# Bifrost AI Gateway
There is a **Bifrost** LLM gateway (OpenAI-compatible) at
`https://your-gateway.example.com`. Every call to every AI provider must go
through it, so that all requests are logged and tracked in one place. Hitting
`api.openai.com`, `api.anthropic.com`, `generativelanguage.googleapis.com`, etc.
directly defeats the whole purpose: those requests would be invisible to the
gateway's logging.
So the job of this skill is simple: **the moment you touch code that talks to an
LLM, point it at the gateway instead of the provider.** In practice that's almost
always a one-line change (the `base_url`) plus using the gateway key.
> Replace `your-gateway.example.com` with your own gateway host (set it once via
> the `BIFROST_BASE_URL` env var). Everything else stays identical.
## No gateway yet? — Bifrost quick start (one-time)
If no gateway is running, stand one up with Bifrost (the open-source LLM gateway):
```bash
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v "$(pwd)/data:/app/data" maximhq/bifrost
# or, without Docker: npx -y @maximhq/bifrost
```
Open `http://localhost:8080`, add your providers' API keys, and create a virtual
key under Governance (that key — commonly prefixed `sk-bf-` — is your
`BIFROST_API_KEY`). Then `BIFROST_BASE_URL` is `http://localhost:8080/v1` (or your
deployed host + `/v1`). Full steps:

## The three things you always need
1. **Base URL:** `https://your-gateway.example.com/v1`
2. **Model st
