Quick Start

import asyncio
from livellm import LivellmClient
from livellm.models import Settings, ProviderKind, TextMessage, MessageRole

async def main():
    # Initialize with automatic provider setup
    async with LivellmClient(
        base_url="http://localhost:8000",
        configs=[
            Settings(
                uid="openai",
                provider=ProviderKind.OPENAI,
                api_key="your-api-key"
            )
        ]
    ) as client:
        # Simple keyword arguments style (gen_config as kwargs)
        response = await client.agent_run(
            provider_uid="openai",
            model="gpt-4",
            messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Hello!")],
            temperature=0.7
        )
        print(response.output)

asyncio.run(main())

Configuration

Client Initialization

from livellm import LivellmClient
from livellm.models import Settings, ProviderKind

# Basic
client = LivellmClient(base_url="http://localhost:8000")

# With default timeout and pre-configured providers
client = LivellmClient(
    base_url="http://localhost:8000",
    timeout=30.0,  # Default timeout for all requests
    configs=[
        Settings(
            uid="openai",
            provider=ProviderKind.OPENAI,
            api_key="sk-...",
            base_url="https://api.openai.com/v1"  # Optional
        ),
        Settings(
            uid="anthropic",
            provider=ProviderKind.ANTHROPIC,
            api_key="sk-ant-...",
            blacklist_models=["claude-instant-1"]  # Optional
        )
    ]
)

Per-Request Timeout Override

The timeout provided in __init__ is the default, but you can override it for individual requests:

# Client with 30s default timeout
client = LivellmClient(base_url="http://localhost:8000", timeout=30.0)

# Uses default 30s timeout
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Hello")]
)

# Override with 120s timeout for this specific request
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Write a long essay...")],
    timeout=120.0  # Override for this request only
)

# Works with streaming too
async for chunk in client.agent_run_stream(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Tell me a story")],
    timeout=300.0  # 5 minutes for streaming
):
    print(chunk.output, end="")

# Works with all methods: speak(), speak_stream(), transcribe(), etc.
audio = await client.speak(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="tts-1",
    text="Hello world",
    voice="alloy",
    mime_type=SpeakMimeType.MP3,
    sample_rate=24000,
    timeout=60.0
)

Supported Providers

OPENAI • GOOGLE • ANTHROPIC • GROQ • ELEVENLABS

# Add provider dynamically
await client.update_config(Settings(
    uid="my-provider",
    provider=ProviderKind.OPENAI,
    api_key="your-api-key"
))

# List and delete
configs = await client.get_configs()
await client.delete_config("my-provider")

Usage Examples

Agent Services

Two Ways to Call Methods

All methods support two calling styles:

Style 1: Keyword arguments (kwargs become gen_config)

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Hello!")],
    temperature=0.7,
    max_tokens=500
)

Style 2: Request objects

from livellm.models import AgentRequest

response = await client.agent_run(
    AgentRequest(
        provider_uid="openai",
        model="gpt-4",
        messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Hello!")],
        gen_config={"temperature": 0.7, "max_tokens": 500}
    )
)

Basic Agent Run

from livellm.models import TextMessage

# Using kwargs (recommended for simplicity)
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[
        TextMessage(role="system", content="You are helpful."),
        TextMessage(role="user", content="Explain quantum computing")
    ],
    temperature=0.7,
    max_tokens=500
)
print(f"Output: {response.output}")
print(f"Tokens: {response.usage.input_tokens} in, {response.usage.output_tokens} out")

Streaming Agent Response

# Streaming also supports both styles
stream = client.agent_run_stream(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Tell me a story")],
    temperature=0.8
)

async for chunk in stream:
    print(chunk.output, end="", flush=True)

Agent with Vision (Binary Messages)

import base64
from livellm.models import BinaryMessage

with open("image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    image_data = base64.b64encode(f.read()).decode("utf-8")

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4-vision",
    messages=[
        BinaryMessage(
            role="user",
            content=image_data,
            mime_type="image/jpeg",
            caption="What's in this image?"
        )
    ]
)

