Extract API definitions, models, and provider specifications into a
standalone llama-stack-api package that can be published to PyPI
independently of the main llama-stack server.
Motivation
External providers currently import from llama-stack, which overrides
the installed version and causes dependency conflicts. This separation
allows external providers to:
- Install only the type definitions they need without server dependencies
- Avoid version conflicts with the installed llama-stack package
- Be versioned and released independently
This enables us to re-enable external provider module tests that were
previously blocked by these import conflicts.
Changes
- Created llama-stack-api package with minimal dependencies (pydantic, jsonschema)
- Moved APIs, providers datatypes, strong_typing, and schema_utils
- Updated all imports from llama_stack.* to llama_stack_api.*
- Preserved git history using git mv for moved files
- Configured local editable install for development workflow
- Updated linting and type-checking configuration for both packages
- Rebased on top of upstream src/ layout changes
Testing
Package builds successfully and can be imported independently.
All pre-commit hooks pass with expected exclusions maintained.
Next Steps
- Publish llama-stack-api to PyPI
- Update external provider dependencies
- Re-enable external provider module tests

# What does this PR do?
use SecretStr for OpenAIMixin providers
- RemoteInferenceProviderConfig now has auth_credential: SecretStr
- the default alias is api_key (most common name)
- some providers override to use api_token (RunPod, vLLM, Databricks)
- some providers exclude it (Ollama, TGI, Vertex AI)

**Description:**
The standard markdown [!NOTE] format is not supported on Sphinx
generated documentation, replacing those instances. Also updating other
Notes, Tips and Warning blocks throughout the source docs
WIP: Working to update the provider code gen
A bunch of miscellaneous cleanup focusing on tests, but ended up
speeding up starter distro substantially.
- Pulled llama stack client init for tests into `pytest_sessionstart` so
it does not clobber output
- Profiling of that told me where we were doing lots of heavy imports
for starter, so lazied them
- starter now starts 20seconds+ faster on my Mac
- A few other smallish refactors for `compat_client`
**Description**
This PR removes some of the warnings when uv builds the docs
- Errors appear when generating docs about .md files not appearing in
toctree. ~~Adding content to the `providers-gen.py ` file that adds `---
orphan: true ---` to to each file.~~. Added a toctree generator to the
`providers-gen.py` file, this gets rid of the errors in the builds.
- Deletes the `_openai_compat` files, extension of PR #2849
- Adds the `files` APIs section to the `providers` toctree on the index
page
- Manually adds the `--- orphan: true ---` to the advanced apis. Ill try
to find a way to modify the providers code gen so it automatically adds
it, but this fixes the errors.
- Adds the `testing.md` to the `contributing` toctree
- Adds `starting_llama_stack_server.md` to `distributions` toctree
There are some other warnings im still looking at but this PR gets rid
of most of the toctree errors
Theres also an issue with the actual distribution-codegen that I can
investigate in another PR. Opened a bug for it here #2873
# What does this PR do?
Simple approach to get some provider pages in the docs.
Add or update description fields in the provider configuration class
using Pydantic’s Field, ensuring these descriptions are clear and
complete, as they will be used to auto-generate provider documentation
via ./scripts/distro_codegen.py instead of editing the docs manually.
