* test: add 24hr Redis-backed VCR cache to additional test suites Extracts the existing llm_translation VCR plumbing into a reusable helper (tests/_vcr_conftest_common.py) and wires it into the conftest.py files of the test directories listed in LIT-2787: audio_tests, batches_tests, guardrails_tests, image_gen_tests, litellm_utils_tests, local_testing, logging_callback_tests, pass_through_unit_tests, router_unit_tests, unified_google_tests The same helper is also adopted by the pre-existing llm_translation and llm_responses_api_testing conftests to remove the copy-pasted VCR setup. Each consuming conftest: - registers the Redis persister via pytest_recording_configure - auto-marks collected tests with pytest.mark.vcr (skipping respx-using files where applicable, since respx and vcrpy both patch httpx) - gates cassette writes on test success via _vcr_outcome_gate The cache is opt-in via CASSETTE_REDIS_URL; when unset, VCR is disabled and tests hit live providers as before. LITELLM_VCR_DISABLE=1 still forces a bypass for ad-hoc local runs. Test directories that run LiteLLM proxy in Docker (build_and_test, proxy_logging_guardrails_model_info_tests, proxy_store_model_in_db_tests) are intentionally not included: VCR.py patches the in-process httpx transport and cannot intercept calls made from inside a Docker container. The installing_litellm_on_python* jobs make no LLM calls and don't benefit from caching. https://linear.app/litellm-ai/issue/LIT-2787/add-24hr-caching-to-additional-test-suites * test(vcr): add safe-body matcher to handle JSONL and binary request bodies vcrpy's stock body matcher inspects Content-Type and unconditionally runs json.loads on application/json bodies. JSON Lines payloads (used by the Bedrock batch S3 PUT and other upload paths) crash that with json.JSONDecodeError: Extra data, before the matcher can return 'not a match'. This was the root cause of the batches_testing CI job failing on test_async_create_file once VCR auto-marking was applied to the batches_tests directory. Add a conservative byte-equality body matcher and use it in place of 'body' in the shared match_on tuple. The matcher is strictly more conservative than vcrpy's default — the only thing it gives up is 'different JSON key order is treated as the same body', which doesn't apply to deterministic litellm-built request payloads. It can never produce a false positive that the default would have rejected, so there is no cross-contamination risk. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * test(vcr): exclude tests that VCR replay actively breaks A few tests are incompatible with cassette replay and were failing on the latest CI run after VCR auto-marking was extended to local_testing and logging_callback_tests: - test_amazing_s3_logs.py (logging_callback_tests): the test asserts on a per-run response_id that should round-trip through a real S3 PUT/LIST. vcrpy's boto3 stub intercepts the PUT and the LIST replays stale keys, so the freshly-generated id is never found. - test_async_embedding_azure (logging_callback_tests) and test_amazing_sync_embedding (local_testing): the failure branches deliberately pass api_key='my-bad-key' to assert that the failure callback fires. We scrub auth headers from cassettes (so the bad-key request matches the prior good-key request), and vcrpy replays the recorded 200 — the failure callback never fires. - test_assistants.py (local_testing): the OpenAI Assistants polling APIs mint fresh thread/run IDs every recording session and then poll until status=='completed'. Replays of those polled GETs can never match a freshly-generated run id, so every CI run effectively re-records and the suite blows past the 15m no_output_timeout. Skip these from VCR auto-marking so they continue to hit live providers as they did before this change. The remaining tests in each directory still get cached. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * test(vcr): expand skip lists for second batch of incompatible tests Followup to the previous commit. After re-running CI on the rebuilt branch, three more tests surfaced as VCR-replay-incompatible: - litellm_utils_testing :: test_get_valid_models_from_dynamic_api_key Calls GET /v1/models with api_key='123' to assert the result is empty. We scrub auth headers, so the bad-key request matches the prior good-key cassette and replays the recorded model list. - litellm_utils_testing :: test_litellm_overhead.py Measures litellm_overhead_time_ms as a percentage of total wall-clock time. With cached responses the upstream 'network' time collapses to microseconds, blowing