Update Agent

Update an existing AI agent on a live LiteLLM proxy.

Setup

LITELLM_BASE_URL  — e.g. https://my-proxy.example.com
LITELLM_API_KEY   — proxy admin key

Ask the user

agent_id — if they don't have it, list first:

curl -s "$BASE/v1/agents" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY"

What to change — any combination of:
- model (swap the underlying model)
- description
- tpm_limit / rpm_limit
- MCP server access

Run

Use PATCH to update only the changed fields:

curl -s -X PATCH "$BASE/v1/agents/<agent_id>" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "litellm_params": {"model": "<new_model>"},
    "agent_card_params": {"description": "<new_description>"}
  }'

Output

Show the updated agent name, model, and description. Confirm the agent ID is unchanged.
