Add support for configuring providers in priority tiers, where lower-tier (higher priority) providers are used first, and higher-tier providers serve as fallbacks only when all lower-tier providers are exhausted.
Use Case
Many users have multiple API access methods with different cost structures:
Tier 1: Subscription-based accounts (e.g., Claude Max) - cheaper/included usage
Tier 2: Usage-based API keys (e.g., pay-per-token) - more expensive
Currently, CLIProxyAPI uses round-robin across all providers equally, which means expensive usage-based credentials get consumed even when cheaper subscription-based options are available.
