- plugins/image_gen/openrouter: list_models() now queries the endpoint's
/models catalog filtered to output_modalities containing "image"
(per-backend 5-min cache, 10s timeout, static 2-model chain as offline
fallback; openrouter/auto* router pseudo-models excluded). Every image
model OpenRouter serves — including future releases — is selectable in
`hermes tools` with no code change. Applies to Nous Portal too via the
shared provider class.
- plugins/image_gen/xai: forward the dispatched model kwarg into
_resolve_edit_model() so an explicitly selected edit-capable model is
honored on /images/edits (extends the salvaged #55893 fix to the edit
path; text-only models still fall back to quality).
- Tests: OpenRouter live-catalog filtering/exclusions/order, offline
fallback, cache single-fetch; xAI edit-kwarg forwarding incl. the
text-only-hijack negative case.
Live-verified against openrouter.ai: 9 image-output models returned and
rendered, matching the public models?output_modalities=image listing.