past the 40%% threshold the test asserts on. Skip the whole file (every parametrization is at risk). - local_testing_part1 :: test_async_custom_handler_completion and test_async_custom_handler_embedding Same bad-key failure-callback pattern as the already-skipped test_amazing_sync_embedding. - litellm_router_testing :: test_router_caching.py Asserts on litellm's own router-level response cache by comparing response1.id to response2.id across repeat upstream calls (test bypasses litellm cache via ttl=0 and expects upstream to return a *new* id). With VCR replay both upstream calls return the same cassette body, so the ids are identical. Skip the whole file. - logging_callback_tests :: test_async_chat_azure (preemptive) Same shape as already-skipped test_async_embedding_azure; was masked by upstream OpenAI rate-limit failures on baseline. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * test(vcr): use item.path and tighten matcher docstring - Replace pytest's deprecated item.fspath with item.path in apply_vcr_auto_marker_to_items so we don't emit deprecation warnings under pytest 8. - Clarify _safe_body_matcher docstring to reflect actual behavior (direct == first, then UTF-8 bytes comparison, no repr fallback). Addresses Greptile review feedback on PR #27159. * test(vcr): swallow all RedisError on cassette save/load Cassette persistence is strictly best-effort: any Redis-side failure (connection blip, timeout, OutOfMemoryError when the maxmemory cap is hit, READONLY replicas, etc.) should degrade to 'test passed but cassette not cached' rather than fail the test on teardown. Previously the persister only caught ConnectionError and TimeoutError, so OutOfMemoryError — which Redis Cloud raises when the cassette cache hits its memory cap and there are no evictable keys — propagated out of vcrpy's autouse fixture and ERRORed otherwise-passing tests on teardown. This caused the litellm_utils_testing CircleCI job to fail on the latest commit's run, even though the underlying test was a unit test that used mock_response and produced no real upstream traffic (the cassette was dirtied by a background langfuse callback). The rerun only succeeded because Redis evictions happened to free enough room before the SET — i.e. it was timing-dependent flakiness. Catch redis.exceptions.RedisError (the common base of all server- and client-side Redis exceptions) on both save and load, and parametrize the regression tests across ConnectionError, TimeoutError, and OutOfMemoryError to pin the new behavior. * test(vcr): surface cassette-cache failures with warnings + session banner When the persister silently swallows a Redis OOM (or any RedisError) on save/load there is otherwise no visible signal that the cache is degraded — tests pass, the cassette just isn't persisted, and the next session still hits the same Redis at the same near-cap memory. Add three layers of observability so that failure mode is loud: 1. Per-process health counters ("save_failures", "load_failures", and the last error string for each), exposed via cassette_cache_health() and reset via reset_cassette_cache_health(). The persister increments these in addition to logging. 2. VCRCassetteCacheWarning (UserWarning subclass) emitted via warnings.warn() inside the persister's except block. Pytest's built-in warnings summary at session end automatically lists every such warning, so the failure is visible in CI logs without any conftest-level wiring. 3. Session-end banner via emit_cassette_cache_session_banner() and a stderr-fallback atexit handler registered from register_persister_if_enabled(). Two states: - red "VCR CASSETTE CACHE DEGRADED" when save_failures or load_failures > 0 - yellow "VCR CASSETTE CACHE NEAR CAPACITY" (no failures, but used_memory >= 85% of maxmemory) so the next session knows the Redis is approaching OOM before any SET actually fails Capacity comes from a best-effort INFO memory probe (cassette_cache_capacity_snapshot) that returns None on any failure or when maxmemory is uncapped. The atexit handler skips xdist workers so only the controller emits. Tests: parametrize the existing save/load swallow-error tests across ConnectionError/TimeoutError/OutOfMemoryError, add direct tests for the health counters and warning emission, and a new test_vcr_conftest_common_banner.py covering banner output for every state (silent/red/yellow/disabled/xdist-worker). * test(vcr): bucket cassettes by API key fingerprint, drop bad-key skips Tests that deliberately call an LLM API with a bad key (e.g. to assert that the failure callback fires, or that check_valid_key