Intro

Run a Rust agent proxy that connects agents to tools and MCP servers with security controls and observability. Releases ship cross-platform binaries.

  • Best for: Teams who need a centralized policy point (auth, rate limits, TLS, telemetry) between agents and tool backends
  • Works with: Standalone binary or Kubernetes deployments (see agentgateway docs)
  • Setup time: 15 minutes

How to Use It Well

  • Setup time ~15 minutes (download a release binary + follow standalone quickstart)
  • GitHub stars + forks (verified): see Source & Thanks
  • One gateway can front multiple tool backends and MCP servers (policy + telemetry in one place)

As agents proliferate, every direct tool integration becomes a governance problem (credentials, auth, logging, rate limits). A gateway pattern gives you one place to enforce policy and observe traffic across multiple agents and tool backends.

FAQ

Q: Is it an agent framework? A: It’s closer to infrastructure: a proxy/gateway layer between agents and tools/MCP servers.

Q: Can I run it on Kubernetes? A: The README links to standalone and Kubernetes quickstarts; pick the deployment style that matches your environment.

Q: What should I configure first? A: Start with auth + rate limits + an allowlist of upstream servers, then add telemetry and routing rules.
