Summary

  • Gateway: add weight field to CandidateConfig and RouteCandidate, multiply it into every capacity-based draw arm (weighted, between_two, two_choices)
  • Operator: add weight to ServingCandidate, wired from RoutingCandidate.traffic_weight, with duplicate folding by largest weight
  • Backward-compatible: both sides use Option with serde defaults/skip, so mixed-version rollouts are safe

Closes #460

Test plan

  • Gateway: two sites with equal capacity/rho and weights 3:1, drawn over 4000 turns — heavier site takes ~75%
  • Operator: traffic_weight flows through to ServingCandidate.weight
  • Operator: duplicate candidates fold to the largest weight
  • Golden file unchanged (weight absent → skipped in JSON)
  • All 291 gateway filter tests pass
  • All 26 serving_config tests pass
  • Clippy clean in both workspaces

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Traffic weights can be configured for destinations to influence traffic distribution. When destinations have comparable capacity, higher-weight destinations are selected more often; weights also factor into capacity-based selection.
    • Destinations without a specified weight retain the default behavior. If a destination is listed more than once with different weights, the highest declared weight is applied.
    • A weight of zero is rejected.

Walkthrough

The operator now carries candidate traffic weights into serving configuration. The gateway accepts optional candidate weights, defaults missing weights to 1, rejects zero, and applies weights during capacity-based site selection.

Changes: Weighted site routing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preserve weights in serving configuration
crates/operator/src/resources/serving_config.rs
Serving candidates carry optional weights. Duplicate candidates retain the largest declared weight, and rendered candidates receive the folded value. Tests cover propagation, omission, and duplicate handling.
Accept and validate candidate weights
crates/gateway/crates/ai-grid-filters/src/descriptor.rs, crates/gateway/crates/ai-grid-filters/src/{conformance,control,dial,flow,provider,snapshot}.rs
Candidate configuration accepts an optional weight. Validation rejects weight 0 and uses 1 when the weight is absent. Candidate fixtures initialize the new field.
Apply weights during site selection
crates/gateway/crates/ai-grid-filters/src/route.rs, crates/gateway/crates/ai-grid-filters/benches/choose.rs
Capacity-based draws, two-site shares, and two-choice draws incorporate candidate weights. Tests check weighted selection across these paths. Benchmark candidates use weight 1.

Priority: Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changed production code carries provider capacity weight through serving configuration and applies it to the gateway site-selection paths required by [#460]. Fixture updates, compatibility serialization, validation, and focused tests support that objective. No unrelated change is shown.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The implementation satisfies the main [#460] behavior. The operator carries traffic_weight into ServingCandidate.weight and keeps the largest duplicate weight. The gateway defaults an absent weight to 1, rejects zero, and applies the weight to the capacity draw, between_two, and two_choices paths. The current changes add weighted pressure and two-choice coverage. The reviewed evidence does not show a gateway parsing test for both absent and explicit weight, or the requested weighted serving_reload.rs end-to-end test for operator-rendered routing.

Resolution

Add automated coverage for [#460] that parses serving configurations with absent and explicit weight. Add the weighted serving_reload.rs end-to-end test, or provide equivalent automated coverage for operator-rendered weighted routing.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 72.73% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 11 functions across 10 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Review comments at @crates/gateway/crates/ai-grid-filters/src/descriptor.rs:
- Around line 129-131: Reject zero for the descriptor’s weight during
deserialization or gateway validation, and update the conversion to
RouteCandidate.weight to handle the validated nonzero value. Keep draining
behavior separate from weight validation.

Review comments at @crates/operator/src/resources/serving_config.rs:
- Around line 959-963: Extend the serving-config test around render so it
exercises weighted candidates end to end: render the configuration, serialize
and reload it through the gateway, and verify the resulting selection. Keep the
existing in-memory candidate weight assertion and avoid setting runtime weights
directly, so the test covers propagation through the gateway.
- Around line 149-150: Update the serving-config serialization path for `weight`
so it omits the field until the target gateway accepts it; do not emit it merely
because `traffic_weight` is `Some`. Correct the `weight` field comment to state
that older gateways reject configs containing this field.

pazqo force-pushed the fix/capacity-weight-grid-site-route branch from beb5c46 to 798a188 Compare October 29, 2026 09:25
pazqo and others added 2 commits October 30, 2026 10:45
The operator's `traffic_weight` (from `capacityWeight` on the provider
CRD) was never carried to `ServingCandidate`, so `grid_site_route`
always drew with weight 1 regardless of configuration.

Gateway: add `weight` to `CandidateConfig` and `RouteCandidate`, and
multiply it into every capacity-based draw arm (`weighted`,
`between_two`, `two_choices`).

Operator: add `weight` to `ServingCandidate`, populated from
`RoutingCandidate.traffic_weight`, folding duplicates by the largest.

Closes praxis-proxy#460

Reject `weight: 0` in gateway candidate validation to prevent NaN in
draw functions.  Correct the `ServingCandidate.weight` doc comment:
an older gateway with `deny_unknown_fields` rejects the config rather
than defaulting to 1.  Add tests for the zero-weight guard, the JSON
round-trip, and the absent-weight omission.

- Line 2431: Update the test using two_sites to provide measured capacity and
pressure for eligible sites, then add weighted cases covering the between_two
and two_choices draw arms with two and three eligible sites.
- Line 1393: Update the rate and share calculations in between_two so the
exploration clamp applies to the capacity-and-pressure share before candidate
weights are applied. Compute the final selection share using each candidate’s
declared weight, preserving the existing clamped base share and selection
behavior.

The 0.1..0.9 exploration clamp was applied after multiplying by
declared weight, limiting a 1000:1 ratio to 90:10.  Apply the clamp
to the capacity/pressure share first, then scale by declared weight
so operator-set ratios are honoured.

Add tests for the between_two and two_choices draw arms with measured
pressure and declared weights.

thanks for picking this up!

the draw math is right but grid_site_route plugin still ignores capacity weight outside weighted random filter. the operator fills traffic weight only in that mode so every other network sends weight one to the gateway. read capacity weight in the fold so the weight shapes every grid site route draw.

(Some(held), Some(incoming)) => Some(held.max(incoming)),
_ => None,
};
match (folded.weight, candidate.traffic_weight) {

this reads traffic weight which the operator only fills under weighted random so every other mode still gets weight one and the fold should read capacity weight instead

/// `traffic_weight`. Omitted when absent; a gateway that predates this field rejects the config
/// via `deny_unknown_fields`, so the gateway must accept the field before the operator emits it.

nit: once the value comes from capacity weight the field is always emitted so the comment should say the gateway ships first in every rollout

let base_share = (rate(first.0) / (rate(first.0) + rate(second.0))).clamp(TWO_SITE_SHARE.0, TWO_SITE_SHARE.1);
let first_weighted = base_share * f64::from(first.0.weight);
let second_weighted = (1.0 - base_share) * f64::from(second.0.weight);
let share = first_weighted / (first_weighted + second_weighted);

question: the weight lands after the clamp so a thousand to one weight pushes a site to nearly all of the traffic and the floor that keeps a loaded site sampled no longer holds is that intended

let a = taken["a"];
let b = taken["b"];
let c = taken["c"];
assert!(a > b && a > c, "the heavier site takes the most: a={a}, b={b}, c={c}");

nit: with three to one to one and equal rho the expected share for a is about sixty percent so a band would catch a regression
