EggPool

A lightweight, LAN-hosted proxy that aggregates multiple AI provider accounts behind one OpenAI/Anthropic-compatible endpoint.

Features

  • Proxies model requests across multiple providers and accounts behind a single endpoint
  • Supports OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible upstream request paths
  • Dynamically discovers available models; routes by quota utilization
  • Per-account outbound proxy support (pproxy — SOCKS5, HTTP, Shadowsocks)
  • Tracks requests, tokens, latency, errors, and estimated costs in SQLite
  • Multi-page dashboard with 50+ themes, reliability, routing, and runtime views
  • Designed for lightweight deployments (Raspberry Pi, SBCs)
  • Transparent protocol transcoding between OpenAI and Anthropic request formats

Quick Start

# Install (one-shot)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eggstack/eggpool/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

# Interactive onboarding — connect providers, validate, start
eggpool onboard

# Install as a systemd service
sudo env "PATH=$PATH" "$(command -v eggpool)" deploy systemd --install

See Deployment for alternative install methods (pipx, manual, production) and the full deployment guide.

CLI Reference

Command Description
eggpool serve Start the proxy server (--daemon to detach)
eggpool onboard Interactive onboarding wizard
eggpool connect Add a provider account interactively
eggpool connect list List supported providers
eggpool check-config Validate configuration
eggpool migrate Run database migrations

All commands accept --config /path/to/config.toml. Config resolution: --config > $EGGPOOL_CONFIG > ~/.config/eggpool/config.toml > ./config.toml.

Full command reference: docs/deployment.md

Configuration

Configuration lives in a single TOML file. API keys are loaded from environment variables or .env.

# Example provider configuration
[providers.opencode-go]
id = "opencode-go"
base_url = "https://opencode.ai/zen/go/v1"
protocols = ["openai", "anthropic"]

[[providers.opencode-go.accounts]]
name = "personal"
api_key = "sk-your-opencode-go-key"

Use eggpool connect for interactive provider setup. See docs/providers.md for the full provider catalog, configuration details, and troubleshooting.

Key Config Sections

Section Purpose
[server] Bind address, port (default 11300), API key, logging, threads
[upstream] Upstream API base URL, timeouts, connection pool
[database] SQLite path, WAL mode
[models] Catalog refresh, exposure mode, model collapse
[routing] Routing strategy, retry limits, quota mode
[dashboard] Dashboard toggle, theme, refresh interval
[providers.*] Provider configs with accounts and routing priority
[network] Outbound transport, DNS cache
[transcoder] Protocol transcoding between OpenAI and Anthropic formats

Full config reference: config.example.toml | docs/providers.md

Protocol transcoding

When [transcoder] enabled = true, EggPool bridges OpenAI Chat Completions and Anthropic Messages bidirectionally so a single client ecosystem (e.g. OpenCode, which speaks only OpenAI) can reach Anthropic-only upstreams (e.g. MiniMax International at api.minimax.io/anthropic) and vice versa.

What gets translated:

  • Request bodies (text-only in v1)
  • Streaming SSE events
  • Non-retryable error envelopes
  • Usage and cost fields (preserved exactly as the upstream reported them)

What is dropped with a structured warning log:

  • OpenAI fields with no Anthropic equivalent (logit_bias, presence_penalty, top_logprobs, etc.)
  • Anthropic fields with no OpenAI equivalent (top_k, cache_control)

What is not translated in v1 (lands in phase 6):

  • Tool calls / function calling
  • Vision / image content
  • Extended thinking / reasoning
  • Structured outputs (response_format / json_schema)

See docs/transcoding.md for the full translation table and known limitations.

API Endpoints

Method Path Description
GET /v1/models List available models
POST /v1/chat/completions OpenAI-compatible chat completions
POST /v1/messages Anthropic-compatible messages
GET /v1/healthz Liveness check
GET /v1/readyz Readiness check
GET /api/backoffs Active upstream-derived account backoffs (?now=<epoch> for reproducible snapshots)

When [dashboard].enabled = true, a multi-page dashboard is served at / with request stats, latency metrics, provider health, and more. Stats API available under /api/stats/*.
