Features

• Content-based routing — analyzes your prompt to pick the cheapest model that can handle the task (Opus 4.6 for architecture, Haiku 4.5 for typos)
• 10 providers, 15 models — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, Groq, OpenRouter, Mistral, Together, Fireworks, Cerebras + local Ollama
• Delta context buffer — watches code2llm output and sends only file diffs, not full context (saves 60–80% tokens)
• Budget enforcement — daily/monthly USD limits with per-request caps
• Fallback chains — if Anthropic is rate-limited, auto-fallback to OpenAI → DeepSeek → local
• OpenAI-compatible API — drop-in replacement for any tool expecting OpenAI format
• Docker + Podman + Quadlet — development, production, and systemd-native deployments

Quick Start

Option A: Local Python

git clone https://github.com/wronai/proxym && cd proxym
bash scripts/setup.sh
# Edit .env with your API keys
proxym

Option B: Docker Compose

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your API keys
docker compose up -d

Option C: Jetson Orin

docker build -f Dockerfile.jetson -t proxym:jetson .
docker run --runtime nvidia --gpus all \
  -p 4000:4000 -p 11434:11434 \
  --env-file .env \
  proxym:jetson

Test it

curl http://localhost:4000/health

curl http://localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-proxy-local-dev" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "balanced",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

Model Routing Strategy

The proxy analyzes each prompt and picks the optimal model:

Task Type	Tier	Model Selected	Cost/1M tokens
"Fix this typo"	trivial	Cerebras Llama 70B / DeepSeek V3	$0.27–$0.60
"What does this function do?"	operational	Haiku 4.5 / Gemini Flash	$0.15–$1.00
"Implement a REST endpoint"	standard	Sonnet 4.6 / GPT-4.1	$2.00–$3.00
"Refactor auth across 20 files"	complex	Sonnet 4.6 / Gemini Pro	$3.00–$10.00
"Debug this race condition step by step"	deep	Opus 4.6 / DeepSeek R1	$0.55–$5.00

Model Aliases

Use these as the model parameter for explicit routing:

Alias	Routes To	When to Use
cheap	Haiku 4.5	Debug, validation, simple Q&A
balanced	Sonnet 4.6	Default coding, implementation
premium	Opus 4.6	Complex refactoring, architecture
free	Gemini 2.5 Flash	Planning, analysis (free tier)
local	Qwen 3B (Ollama)	Offline, privacy, autocomplete

Automatic Routing

Without a model alias, the proxy analyzes your message:

# Automatically routes to cheap model
curl -X POST localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -d '{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "What is a for loop?"}]}'

# Automatically routes to premium model
curl -X POST localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -d '{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Refactor the entire auth module to microservices"}]}'

# Force a tier with header
curl -X POST localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -H "X-Task-Tier: deep" \
  -d '{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Why does this deadlock?"}]}'

Delta Context Buffer

The proxy maintains a buffer of your project files (from code2llm output) and sends only diffs to the LLM, dramatically reducing token usage.

Setup

# Terminal 1: Generate code2llm output
pip install code2llm
code2llm ./ -f all -o ./project --no-chunk

# Terminal 2: Start the watcher
proxym-client --watch ./project --proxy http://localhost:4000

# Terminal 3: Query with context injection
curl -X POST localhost:4000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -H "X-Inject-Context: true" \
  -d '{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain the auth module"}]}'

How It Works

1. code2llm generates project analysis files in ./project/
2. proxym-client watches the directory with watchfiles
3. On change, it computes a unified diff against the last-sent snapshot
4. Only changed portions are sent to the proxy as a <context_delta> block
5. When you add X-Inject-Context: true, the delta is injected into the system prompt

Before (full context every request): ~120K tokens × $3/1M = $0.36/request After (delta only): ~5K tokens × $3/1M = $0.015/request → 96% savings

IDE Integration

Roo Code

Settings → Provider: OpenAI Compatible

• API Base: http://localhost:4000
• API Key: (your master key from .env)
• Sticky Models per mode:
  • Architect → free
  • Code → balanced
  • Debug → cheap
  • Custom Opus → premium

Cline / Continue.dev / Aider

Same pattern: point API base to http://localhost:4000 with your master key.

Deployment

Docker Compose (Development)

docker compose up -d          # proxy + redis + ollama
docker compose logs -f proxy  # watch logs

Docker Compose + Traefik (Production)

docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
# Access via https://proxym.local

Podman Quadlet (Systemd-native)

# Copy quadlet files
mkdir -p ~/.config/containers/systemd
cp quadlet/*.container quadlet/*.network ~/.config/containers/systemd/

# Build and tag image
podman build -t localhost/proxym:latest .

# Create config dir
mkdir -p ~/.config/proxym
cp .env ~/.config/proxym/.env

# Enable and start
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user start proxym
systemctl --user status proxym

Jetson Orin

The Jetson Dockerfile bundles Ollama + AI Proxy in a single container:

docker build -f Dockerfile.jetson -t proxym:jetson .
docker run --runtime nvidia --gpus all \
  -p 4000:4000 -p 11434:11434 \
  -v ~/ollama:/root/.ollama \
  --env-file .env \
  proxym:jetson

Models available on Jetson Orin 8GB:

• qwen2.5-coder:1.5b — autocomplete (~1GB, ~30 tok/s)
• qwen2.5-coder:3b — code generation (~2GB, ~18 tok/s)
• phi3:3.8b — general tasks (~2.5GB, ~15 tok/s)
