# What does this PR do?
This PR kills the notion of "pure passthrough" remote providers. You
cannot specify a single provider you must specify a whole distribution
(stack) as remote.
This PR also significantly fixes / upgrades testing infrastructure so
you can now test against a remotely hosted stack server by just doing
```bash
pytest -s -v -m remote test_agents.py \
--inference-model=Llama3.1-8B-Instruct --safety-shield=Llama-Guard-3-1B \
--env REMOTE_STACK_URL=http://localhost:5001
```
Also fixed `test_agents_persistence.py` (which was broken) and killed
some deprecated testing functions.
## Test Plan
All the tests.
# What does this PR do?
This is a follow-up to #425. That PR allows for specifying models in the
registry, but each entry needs to look like:
```yaml
- identifier: ...
provider_id: ...
provider_resource_identifier: ...
```
This is headache-inducing.
The current PR makes this situation better by adopting the shape of our
APIs. Namely, we need the user to only specify `model-id`. The rest
should be optional and figured out by the Stack. You can always override
it.
Here's what example `ollama` "full stack" registry looks like (we still
need to kill or simplify shield_type crap):
```yaml
models:
- model_id: Llama3.2-3B-Instruct
- model_id: Llama-Guard-3-1B
shields:
- shield_id: llama_guard
shield_type: llama_guard
```
## Test Plan
See test plan for #425. Re-ran it.
