From 0c2344614f340382654c80b076335e7e19a4c26d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: mateo Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 21:03:49 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/5] docs: replace the example master key sk-1234 with placeholders Shell and curl examples now reference $LITELLM_API_KEY, config examples use os.environ/LITELLM_MASTER_KEY, env files point at a generated placeholder, and code/docstring literals use sk- or sk- for managed virtual keys.
