LiteLLM Provider Parity

This is the parity ledger for the providers currently registered by clojure-llm-sdk. It is intentionally not a LiteLLM provider-count target. The SDK should not add unrelated providers just because LiteLLM has them.

Baseline:

• LiteLLM clone: /tmp/litellm
• Endpoint matrix: /tmp/litellm/provider_endpoints_support.json
• Scope: providers registered by llm.sdk/list-providers

SDK Surface Mapping

SDK surface	LiteLLM endpoint family
complete, streaming, tools, json-schema, reasoning	chat_completions
embedding	embeddings
rerank	rerank
image-generation	image_generations
transcription	audio_transcriptions
tts	audio_speech
moderation	moderations

LiteLLM endpoint families with no public SDK surface today are not counted as implemented parity: raw provider-native messages/responses pass-through, a2a, interactions, batches, file lifecycle APIs, count_tokens, search, ocr, realtime, vector_stores, assistants, fine_tuning, rag, containers, image edits, and image variations. If those become SDK goals, they need first-class public functions, transports, schemas, fixtures, and live probes.

File/document attachment is different from file lifecycle management. The canonical :part/type :file message part is an SDK surface and is serialized for transports with provider-native file/document input support:

• OpenAI Responses / Codex: input_file
• Anthropic Messages: document content block
• Gemini / Vertex Gemini: fileData or inlineData
• Bedrock Converse: document content block

OpenAI Chat Completions and Cohere chat reject :file parts explicitly rather than stringifying maps into prompts.

Current Provider Ledger

SDK provider	LiteLLM provider	Constructor-backed SDK parity	Remaining LiteLLM gap for this provider family
:openai	openai	chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema, reasoning, file attachments on Chat Completions, embeddings, moderation, image generation, transcription, TTS	general Responses public surface, text completions, image edits/variations, realtime, assistants, vector stores, batches, fine tuning, containers, RAG
:anthropic	anthropic	messages-backed chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema, thinking, OAuth/OAT, file/document attachments, native cache markers	count tokens, batches, file lifecycle APIs, skills, public raw messages/responses pass-through
:bedrock	bedrock	Converse chat, streaming eventstream, tools, guardrails, cachePoint, file/document attachments, image generation, rerank	embeddings, count tokens, invoke-model variants, vector search/RAG, provider-specific invoke transforms
:cohere	cohere	native chat, streaming, tools, citations, textual file/document attachments via documents, embeddings, rerank	responses/messages wrappers and a2a/interactions are not SDK surfaces; keep v1/v2 embed/rerank variants fixture-backed
:gemini-native	gemini	native chat, streaming, tools, multimodal, file/document attachments, reasoning, cachedContent handling	count tokens, file lifecycle APIs, vector search/RAG, realtime, public generateContent pass-through
:vertex-gemini	vertex_ai	Vertex Gemini chat, streaming, tools, multimodal, file/document attachments, reasoning	embeddings, TTS, OCR, count tokens, fine tuning, RAG/vector stores, realtime, public generateContent pass-through
:vertex-imagen	vertex_ai	image generation	image edits/videos and other Vertex AI endpoint families
:openrouter	openrouter	chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema, reasoning, provider routing, embeddings, image generation, live model/pricing lookup	responses, image edit, messages/a2a/interactions
:perplexity	perplexity	chat, streaming, JSON schema, web-search-shaped response/citations	dedicated search endpoint, responses/messages/a2a/interactions
:codex	openai	OpenAI Responses-shaped Codex chat, streaming, tools, file attachments, reasoning, encrypted reasoning	not a general OpenAI Responses API surface
:codex-backend	chatgpt	ChatGPT backend Responses/SSE path, OAuth auth-json cache, tools, file attachments, reasoning	not a general ChatGPT automation surface
:ollama-native	ollama	native chat, streaming, tools, multimodal, embeddings	responses/messages/a2a/interactions wrappers
:voyage	voyage	embeddings, rerank	contextual embedding variants need fixture/live coverage
:jina	jina_ai	embeddings, rerank	LiteLLM only declares embeddings in endpoint matrix; rerank is kept because Jina exposes it and fixtures cover it
:elevenlabs	elevenlabs	TTS	LiteLLM also declares chat/messages/responses; this SDK currently treats ElevenLabs as a voice provider only
:mistral	mistral	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema, embeddings	OCR and audio transcription
:groq	groq	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema, reasoning, transcription	responses/messages/a2a/interactions
:deepseek	deepseek	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, reasoning	responses/messages/a2a/interactions
:kimi	moonshot	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, reasoning	responses/messages/a2a/interactions
:kimi-code	anthropic	Kimi Code OpenAI-compatible coding endpoint, streaming, tools, reasoning, CLI identity headers	Anthropic endpoint families are not implied by Kimi Code
:cerebras	cerebras	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, reasoning	responses/messages/a2a/interactions
:together	together_ai	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema, embeddings	responses/messages/a2a/interactions

:volcengine	volcengine	OpenAI-compatible chat, streaming, tools, JSON schema	responses/messages/a2a/interactions
:fake	none	deterministic test transport only	excluded from LiteLLM parity

Hard Rule

Provider coverage must stay constructor-backed. A provider row may not claim an SDK surface unless the profile has the matching transport constructor and the request can be built offline by llm.sdk.provider-coverage-test.
