This is an alternate solution to my previous attempt at adding custom header support for openAI compatible compatible providers. First #42817, then #45673. Each time I made the PR, it stayed there for a while without getting attention from maintainers, which would then cause merge conflict. The cycle continues through another PR another member from community created: #54712 This change does not have a UI, so I hope the smaller code change will help get it merged quicker than the previous attempts. |

@bennetbo thanks for taking a look at this! I've fixed the formatting issues. Looks like I'm unable to edit the "Allow edits by maintainers" setting now :-| |
Add a `custom_headers` setting to each HTTP-based language model provider (Anthropic, Bedrock, DeepSeek, Google, LM Studio, Mistral, Ollama, OpenAI, OpenAI-compatible, OpenCode, OpenRouter, Vercel AI Gateway, and xAI) so users can attach extra headers to every outgoing request. Headers managed by Zed (authentication, content-type, etc.) cannot be overridden and are skipped with a warning. Release Notes: - Added support for configuring custom HTTP headers on language model providers via `language_models.<provider>.custom_headers`. Signed-off-by: Aurabindo Pillai <mail@aurabindo.in>
