## Description
Adds first-class GCP Vertex AI proxy routing for publisher REST
endpoints so Vertex requests are forwarded to a configurable regional
Vertex host instead of falling through to the generic
OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini passthrough selection.
Fixes#792
## Type of Change
- [x] New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [x] Documentation update
## Changes Made
- Added a `vertex` provider target with `VERTEX_TARGET_API_URL` and
`--vertex-api-url` support.
- Registered explicit Vertex publisher routes for Google
`generateContent`, `streamGenerateContent`, `countTokens` and Anthropic
publisher `rawPredict`, `streamRawPredict` passthrough.
- Added startup banner/routing output for Vertex AI.
- Added focused tests for provider target resolution, CLI/env config,
banner output, and route delegation.
- Added `wiki/vertex.md` with usage examples and Google Cloud source
links.
## Sources
- Vertex AI Gemini inference reference:

- Google Cloud REST authentication:

- Google Application Default Credentials:

## Testing
- [x] Linting passes (`python -m ruff check .`)
- [x] New tests added for new functionality
- [x] Focused unit tests pass
- [ ] Full unit suite completed locally
- [ ] Rust tests completed locally
- [ ] Type checking passes locally
## Test Output
```text
$ python -m ruff check .
All checks passed!
$ python -m pytest tests/test_provider_registry.py tests/test_provider_proxy_routes.py tests/test_cli_proxy_env.py tests/test_banner_upstream_targets.py -q
57 passed, 1 warning in 13.75s
```
Local limitations:
- `python -m pytest tests scripts/tests -q` timed out after 1 hour on
this Windows machine before completing.
- `cargo test -p headroom-proxy --test integration_vertex_raw_predict`
could not run because `cargo` is not installed on PATH in this
environment.
- The commit hook's `mypy` step fails locally on an existing Windows
`fcntl` typing issue in `headroom/subscription/tracker.py`; `ruff`,
`ruff-format`, and plugin-version hooks passed, and the commit was made
with only `mypy` skipped.
## Checklist
- [x] My code follows the project's style guidelines
- [x] I have performed a self-review of my code
- [x] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation
- [x] I have added tests that prove the feature works
- [ ] New and existing unit tests pass locally with my changes
- [ ] I have updated the CHANGELOG.md if applicable
Display the resolved upstream API targets (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini,
Cloud Code) in the proxy startup banner so users can verify their
custom endpoint configuration at a glance.
The new UPSTREAM TARGETS section appears between the Backend line and
the FEATURES section. URLs are resolved through the existing
resolve_api_targets pipeline, which normalizes trailing /v1 suffixes
and applies defaults for unconfigured providers.
Closes#583
