pixiu-llm-gateway

name	pixiu-llm-gateway
description	Creates and validates dubbo-go-pixiu LLM gateway conf.yaml. Use for LLM proxy/tokenizer/kvcache filters, llm_meta, vLLM, LMCache, retry/fallback, or Nacos LLM discovery. Do not use for MCP gateway config.

pixiu-llm-gateway

Purpose

Generate a complete or embeddable LLM gateway conf.yaml that configures Pixiu as a multi-provider HTTP proxy.

When to use

• Use when:

  • Generating or fixing Pixiu LLM gateway conf.yaml, including LLM proxy/tokenizer/kvcache, llm_meta, retry/fallback, vLLM/LMCache, or Nacos LLM discovery.

• Do not use for:

  • MCP gateway, HTTP-to-Dubbo routes, or implementing new LLM-related filters.

Inputs

Do not generate YAML, write code, create files, or take any implementation action until the user has provided all required inputs. This is a first principle.

If any required input is missing, this turn must only ask for the missing fields in the current input group; do not generate examples, defaults, YAML, code, or final output.

Even if configuration information seems inferable, obvious, or implied by context, you must still ask the user to confirm it. Do not proceed until the user confirms it.

Workflow

1. Check required Inputs first:
   1. Read existing config and already provided user information first; do not ask again for information already present or stated.
   2. Ask one Inputs group at a time. Each time, output only that group's required fields, with a short explanation after each field.
   3. If the current group's required fields are incomplete, ask only for the missing fields and do not move to the next group.
   4. After the current group's required fields are complete, ask whether to fill that group's optional fields; if yes, list those optional fields with short explanations.
   5. After optional fields are skipped or completed, apply that group's defaults and output default-value information; defaults must not override existing config or user input.
2. Read current source before generating YAML:
   • pkg/common/constant/key.go.
   • pkg/filter/llm/proxy/filter.go.
   • pkg/filter/llm/tokenizer/tokenizer.go.
   • pkg/filter/ai/kvcache/config.go and pkg/filter/ai/kvcache/handlers.go.
   • pkg/model/llm.go, pkg/model/cluster.go, and pkg/model/base.go.
3. Choose static or registry path by upstream_mode: static uses static_resources.clusters[]; registry uses the LLM registry adapter.
4. Generate listener, route, and filters: use HCM to carry the LLM route and HTTP filters; add dgp.filter.ai.kvcache, tokenizer, and dgp.filter.llm.proxy as needed.
5. Generate LLM upstream: static endpoints go under socket_address and llm_meta; ensure the LLM cluster does not mix in ordinary HTTP endpoints.

Output format

• Show the relevant YAML fragments.

Validation

• Verify LLM filter-chain order: dgp.filter.ai.kvcache -> dgp.filter.llm.tokenizer -> dgp.filter.llm.proxy; ignore missing filters within this order chain.
• Verify scheme is under dgp.filter.llm.proxy.config, not under an endpoint; socket_address.domains contains host names only, such as api.openai.com, not full URLs or paths.
• When KV cache is enabled, verify the LMCache-side instance_id exactly matches the Pixiu endpoint ID.
