+# Build & Publish `litellm-proxy-extras`
+
+This runbook covers building and publishing a new version of the `litellm-proxy-extras` PyPI package. For use by litellm engineers only.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- All `schema.prisma` files are in sync (see [migration_runbook.md](./migration_runbook.md) Step 0)
+- Migration has been generated and committed
+- You are in the `litellm-proxy-extras/` directory
+
+## Step 1: Bump the Version
+
+Update the version in `pyproject.toml`:
+
+```bash
+cd litellm-proxy-extras
+
+# Check current version
+grep 'version' pyproject.toml
+```
+
+Edit `pyproject.toml` and bump the version (both `[tool.poetry].version` and `[tool.commitizen].version`).
+
+## Step 2: Install Build Dependencies
+
+```bash
+pip install build twine
+```
+
+## Step 3: Clean Old Artifacts
+
+```bash
+rm -rf dist/ build/ *.egg-info
+```
+
+## Step 4: Build the Package
+
+```bash
+python3 -m build
+```
+
+This creates `.tar.gz` and `.whl` files in the `dist/` directory.
+
+Verify the build output:
+
+```bash
+ls -la dist/
+```
+
+## Step 5: Upload to PyPI
+
+```bash
+twine upload dist/*
+```
+
+You will be prompted for your PyPI API token:
+
+```
+Enter your API token: pypi-...
+```
+
+> Use `__token__` as the username and your PyPI API token as the password.
+
+## Quick Reference (Copy-Paste)
+
+```bash
+cd litellm-proxy-extras
+rm -rf dist/ build/ *.egg-info
+python3 -m build
+twine upload dist/*
+```
+
+---
+
+## Do you want to build and publish a new `litellm-proxy-extras` package? (y/n)
+
+If **yes**, run the following commands in order:
+
+```bash
+cd litellm-proxy-extras
+pip install build twine
+rm -rf dist/ build/ *.egg-info
+python3 -m build
+twine upload dist/*
+```
+
+When `twine upload` runs, enter your PyPI credentials:
+- **Username:** `__token__`
+- **Password:** *(paste your PyPI API key)*
+
+If **no**, you're done — no package publish needed.

 This is a runbook for creating and running database migrations for the LiteLLM proxy. For use for litellm engineers only.
 
-## Quick Start
+## Step 0: Sync All `schema.prisma` Files
+
+Before doing anything else, make sure all `schema.prisma` files in the repo are in sync. There are multiple copies that must match:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `schema.prisma` (repo root) | Source of truth |
+| `litellm/proxy/schema.prisma` | Used by the proxy server |
+| `litellm-proxy-extras/litellm_proxy_extras/schema.prisma` | Used for migration generation |
+
+**Sync process:**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Diff all schema files against the root source of truth
+diff schema.prisma litellm/proxy/schema.prisma
+diff schema.prisma litellm-proxy-extras/litellm_proxy_extras/schema.prisma
+
+# 2. If there are differences, copy the root schema to all locations
+cp schema.prisma litellm/proxy/schema.prisma
+cp schema.prisma litellm-proxy-extras/litellm_proxy_extras/schema.prisma
+
+# 3. Verify all files are now identical
+diff schema.prisma litellm/proxy/schema.prisma && echo "proxy schema in sync" || echo "MISMATCH"
+diff schema.prisma litellm-proxy-extras/litellm_proxy_extras/schema.prisma && echo "extras schema in sync" || echo "MISMATCH"
+```
+
+> **Do NOT proceed to migration generation until all schema files are identical.**
+
+## Step 1: Quick Start — Generate Migration
 
 ```bash
 # Install deps (one time)

 ## Rules
 
-- Update `schema.prisma` first
+- Sync all `schema.prisma` files first (Step 0)
+- Update `schema.prisma` at the repo root first, then sync copies
 - Review generated SQL before committing
 - Use descriptive migration names
 - Never edit existing migration files
 - Commit schema + migration together
+

+
+**Done with migration?** See [build_and_publish.md](./build_and_publish.md) to publish a new `litellm-proxy-extras` package.
