Pooling several model providers behind one local endpoint

A local OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible rotation proxy.

Fronts a pool of providers behind one stable endpoint, falling through to the next on a quota or auth error. Providers can be HTTP APIs or local CLI tools, and both OpenAI- and Anthropic-SDK clients point at it with no code changes. It binds loopback and refuses any other address without an api_key, because it holds a live key for every provider you configured.

What is in it

  • The problem — what goes unanswered without it, and who notices first.
  • Why the obvious alternative falls short — stated plainly, including where it is the better choice.
  • How it works — the method, not a feature list.
  • Concrete use cases — with console output quoted from the repository, never reconstructed.
  • The methodology behind any number it emits — every term shown, so the figure survives a question.
  • What it deliberately does not do — the section most papers leave out.

Part of the AI infrastructure theme.
