Encrypted HTTP Body Protocol (EHBP)

Breaking Change: The API now supports Encrypted HTTP Body Protocol (EHBP) for end-to-end encryption of request and response payloads using attested encryption keys while keeping HTTP headers in the clear for routing purposes. EHBP provides the ability to cryptographically guarantees that user data can only be decrypted inside the TEE when the key is retrieved from an attestation report. Migration Required: Update all SDKs to version 0.10.0 or greater to maintain compatibility.
  • Python: pip install --upgrade tinfoil>=0.10.0
  • JavaScript: npm install tinfoil@latest
  • Swift: Update package dependency to 0.10.0 or greater
  • Go: go get github.com/tinfoilsh/tinfoil-go@latest
See the EHBP documentation for technical details.

SDK Updates - Simplified Client Initialization

All models can now be accessed through the unified model router hosted at https://inference.tinfoil.sh The router automatically routes to the appropriate model enclave based on your API request This maintains a consistent endpoint across all models and matches OpenAI API standards. Breaking Change: The enclave and repo parameters are now deprecated in the client initialization and have been removed from client constructors. Before: 
client = TinfoilAI(
    enclave="<enclave>.model.tinfoil.sh",
    repo="tinfoilsh/<config-repo>",
    api_key=os.getenv("TINFOIL_API_KEY")
)
After: 
client = TinfoilAI(
    api_key=os.getenv("TINFOIL_API_KEY")
)
Migration Guide: Remove the enclave and repo parameters from your client initialization Keep only the API key parameter. The SDK now automatically routes requests through https://inference.tinfoil.sh.
