* feat(tinyfish): make search provider permissive, attribute errors
Reshapes the TinyFish search provider so LiteLLM mirrors the TinyFish
Search API surface instead of maintaining a parallel cherry-pick.
Request side:
- Drop misleading request TypedDict
- Stop sending max_results on wire (TinyFish ignores it); clamp to [1,10]
client-side via self-threaded state
- Guard non-numeric max_results from bare ValueError
- Auto-JSON-encode dict params; lowercase bool serialization for ux-labs
Response side:
- Drop both Pydantic response models; parse directly into SearchResponse
so per-result extras flow through via extra="allow"
- Default missing title/url/snippet to "" instead of failing the call
- Read top-level parameter_warnings and re-fire as verbose_logger.warning
(pre-wired for upcoming TinyFish-side rollout; no-op today)
Error handling:
- Attributed _wrap_error helper at 3 call sites in transform_search_response
("TinyFish Search: <msg>. See https://docs.tinyfish.ai/search-api for
details.")
- Dispatch non-2xx responses through _wrap_error (fixes pre-existing bug
where 4xx/5xx silently returned empty SearchResponse)
- Wrap json.JSONDecodeError on 200 bodies
- Wrap pydantic.ValidationError for envelope-shape mismatches
Bug fix worth flagging: 4xx/5xx responses now raise an attributed
BaseLLMException instead of silently returning SearchResponse(results=[]).
Follow-up to #30634.
* fix(tinyfish): apply ruff format; guard OverflowError in max_results clamp
- Run ruff format on the touched files (CI lint job rejected the prior
commit's formatting).
- Add OverflowError to the except clause in the max_results clamp so
callers passing math.inf (or other non-finite floats) get the same
warn-and-ignore behavior as other malformed values. Greptile spotted
this in the first-pass review.
- Add test_max_results_infinity_float_warns_and_skips covering the
inf case.
* fix(tinyfish): apply --line-length 88 ruff format to match CI
CI uses 'ruff format --check --line-length 88'; my prior format pass
used the default line length, leaving several lines unwrapped. No
behavior change — purely whitespace.
* fix(tinyfish): reduce transform_search_response complexity; sort imports
CI's ruff strict-rule budget rejected the prior commit with:
- C901: transform_search_response complexity 16 > 10 (cap exceeded by 1)
- I001: import sort violation (cap exceeded by 1)
Extract two module-level helpers from transform_search_response to drop
its cyclomatic complexity:
- _default_missing_result_fields: in-place title/url/snippet defaulting
- _emit_parameter_warnings: defensive parameter_warnings reader
Auto-fix the import sort via ruff --fix.
No behavior change; the 59 existing tests still pass.
* test(tinyfish): cover defensive branches in _default_missing_result_fields
Codecov flagged 97.61% patch coverage (2 lines missing). The uncovered
lines were the non-dict raw_json and non-dict per-result item early-exits
in _default_missing_result_fields. Add two unit tests on the helper
directly to bring patch coverage to 100%.
* chore(tinyfish): apply ruff format to fix lint after staging merge

🚅 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)

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
— opens an in-browser shell, already authenticated to your AWS account. Once inside, run:
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).
