Dustin Healy 5867f1a065 🛡️ feat: Configurable Message PII Filter (#13602)
* 🛡️ feat: Reject chat messages matching configured credential patterns

Adds an opt-in `messagePiiFilter` middleware mounted on the agent
chat route ahead of `moderateText`. When the configured patterns
match the user's input the request is refused with 400, so the
credential never reaches OpenAI moderation, the model, or MongoDB.
Three starter patterns ship by default and operators can subset
them or add their own regex via `customPatterns` in librechat.yaml.

* 🧪 test: Memoize compiled patterns + add middleware spec

Memoize the compiled pattern array via a WeakMap keyed by the
messagePiiFilter config object so repeat requests against the same
config skip the per-request RegExp construction. Cache entries are
released automatically when the config object itself rotates.

Adds packages/api/src/middleware/messagePiiFilter.spec.ts covering
the default-starter rejections, the starterPatterns subset and
empty-array semantics, customPatterns matching layered on top of and
in place of the starters, the no-config and empty-text pass-through
paths, and a memoization regression check.

* 🛡️ fix: Skip invalid customPattern regexes instead of crashing the request

Admin DB overrides for `messagePiiFilter.customPatterns` reach
`req.config` via `mergeConfigOverrides`, which deep-merges raw
override values without re-running `configSchema`. A typo'd regex
like `(` would slip past the YAML-load validation and throw inside
`new RegExp(...)` during `compile()`, returning 500 for every chat
request until the operator rolled the override back.

Wrapped the per-pattern compile in a try/catch that logs the
invalid pattern id + reason and skips it, so other valid patterns
(starters and other custom entries) keep filtering. Added a
regression test alongside the existing spec.

* 🛡️ feat: Extend PII filter to OpenAI-compatible and Responses agent APIs

The chat-route middleware operates on `req.body.text`, but the remote
agent API endpoints (`/api/agents/v1/chat/completions`,
`/api/agents/v1/responses`) accept the same prompt content as a
`messages` array or an `input` field. A caller using their API key
could send a credential-shaped value through either route and bypass
the configured PII filter even though they share the same agent and
model backbone the middleware is meant to guard.

Factored out `findPiiMatchInMessages`, a tolerant walker that handles
both `content: string` and `content: ContentPart[]` user-message
shapes against the same compiled, cached pattern list. Wired it into
the OpenAI-compat controller after agent lookup and into the
Responses controller right after `convertToInternalMessages`. Each
returns the endpoint's native 400 error shape
(`sendErrorResponse` / `sendResponsesErrorResponse`) with the
`message_pii_filter_block` code when a user message matches.

* 🩹 test: Add findPiiMatchInMessages to OpenAI + Responses controller mocks

The OpenAI-compat and Responses controller specs mock `@librechat/api`
with a hand-listed object. The new `findPiiMatchInMessages` export
wired into both controllers in 3ea35af9a was missing from those
mocks, so the production lookup returned undefined and the controllers
threw at request time under jest. Added the missing entries (default
mock: returns null so the handlers fall through to the existing happy
paths). All 278 agents-controller tests pass locally.

* 🧹 refactor: Namespace messagePiiFilter under messageFilter.pii + fix import order

Renames the yaml field `messagePiiFilter` to `messageFilter.pii`, the
module to `messageFilterPii`, the factory to `createMessageFilterPii`,
the type to `MessageFilterPiiConfig`, and the error code to
`message_filter_pii_block`. The wrapper `messageFilter` namespace
gives future safety filters (e.g. `messageFilter.toxicity`) a place
to plug in without restructuring the config later. The
`findPiiMatchInMessages` helper kept its name because it already
describes what it does at the value level.

Also fixes import order Danny flagged on the OpenAI-compatible and
Responses controllers: `findPiiMatchInMessages` was appended at the
bottom of two `require('@librechat/api')` destructures rather than
placed in the length-sorted slot the house style expects.

* 🧹 chore: Length-sort the general require destructure in responses.js

Reorders the general sub-group inside the `require('@librechat/api')`
destructure shortest to longest so the whole block conforms to the
length-sort rule the file's `// Responses API` sub-group already
follows. Pure reorder, no other changes.

* 🧹 chore: Length-sort the defaultConfig block in AppService

Reorders the `defaultConfig` keys in `packages/data-schemas/src/app/service.ts`
shortest-line to longest-line, with the explicit-value entries
(`mcpConfig`, `fileStrategies`, `cloudfront`) trailing the shorthand
ones. Pure reorder, no behavior change.
