It bundles protocol buffer definitions for four LLM inference backends: SGLang scheduler and encoder services, vLLM engine service, and TensorRT-LLM service. Rather than requiring users to compile proto files themselves, the package ships ready-to-use Python stubs generated at build time.\n\nThe package is lightweight\u2014a pure Python wheel with only grpcio and protobuf as runtime dependencies\u2014and targets Python 3.10 and later. It is primarily useful for developers building clients or integrations that communicate with SMG-orchestrated inference services, or for projects like vLLM that need to speak to multiple backend engines via gRPC.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building or deploying an SMG-based inference system or integrating with vLLM, TensorRT-LLM, or SGLang via gRPC. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a permissive license. Install only if you actually need these specific proto stubs; it is a narrow-purpose dependency."},"id":"smg-grpc-proto","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/smg-grpc-proto","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/smg-grpc-proto.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/smg-grpc-proto/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-11","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"smg-grpc-proto","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"SMG gRPC proto definitions for vLLM, TRT-LLM, MLX, TokenSpeed, and SGLang"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1384741,"position":3977,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.4.14"}
