MCP server CRUD endpoints (/v1/mcp/server*) were bundled with MCP
tool-call / passthrough endpoints under llm_api_routes, so setting
DISABLE_LLM_API_ENDPOINTS=true on admin-only nodes also blocked the
Admin UI from listing, adding, or attaching MCP servers.
Separate mcp_inference_routes (data-plane, gated by
DISABLE_LLM_API_ENDPOINTS) from mcp_management_routes (control-plane,
gated by DISABLE_ADMIN_ENDPOINTS). Keep mcp_routes as a union for
backward compat with allowed_routes=["mcp_routes"] virtual key configs.
Upgrade is_management_route to pattern-aware matching so
/v1/mcp/server/{path:path} resolves for concrete IDs.
The error message for DISABLE_ADMIN_ENDPOINTS incorrectly said
"DISABLING LLM API ENDPOINTS is an Enterprise feature" instead of
"DISABLING ADMIN ENDPOINTS is an Enterprise feature".
This was a copy-paste bug from the is_llm_api_route_disabled() function.
Added regression tests to verify both error messages are correct.
* feat(route_checks.py): allow admin to disable proxy management endpoints on instance
useful for preventing multiple instances from doing admin actions
* docs(scaling_multiple_instances.md): add architecture doc on scaling multiple litellm instances
provide guidance on scaling proxy
* docs(scaling_multiple_instances.md): add doc on scaling across multiple regions for litellm
* fix(route_checks.py): allow disabling llm api endpoints on an instance
allows pure admin instance to exist
* refactor(enterprise/route_checks.py): refactor env var checks
* refactor: finish refactoring
* docs(control_plane_and_data_plane.md): refactor docs
* test: update tests
