B04 - Model Registry
| Group | Technology | Status | Service | Roadmap phase | Contracts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| B - LLM management and Model Gateway | Developed (PostgreSQL) | to develop | llm | 2 | model-manifest |
Role and responsibilities
Every model with mandatory fields: modalities, limits, reasoning, residency, classification, pricing, status.
Position in the architecture and interactions
Source for the Resolver, Router, Context Manager, Pricing and Governance Registry. Models can be applied as manifests with POST /v1/manifests/apply (kind: Model). Promotion to approved requires an evaluation gate (B12) and an approval (A12).
Data model
eai.llm_models stores the Model Manifest (contracts/v1/model-manifest.schema.json). Mandatory fields:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
model_id | Stable internal identifier |
provider | Provider id from the Provider Registry |
provider_model_id | Identifier used by the provider API |
deployment_id | Deployment and region (e.g. vllm-paris-a100) |
modalities | Input and output modalities |
capabilities | chat, tools, json_schema, streaming, embeddings, reasoning... |
context_window | Maximum documented window in tokens |
max_output_tokens | Maximum output tokens |
reasoning_modes | Supported effort levels and native mechanism |
supports_caching | Prompt caching support |
supports_batch | Batch API support |
supports_streaming | Streaming support |
data_residency | Regions where data is processed |
data_classification_max | Highest classification allowed |
pricing_version | Price card version (B10) |
quality_profile | Evaluation profile and scores (B12) |
status | approved, restricted, deprecated, blocked |
Tables (schema eai, every tenant table carries tenant_id uuid NOT NULL with an RLS policy on current_setting('app.tenant_id', true)::uuid): eai.llm_models, eai.audit_events.

SDK usage
Python (enterprise_ai):
from enterprise_ai import EnterpriseAI
client = EnterpriseAI(base_url="<control-plane-url>", api_key="eai_xxx_secret")
items = client.models.list()
TypeScript (@enterprise-ai/sdk):
import { EnterpriseAI } from "@enterprise-ai/sdk";
const eai = new EnterpriseAI({ baseUrl: "<control-plane-url>", apiKey: process.env.EAI_API_KEY });
const items = await eai.models.list();
Java (enterprise-ai-java):
EnterpriseAIClient client = EnterpriseAIClient.builder()
.baseUrl("<control-plane-url>")
.apiKey(System.getenv("EAI_API_KEY"))
.build();
var items = client.models().list();
Go (enterprise-ai-go):
client, _ := eai.NewClient(eai.WithBaseURL("<control-plane-url>"), eai.WithAPIKey(os.Getenv("EAI_API_KEY")))
items, err := client.Models.List(ctx)
Configuration
- Environment:
EAI_DATABASE_URL,EAI_OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT. - Helm values:
controlPlane.enabled,controlPlane.replicas,controlPlane.resources,controlPlane.config,litellm.enabled,litellm.config.
Security controls
- Authentication by OIDC JWT, tenant API key with scopes, or SPIFFE mTLS; tenant resolved from the credential, never from the body.
- Authorization through OpenFGA and OPA decisions; every mutation and decision writes a hash-chained
eai.audit_eventsrow. - Secrets never returned by the API; TLS everywhere; Cilium network policies restrict who can reach the service.
Observability
- Metrics:
eai_model_registry_requests_total,eai_model_registry_errors_total,eai_model_registry_latency_seconds(Prometheus). - Traces: OpenTelemetry spans
eai.models.*with W3Ctraceparentpropagation, AI spans forwarded to Opik. - Audit actions:
model.create,model.update,model.delete,model.status,policy.evaluate.
FinOps aspects
Operating cost is allocated per tenant and project through labels on Usage Events and Kubernetes resource requests; no direct per-call cost.
Failure modes and resilience
- Stateless replicas behind the API Gateway, PostgreSQL HA for state; readiness probe
GET /readyzremoves unhealthy pods. - External system unavailable: fail closed for security decisions, explicit error code, no silent bypass.
Standalone adoption (client of a client)
A client of a client can adopt this brick alone with the Python SDK sub-client client.models (TS eai.models, Java client.models(), Go client.Models). Minimal deployment: Control Plane API + PostgreSQL + Keycloak (or API keys), the Control Plane loads every domain of services/control-plane/src/eai/domains; the optional chart components are switched off in deploy/helm/enterprise-ai/values.yaml (vllm.enabled, qdrant.enabled, nats.enabled, workers.enabled).
Acceptance tests
- A tenant cannot read or modify another tenant's resources (RLS test).
- Every mutation produces an audit event verifiable by
GET /v1/audit/verify. - Errors are returned in English and French according to
Accept-Language.
Versions, licences, weights, rollout and rollback (LLM_-004, LLM_-016)
Each version (eai.llm_model_versions, V135) carries a licence (SPDX expression or vendor terms reference https:// or LicenseRef-) and the weights provenance: source (hf://, oci://, https://, s3://, registry://), sha256: digest, size. A version starts draft; POST .../versions/{version}/approval opens a model_version_activation approval decided by another person (tenant_admin or security_officer, separation of duties); approved_by and approved_at are copied onto the version at publication. Without a granted approval the publication is refused (403 model_version_not_approved).
POST .../rollout publishes at 100 percent or opens a canary (1 to 99 percent of the traffic, split stably per session); POST .../rollback aborts the canary or restores the previous version. Every step is appended to eai.llm_model_rollout_history (V136) and audited (model.rollout.publish|canary|rollback). Tests: tests/test_llm_model_lifecycle.py.
