* test(ci): add used_client_oauth_token to the GCS pub/sub spend-log golden #43063 stamps used_client_oauth_token into spend-log metadata, so test_async_gcs_pub_sub_v1 failed on main with an extra metadata key * test(ui): give the auto-router threshold save wait room for the availability debounce #42625 keeps Save disabled while a 300ms-debounced availability check runs. This test waits for Save right after the change, so the whole debounce lands inside waitFor's 1s default and it times out under CI load. It is the recurring UI Unit Tests failure on main since #42625 landed * test(e2e): expect no pricing tier on bills for streamed calls OpenAI served at default #42870 added both the rule that a served default or standard tier bills at base pricing and records no service_tier, and streamed tests expecting the row to record 'default'. They have failed on every scheduled litellm-e2e run since. The tests now map the served tier to the pricing basis the bill must record and check input is billed at that basis's rate; the messages case registers custom rates so the rate check has something to compare against * test(e2e-ui): wait for the call-id search before hovering the logs row The row the spec hovers is already on the unfiltered first page, so it was found before the search request returned. The search response then re-rendered the table under the mouse, and the Base UI tooltip never opened. Reproduced with Playwright against a local proxy: hovering right after the fill never shows the tooltip, hovering after the search response shows the call id every time * test(e2e): run the Together structured-output case on the hybrid Qwen with reasoning off The case picked the cheapest Together row flagged supports_response_schema. DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 hit its cost-map deprecation date on 2026-09-29, so the pick moved to GLM-5.3-Flash, a reasoning-only model that spends the 1024-token budget thinking and returns content=None. Qwen3.5-9B is the pinned hybrid model the reasoning_effort=none case already exercises, and Together lists it with structured output support * test(integration): read the agent 365 guardrail status by its own name in spend logs The MCP shard runs under xdist against one database, and a sibling file creates a default_on pre_mcp_call content filter there. The owned proxy reloads DB guardrails, so that filter's 'success' entry could land first in guardrail_information and the test read it instead of the agent 365 verdict * test(unit): ignore asyncio's leaked-task records in the budget limiter push-failure log check gc.collect() inside the caplog window can collect a pending task an earlier test left on a closed loop, and asyncio logs 'Task was destroyed but it is pending' into this test's records. The check still counts every LiteLLM logger, and unretrieved task exceptions on this loop still go through the asserted exception handler * test(e2e-ui): fill the create-tag fields inside the dialog #42949 added 'Filter by tag name' and 'Filter by description' inputs to the Tag Management page, so page-wide getByLabel('Tag Name') and getByLabel('Description') match two elements and Playwright's strict mode fails the create step * test(integration): run integration proxies with the CI license Multi-worker proxies start each uvicorn worker in a fresh process, so every worker reads the license from its environment. Forward LITELLM_LICENSE into the proxy and test runner environments * ci: save GitHub Actions caches only from main and bump codecov-action to 5.5.5 Every pull request saved its own uv, maturin, Rust and Prisma caches, about 4.5 GB per PR, so the repository's 10 GB cache budget evicted main's entries within minutes. Pull request jobs then missed every cache, downloaded all dependencies from PyPI and hit the install step timeouts. Pull requests now restore only, and main keeps the caches warm for them. test-linting and check-ui-api-types run only on pull requests and keep saving codecov-action 5.5.4 imports its signing key from the deleted codecovsecurity keybase account, so every upload failed signature verification. 