Implement hierarchical configuration for LLM parameters with support for:
- Temperature control (0.0-2.0) to adjust response creativity
- Custom base_url for proxy servers and alternative endpoints
- 4-tier priority: request params > provider env > global env > defaults
Add helper functions in utils.py, update API schemas and handlers,
support environment variables (LLM_TEMPERATURE, OPENAI_TEMPERATURE, etc.),
and provide comprehensive documentation with examples.
Previously, the system incorrectly used OPENAI_API_KEY for all LLM providers
due to a hardcoded api_key_env fallback in config.yml. This caused authentication
errors when using non-OpenAI providers like Gemini.
Changes:
- Remove api_key_env from config.yml to let litellm handle provider-specific env vars
- Simplify get_llm_api_key() to return None, allowing litellm to auto-detect keys
- Update validate_llm_provider() to trust litellm's built-in key detection
- Update documentation to reflect the new automatic key handling
The fix leverages litellm's existing capability to automatically find the correct
environment variable for each provider (OPENAI_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_TOKEN, etc.)
without manual configuration.
