Summary
This PR fixes an authentication bug where manually provided Authorization headers (defined in Advanced > Custom Headers) were being silently overwritten by the automatic Bearer token generation during chat requests. This was causing HTTP 401 errors for providers like OpenRouter that require specific header configurations.
Changes
Updated
RemoteProvider.resolvedHeaders()to only apply default authentication headers if the user hasn't already provided a custom override for that specific header.Applied the same prioritization logic to the "Test Connection" method in
RemoteProviderManagerto ensure the settings test accurately reflects actual chat behavior.Also improved compatibility for Anthropic (x-api-key) and Gemini (x-goog-api-key) by ensuring their automatic headers also respect manual overrides.
