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
  • Model metadata enrichment from provider catalogs, OpenRouter, Artificial Analysis, and Hugging Face
  • 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.

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, withdrawal policy
[routing] Routing strategy, retry limits, quota mode, same-tier fairness
[dashboard] Dashboard toggle, theme, refresh interval
[providers.*] Provider configs with accounts and routing priority
[network] Outbound transport, DNS cache
[model_info] Optional model metadata refresh, aliases, overrides, and external source settings
[transcoder] Protocol transcoding between OpenAI and Anthropic formats

The catalog refresh is non-destructive by default: failed, empty, or partial upstream responses never silently de-pool a healthy account. Set [models].catalog_withdrawal_policy (preserve_until_health default, confirmed_once, confirmed_twice) to opt into destructive behavior on authoritative refreshes. See architecture/README.md § Catalog Refresh Semantics.

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 + tool-use + vision + thinking + structured outputs)
  • Streaming SSE events (including tool-call deltas and thinking deltas)
  • 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)

Phase 6 feature flags ([transcoder.features]) — all off by default:

  • tools — bidirectional tool calling translation
  • vision — image/document content parts
  • thinking — extended thinking ↔ reasoning_content
  • structured_outputs — response_format / json_schema coercion
  • anthropic_primitives — top_k, cache_control, context_management, container, mcp_servers

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)
GET /api/model-info Enriched model metadata summaries
GET /api/model-info/{model_id} Enriched metadata detail for one model
GET /api/model-info/sources Model-info source health
POST /api/model-info/refresh Trigger model-info refresh (auth-gated)

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

Agent Configuration

eggpool configsetup generates configuration snippets for popular coding agents:

Target Command Output --write default Model Status
OpenCode eggpool configsetup opencode JSON provider config N/A (clipboard) auto stable
Claude Code eggpool configsetup claude-code JSON snippet N/A (clipboard) N/A stable
Aider eggpool configsetup aider Shell env exports .env.eggpool recommended stable
Codex eggpool configsetup codex TOML provider block N/A (printed) recommended version-sensitive
Qwen Code eggpool configsetup qwen-code JSON provider block N/A (printed) optional verify schema
Kilo eggpool configsetup kilo JSON provider block N/A (printed) optional verify schema
Continue eggpool configsetup continue YAML model block ~/.continue/eggpool.yaml usually yes stable fragment
Cline eggpool configsetup cline JSON profile cline-eggpool.json recommended paste into UI
Roo Code eggpool configsetup roo-code JSON profile roo-code-eggpool.json recommended paste into UI
Goose eggpool configsetup goose Shell env exports N/A (printed) recommended verify env vars
OpenHands eggpool configsetup openhands Shell env exports N/A (printed) recommended stable fragment

Shared options: --host, --base-url, --model, --write, --output, --force, --no-clipboard, --print-secret. Generated JSON, TOML, YAML, and shell snippets escape catalog/config values for the target format, including provider-suffixed model IDs.

Examples:

eggpool configsetup aider --model openai/gpt-4 --write
eggpool configsetup continue --model claude-sonnet-4 --output ~/.continue/eggpool.yaml
eggpool configsetup cline --no-clipboard
