# UUTEL: Universal AI Provider for LiteLLM

## Project Overview

**UUTEL** is a Python package that extends LiteLLM's provider ecosystem by implementing custom providers for Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Google Cloud Code, and OpenAI Codex. It enables unified LLM inferencing through LiteLLM's standardized interface while leveraging the unique capabilities of each AI provider.

## Technical Architecture

### Core Design Principles

1. **LiteLLM Compatibility**: Full adherence to LiteLLM's provider interface patterns
2. **Unified API**: Consistent OpenAI-compatible interface across all providers
3. **Authentication Management**: Secure handling of different auth mechanisms (OAuth, API keys, service accounts)
4. **Streaming Support**: Real-time response streaming for all providers
5. **Tool Calling**: Function calling capabilities where supported
6. **Error Handling**: Robust error mapping and fallback mechanisms

### Naming Convention

**IMPORTANT**: All provider classes follow the pattern `{ProviderName}UU` where `UU` stands for "Universal Unit":

- **Base class**: `BaseUU` (extends LiteLLM's `BaseLLM`)
- **Claude Code provider**: `ClaudeCodeUU`
- **Gemini CLI provider**: `GeminiCLIUU`
- **Cloud Code provider**: `CloudCodeUU`
- **Codex provider**: `CodexUU`

This naming convention:
- Keeps class names concise and memorable
- Maintains consistency across all providers
- Clearly identifies UUTEL providers in the codebase
- Avoids conflicts with existing provider names

### Implementation Guidelines

**File Structure Pattern**:
```
providers/{provider_name}/
├── __init__.py              # Exports: {ProviderName}UU, {ProviderName}Auth
├── provider.py              # Main class: {ProviderName}UU(BaseUU)
├── auth.py                  # Auth class: {ProviderName}Auth
├── transforms.py            # Transform class: {ProviderName}Transform
└── models.py                # Model classes: {ProviderName}Request, {ProviderName}Response
```

**Class Naming Examples**:
```python
# Base infrastructure
class BaseUU(BaseLLM):                    # core/base.py

# Claude Code provider
class ClaudeCodeUU(BaseUU):               # providers/claude_code/provider.py
class ClaudeCodeAuth:                     # providers/claude_code/auth.py
class ClaudeCodeTransform:                # providers/claude_code/transforms.py
class ClaudeCodeRequest:                  # providers/claude_code/models.py
class ClaudeCodeResponse:                 # providers/claude_code/models.py

# Gemini CLI provider
class GeminiCLIUU(BaseUU):                # providers/gemini_cli/provider.py
class GeminiCLIAuth:                      # providers/gemini_cli/auth.py
class GeminiCLITransform:                 # providers/gemini_cli/transforms.py

# Cloud Code provider
class CloudCodeUU(BaseUU):                # providers/cloud_code/provider.py
class CloudCodeAuth:                      # providers/cloud_code/auth.py

# Codex provider
class CodexUU(BaseUU):                    # providers/codex/provider.py
class CodexAuth:                          # providers/codex/auth.py
```

**Import Pattern**:
```python
# Main package exports
from uutel.providers.claude_code import ClaudeCodeUU
from uutel.providers.gemini_cli import GeminiCLIUU
from uutel.providers.cloud_code import CloudCodeUU
from uutel.providers.codex import CodexUU

# Usage in LiteLLM registration
litellm.custom_provider_map = [
    {"provider": "claude-code", "custom_handler": ClaudeCodeUU()},
    {"provider": "gemini-cli", "custom_handler": GeminiCLIUU()},
    {"provider": "cloud-code", "custom_handler": CloudCodeUU()},
    {"provider": "codex", "custom_handler": CodexUU()},
]
```

    def __init__(self, api_key=None, **kwargs):
        self.auth_manager = ClaudeCodeAuth(api_key=api_key)
        super().__init__(**kwargs)

    async def completion(self, model, messages, **kwargs):
        # Transform messages to Claude Code format
        # Handle streaming and non-streaming requests

- **Tokens**: Access and refresh tokens
- **Storage**: Local file or environment variables
- **Flow**: Browser-based authentication

### 2. Gemini CLI Authentication
- **Methods**: Multiple (API key, Vertex AI, OAuth)
- **API Key**: `GEMINI_API_KEY` environment variable
- **Vertex AI**: Service account JSON or ADC
- **OAuth**: Personal Google account

### 3. Google Cloud Code Authentication
- **Method**: Google Cloud service accounts
- **Credentials**: Service account JSON or ADC
- **Project**: Google Cloud project ID required
- **Scopes**: Cloud platform and Code Assist APIs

### 4. OpenAI Codex Authentication
- **Method**: Session tokens from Codex CLI
- **Storage**: `~/.codex/auth.json`
- **Refresh**: Automatic token refresh
- **Fallback**: OpenAI API key for compatibility

## Message Format Transformations

### Input Transformation (LiteLLM → Provider)
Each provider requires specific message format conversion:

1. **OpenAI Format** (LiteLLM input) → **Provider Format**
2. **Role Mapping**: system/user/assistant → provider-specific roles
3. **Content Processing**: text, images, files → provider content types
4. **Tool Definitions**: OpenAI function schema → provider tool schema

