fix(sse): don't bypass web-search fallback for Anthropic-compatible providers without server tools (#4481) (#4490)

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -42,6 +42,7 @@
 - **fix(translator): inject a placeholder message when the Responses API `input[]` is empty** — a `POST /v1/responses` with `input: []` translated to `messages: []`, which every upstream Chat-Completions provider rejects (surfaced as a confusing 406); a single placeholder user message is now injected, mirroring the existing empty-string handling. ([#4393](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/4393) — thanks @diegosouzapw)
 - **fix(providers): serve the api.airforce live `/models` catalog instead of the stale seed** — the api.airforce provider listed a stale hard-coded seed; it now serves the upstream live `/models` catalog. ([#4395](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/4395) — thanks @diegosouzapw)
 - **fix(cli): non-interactive-safe prompts + `context` alias** — the CLI's `confirm()`/prompt helpers no longer hang in non-interactive (piped/CI) contexts, and a singular `context` alias is accepted alongside `contexts`; the contexts workflow is documented. ([#4439](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/4439), [#4397](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/4397) — thanks @diegosouzapw)
+- **fix(sse): `web_search_20250305` no longer 400s on MiniMax's Anthropic-compatible endpoint** — PR #2960 added a Claude→Claude bypass that forwards Anthropic's typed server tool `web_search_20250305` untouched, assuming the Claude-format upstream implements Anthropic server tools. MiniMax's `/anthropic` endpoint does not, so `claude → minimax` requests carrying that tool got `HTTP 400 "invalid params, function name or parameters is empty (2013)"`. `supportsNativeWebSearchFallbackBypass` now consults the (already-plumbed) `provider` and excludes providers known not to implement server tools (currently `minimax`) from the bypass, so the built-in web-search tool is converted to the `omniroute_web_search` function fallback — which MiniMax accepts as a normal function tool. ([#4481](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/issues/4481) — thanks @shafqatevo)