returns False) were being silently served the prior good-key cassette: we scrub the real Authorization / x-api-key header from the cassette before storing it, so a follow-up bad-key call is byte-identical to the good-key call under the existing match_on tuple. Add a 'key_fingerprint' custom matcher that distinguishes requests by the SHA-256 of their API-key headers. The fingerprint is stamped into a synthetic 'x-litellm-key-fp' header by a new before_record_request hook, which then strips the real auth headers (we have to do the scrubbing here instead of via vcrpy's filter_headers knob, because filter_headers runs *first* and would erase the value we want to hash). Bad-key requests now get a different cassette bucket than good-key requests, so vcrpy will not replay a recorded 200 in place of the expected 401. The fingerprint is a one-way hash of the secret, so cassettes never contain the key. This permanently removes the 'bad-key' category of skips: - tests/local_testing: dropped ::test_amazing_sync_embedding, ::test_async_custom_handler_completion, ::test_async_custom_handler_embedding - tests/logging_callback_tests: dropped ::test_async_chat_azure, ::test_async_embedding_azure - tests/litellm_utils_tests: dropped ::test_get_valid_models_from_dynamic_api_key Coverage: 7 new unit tests in tests/test_litellm/test_vcr_safe_body_matcher.py covering header stripping, fingerprint determinism, no-auth bucketing, good-vs-bad key discrimination, x-api-key (Anthropic/Azure) discrimination, and idempotence under replay. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * test(vcr): drop redundant comments and docstrings Trim narration of code that is already self-evident from function and variable names. Keep the two genuinely non-obvious bits: - ordering constraint between filter_headers and before_record_request, which would invite a maintainer to re-introduce the bug if removed - the per-directory _VCR_INCOMPATIBLE_FILES rationale, since 'why exactly is this skipped' is not knowable from the test name alone Also drop the 40-line commented-out drop-in conftest snippet at the bottom of _vcr_conftest_common.py — the consuming conftests are the canonical reference. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * test(vcr): make _before_record_request idempotent vcrpy invokes before_record_request more than once per request: can_play_response_for calls it, then __contains__ / _responses (reached via play_response) call it again on the result. The second invocation sees a request whose auth headers we already stripped, so a naive recompute yields "no-key" and overwrites the real fingerprint stored in the header. This makes can_play_response_for and play_response disagree on matchability — the former says "yes, we have a stored response for this" (matching no-key to no-key) and the latter throws UnhandledHTTPRequestError because it computes a fresh real fingerprint that doesn't match the stored no-key. In CI this manifested as ~30 failing tests across guardrails_testing, audio_testing, batches_testing, image_gen_testing, llm_responses_api, litellm_router_unit_testing, etc. Skip the recompute when the header is already set, so re-applying the hook is a no-op. Adds a regression test that fires the hook twice on the same dict and asserts the fingerprint stays put. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * test(vcr): drop more redundant docstrings and headers * test(vcr): enable 24hr cache for ocr_tests and search_tests These two directories were the only non-dockerized test suites in the build_and_test workflow that make live LLM/provider API calls but were not VCR-enabled by this PR. Together they account for 96 tests: - tests/ocr_tests/ (31): Mistral OCR, Azure AI OCR, Azure Document Intelligence, Vertex AI OCR. Pure-unit tests inside the same files (e.g. TestAzureDocumentIntelligencePagesParam) make no HTTP calls and become benign VCR NOOPs. - tests/search_tests/ (65): Brave, DataForSEO, DuckDuckGo, Exa, Firecrawl, Google PSE, Linkup, Parallel.ai, Perplexity, SearchAPI, Searxng, Serper, Tavily. Both directories use the canonical minimal conftest pattern from tests/audio_tests/conftest.py with no skip lists. None of the test files use respx, none assert on per-call upstream non-determinism (no response1.id != response2.id, no overhead-as-fraction-of-total, no live polling), so the default match_on tuple should cache cleanly. If a flake surfaces during the first cassette-recording CI run, we can add a targeted skip the same way we did for the other dirs.

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).
