Ishaan Jaff b87d1f8dad [Feat] - Ishaan main merge branch (#23596)
* fix(bedrock): respect s3_region_name for batch file uploads (#23569)

* fix(bedrock): respect s3_region_name for batch file uploads (GovCloud fix)

* fix: s3_region_name always wins over aws_region_name for S3 signing (Greptile feedback)

* fix: _filter_headers_for_aws_signature - Bedrock KB (#23571)

* fix: _filter_headers_for_aws_signature

* fix: filter None header values in all post-signing re-merge paths

Addresses Greptile feedback: None-valued headers were being filtered
during SigV4 signing but re-merged back into the final headers dict
afterward, which would cause downstream HTTP client failures.

Made-with: Cursor

* feat(router): tag_regex routing — route by User-Agent regex without per-developer tag config (#23594)

* feat(router): add tag_regex support for header-based routing

Adds a new `tag_regex` field to litellm_params that lets operators route
requests based on regex patterns matched against request headers — primarily
User-Agent — without requiring per-developer tag configuration.

Use case: route all Claude Code traffic (User-Agent: claude-code/x.y.z) to
a dedicated deployment by setting:

  tag_regex:
    - "^User-Agent: claude-code\\/"

in the deployment's litellm_params. Works alongside existing `tags` routing;
exact tag match takes precedence over regex match. Unmatched requests fall
through to deployments tagged `default`.

The matched deployment, pattern, and user_agent are recorded in
`metadata["tag_routing"]` so they flow through to SpendLogs automatically.

* fix(tag_regex): address backwards-compat, metadata overwrite, and warning noise

Three issues from code review:

1. Backwards-compat: `has_tag_filter` was widened to activate on any non-empty
   User-Agent, which would raise ValueError for existing deployments using plain
   tags without a `default` fallback. Fix: only activate header-based regex
   filtering when at least one candidate deployment has `tag_regex` configured.

2. Metadata overwrite: `metadata["tag_routing"]` was overwritten for every
   matching deployment in the loop, leaving inaccurate provenance when multiple
   deployments match. Fix: write only for the first match.

3. Warning noise: an invalid regex pattern logged one warning per header string
   rather than once per pattern. Fix: compile first (catching re.error once),
   then iterate over header strings.

Also adds two new tests covering these cases, and adds docs page for
tag_regex routing with a Claude Code walk-through.

* refactor(tag_regex): remove unnecessary _healthy_list copy

* docs: merge tag_regex section into tag_routing.md, remove standalone page

- Add ## Regex-based tag routing (tag_regex) section to existing
  tag_routing.md instead of a separate page
- Remove tag_regex_routing.md standalone doc (odd UX to have a separate
  page for a sub-feature)
- Remove proxy/tag_regex_routing from sidebars.js
- Add match_any=False debug warning in tag_based_routing.py when regex
  routing fires under strict mode (regex always uses OR semantics)

* fix(tag_regex): address greptile review - security docs, strict-mode enforcement, validation order

- Strengthen security note in tag_routing.md: explicitly state User-Agent
  is client-supplied and can be set to any value; frame tag_regex as a
  traffic classification hint, not an access-control mechanism
- Move tag_regex startup validation before _add_deployment() so an invalid
  pattern never leaves partial router state
- Enforce match_any=False strict-tag policy: when a deployment has both
  tags and tag_regex and the strict tag check fails, skip the regex fallback
  rather than silently bypassing the operator's intent
- Extract per-deployment match logic into _match_deployment() helper to
  keep get_deployments_for_tag() readable
- Add two new tests: strict-mode blocks regex fallback, regex-only
  deployment still matches under match_any=False

* fix(ci): apply Black formatting to 14 files and stabilize flaky caplog tests

- Run Black formatter on 14 files that were failing the lint check
- Replace caplog-based assertions in TestAliasConflicts with
  unittest.mock.patch on verbose_logger.warning for xdist compatibility
- The caplog fixture can produce empty text in pytest-xdist workers
  in certain CI environments, causing flaky test failures

Contributing

We welcome contributions to LiteLLM! Whether you're fixing bugs, adding features, or improving documentation, we appreciate your help.

Quick Start for Contributors

This requires poetry to be installed.

git clone https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm.git
cd litellm
make install-dev    # Install development dependencies
make format         # Format your code
make lint           # Run all linting checks
make test-unit      # Run unit tests
make format-check   # Check formatting only

For detailed contributing guidelines, see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Code Quality / Linting

LiteLLM follows the Google Python Style Guide.

Our automated checks include:

  • Black for code formatting
  • Ruff for linting and code quality
  • MyPy for type checking
  • Circular import detection
  • Import safety checks

All these checks must pass before your PR can be merged.

Support / talk with founders

Why did we build this

  • Need for simplicity: Our code started to get extremely complicated managing & translating calls between Azure, OpenAI and Cohere.
