# AI Models Database Configuration - Implementation Summary

**Date Completed:** December 24, 2025  
**Status:** ✅ **PRODUCTION READY**

---

## Overview

Successfully migrated AI model pricing from hardcoded constants to a dynamic database-driven system. The system now supports real-time model configuration via Django Admin without requiring code deployments.

---

## Implementation Phases (All Complete ✅)

### Phase 1: AIModelConfig Model ✅
**File:** `backend/igny8_core/business/billing/models.py`

Created comprehensive model with:
- 15 fields supporting both text and image models
- Text model fields: `input_cost_per_1m`, `output_cost_per_1m`, `context_window`, `max_output_tokens`
- Image model fields: `cost_per_image`, `valid_sizes` (JSON array)
- Capabilities: `supports_json_mode`, `supports_vision`, `supports_function_calling`
- Status fields: `is_active`, `is_default`, `sort_order`
- Audit trail: `created_at`, `updated_at`, `updated_by`
- History tracking via `django-simple-history`

**Methods:**
- `get_cost_for_tokens(input_tokens, output_tokens)` - Calculate text model cost
- `get_cost_for_images(num_images)` - Calculate image model cost
- `validate_size(size)` - Validate image size for model
- `get_display_with_pricing()` - Formatted string for dropdowns

---

### Phase 2: Migration & Data Seeding ✅
**File:** `backend/igny8_core/modules/billing/migrations/0020_create_ai_model_config.py`

**Seeded Models:**
- **Text Models (5):**
  - `gpt-4o-mini` (default) - $0.15/$0.60 per 1M | 128K context
  - `gpt-4o` - $2.50/$10.00 per 1M | 128K context | Vision
  - `gpt-4.1` - $2.00/$8.00 per 1M | 8K context
  - `gpt-5.1` - $1.25/$10.00 per 1M | 16K context
  - `gpt-5.2` - $1.75/$14.00 per 1M | 16K context

- **Image Models (4):**
  - `dall-e-3` (default) - $0.040/image | 3 sizes
  - `dall-e-2` - $0.020/image | 3 sizes
  - `gpt-image-1` (inactive) - $0.042/image
  - `gpt-image-1-mini` (inactive) - $0.011/image

**Total:** 9 models (7 active)

---

### Phase 3: Django Admin Interface ✅
**File:** `backend/igny8_core/modules/billing/admin.py`

**Features:**
- List display with colored badges (model type, provider)
- Formatted pricing display based on type
- Active/inactive and default status icons
- Filters: model_type, provider, is_active, capabilities
- Search: model_name, display_name, description
- Collapsible fieldsets organized by category

**Actions:**
- Bulk activate/deactivate models
- Set model as default (enforces single default per type)
- Export pricing table

**Access:** Django Admin → Billing → AI Model Configurations

---

### Phase 4 & 5: AI Core Integration ✅
**File:** `backend/igny8_core/ai/ai_core.py`

**Updated Functions:**
1. `run_ai_request()` (line ~294) - Text model cost calculation
2. `generate_image()` (line ~581) - Image model cost calculation
3. `calculate_cost()` (line ~822) - Helper method

**Implementation:**
- Lazy imports to avoid circular dependencies
- Database-first with fallback to constants
- Try/except wrapper for safety
- Logging shows source (database vs constants)

**Example:**
```python
# Before (hardcoded)
rates = MODEL_RATES.get(model, {'input': 2.00, 'output': 8.00})
cost = (input_tokens * rates['input'] + output_tokens * rates['output']) / 1_000_000

# After (database)
model_config = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name=model, model_type='text', is_active=True)
cost = model_config.get_cost_for_tokens(input_tokens, output_tokens)
```

---

### Phase 6: Validators Update ✅
**File:** `backend/igny8_core/ai/validators.py`

**Updated Functions:**
1. `validate_model(model, model_type)` - Checks database for active models
2. `validate_image_size(size, model)` - Uses model's `valid_sizes` from database

**Benefits:**
- Dynamic model availability
- Better error messages with available model lists
- Automatic sync with database state

---

### Phase 7: REST API Endpoint ✅
**Endpoint:** `GET /api/v1/billing/ai/models/`

**Files Created/Updated:**
- Serializer: `backend/igny8_core/modules/billing/serializers.py`
- ViewSet: `backend/igny8_core/modules/billing/views.py`

```

**Get Single Model:**

## Architecture

### Two Pricing Models Supported

**1. Text Models (Token-Based)**
- Credits calculated AFTER AI call
- Based on actual token usage
- Formula: `cost = (input_tokens × input_rate + output_tokens × output_rate) / 1M`

**2. Image Models (Per-Image)**
- Credits calculated BEFORE AI call
- Fixed cost per image
- Formula: `cost = cost_per_image × num_images`

### Data Flow

```

    ↓
If found: Use database pricing
If not found: Fallback to constants

## Usage Examples

### Django Admin
1. Navigate to: **Admin → Billing → AI Model Configurations**
2. Click on any model to edit pricing
3. Use filters to view specific model types
4. Use bulk actions to activate/deactivate

### API Usage (Frontend)
```javascript
// Fetch all text models
const response = await fetch('/api/v1/billing/ai/models/?type=text');
const { data: models } = await response.json();

// Display in dropdown
models.forEach(model => {
  console.log(model.display_name, model.pricing_display);
});
```

### Programmatic Usage (Backend)
```python
from igny8_core.business.billing.models import AIModelConfig

# Get model
model = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name='gpt-4o-mini')

# Calculate cost
cost = model.get_cost_for_tokens(1000, 500)  # $0.000450

# Validate size (images)
dalle = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name='dall-e-3')
is_valid = dalle.validate_size('1024x1024')  # True
```

---

## Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)

### Short Term
- [ ] Add model usage analytics to admin
- [ ] Create frontend UI for model selection
- [ ] Add model comparison view

### Long Term
- [ ] Add Anthropic models (Claude)
- [ ] Add Google models (Gemini)
- [ ] Implement A/B testing for models
- [ ] Add cost forecasting based on usage patterns

---

## Rollback Plan

If issues occur:

1. **Code Level:** All functions have fallback to constants
2. **Database Level:** Migration can be reversed: `python manage.py migrate billing 0019`
3. **Data Level:** No existing data affected (CreditUsageLog unchanged)
4. **Time Required:** < 5 minutes

**Risk:** Minimal - System has built-in fallback mechanisms
