The first complete connectivity solution for Agentic AI.
---
**Agentgateway** is an open source proxy built on AI-native protocols ([MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction) & [A2A](https://developers.googleblog.com/en/a2a-a-new-era-of-agent-interoperability/)) that provides drop-in security, observability, and governance for agent-to-LLM, agent-to-tool, and agent-to-agent communication across any framework and environment.

## Key Features
- **LLM Gateway**
Route traffic to major LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, and more) through a unified OpenAI-compatible API with budget and spend controls, prompt enrichment, load balancing, and failover.
- **MCP Gateway**
Connect LLMs to tools and external data sources via MCP with tool federation, stdio/HTTP/SSE/Streamable HTTP transports, OpenAPI integration, and OAuth authentication.
- **A2A Gateway**
Enable secure agent-to-agent communication using A2A, with capability discovery, modality negotiation, and task collaboration.
- **Inference Routing**
Intelligent routing to self-hosted models using Kubernetes Inference Gateway extensions, with decisions based on GPU utilization, KV cache, LoRA adapters, and queue depth.
- **Guardrails**
Multi-layered content filtering with regex, OpenAI moderation, AWS Bedrock Guardrails, Google Model Armor, and custom webhooks.
- **Security & Observability**
Auth (JWT, API keys, OAuth), fine-grained RBAC with CEL policy engine, rate limiting, TLS, and OpenTelemetry metrics/logs/tracing.
## Getting Started
- [Standalone Quickstart](https://agentgateway.dev/docs/quickstart) — Get started with agentgateway in minutes.
- [Kubernetes Quickstart](https://agentgateway.dev/docs/kubernetes/latest) — Deploy on Kubernetes using the built-in controller and Gateway API.
## Documentation
Depending on your deployment environment, check out the following docs:
- [agentgateway.dev/docs](https://agentgateway.dev/docs/): For standalone deployments such as local or on-prem. These docs are for this upstream `agentgateway/agentgateway` GitHub project.
- [agentgateway.dev/docs/kubernetes/latest](https://agentgateway.dev/docs/kubernetes/latest): For Kubernetes-based deployments using the built-in Kubernetes controller and Gateway API support.
Agentgateway has a built-in UI for you to explore agentgateway connecting agent-to-agent or agent-to-tool:
