ProxyGate — Sell API Capacity#

Seller workflow: create listings, manage them, expose services via tunnel, track earnings.

Process#

1. Scaffold a project (optional)#

If building a new service from scratch:

bash

proxygate create                                    # interactive
proxygate create my-agent --template http-api --port 3000
proxygate create my-agent --template llm-agent --port 8080

Templates: http-api (Hono REST API), llm-agent (Hono + LLM provider + streaming).

2. Test locally#

Validate endpoints before going live:

bash

proxygate test                                      # auto-detect from tunnel config
proxygate test --endpoint "POST /v1/analyze" --payload '{"code":"x=1"}'
proxygate test -c proxygate.tunnel.yaml

3. Create a listing#

bash

proxygate listings create    # interactive — walks through service, pricing, description, docs

Interactive mode asks for: service name, API key, pricing model, description, documentation, shield settings.

Non-interactive:

bash

proxygate listings create --non-interactive \
  --service-name "My API" \
  --base-url "https://api.example.com" \
  --auth-pattern bearer \
  --api-key "your-api-key" \
  --price 5000 \
  --total-rpm 100 \
  --categories ai \
  --description "Fast Llama 3.3 access"

4. Manage listings#

bash

# View listings
proxygate listings list                     # list your listings
proxygate listings list --table             # table format with status, RPM, price

# Update a listing
proxygate listings update <id> --price 3000 --description "Updated pricing"

# Pause/unpause (stop accepting requests temporarily)
proxygate listings pause <id>
proxygate listings unpause <id>

# Delete permanently
proxygate listings delete <id>

# Rotate API key or OAuth2 credentials (no downtime)
proxygate listings rotate-key <id> --key <new-api-key>
proxygate listings rotate-key <id> --oauth2 <new-token>

# Upload API documentation
proxygate listings upload-docs <id> ./openapi.yaml    # OpenAPI or markdown

# View docs for your listing
proxygate listings docs <id>

# Manage upstream headers
proxygate listings headers <id>                        # list current headers
proxygate listings headers <id> set X-Custom "value"   # add/update header
proxygate listings headers <id> unset X-Custom         # remove header

5. Configure tunnel#

Create proxygate.tunnel.yaml:

yaml

services:
  - name: my-api
    port: 8080
    price_per_request: 1000           # lamports (0.001 USDC)
    description: My AI service
    docs: ./openapi.yaml              # auto-uploaded on connect
    endpoints:
      - method: POST
        path: /v1/analyze
        description: Analyze code
    paths:
      - /v1/*

Per-token pricing:

yaml

services:
  - name: llm-service
    port: 3000
    pricing_unit: per_token
    price_per_input_token: 100
    price_per_output_token: 300

6. Start tunnel#

bash

# Development (request logging + config file watching + auto-reload)
proxygate dev
proxygate dev -c my-services.yaml

# Production (stable connection, auto-reconnect, graceful drain on Ctrl+C)
proxygate tunnel
proxygate tunnel -c proxygate.tunnel.yaml

Dev mode shows live request/response logs with status, latency, and size. Production mode is for long-running stable connections with automatic reconnection.

7. Check earnings#

bash

proxygate settlements                              # earnings summary
proxygate settlements -r seller                    # seller-specific view
proxygate settlements -s weather-api --from 2026-03-01  # filtered
proxygate balance                                  # current balance
proxygate listings list --table                    # listing status overview

SDK — Programmatic Serving#

typescript

import { ProxyGate, ProxyGateClient } from '@proxygate/sdk';

// One-liner: expose services immediately
const tunnel = await ProxyGate.serve({
  keypair: '~/.proxygate/keypair.json',
  services: [
    { name: 'code-review', port: 3000, docs: './openapi.yaml' },
  ],
  onConnected(listings) { console.log('Live!', listings); },
});

// Or via client for more control
const client = await ProxyGateClient.create({
  keypairPath: '~/.proxygate/keypair.json',
});

// Manage listings programmatically
const { listings } = await client.listings.list();
await client.listings.update('listing-id', { price_per_request: 3000 });
await client.listings.pause('listing-id');
await client.listings.unpause('listing-id');
await client.listings.rotateKey('listing-id', { api_key: 'your-new-api-key' });
await client.listings.uploadDocs('listing-id', {
  doc_type: 'openapi',
  content: fs.readFileSync('./openapi.yaml', 'utf-8'),
});

// Start tunnel
const tunnel = await client.serve([
  { name: 'my-api', port: 3000 },
]);

// Graceful shutdown (waits for in-flight requests)
await tunnel.drain();
tunnel.disconnect();

Success criteria#

• Service running locally and responding to requests
• Listing created (visible in proxygate listings list)
• Tunnel connected (dev or production mode)
• Incoming requests visible in dev mode logs