Agent with Tools

from livellm.models import WebSearchInput, MCPStreamableServerInput, ToolKind

# Web search tool
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Latest AI news?")],
    tools=[WebSearchInput(
        kind=ToolKind.WEB_SEARCH,
        search_context_size="high"  # low, medium, or high
    )]
)

# MCP server tool
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Run custom tool")],
    tools=[MCPStreamableServerInput(
        kind=ToolKind.MCP_STREAMABLE_SERVER,
        url="http://mcp-server:8080",
        prefix="mcp_",
        timeout=15
    )]
)

Agent with Conversation History

You can request the full conversation history (including tool calls and returns) by setting include_history=True:

from livellm.models import TextMessage, ToolCallMessage, ToolReturnMessage

# Request with history enabled
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Search for latest AI news")],
    tools=[WebSearchInput(kind=ToolKind.WEB_SEARCH)],
    include_history=True  # Enable history in response
)

print(f"Output: {response.output}")

# Access full conversation history including tool interactions
if response.history:
    for msg in response.history:
        if isinstance(msg, TextMessage):
            print(f"{msg.role}: {msg.content}")
        elif isinstance(msg, ToolCallMessage):
            print(f"Tool Call: {msg.tool_name}({msg.args})")
        elif isinstance(msg, ToolReturnMessage):
            print(f"Tool Return from {msg.tool_name}: {msg.content}")

History Message Types:

• TextMessage - Regular text messages (user, model, system)
• BinaryMessage - Images or other binary content
• ToolCallMessage - Tool invocations made by the agent
  • tool_name - Name of the tool called
  • args - Arguments passed to the tool
• ToolReturnMessage - Results returned from tool calls
  • tool_name - Name of the tool that was called
  • content - The return value from the tool

Use cases:

• Debugging tool interactions
• Maintaining conversation state across multiple requests
• Auditing and logging complete conversations
• Building conversational UIs with full context visibility

Agent with Structured Output

Get structured JSON responses from the agent by providing an output schema. The agent will return a JSON string matching your schema in the output field.

Three ways to define a schema:

1. Using Pydantic BaseModel (Recommended)

import json
from pydantic import BaseModel
from livellm.models import TextMessage

class Person(BaseModel):
    name: str
    age: int
    occupation: str

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Extract info: John is a 28-year-old engineer")],
    output_schema=Person  # Pass the BaseModel class directly
)

# response.output is a JSON string: '{"name": "John", "age": 28, "occupation": "engineer"}'
print(type(response.output))  # <class 'str'>

# Parse the JSON string yourself if needed
data = json.loads(response.output)
print(f"Name: {data['name']}")
print(f"Age: {data['age']}")
print(f"Occupation: {data['occupation']}")

# Or validate with your Pydantic model
person = Person.model_validate_json(response.output)
print(f"Name: {person.name}")

2. Using OutputSchema

from livellm.models import OutputSchema, PropertyDef, TextMessage

schema = OutputSchema(
    title="Person",
    description="A person's information",
    properties={
        "name": PropertyDef(type="string", description="The person's name"),
        "age": PropertyDef(type="integer", minimum=0, maximum=150, description="Age in years"),
        "email": PropertyDef(type="string", pattern="^[^@]+@[^@]+\\.[^@]+$", description="Email address"),
    },
    required=["name", "age", "email"]
)

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Tell me about a person")],
    output_schema=schema
)

3. Using a dictionary (JSON Schema)

schema_dict = {
    "title": "Person",
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "name": {"type": "string", "description": "The person's name"},
        "age": {"type": "integer", "minimum": 0, "maximum": 150},
        "email": {"type": "string", "pattern": "^[^@]+@[^@]+\\.[^@]+$"}
    },
    "required": ["name", "age", "email"]
}

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Extract person info")],
    output_schema=schema_dict
)

Complex nested schemas:

from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import List, Optional

class Address(BaseModel):
    street: str
    city: str
    zip_code: str

class Person(BaseModel):
    name: str
    age: int
    addresses: List[Address]
    phone: Optional[str] = None

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Extract person with addresses")],
    output_schema=Person  # Nested models are automatically resolved
)

