vkrishna04/cognigate-gateway repository overview

⁠CogniGate gateway

The request path of CogniGate⁠, a self-hosted, multi-tenant LLM gateway. Applications hold one CogniGate key and speak the OpenAI API; provider credentials stay inside the deployment.

It handles authentication, capability aliases (fast, balanced, best), fallback chains, circuit breakers, rate limits and quotas, and optional response caching. Usage is sent to the companion cognigate-analytics⁠ image for durable storage.

⁠Tags

• latest: the newest build of main
• X.Y.Z and X.Y: releases
• Images are published for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64, with build provenance attestations. The same images are on ghcr.io/life-experimentalist/cognigate-gateway.

⁠Run it

The supported way to run CogniGate is the full stack (gateway, analytics, Postgres):

curl -sSL https://cognigate.vkrishna04.me/install.sh | bash

Read the script first if you prefer; it clones the repository, generates credentials and starts docker compose.

The gateway on its own:

docker run -p 8080:8080 \
  -e CG_ADMIN_BOOTSTRAP_KEY=<generate with: openssl rand -hex 24> \
  vkrishna04/cognigate-gateway:latest

Without ANALYTICS_URL and ANALYTICS_TOKEN the gateway keeps usage in memory, and a restart loses it.
