Extracted from #41733 without the router loop, the cache machine layer, streaming, or the
error, timeout and route-pruning work that moved to #41745
litellm-callbacks holds the contract a native call and its host share: Machine, HostOp,
CallEvent, the in-process run loop, and Passthrough, which is built only by comparing the
caller's inputs with the body the route sends, so a route can never mark a key it rewrote.
litellm-host-python (formerly python-interop) owns the CPython driver and the Execution
handle, and litellm-callbacks-legacy is the @client wrapper as the native call sees it:
function_setup, the deployment hooks, pre_call and post_call, the success and failure fan-out
and the deferred proxy release. OCR is the one route on it, and the old core and bridge
lifecycles are gone
The passthrough rule is the structural fix for the bug #41719 patched in core and #41716
reworks: an inlined remote document no longer counts as the caller's value, so the legacy
adapter never hands the caller's URL back into the body. core/tests/ocr/passthrough.rs pins
it for every route and document source, including that unchanged values stay passthrough,
and callbacks-legacy/tests/payload.rs pins the adapter side with a real pre_call callback
Python OCR integration tests that only exercised core behavior now live as Rust tests, so
tests/test_litellm_rust keeps the cases that need the full Python stack
Each route now has litellm/rust_bridge/<route>/{entrypoints,callbacks}.py and a
public dispatch module (litellm/chat_completions/dispatch.py,
litellm/responses/dispatch.py, litellm/messages/dispatch.py) that binds the
public call to the legacy Python signature, builds a frozen request, and asks
the runtime to pick Rust or Python from the catalog. The legacy implementations
stay in litellm/main.py, litellm/responses/main.py and the anthropic messages
handler, and litellm/__init__.py re-exports the dispatch names over them the
same way it already does for ocr
The per-handler shims in rust_bridge/chat_completions/native.py and
rust_bridge/messages/native.py are removed along with their call sites in the
anthropic and bedrock chat handlers and the http handler. The exception
mapping that every callbacks module repeated moves to rust_bridge/failures.py
and the signature binding helpers to rust_bridge/public_call.py
