LiteLLM 1.103.0 deprecates the `litellm-proxy` command. Scripts that call it should switch to `lite`.
The release deprecates the litellm-proxy entrypoint in favour of lite, and renames lite autoroute up/down to start/stop, keeping the old names as deprecated aliases.1 According to the pull request, litellm-proxy now prints one deprecation line on stderr and otherwise runs as before.2 Neither page gives a removal date.
The same release removes a duplicate user-budget hook that returned 429 on zero-cost models.1
Breaking
Nothing fails today. Replace litellm-proxy with lite in scripts, Dockerfiles and CI now, and check any job that treats stderr output as a failure.
