[BOT ISSUE] Vertex: add missing Meta Llama 4 Maverick and Scout MaaS entries

[github-actions]

Summary

Google Cloud Vertex AI offers Meta Llama 4 Maverick and Llama 4 Scout as managed MaaS (Model-as-a-Service) partner models with per-token pricing, but the catalog has no publishers/meta/models/llama-4-* entries. The existing publishers/meta/models/llama-3.*-maas entries (lines ~7390–7420) demonstrate the naming convention and entry format; the Llama 4 equivalents are absent.

Note: There are also no base llama-4-* entries in the catalog at all — these models are entirely missing from the catalog across all providers.

Missing Models

Model ID	Display Name	Provider	Pricing ($/1M tokens)
publishers/meta/models/llama-4-maverick-17b-128e-instruct-maas	Llama 4 Maverick (17B×128E)	vertex	$0.50 input / $1.50 output
publishers/meta/models/llama-4-scout-17b-16e-instruct-maas	Llama 4 Scout (17B×16E)	vertex	$0.20 input / $0.60 output

}

Token limits omitted — the Google Cloud model detail pages could not be scraped to confirm exact context window and max output values. The Llama 4 Maverick is documented at 1M tokens context and Llama 4 Scout at 10M tokens context on Meta's model card, but these should be verified against Vertex's actual limits before setting.

Sources

• Google Cloud Vertex AI Partner Models — lists Llama 4 Maverick and Llama 4 Scout under Partner Models > Meta Llama
• Vertex AI Pricing — lists meta/llama-4-maverick-17b-128e-instruct-maas at $0.50/$1.50 and meta/llama-4-scout-17b-16e-instruct-maas at $0.20/$0.60

Verification Checklist

Check	Status	Detail
Cross-source	✅	Partner models listing page confirms availability; pricing page confirms exact model IDs and per-token pricing
Already fixed	✅	grep for llama-4 and llama4 in model_list.json returns zero matches — no Llama 4 entries exist
ID format	✅	Follows existing publishers/meta/models/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-maas convention (line ~7390)
Duplicate check	✅	No open issue covers Llama 4 Vertex entries

Verification Notes

Field	Source	Notes
Model IDs	Vertex AI pricing page	meta/llama-4-maverick-17b-128e-instruct-maas and meta/llama-4-scout-17b-16e-instruct-maas; catalog key adds publishers/ + /models/ prefix per existing convention
format: "openai"	Existing publishers/meta/models/ entries	All use openai format
flavor: "chat"	Existing entries + Llama 4 model cards	Chat/instruction-tuned models
multimodal: true	Meta Llama 4 announcement	Both Maverick and Scout support image input
Pricing	Vertex AI pricing page	Maverick: $0.50/$1.50, Scout: $0.20/$0.60 per 1M tokens
Token limits	Not confirmed from Vertex docs	Meta's model cards list 1M (Maverick) and 10M (Scout) context, but Vertex may impose different limits

Local Files Inspected

• packages/proxy/schema/model_list.json — grep for llama-4 returns 0 matches; existing publishers/meta/models/llama-3.* entries at lines ~7390–7420
