The members concern key-less workers or agents using non-Anthropic anthropic_messages providers (e.g. custom providers, MiniMax), where an empty key produces an Illegal header value b'Bearer ' error. One issue reports the problem, and two pull requests propose resolving the provider's own or route key; the gateway PR also mentions keeping one owner connection.
