* ci(ui): add frontend-lint job enforcing prettier and eslint on changed files
Lints only the files a PR adds or modifies under ui/litellm-dashboard,
so new and touched code must be prettier-clean and eslint-clean while the
existing tree is grandfathered. Skips cleanly when a PR touches no
lintable UI files. This lets us adopt the formatters incrementally
without a repo-wide reformat
* ci(ui): write frontend-lint file lists to $RUNNER_TEMP
Keep the prettier/eslint changed-file lists out of the checkout dir so
they cannot collide with a future source file of the same name
* lint(ui): baseline existing eslint findings so only new ones block
Capture the current error-level eslint findings (318 across 183 files)
in a committed suppressions baseline via eslint --suppress-all. Every
rule stays at its error severity, so any newly introduced violation
fails the frontend-lint gate, while the existing tree is grandfathered;
touching a legacy file never forces fixing its pre-existing issues. CI
runs eslint with --pass-on-unpruned-suppressions so that fixing a
baselined issue does not fail on a now-stale suppression, and the
generated baseline is prettier-ignored since eslint owns its format.
Burn the baseline down over time with eslint --prune-suppressions
* lint(ui): enforce a count budget for explicit any
Make @typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any a warning and cap the total
instead of hard-blocking each new one. A frontend-lint step counts the
repo-wide explicit any and fails only when it exceeds the committed
budget in eslint-any-budget.json. max starts at 2031, ten above the
current 2021, so the next ten land as warnings and the build fails once
that headroom is gone. Lower max over time toward target to ratchet the
count down. New anys still surface as warnings on changed files via the
normal eslint step
* lint(ui): enable zero-cost rules no-var, no-self-assign, react/no-danger
These have no existing violations, so they need no baseline; turning them
on purely blocks new instances. react/no-danger guards against new
dangerouslySetInnerHTML (XSS), no-var enforces let/const, and
no-self-assign catches self-assignment typos. no-debugger is already
enforced by the recommended preset
* lint(ui): add baselined complexity rules
Enable complexity:20, max-depth:4, max-params:4, max-nested-callbacks:4,
with thresholds set near the codebase p99 so only genuine outliers are
flagged. The 272 existing over-threshold functions are grandfathered in
the suppressions baseline; new over-threshold functions block. Lower the
thresholds over time to ratchet complexity down. max-lines-per-function
is intentionally left off since React components are legitimately long
* lint(ui): ban new raw fetch, standardize on React Query
Add a no-restricted-syntax rule flagging bare fetch() calls, pointing
contributors at React Query (@tanstack/react-query). The rule is not
exempted anywhere, including the already-bloated networking.tsx, so all
331 existing fetch calls are grandfathered but no new ones can be added
there or elsewhere. New data access goes through React Query, and the
networking layer can be migrated out and pruned from the baseline over
time
* lint(ui): ban new @tremor/react imports
Add a no-restricted-imports rule flagging imports from @tremor/react so
tremor is phased out rather than spread further. The 232 existing tremor
imports are grandfathered in the baseline; new ones block and point at
antd. Migrate components off tremor and prune the baseline over time
* lint(ui): widen explicit-any budget headroom to 2040
Raise max from 2031 to 2040, giving ~19 of slack over the current 2021
instead of 10
* style(ui): prettier-format eslint.config.mjs
The frontend-lint gate flagged its own config file. Format it so the
prettier check on this PR's changed files passes
* lint(ui): soften complexity and max-depth to warnings
These two are smell metrics with arbitrary thresholds where a legit new
function can trip them, so make them advisory rather than hard-blocking.
They drop out of the baseline (now 963). max-params, max-nested-callbacks,
and the react-hooks rules stay strict since those are clear-cut
* lint(ui): move complexity and max-depth to the count-budget pattern
Generalize the explicit-any budget into a shared lint-budget mechanism:
eslint-budgets.json maps a rule to {max, target} and check-lint-budgets.mjs
counts each across the repo and fails when a count exceeds its max.
complexity (129, max 140) and max-depth (61, max 70) now use the same
slack-plus-counter model as explicit-any (2021, max 2040): they warn
per-file and the build only fails if the repo-wide total crosses the
ceiling. Lower each max toward its target over time
* docs(ui): note pruning the eslint suppressions baseline when fixing lint debt

🚅 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).
