When does this happen?
IF Multimodal request with image_url fails on primary provider and falls back to secondary provider expecting different format (e.g., Gemini expects inline_data), causing image data to be lost.
How others solved it
THEN Deep-copy the messages dictionary before applying provider-specific transformations in the router's fallback logic. This ensures each provider receives an unmutated copy and can apply its own format conversion. Alternatively, store the original request payload separately and regenerate the provider-specific payload for each attempt.
import copy # Inside fallback handler: original_messages = copy.deepcopy(request.messages) # Transform for each provider without mutating shared object
