodies.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage confirming attribution behavior across supported OpenRouter endpoints and third-party proxies.

Add OpenRouter app attribution headers for direct OpenRouter requests

✨ Enhancement 🧪 Tests 🕐 10-20 Minutes

AI Description

• Add OpenRouter app attribution headers to direct openrouter.ai API requests.
• Avoid leaking attribution headers to third-party proxy endpoints by origin-checking.
• Add unit tests covering built-in OpenRouter, custom direct OpenRouter, and proxy providers.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Gate by providerId/sourceProviderId instead of URL origin
  • ➕ Avoids URL parsing and potential edge cases around equivalent OpenRouter URLs.
  • ➕ Centralizes behavior around provider metadata rather than transport details.
  • ➖ More likely to mis-attribute when a provider is configured to point at a proxy while still being 'openrouter-derived'.
  • ➖ Less robust if a custom provider changes baseUrl but keeps provider identity.
2. Make attribution headers configurable (opt-in/override)
  • ➕ Allows downstream forks/brands to set their own referer/title/categories without code changes.
  • ➕ Can be disabled for privacy-sensitive deployments.
  • ➖ Adds config surface area and validation requirements.
  • ➖ Not necessary if headers are stable and intended to always reflect the app.

Recommendation: The current origin-based gating is the safest default: it prevents attribution header leakage to third-party proxy endpoints while still covering both built-in OpenRouter and direct custom OpenRouter baseUrls. Provider-metadata gating was considered but is more error-prone in proxy scenarios; configurability could be added later if branding needs emerge.

✅ No new issues found.

Reviewed changes

  • OpenRouter app-attribution headers added for direct requests whose resolved origin is exactly https://openrouter.ai (HTTP-Referer, X-OpenRouter-Title, X-OpenRouter-Categories), merged into request headers only.
  • New focused test file covering built-in OpenRouter, a custom provider pointing at the OpenRouter origin, and a third-party proxy endpoint.

Reviewed the full diff for both changed files. The header contract matches OpenRouter's official app attribution docs: HTTP-Referer (required, app's public URL/ranking id), X-OpenRouter-Title (display name), and X-OpenRouter-Categories (max 2 per request, lowercase hyphen-separated) — the chosen general-chat,writing-assistant value and casing are valid. The origin check runs against request.requestUrl at call time, which is the same URL passed straight to fetchSSE, so the gated origin and the actual fetch target cannot drift. The try/catch on new URL(requestUrl) correctly falls back to no headers for malformed/missing URLs. The three tests assert exact URLs, Authorization, and presence/absence of the attribution headers (plus a body-leak check), and they exercise the real fetch path via the same t.mock.method(globalThis, 'fetch', ...) pattern used elsewhere in the suite, so they would fail if the logic regressed.

Remediation recommended

1. OpenRouter port mismatch ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness ⭐ New
Description
getOpenRouterAttributionHeaders() compares URL.origin to the literal string "https://openrouter.ai",
so a valid direct OpenRouter endpoint like "https://openrouter.ai:443/..." will not receive
attribution headers. This can silently break attribution for custom providers configured with an
explicit default port, even though they still call OpenRouter directly.
Code

src/services/apis/openai-api.mjs[R111-112]

+    if (new URL(requestUrl).origin !== OPENROUTER_API_ORIGIN) return {}
+  } catch {
Evidence
The new code requires an exact origin string match, while the provider registry builds request URLs
directly from configurable baseUrl values without removing explicit ports, making
https://openrouter.ai:443/... a realistic constructed requestUrl that will fail the new check.

src/services/apis/openai-api.mjs[109-116]
src/services/apis/provider-registry.mjs[301-304]
src/services/apis/provider-registry.mjs[687-716]

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

### Issue description
`getOpenRouterAttributionHeaders()` uses strict string equality on `new URL(requestUrl).origin` versus `"https://openrouter.ai"`. In URL semantics, `origin` includes an explicit port when present (e.g., `https://openrouter.ai:443`). That makes direct OpenRouter requests configured with an explicit default port miss attribution headers.

### Issue Context
Custom provider request URLs are constructed by concatenating `baseUrl` + path, and `baseUrl` is user-configurable. If a user configures `baseUrl` as `https://openrouter.ai:443/api/v1`, the resulting request URL remains on OpenRouter but will not match the current origin check.

### Fix Focus Areas
- src/services/apis/openai-api.mjs[109-116]
- tests/unit/services/apis/openrouter-attribution.test.mjs[1-159]

### Suggested fix
- Parse the URL and match by components instead of origin string equality:
 - require `protocol === 'https:'`
 - require `hostname === 'openrouter.ai'` (case-insensitive)
 - allow `port === '' || port === '443'`
- Optionally, apply existing normalization (trim) before parsing.
- Add a unit test covering `https://openrouter.ai:443/api/v1/...` to ensure attribution headers are included for direct OpenRouter calls even with an explicit default port.

Add a negative test for an OpenRouter-like origin.

This test only checks an unrelated origin. A predicate based on a substring or hostname suffix would still pass it. Add a custom provider with https://openrouter.ai.evil/v1 and assert that attribution headers are absent. This verifies the exact-origin contract.
