Tejas Chopra 49dfcbb58c fix(tokenizers): count HuggingFace chat templates, and resolve gpt-5 / gateway-wrapped names
Three selection defects, all measured against real counters on identical text.

1. HuggingFace-routed models counted a whole conversation as 2 tokens.

transformers >= 5 defaults `apply_chat_template(tokenize=True)` to
`return_dict=True` and returns a BatchEncoding, so `len(formatted)` counted DICT
KEYS — input_ids and attention_mask — instead of tokens. Measured on Qwen2.5-72B
with a 6,000-char message: count_messages returned 2 and count_message returned
-1 (BaseTokenizer subtracts a 3-token reply overhead from it), against a true
1,003. After the fix: 1,020 and 1,017.

That is a ~99.8% undercount on every HF-routed family whose resolved tokenizer
carries a chat template — llama, qwen, deepseek, phi, yi, falcon, starcoder.
pyproject pins transformers>=5.5.0,<6.0, so the affected version is the only
installable one, and no test covered count_messages.

It hid behind a second bug while I was reproducing it: DeepSeek-V3 mis-resolves to
deepseek-llm-7b-base, a 2023 model with no chat template, which falls back to the
estimator and looks correct. That mis-resolution is left for a follow-up.

2. The current OpenAI flagships had no pattern.

MODEL_PATTERNS stopped at ^gpt-4 / ^o1 / ^o3, so gpt-5, gpt-5.1, gpt-5-mini,
gpt-5.1-codex and o4-mini all fell through to the char estimator. Deviation vs the
correct o200k encoding: +20% English, -33% JSON, -44% logs. Added ^gpt-5 and ^o4.

3. Every pattern is ^-anchored, so gateway-wrapped ids matched nothing.

bedrock/anthropic.claude-*, vertex_ai/claude-*, openrouter/anthropic/claude-*,
anthropic/claude-*, azure/gpt-4o, us.anthropic.claude-*-v1:0 and friends all
resolved to the estimator instead of their family's counter. Deviation: +15%
English, -33% JSON, -38% logs. handlers/openai.py already documents that
LiteLLM's `headroom` guardrail passes exactly these forms.

`_detect_backend` now tries progressively-unwrapped candidates — path segments
stripped left to right, then Bedrock's dotted [region.]vendor.model — with the
FULL name first, so no currently-correct resolution can move and an unknown alias
still falls back to estimation rather than matching by accident.

20 new tests covering all three, plus the no-regression cases: bare names
unchanged, unknown aliases still estimated, wrapped Gemini matching its bare form
exactly, and candidate ordering.

ruff check + format clean (0.15.17). tests/test_huggingface_tokenizer_timeout.py
+ tests/test_tokenizers/: 12 passed on this branch and 12 on clean upstream/main.
tests/test_evals_cjk_tokenization.py cannot collect in this env
(ModuleNotFoundError: headroom._core, the compiled extension this machine cannot
build) — identical on baseline, so CI is the check there.

"""Model names must resolve to the tokenizer their model actually uses.
Two selection gaps, both measured against real counters on identical text:
1. ``MODEL_PATTERNS`` stopped at ``^gpt-4``/``^o1``/``^o3``, so the current
flagships — ``gpt-5``, ``gpt-5.1``, ``o4-mini`` — fell through to the char
estimator. Deviation vs the correct o200k encoding: +20% English, -33% JSON,
-44% logs.
2. Every pattern is ``^``-anchored, which is right for a bare model id and wrong
for the wrapped ids gateways send. ``bedrock/anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet``,
``vertex_ai/claude-…``, ``openrouter/anthropic/claude-…``, ``azure/gpt-4o``
and Bedrock's ``us.anthropic.claude-…`` all matched nothing. LiteLLM's
``headroom`` guardrail passes exactly these forms.
The estimator is a legitimate FALLBACK; the bug is reaching it when a real
tokenizer for that family exists.
