pllm.providers Python API
Public objects, practical usage, and research context for pllm.providers.
Provider discovery reads package-confined static manifests without importing provider code; factory loading is a separate approved operation. Presence documents API availability, not complete model, security, or deployment coverage; check implementation status before relying on a path.
Research context
This API is project infrastructure rather than an implementation of one specific paper. Relevant method pages link their primary sources separately.
Python SDK example
The example performs a bounded offline task and checks an observable result. It does not download a checkpoint or contact a provider.
import pllm.providers as providers
# An explicit empty entry-point set disables external package discovery.
assert providers.discover_providers(entry_points=()) == ()API: pllm.providers
