Recent Feature Highlights

  1. Refactor google-cloud-logging Plugin (Contributor: HuanXin-Chen)

This PR changed scope into scopes according to OAuth2/OIDC rules. It also replaced google-cloud-logging/oauth.lua with utils/google-cloud-oauth.lua.

  1. Add ai-content-moderation Plugin (Contributor: shreemaan-abhishek)

The ai-prompt-decorator plugin simplifies access to LLM providers, such as OpenAI and Anthropic, and their models by appending or prepending prompts into the request.

  1. Add ai-rag Plugin（Contributor: shreemaan-abhishek)

Implement the ai-rag plugin that uses RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation), to return information about untrained events/facts from LLMs.

  1. Add Total Request Panel in Grafana Dashboard (Contributor: Revolyssup)

As the Grafana dashboard only has panels for RPS per status code and RPS per service/route, this PR also adds a total RPS panel for the overview of RPS changes.

  1. Use setmetatable to Set Hidden Variables without Effecting Serialisation in body-transformer Plugin (Contributor: Revolyssup)

Users hope to directly use the decoded body in the template of body-transformer plugin, modify its fields, and then encode it again.

  1. Support configuring key_claim_name in jwt-auth Plugin (Contributor: shreemaan-abhishek)

Configuring key_claim_name in the JWT plugin is essential for specifying which claim in the JWT contains the key that identifies the secret used for validating the token.

  1. Suppress Error Log in Multi-Authentication When One Authentication Succeeds (Contributor: shreemaan-abhishek)

When using multiple authentication plugins, even if one authentication plugin passes verification while others fail, an error log is still recorded, which can confuse the user. This PR fixes the logic so that if any one of the authentication plugins passes, no error log will be recorded.