5.5.5 reads it from codecovsecops; the key ID matches the one signing the current CLI * test(unit): join the session-minting thread before collecting the handler asyncio.to_thread resumes the test as soon as the worker sets its result, while the pool thread can still hold the work item and through it the handler. gc.collect() then cannot finalize the handler and the session stays open. A pool that shuts down before the test continues drops that reference * test(integration): relaunch owned proxies that lose their port, expire idle gateway connections early owned_proxy_process released its reserved port and the proxy bound it only after full startup, so another xdist worker or an outgoing connection could take it first and the proxy exited with 'address already in use'. The launch now retries on a fresh port when that happens and stops every failed attempt. uvicorn closes idle keep-alive connections after 5 seconds and httpx expired them at the same 5 seconds, so a request sent right at that mark could reuse a socket the server was closing and get 'Connection reset by peer'. Gateway clients now drop idle connections after 2 seconds * ci(circleci): give the base SDK wheel build the same 30 minute no-output window as the Windows build The release profile builds with fat LTO and one codegen unit, so the final link of litellm-cache-s3 runs silently for minutes. Successful builds take 711 to 749 seconds, right at the default 10 minute no-output limit, and about 30% of recent runs were killed there * test(integration): model the budget-reset database outage as 10 seconds instead of 5 refused connections The proxy retries the database about every 30 seconds and each retry opens roughly one connection, so a 5-connection outage took 3 to 4 retries to clear and recovery landed between 60 and 90 seconds, straddling the test's 80 second reset window. A fixed 10 second outage still refuses the immediate reconnect and recovers on the next retry * ci: move the unit-test uv cache split into a composite action check_workflow_startup_safety sums every setup step's timeout, so the save and restore variants each counted 5 minutes although only one runs. One composite step keeps the setup ceiling at 35 minutes * test(unit): point tiktoken at the bundled cache for every unit test The rust_bridge tokenizer tests loaded o200k_base before any test in their xdist worker had imported default_encoding, so tiktoken fell back to the temp cache and tried to download under pytest-socket. Move the session fixture from litellm_core_utils/conftest.py to the root unit conftest. * test(integration): answer model discovery probes in the hosted_vllm wire tests The router's periodic upstream model info refresh sends GET /v1/models to hosted_vllm deployments, so a wire server that is live during a refresh sees an extra request. Answer the probe with an empty model list and leave it out of the provider-call assertions, matching the responses bridge tests. |

🚅 LiteLLM
LiteLLM AI Gateway
Open Source AI Gateway for 100+ LLMs. Self-hosted. Enterprise-ready. Call any LLM in OpenAI format.
LiteLLM Proxy Server (AI Gateway) | Hosted Proxy | Enterprise Tier | Website
What is LiteLLM
LiteLLM is an open source AI Gateway that gives you a single, unified interface to call 100+ LLM providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Azure, and more — using the OpenAI format.
Use it as a Python SDK for direct library integration, or deploy the AI Gateway (Proxy Server) as a centralized service for your team or organization.

Why LiteLLM
Managing LLM calls across providers gets complicated fast — different SDKs, auth patterns, request formats, and error types for every model. LiteLLM removes that friction:
- Unified API — one interface for 100+ LLMs, no provider-specific SDK juggling
- Drop-in OpenAI compatibility — swap providers without rewriting your code
- Production-ready gateway — virtual keys, spend tracking, guardrails, load balancing, and an admin dashboard out of the box
- 8ms P95 latency at 1k RPS (benchmarks)

Features
LLMs - Call 100+ LLMs (Python SDK + AI Gateway)
All Supported Endpoints - /chat/completions, /responses, /embeddings, /images, /audio, /batches, /rerank, /a2a, /messages and more.
Python SDK
uv add litellm
from litellm import completion
import os
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-openai-key"
os.environ["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] = "your-anthropic-key"
# OpenAI
response = completion(model="openai/gpt-4o", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}])
# Anthropic
response = completion(model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}])
AI Gateway (Proxy Server)
Getting Started - E2E Tutorial - Setup virtual keys, make your first request
uv tool install 'litellm[proxy]'
litellm --model gpt-4o
import openai
client = openai.OpenAI(api_key="anything", base_url="http://0.0.0.0:4000")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
Agents - Invoke A2A Agents (Python SDK + AI Gateway)
Supported Providers - LangGraph, Vertex AI Agent Engine, Azure AI Foundry, Bedrock AgentCore, Pydantic AI
Python SDK - A2A Protocol
from litellm.a2a_protocol import A2AClient
from a2a.types import SendMessageRequest, MessageSendParams
from uuid import uuid4
client = A2AClient(base_url="http://localhost:10001")
request = SendMessageRequest(
id=str(uuid4()),
params=MessageSendParams(
message={
"role": "user",
"parts": [{"kind": "text", "text": "Hello!"}],
"messageId": uuid4().hex,
}
)
)
response = await client.send_message(request)
AI Gateway (Proxy Server)