With streaming:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class Summary(BaseModel):
    title: str
    key_points: List[str]
    word_count: int

stream = client.agent_run_stream(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Summarize this article")],
    output_schema=Summary
)

async for chunk in stream:
    print(chunk.output, end="", flush=True)

# After streaming completes, parse the full JSON output
full_output = "".join([chunk.output async for chunk in stream])
data = json.loads(full_output)

Response fields:

• output - The JSON string response matching your schema

Use cases:

• Data extraction and parsing
• API response formatting
• Structured data generation
• Type-safe responses
• Integration with type-checked code

Context Overflow Management

Handle large texts that exceed model context windows with automatic truncation or iterative processing:

from livellm.models import TextMessage, ContextOverflowStrategy, OutputSchema, PropertyDef

# TRUNCATE strategy (default): Preserves beginning, middle, and end
# Works with both streaming and non-streaming
response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[
        TextMessage(role="system", content="Summarize the document."),
        TextMessage(role="user", content=very_long_document)
    ],
    context_limit=4000,  # Max tokens
    context_overflow_strategy=ContextOverflowStrategy.TRUNCATE
)

# RECYCLE strategy: Iteratively processes chunks and merges results
# Useful for extraction tasks - processes entire document
# Requires output_schema for JSON merging
output_schema = OutputSchema(
    title="ExtractedInfo",
    properties={
        "topics": PropertyDef(type="array", items={"type": "string"}),
        "key_figures": PropertyDef(type="array", items={"type": "string"})
    },
    required=["topics", "key_figures"]
)

response = await client.agent_run(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[
        TextMessage(role="system", content="Extract all topics and key figures."),
        TextMessage(role="user", content=very_long_document)
    ],
    context_limit=3000,
    context_overflow_strategy=ContextOverflowStrategy.RECYCLE,
    output_schema=output_schema
)

# Parse the merged results
import json
result = json.loads(response.output)
print(f"Topics: {result['topics']}")
print(f"Key figures: {result['key_figures']}")

Strategy comparison:

Strategy	How it works	Best for	Streaming
TRUNCATE	Takes beginning, middle, end portions	Summarization, Q&A	✅ Yes
RECYCLE	Processes chunks iteratively, merges JSON	Full document extraction	❌ No

Parameters:

• context_limit (int, default: 0) - Maximum tokens. If ≤ 0, overflow handling is disabled
• context_overflow_strategy (ContextOverflowStrategy, default: TRUNCATE) - Strategy to use

Notes:

• System prompts are always preserved (never truncated)
• Token counting includes a 20% safety buffer
• RECYCLE requires output_schema for JSON merging

Audio Services

Text-to-Speech

from livellm.models import SpeakMimeType

# Non-streaming
audio = await client.speak(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="tts-1",
    text="Hello, world!",
    voice="alloy",
    mime_type=SpeakMimeType.MP3,
    sample_rate=24000,
    speed=1.0  # kwargs become gen_config
)
with open("output.mp3", "wb") as f:
    f.write(audio)

# Streaming
audio = bytes()
async for chunk in client.speak_stream(
    provider_uid="openai",
    model="tts-1",
    text="Hello, world!",
    voice="alloy",
    mime_type=SpeakMimeType.PCM,
    sample_rate=24000
):
    audio += chunk

# Save PCM as WAV
import wave
with wave.open("output.wav", "wb") as wf:
    wf.setnchannels(1)
    wf.setsampwidth(2)
    wf.setframerate(24000)
    wf.writeframes(audio)

Transcription

# Method 1: Multipart upload (kwargs style)
with open("audio.wav", "rb") as f:
    audio_bytes = f.read()

transcription = await client.transcribe(
    provider_uid="openai",
    file=("audio.wav", audio_bytes, "audio/wav"),
    model="whisper-1",
    language="en",  # Optional
    temperature=0.0  # kwargs become gen_config
)
print(f"Text: {transcription.text}")
print(f"Language: {transcription.language}")

# Method 2: JSON request object (base64-encoded)
import base64
from livellm.models import TranscribeRequest

audio_b64 = base64.b64encode(audio_bytes).decode("utf-8")
transcription = await client.transcribe(
    TranscribeRequest(
        provider_uid="openai",
        file=("audio.wav", audio_b64, "audio/wav"),
        model="whisper-1"
    )
)

Real-Time Transcription (WebSocket)

The realtime transcription API is available either directly via TranscriptionWsClient or through LivellmClient.realtime.transcription.