### Output Transformation (Provider → LiteLLM)
Standardize responses to OpenAI format:

1. **Response Structure**: Provider response → OpenAI ChatCompletion
2. **Content Extraction**: Provider content → OpenAI message content
3. **Usage Statistics**: Provider tokens → OpenAI usage format
4. **Streaming Chunks**: Provider deltas → OpenAI delta format

## Error Handling and Retry Logic

### Error Categories
1. **Authentication Errors**: Invalid tokens, expired credentials
2. **Rate Limiting**: Request throttling, quota exceeded
3. **Model Errors**: Invalid model, model overloaded
4. **Network Errors**: Connection timeouts, DNS failures
5. **Validation Errors**: Invalid input format, parameter errors

### Retry Strategy
```python
class RetryConfig:
    max_retries: int = 3
    backoff_factor: float = 2.0
    retry_on_status: List[int] = [429, 502, 503, 504]
    retry_on_exceptions: List[Exception] = [ConnectionError, TimeoutError]
```

## Testing Strategy

### Unit Tests
- Test each provider in isolation
- Mock external API calls
- Validate message transformations
- Test error handling paths

### Integration Tests
- Test with real API endpoints
- Validate authentication flows
- Test streaming responses
- Validate tool calling

# UUTEL: Universal AI Provider for LiteLLM

**UUTEL** is a Python package that extends LiteLLM's provider ecosystem by implementing custom providers for Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Google Cloud Code, and OpenAI Codex. It enables unified LLM inferencing through LiteLLM's standardized interface while leveraging the unique capabilities of each AI provider.

## Architecture

UUTEL implements the **Universal Unit (UU)** pattern where each provider follows the naming convention `{ProviderName}UU`:

- **ClaudeCodeUU**: OAuth-based Claude Code provider with MCP tool integration
- **GeminiCLIUU**: Multi-auth Gemini CLI provider supporting API keys, Vertex AI, and OAuth
- **CloudCodeUU**: Google Cloud Code provider with service account authentication
- **CodexUU**: OpenAI Codex provider with ChatGPT backend integration

Each provider extends the `BaseUU` class (which inherits from LiteLLM's `BaseLLM`) and includes:
- Authentication management (`{Provider}Auth`)
- Message transformation (`{Provider}Transform`)
- Request/response models (`{Provider}Request`, `{Provider}Response`)

## Features

- **LiteLLM Compatibility**: Full adherence to LiteLLM's provider interface patterns
- **Unified API**: Consistent OpenAI-compatible interface across all providers
- **Authentication Management**: Secure handling of OAuth, API keys, and service accounts
- **Streaming Support**: Real-time response streaming for all providers
- **Tool Calling**: Function calling capabilities where supported
- **Error Handling**: Robust error mapping and fallback mechanisms

## Installation

```bash
pip install uutel

# With all optional dependencies
pip install uutel[all]

# Development installation
pip install -e .[dev]
```

## Basic Usage

```python
import litellm
from uutel import ClaudeCodeUU, GeminiCLIUU, CloudCodeUU, CodexUU

# Register UUTEL providers with LiteLLM
litellm.custom_provider_map = [
    {"provider": "claude-code", "custom_handler": ClaudeCodeUU()},
    {"provider": "gemini-cli", "custom_handler": GeminiCLIUU()},
    {"provider": "cloud-code", "custom_handler": CloudCodeUU()},
    {"provider": "codex", "custom_handler": CodexUU()},
]

# Use via LiteLLM's standard interface
response = litellm.completion(
    model="uutel/claude-code/claude-3-5-sonnet",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
```

## Provider-Specific Usage

    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Analyze this code"}],
    tools=[{"type": "function", "function": {"name": "analyze_code"}}]
)
```

response = litellm.completion(
    model="uutel/gemini-cli/gemini-2.0-flash-exp",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Generate code"}],
    stream=True
)
```

### Google Cloud Code Provider
```python
from uutel.providers.cloud_code import CloudCodeUU

# Service account authentication
provider = CloudCodeUU(project_id="your-gcp-project")
response = litellm.completion(
    model="uutel/cloud-code/gemini-2.5-pro",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Review this PR"}]
)
```

### OpenAI Codex Provider
```python
from uutel.providers.codex import CodexUU

# Uses Codex CLI session tokens
provider = CodexUU()
response = litellm.completion(
    model="uutel/codex/gpt-4o",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain this algorithm"}],
    max_tokens=4000
)
```

Read @external/ext/repo-tldr.txt 

Then analyze:

- @external/ext/ai-sdk-provider-gemini-cli.txt 
- @external/ext/cloud-code-ai-provider.txt 
- @external/ext/codex-ai-provider.txt 

Then into @PLAN.md write a very detailed /plan that creates 'uutel', a Python package that uses the 'litellm' infrastructure to expose LLM inferencing API/Python code based on Claude Code, Gemini CLI and OpenAI Codex. 

The 'ai-provider' files implement such functionality as provider plugins for the Vercel AI SDK. You need to "port" that functionality into Python in a 'litellm'-compatible way. 

Think about the plan, analyze the files, analyze & search & scan the full repos inside @external/repo .  

Once you’ve written the plan, re-analyze the plan, re-analyze & search & scan the full repos inside @external/repo .  

Then improve @PLAN.md and then into @TODO.md write a corresponding flat itemized list of tasks prefixed by - [ ]
