I can start with the release notes from 0.25a0:

• llm models --options now shows keys and environment variables for models that use API keys. Thanks, Steve Morin. #903
• Added py.typed marker file so LLM can now be used as a dependency in projects that use mypy without a warning. #887
• $ characters can now be used in templates by escaping them as $$. Thanks, @guspix. #904
• LLM now uses pyproject.toml instead of setup.py. #908