Using TranscriptionWsClient directly

import asyncio
from livellm import TranscriptionWsClient
from livellm.models import (
    TranscriptionInitWsRequest,
    TranscriptionAudioChunkWsRequest,
    SpeakMimeType,
)

async def transcribe_live_direct():
    base_url = "ws://localhost:8000"  # WebSocket base URL

    async with TranscriptionWsClient(base_url, timeout=30) as client:
        # Define audio source (file, microphone, stream, etc.)
        async def audio_source():
            with open("audio.pcm", "rb") as f:
                while chunk := f.read(4096):
                    yield TranscriptionAudioChunkWsRequest(audio=chunk)
                    await asyncio.sleep(0.1)  # Simulate real-time

        # Initialize transcription session
        init_request = TranscriptionInitWsRequest(
            provider_uid="openai",
            model="gpt-4o-mini-transcribe",
            language="en",  # or "auto" for detection
            input_sample_rate=24000,
            input_audio_format=SpeakMimeType.PCM,
            gen_config={},
        )

        # Stream audio and receive transcriptions
        # Each iteration yields a list of responses (oldest to newest)
        async for responses in client.start_session(init_request, audio_source()):
            # Get the latest transcription (last element)
            latest = responses[-1]
            print(f"Latest transcription: {latest.transcription}")
            
            # Process all accumulated transcriptions if needed
            if len(responses) > 1:
                print(f"  (received {len(responses)} chunks)")
                for resp in responses:
                    print(f"    - {resp.transcription}")

asyncio.run(transcribe_live_direct())

Using LivellmClient.realtime.transcription (and running agents while listening)

import asyncio

                gen_config={},
            )

            # Listen for transcriptions and, for each batch, run an agent request
            # Each iteration yields a list of responses - newest is last
            async for responses in t_client.start_session(init_request, audio_source()):

                latest = responses[-1]
                print("User said:", latest.transcription)

                # You can call agent_run (or speak, etc.) while the transcription stream is active
                # Even if this is slow, transcriptions accumulate and won't stall the loop
                agent_response = await realtime.agent_run(

Fallback Strategies

Handle failures automatically with sequential or parallel fallback:

from livellm.models import AgentRequest, AgentFallbackRequest, FallbackStrategy, TextMessage

messages = [TextMessage(role="user", content="Hello!")]

# Sequential: try each in order until one succeeds
response = await client.agent_run(
    AgentFallbackRequest(
        strategy=FallbackStrategy.SEQUENTIAL,
        requests=[
            AgentRequest(provider_uid="primary", model="gpt-4", messages=messages, tools=[]),
            AgentRequest(provider_uid="backup", model="claude-3", messages=messages, tools=[])
        ],
        timeout_per_request=30
    )
)

# Parallel: try all simultaneously, use first success
response = await client.agent_run(
    AgentFallbackRequest(
        strategy=FallbackStrategy.PARALLEL,
        requests=[
            AgentRequest(provider_uid="p1", model="gpt-4", messages=messages, tools=[]),
            AgentRequest(provider_uid="p2", model="claude-3", messages=messages, tools=[]),
            AgentRequest(provider_uid="p3", model="gemini-pro", messages=messages, tools=[])
        ],
        timeout_per_request=10
    )
)

# Also works for audio
from livellm.models import AudioFallbackRequest, SpeakRequest

audio = await client.speak(
    AudioFallbackRequest(
        strategy=FallbackStrategy.SEQUENTIAL,

Resource Management

Recommended: Use context managers for automatic cleanup.

# ✅ Best: Context manager (auto cleanup)
async with LivellmClient(base_url="http://localhost:8000") as client:
    response = await client.ping()
# Configs deleted, connection closed automatically

# ✅ Good: Manual cleanup
client = LivellmClient(base_url="http://localhost:8000")
try:
    response = await client.ping()
finally:
    await client.cleanup()

# ⚠️ OK: Garbage collection (shows warning if configs exist)
client = LivellmClient(base_url="http://localhost:8000")
response = await client.ping()
# Cleaned up when object is destroyed

API Reference

Client Methods

All methods accept an optional timeout parameter to override the default client timeout.

