* feat(ci): catch files a -k expression deselects from every job The coverage census asks whether some job names a file. It cannot ask what that job's -k then does with it, and the gap is not hypothetical: tests/local_testing is globbed by five jobs, two of which carry -k "... and not router and not assistants and not langfuse and not caching and not cache" while the other three keep one keyword each. Any file whose path holds an excluded term is dropped by the first two and matched by none of the rest, so it runs nowhere while the census counts it as covered. 118 tests across eight caching files sit in exactly that hole today. The new mode reads the same CircleCI jobs the census already parses and asks whether each globbed file survives its job's selector. Two facts about -k make that decidable without running pytest: it matches an item's own name and its parents', so a term appearing in the module path deselects the whole file; and the names it can match are otherwise the classes and functions in the file, which ast reads. A positive term is therefore satisfied by the path or by a name inside, which is what keeps a langfuse-named test inside test_logging.py from being reported. Where the parser is unsure it stays quiet. An expression with or, parentheses, or a negated group is left unmodelled and its job is treated as claiming everything it globs, so an unparsed selector can never raise a false alarm. Glob translation learned character classes, without which tests/local_testing/**/test_[a-mA-M]*.py matches nothing and the guard would report that whole directory. The census and shard counts are unchanged by it, 2423 files and 327 shard children before and after. Validated against the real thing: collecting tests/local_testing under each job's own selector leaves 175 of 1577 tests unselected, in exactly the ten files this check derives statically, no more and no fewer. Two of the ten are named outright by other jobs, which the check credits, leaving the eight now recorded in the allowlist as a decision rather than an accident. Verified red-first: dropping one of those eight from the allowlist reports it, and adding 'and not embedding' to the two part jobs reports test_embedding.py and test_get_optional_params_embeddings.py. * fix(ci): keep the slice guard from pairing one command's -k with another's glob Two accuracy notes from review, both about the parser's model rather than its current verdicts. A job that runs several pytest commands offers no way to tell which glob a -k belongs to, since both are read out of the same flattened job text. Combining them could pair one command's exclusion with another command's glob and report a file that in fact runs. Such a job is now left unmodelled, which means it claims everything it globs, matching how the parser already treats an expression it cannot read. Only one job in the config has two globs today and it carries no -k at all, so no verdict changes. The second is a deliberate limit, now stated where it lives: an excluded term is only honoured when it sits in the module path, because that is the case that takes the whole file with it. A term matching one function inside drops that test and leaves the file running, and reporting it would be a false alarm. Answering per-test instead would need a baseline of test ids that churns on every rename, for a smaller failure than a file going dark. Both are pinned by 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)

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.

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).