Step 1. Add your Agent to the AI Gateway — set protocolVersion to 1.0 or 0.3 per agent
Step 2. Call Agent via A2A SDK (requires a2a-sdk>=1.1.0)
import httpx
from a2a.client import A2ACardResolver, ClientConfig, ClientFactory
from a2a.types import Message, Part, Role, SendMessageRequest
from a2a.utils.constants import TransportProtocol
from uuid import uuid4
base_url = "http://localhost:4000/a2a/my-agent" # LiteLLM proxy + agent name
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer <your-master-key>"} # LiteLLM master key or a virtual key
async with httpx.AsyncClient(headers=headers, timeout=60.0) as http_client:
resolver = A2ACardResolver(httpx_client=http_client, base_url=base_url)
agent_card = await resolver.get_agent_card()
config = ClientConfig(
httpx_client=http_client,
streaming=False,
supported_protocol_bindings=[TransportProtocol.JSONRPC, TransportProtocol.HTTP_JSON],
)
client = ClientFactory(config).create(agent_card)
request = SendMessageRequest(
message=Message(
message_id=uuid4().hex,
role=Role.ROLE_USER,
parts=[Part(text="Hello!")],
)
)
async for event in client.send_message(request):
populated = event.ListFields()
if populated and populated[0][0].name in ("message", "msg"):
print("".join(getattr(p, "text", "") or "" for p in populated[0][1].parts))
MCP Tools - Connect MCP servers to any LLM (Python SDK + AI Gateway)
Python SDK - MCP Bridge
from mcp import ClientSession, StdioServerParameters
from mcp.client.stdio import stdio_client
from litellm import experimental_mcp_client
import litellm
server_params = StdioServerParameters(command="python", args=["mcp_server.py"])
async with stdio_client(server_params) as (read, write):
async with ClientSession(read, write) as session:
await session.initialize()
# Load MCP tools in OpenAI format
tools = await experimental_mcp_client.load_mcp_tools(session=session, format="openai")
# Use with any LiteLLM model
response = await litellm.acompletion(
model="gpt-4o",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What's 3 + 5?"}],
tools=tools
)
AI Gateway - MCP Gateway
Step 1. Add your MCP Server to the AI Gateway
Step 2. Call MCP tools via /chat/completions
curl -X POST 'http://0.0.0.0:4000/v1/chat/completions' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <your-master-key>' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-4o",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Summarize the latest open PR"}],
"tools": [{
"type": "mcp",
"server_url": "litellm_proxy/mcp/github",
"server_label": "github_mcp",
"require_approval": "never"
}]
}'
Use with Cursor IDE
{
"mcpServers": {
"LiteLLM": {
"url": "http://localhost:4000/mcp/",
"headers": {
"x-litellm-api-key": "Bearer <your-master-key>"
}
}
}
}
For MCP OAuth, an upstream may advertise dynamic client registration but refuse requests with HTTP 401 or 403. If the provider requires a pre-registered OAuth app, configure its credentials.client_id and, when required, credentials.client_secret on the MCP server. This skips dynamic registration in the gateway sign-in flow. The provider must approve the app for MCP access; reaching its authorization page does not establish that login or tool calls will succeed
Supported Providers (Website Supported Models | Docs)
Get Started
You can use LiteLLM through either the Proxy Server or Python SDK. Both give you a unified interface to access multiple LLMs (100+ LLMs). Choose the option that best fits your needs:
| LiteLLM AI Gateway | LiteLLM Python SDK | |
|---|---|---|
| Use Case | Central service (LLM Gateway) to access multiple LLMs | Use LiteLLM directly in your Python code |
| Who Uses It? | Gen AI Enablement / ML Platform Teams | Developers building LLM projects |
| Key Features | Centralized API gateway with authentication and authorization, multi-tenant cost tracking and spend management per project/user, per-project customization (logging, guardrails, caching), virtual keys for secure access control, admin dashboard UI for monitoring and management | Direct Python library integration in your codebase, Router with retry/fallback logic across multiple deployments (e.g. Azure/OpenAI) - Router, application-level load balancing and cost tracking, exception handling with OpenAI-compatible errors, observability callbacks (Lunary, MLflow, Langfuse, etc.) |
Stable Release: Use docker images with the -stable tag. These have undergone 12 hour load tests, before being published. More information about the release cycle here
Support for more providers. Missing a provider or LLM Platform, raise a feature request.
Deploy on AWS or GCP with Terraform
Run the LiteLLM proxy as a production-ready componentized stack (gateway, backend, UI on separate services; managed Postgres + Redis + object store) using the published Terraform modules. Both modules are on the public Terraform Registry — no auth needed.
