Closes: #1591

Description

OpenAI-compatible endpoints report prompt cache hits as usage.prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens, but OpenAiHandler only read the Anthropic-style cache_read_input_tokens field. As a result, cached prompt tokens were recorded as ordinary input tokens and cost calculations used the full input rate.

This change adds the OpenAI-compatible field as a fallback while preserving cache_read_input_tokens as the authoritative value when a provider supplies it. Both streaming and non-streaming responses already use the same usage normalizer, so the fix remains localized there.

Regression tests use the response shapes and asymmetric token counts from the issue to verify both request modes report cacheReadTokens correctly.

Test Procedure

cd src
pnpm exec vitest run api/providers/__tests__/openai.spec.ts api/providers/__tests__/openai-usage-tracking.spec.ts api/providers/__tests__/openai-timeout.spec.ts api/providers/__tests__/openai-native-tools.spec.ts
# 4 files, 162 tests passed

cd ..
pnpm test
pnpm lint
pnpm check-types
pnpm exec prettier --check src/api/providers/openai.ts src/api/providers/__tests__/openai-usage-tracking.spec.ts
git diff --check

All commands pass. The new regression assertions were also run before the implementation and failed with cacheReadTokens: undefined in both streaming and non-streaming modes.

Documentation Updates

  • No documentation updates are required.

Additional Notes

The fallback does not perform global usage deduplication or alter token totals. It only exposes the cache-read count already returned by the endpoint so the existing OpenAI cost calculation can subtract cached tokens from full-price input.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved AI usage tracking to accurately report cached input tokens across streaming and non-streaming responses.
    • Added fallback handling for providers that report cached tokens through prompt token details.
    • Prevented invalid cached-token values from being included in usage metrics.

Walkthrough

The OpenAI provider now reads cached prompt tokens from either supported usage field, validates their range, and applies the normalized values to O3-family streaming responses. Tests cover streaming, non-streaming, and invalid values.

Changes

OpenAI cache read tracking

Layer / File(s) Summary
Usage normalization and streaming integration
src/api/providers/openai.ts, src/eslint-suppressions.json
OpenAiUsage supports nullable and optional usage fields. processUsageMetrics selects and validates cache-read values from both supported fields. O3-family streaming responses use the normalized usage metrics.
Usage tracking validation
src/api/providers/__tests__/openai-usage-tracking.spec.ts
Tests verify cached prompt-token reporting in streaming and non-streaming responses. Parameterized tests verify that invalid cache-token values are omitted while input and output token counts remain available.

Full details: Regression Evidence

Explanation

The new OpenAI-compatible fallback has focused coverage in streaming, non-streaming, O3 streaming, and invalid prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens cases. However, every added cache test omits cache_read_input_tokens. The changed normalizer now gives that field precedence via ?? and validates it, so the pull request changes behavior for authoritative values and for invalid authoritative values without a focused regression test. Existing tests only cover the field as absent, not precedence or validation.

Resolution

Add focused OpenAiHandler.createMessage tests that provide both cache_read_input_tokens and prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens with different values and assert the former is used. Add cases for invalid cache_read_input_tokens values, including negative, non-finite, non-numeric, and greater-than-prompt_tokens, in at least the relevant response path; retain the existing streaming/non-streaming coverage as appropriate.

🟠 Major · Route O-series streaming usage through processUsageMetrics.

src/api/providers/openai.ts:475-480
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Route O-series streaming usage through processUsageMetrics.

o1, o3, and o4 requests reach handleStreamResponse in streaming mode. That method emits usage directly and omits prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens, so the usage chunk lacks cacheReadTokens. Since OpenAI input tokens include cached tokens, downstream cost calculation may charge cached input at the full input rate. processUsageMetrics(chunk.usage) returns the required ApiStreamUsageChunk and preserves the other usage fields.

Proposed fix
 			if (chunk.usage) {
-				yield {
-					type: "usage",
-					inputTokens: chunk.usage.prompt_tokens || 0,
-					outputTokens: chunk.usage.completion_tokens || 0,
-				}
+				yield this.processUsageMetrics(chunk.usage)
 			}

Add a streaming o3 regression case that asserts the emitted usage chunk includes cacheReadTokens.

💡 Result:

The exact search returned no result. OpenAI’s API docs use input_tokens_details, not prompt_tokens_details, for Responses API usage:

{
  "usage": {
    "input_tokens": 1000,
    "input_tokens_details": {
      "cached_tokens": 800
    },
    "output_tokens": 200,
    "total_tokens": 1200
  }
}

cached_tokens is the number of input tokens retrieved from the prompt cache. (platform.openai.com)

🌐 Web query:

site:platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference OpenAI usage cached_tokens integer number input_tokens_details prompt_tokens_details cache_read_input_tokens

💡 Result:

OpenAI uses different field names depending on the API:

  • Responses API: usage.input_tokens_details.cached_tokens — cached input tokens retrieved from the prompt cache. [1]
  • Chat Completions API: usage.prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens — cached prompt tokens. [2]
  • Organization Usage API: input_cached_tokens — aggregated cached input tokens for a time bucket. [3]
  • integer indicates the value is a whole-number token count.

Reject fractional cached token counts.

Both cache_read_input_tokens and prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens can provide a finite fractional value. The provider emits it as cacheReadTokens; task aggregation then passes it to calculateApiCostOpenAI, which uses it for cache-rate cost accounting. OpenAI defines cached-token counters as integers.

 			typeof reportedCacheReadTokens === "number" &&
 			Number.isFinite(reportedCacheReadTokens) &&
+			Number.isInteger(reportedCacheReadTokens) &&
 			reportedCacheReadTokens >= 0 &&

Add ["fractional", 10.5] to the invalid-value cases in both response modes.
