* Add OAuth M2M support for A2A agents targeting Databricks Apps Databricks App endpoints reject static bearer tokens and require a short-lived OAuth token minted via the workspace OIDC token endpoint. A2A agents could previously only authenticate outbound with static_headers or client header passthrough, so Databricks App agents could not be registered. Agents configured with a databricks_oauth block in litellm_params now mint and cache a client_credentials token and attach it as the outbound Authorization header on both message/send and message/stream calls, overriding any statically configured Authorization. * Add tests covering Databricks App OAuth token error paths Cover the HTTP status error, transport error, non-object JSON body, and invalid expires_in fallback branches in the token cache so the failure handling is locked in by regression tests. * Harden Databricks App OAuth token cache Cap the cache TTL at the token's own lifetime so a token whose validity is shorter than the refresh buffer is never cached and served stale; include a digest of client_secret in the cache key so a rotated secret mints a fresh token instead of reusing the old one; and prune the per-key lock when its cached token is evicted so the lock map stays bounded by the live key set. * Clear per-key locks on Databricks OAuth cache flush * fix(a2a/databricks): mint OAuth token via Basic auth header, not unsupported auth= kwarg litellm's AsyncHTTPHandler.post (what get_async_httpx_client returns) has no auth parameter, so minting a Databricks App OAuth token raised "AsyncHTTPHandler.post() got an unexpected keyword argument 'auth'" before any network call ever left the proxy, breaking the feature end to end. The handler also calls raise_for_status() internally and re-raises a MaskedHTTPStatusError (a subclass of httpx.HTTPStatusError), so the explicit raise_for_status() after post() was dead code. Build the HTTP Basic Authorization header by hand and pass it via headers, which is what the Databricks workspace OIDC token endpoint documents for client authentication. The token-cache tests now model the real handler contract with create_autospec so the rejected auth= signature is enforced; the previous mocks accepted any kwargs and silently hid the bug. Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com> * Prune Databricks OAuth lock on the short-lived-token path When expires_in is below the refresh buffer the token is intentionally not cached, so _remove_key never runs for that key and the per-key lock created by _get_lock leaked permanently. Drop the lock in that branch so _locks stays bounded by the live key set, and assert the cleanup in the short-lived-token test * Gate A2A Databricks OAuth on the databricks_oauth block at the call site Make the gating explicit where the header is applied so it is clear that only agents configured with a databricks_oauth block enter the OAuth path; every other agent is left untouched. Add a regression test asserting a non-Databricks agent never invokes the token resolver. --------- Co-authored-by: Cursor Agent <cursoragent@cursor.com> Co-authored-by: Mateo Wang <mateo-berri@users.noreply.github.com>
🚅 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

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).
