- PR #20070: fix(runtime-provider): ensure /v1 suffix for local OpenAI-compatible base URLs (#7516)

The three members share one theme: local Ollama or OpenAI-compatible endpoints reportedly need a /v1 suffix on the base URL when using the OpenAI SDK client, with one issue describing a 404 and two pull requests proposing URL normalization. The titles alone do not show whether any change was merged or whether the problem is fixed.
