LiteLLM 1.107 RC Extends MCP and Agent-Access Boundaries

What changed: Added the 1.107.0-rc.1 agent-access, ID-JAG, MCP capability-discovery, and resource-capping changes, with primary sources and explicit release-candidate verification limits.

Title

~~Removed: LiteLLM 1.106 Makes MCP and Tool-Execution Boundaries Explicit~~ LiteLLM 1.107 RC Extends MCP and Agent-Access Boundaries

Summary

Removed: LiteLLM 1.106.0 disables local stdio MCP servers by default, adds fail-closed catalog screening and bounded schema validation, and ships a small tool loop. Source inspection confirms the stdio gate; no live proxy or MCP run was performed. LiteLLM 1.107.0-rc.1 adds opt-in least-privilege A2A access, scoped ID-JAG redemption, resource-capped MCP credentials, and budgeted capability discovery; 1.106’s stdio gate remains the stable baseline.

LiteLLM 1.106.0 additionally ships `Harness.TOOL_LOOP`, a small in-process tool-calling loop with generated schemas, per-call approval mode, turn limits, sessions, and usage/cost accounting. That is useful plumbing, but it does not make caller-provided Python tools safe by itself: the release notes explicitly say those tools run in the caller process and must enforce their own file and network limits.

## The 1.107.0 release candidate adds a second boundary layer LiteLLM published `v1.107.0-rc.1` on 18 October. This is a release candidate, not a stable release, but its agent-facing changes are substantive enough to track separately from 1.106. The tagged release adds an opt-in `general_settings.agent_access_default_deny` policy: when enabled, a key or team with no explicit agent grant is denied access to A2A agent cards and `message/send`; explicit key/team grants and proxy-admin access remain allowed. The pull request's integration matrix reports 403 for the ungranted key and 200 for a granted key. The candidate also carries an MCP cross-application-access path. An allowlisted requesting app can redeem an identity-provider ID-JAG at `/token` using the RFC 7523 JWT-bearer grant. The implementation requires issuer, subject, audience, expiry, issued-at, JTI, and client ID claims; it verifies the configured issuer/JWKS, makes the JTI single-use until expiry, and narrows the resulting credential by `scope`. A gateway-origin audience can grant MCP routes, LLM routes, or both; the `/mcp` resource audience is capped to MCP routes. The later release-candidate fix additionally rejects a signed `resource` claim naming a resource the gateway does not serve and caps an MCP credential to the gateway's MCP resource. The same candidate enables verified stateless MCP protocol capabilities and keeps optional capability probes inside the existing catalog-listing budget. The implementation preserves legacy initialization flags, probes authorized upstreams through existing adapters, and rejects unsupported modern transports; the associated pull request reports 234 affected unit tests and 62 mapped interaction scenarios passing in its contributor verification. That is project-reported evidence, not an independent run here.

## What this establishes—and what it does not

**Observed:** the tagged source contains an environment-only stdio gate; the release is published as LiteLLM 1.106.0; and the release/PR documentation describes fail-closed MCP catalog screening, bounded validation, and an opt-in stdio path.
