PR #635 returned HTTP 200 with {"input_tokens": 0} when upstream doesn't
support count_tokens (404). This caused Claude Code CLI to trust the zero
value, believing context uses 0 tokens, so auto-compression never triggers.
Fix: return 404 with proper error body so CLI falls back to its local
tokenizer for accurate estimation. Return nil (not error) to avoid
polluting ops error metrics with expected 404s.
Affected paths:
- Passthrough APIKey accounts: upstream 404 now passed through as 404
- Antigravity accounts: same fix (was also returning fake 200)