Configuration

• ping(timeout?) - Health check
• update_config(config, timeout?) / update_configs(configs, timeout?) - Add/update providers
• get_configs(timeout?) - List all configurations
• delete_config(uid, timeout?) - Remove provider

Agent

• agent_run(request | **kwargs, timeout?) - Run agent (blocking)
• agent_run_stream(request | **kwargs, timeout?) - Run agent (streaming)

Audio

• speak(request | **kwargs, timeout?) - Text-to-speech (blocking)
• speak_stream(request | **kwargs, timeout?) - Text-to-speech (streaming)
• transcribe(request | **kwargs, timeout?) - Speech-to-text

Real-Time Transcription (TranscriptionWsClient)

• connect() - Establish WebSocket connection
• disconnect() - Close WebSocket connection
• start_session(init_request, audio_source) - Start bidirectional streaming transcription; yields list[TranscriptionWsResponse] (accumulated responses, newest last)
• async with client: - Auto connection management (recommended)

Cleanup

• cleanup() - Release resources
• async with client: - Auto cleanup (recommended)

Key Models

Core

• Settings(uid, provider, api_key, base_url?, blacklist_models?) - Provider config
• ProviderKind - OPENAI | GOOGLE | ANTHROPIC | GROQ | ELEVENLABS

Messages

• TextMessage(role, content) - Text message
• BinaryMessage(role, content, mime_type, caption?) - Image/audio message
• ToolCallMessage(role, tool_name, args) - Tool invocation by agent
• ToolReturnMessage(role, tool_name, content) - Tool execution result
• MessageRole - USER | MODEL | SYSTEM | TOOL_CALL | TOOL_RETURN (or use strings)

Requests

• AgentRequest(provider_uid, model, messages, tools?, gen_config?, include_history?, output_schema?, context_limit?, context_overflow_strategy?) - Set include_history=True to get full conversation. Set output_schema for structured JSON output. Set context_limit and context_overflow_strategy for handling large texts.
• SpeakRequest(provider_uid, model, text, voice, mime_type, sample_rate, gen_config?)
• TranscribeRequest(provider_uid, file, model, language?, gen_config?)
• TranscriptionInitWsRequest(provider_uid, model, language?, input_sample_rate?, input_audio_format?, gen_config?)
• TranscriptionAudioChunkWsRequest(audio) - Audio chunk for streaming

Context Overflow

• ContextOverflowStrategy - TRUNCATE | RECYCLE

Tools

• WebSearchInput(kind=ToolKind.WEB_SEARCH, search_context_size)
• MCPStreamableServerInput(kind=ToolKind.MCP_STREAMABLE_SERVER, url, prefix?, timeout?)

Structured Output

• OutputSchema(title, description?, properties, required?, additionalProperties?) - JSON Schema for structured output
• PropertyDef(type, description?, enum?, default?, minLength?, maxLength?, pattern?, minimum?, maximum?, items?, ...) - Property definition with validation constraints
• OutputSchema.from_pydantic(model) - Convert a Pydantic BaseModel class to OutputSchema

Fallback

• AgentFallbackRequest(strategy, requests, timeout_per_request?)
• AudioFallbackRequest(strategy, requests, timeout_per_request?)
• FallbackStrategy - SEQUENTIAL | PARALLEL

Responses

• AgentResponse(output, usage{input_tokens, output_tokens}, history?) - history included when include_history=True. output is a JSON string when output_schema is provided.
• TranscribeResponse(text, language)
• TranscriptionWsResponse(transcription, received_at) - Real-time transcription result; yielded as list[TranscriptionWsResponse] with newest last

Error Handling

try:
    response = await client.agent_run(
        provider_uid="openai",
        model="gpt-4",
        messages=[TextMessage(role="user", content="Hi")]
    )
except httpx.HTTPStatusError as e:
    print(f"HTTP {e.response.status_code}: {e.response.text}")
except httpx.RequestError as e:
    print(f"Request failed: {e}")