AWS — ECS Fargate + Aurora + ElastiCache + ALB
git clone https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm.git
cd litellm/terraform/litellm/aws/examples/default
cp terraform.tfvars.example terraform.tfvars # edit region/tenant/env
terraform init && terraform apply
Or call the module from your own root config:
# main.tf
terraform {
required_version = ">= 1.6.0"
required_providers {
aws = { source = "hashicorp/aws", version = "~> 5.60" }
}
}
provider "aws" {
region = "us-west-2"
}
module "litellm" {
source = "BerriAI/litellm/aws"
version = "~> 1.89"
region = "us-west-2"
azs = ["us-west-2a", "us-west-2b"]
tenant = "acme"
env = "prod"
# Production: provide an ACM cert. Without one, set allow_plaintext_alb = true
# (dev/trial only).
# acm_certificate_arn = "arn:aws:acm:us-west-2:111122223333:certificate/..."
allow_plaintext_alb = true
}
output "litellm_url" {
value = module.litellm.alb_dns_name
}
terraform init
terraform apply
Provider API keys live in AWS Secrets Manager; reference ARNs via gateway_extra_secrets. Full input list and architecture diagram on the registry page.
GCP — Cloud Run + Cloud SQL + Memorystore + HTTPS LB
Real 1-click. Opens Cloud Shell, clones this repo, and walks you through terraform apply via a built-in DeployStack tutorial — pick the project, the tutorial sets up the Artifact Registry remote repo, writes terraform.tfvars from your answers, and runs apply.
To call the module from your own config instead, Cloud Run can't pull from ghcr.io directly, so first set up a one-time Artifact Registry remote repo backed by GHCR:
gcloud artifacts repositories create litellm \
--location=us-central1 \
--repository-format=docker \
--mode=remote-repository \
--remote-docker-repo=https://ghcr.io \
--project=my-gcp-project
Then:
# main.tf
terraform {
required_version = ">= 1.6.0"
required_providers {
google = { source = "hashicorp/google", version = "~> 6.10" }
google-beta = { source = "hashicorp/google-beta", version = "~> 6.10" }
}
}
provider "google" { project = "my-gcp-project"; region = "us-central1" }
provider "google-beta" { project = "my-gcp-project"; region = "us-central1" }
module "litellm" {
source = "BerriAI/litellm/google"
version = "~> 1.89"
project_id = "my-gcp-project"
region = "us-central1"
tenant = "acme"
env = "prod"
# Replace my-gcp-project with your GCP project ID (same value as project_id above).
image_registry = "us-central1-docker.pkg.dev/my-gcp-project/litellm/berriai"
# Production: provide DNS already pointing at the LB IP for Google-managed certs.
# Without one, set allow_plaintext_lb = true (dev/trial only).
# lb_domains = ["proxy.example.com"]
allow_plaintext_lb = true
}
output "litellm_url" {
value = module.litellm.load_balancer_url
}
terraform init
terraform apply
Provider API keys live in Secret Manager; reference resource IDs (e.g. projects/my-gcp-project/secrets/openai-api-key) via gateway_extra_secrets. Full input list and architecture diagram on the registry page.
Both stacks include
- The full componentized split (gateway / backend / UI as independent services)
- Managed Postgres (writer + reader) and Redis
- Versioned object store for proxy state + file uploads
- An auto-generated
LITELLM_MASTER_KEYin your cloud's secret manager - A one-off migration job that runs
prisma migrate deploybefore the proxy starts - The same
proxy_configsurface as the Helm chart — pass YAML as a typed map
The Terraform modules live at terraform/litellm/aws/ and terraform/litellm/gcp/ in this repo; the registry entries are read-only mirrors updated on each release.
Run in Developer Mode
Services

Verify Docker Image Signatures
All LiteLLM Docker images published to GHCR are signed with cosign. Every release is signed with the same key introduced in commit 0112e53.
Verify using the pinned commit hash (recommended):
A commit hash is cryptographically immutable, so this is the strongest way to ensure you are using the original signing key:
cosign verify \
--key https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BerriAI/litellm/0112e53046018d726492c814b3644b7d376029d0/cosign.pub \
ghcr.io/berriai/litellm:<release-tag>
Verify using a release tag (convenience):
Tags are protected in this repository and resolve to the same key. This option is easier to read but relies on tag protection rules:
cosign verify \
--key https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BerriAI/litellm/<release-tag>/cosign.pub \
ghcr.io/berriai/litellm:<release-tag>
Replace <release-tag> with the version you are deploying (e.g. v1.83.0-stable).
