* feat(lasso): extend LassoGuardrail to support tool calling (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): PR review followups for tool-calling guardrail (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): handle object-style tool_calls in _update_tool_calls_from_masked (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): use model role for tool_use blocks (RND-5748)
* test(lasso): add round-trip tests for message transformation (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): remove unused imports, handle Responses-API input masking, flatten multimodal content (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): inspect Responses-API input field (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): guard text-cursor remap against Lasso count mismatch (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): flatten list content in tool_result.content (RND-5748)
* fix(lasso): remap multimodal list content during masking (RND-5748)
Bug: _map_masked_messages_back counted list-content messages in
original_text_count but the remap loop only handled isinstance(str).
The positional text_cursor never advanced for list messages, causing
all subsequent masked texts to be written onto the wrong messages.
Fix: added elif isinstance(content, list) branch that replaces the
list with the masked text string and advances the cursor — mirrors
the existing string-content branch. Also handles the assistant +
tool_calls combo for list-content messages.
Test: test_map_masked_messages_back_list_content verifies a user
message with [text + image_url] followed by an assistant message
gets correct masked content on both (cursor stays aligned).
* refactor(lasso): extract _get_field and _extract_tool_call_fields helpers (RND-5748)
The dict-vs-object access pattern (x.get('y') if isinstance(x, dict)
else getattr(x, 'y', None)) was duplicated 14 times across 5 methods.
_get_field(obj, field) — single-point dict/Pydantic field access.
_extract_tool_call_fields(call) — returns (call_id, name, parsed_input)
with JSON argument parsing, replacing ~30 duplicate lines in both
async_post_call_success_hook and _expand_messages_for_classification.
Also simplified _update_tool_calls_from_masked, _prepare_payload tool
mapping, and _apply_masking_to_model_response call_id extraction.
Net ~60 lines removed. No behavior change — all 32 tests pass.
* fix(lasso): add count guard to _apply_masking_to_model_response (RND-5748)
_apply_masking_to_model_response used a bare text_cursor without
verifying 1:1 correspondence between text-bearing choices and masked
text entries. If Lasso returned a different number of text messages
than choices with content, masked text would be applied to the wrong
choice or silently skip choices.
Added the same count-mismatch guard pattern already used in
_map_masked_messages_back: count original text-bearing choices,
compare to masked_text length, skip text remap on mismatch with a
warning log. Tool_call masking via id-based lookup is unaffected.
Tests:
- test_apply_masking_to_model_response_multiple_choices: verifies
correct per-choice masked text with 2 choices
- test_apply_masking_to_model_response_count_mismatch: verifies
content is left unchanged when counts disagree
* fix(lasso): close two guardrail-bypass paths flagged in review (RND-5748)
* tool-call args: when function.arguments is malformed JSON or parses
to a non-object, preserve the raw string as {"arguments": <raw>} so
Lasso still inspects it instead of receiving input=None. Covers both
pre-call and post-call extraction (shared helper). Also resolves the
CodeQL empty-except warning since the except body now assigns parsed=None.
* Responses-API input: when a request carries both "messages" and
"input", inspect both. Previously a benign messages array let the
guardrail skip data["input"] entirely. The masking write-back is
split via a count boundary so masked messages flow back to
data["messages"] and masked input flows back to data["input"]
without cross-contamination.
Tests: malformed/non-object args round-trip, dual-field classification,
dual-field masking write-back split.
* chore(lasso): black formatting + comment on expand skip branch (RND-5748)
* black: wrap two long expressions in lasso.py and reformat dict
literals in test_lasso.py to satisfy CI lint.
* add a short comment in _expand_messages_for_classification
explaining why empty string and None content are intentionally
skipped (None is the OpenAI shape for a pure tool-call turn).
* fix(lasso): satisfy mypy in _handle_masking, _update_tool_calls_from_masked, _apply_masking_to_model_response (RND-5748)
* Narrow `response.get("messages")` into a local before slicing so
mypy doesn't see `Optional[List[Dict[str, str]]]` as non-indexable.
* Rename the two write-side `func` bindings in
`_update_tool_calls_from_masked` to `func_dict` / `func_obj` so
mypy doesn't unify the dict and Any|None branches.
* Rename the inner loop variable in `_apply_masking_to_model_response`
from `msg` to `masked_msg` to avoid clashing with the
`msg = choice.message` rebinding below.
No behavior change; resolves the 7 mypy errors from the CI lint job.
🚅 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)

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).
