auditing-llm-gateway-parity

Audits services/llm-gateway against Insights/ai-gateway and updates services/llm-gateway/PARITY.md from current implementation evidence. Use when either gateway changes auth, attribution, billing, endpoints, providers, models, routing, or metadata; when reviewing a Python gateway change; or when asked to refresh, verify, or report gateway parity. This skill updates the parity record but does not migrate callers.

Auditing LLM gateway parity

Compare the current implementations of both gateways and update services/llm-gateway/PARITY.md. Keep this audit separate from caller migration.

Record source revisions

• Fetch origin/master and record its SHA as the Insights baseline.
• Audit the current working tree, including committed and uncommitted changes relative to that baseline. Do not ignore an in-flight gateway change because it is not on master yet.
• Read the current Insights/ai-gateway main SHA with gh api repos/Insights/ai-gateway/commits/main and record it as the Go baseline.
• If the audit is for an in-flight Go change, inspect that PR branch or working tree relative to main. Treat its contracts as pending until the change merges; do not record them as currently supported.
• Otherwise, inspect an authenticated checkout of Insights/ai-gateway at main.

Audit implementation code. README files and the existing parity table are starting points, not proof.

Inspect each contract

For the Python gateway, inspect:

• services/llm-gateway/src/llm_gateway/api/ for routes and wire behavior
• services/llm-gateway/src/llm_gateway/auth/ for accepted credentials
• services/llm-gateway/src/llm_gateway/products/config.py for trusted product policy, models, and billing
• services/llm-gateway/src/llm_gateway/rate_limiting/ for budgets and limits
• services/llm-gateway/src/llm_gateway/callbacks/ for event attribution
• insights/llm/gateway_client.py and real call sites for required contracts

For the Go gateway, inspect:

• internal/httpapi/routes.go and dispatch packages for API shapes
• internal/auth/ and internal/principal/ for credential and identity policy
• internal/httpapi/admission.go, internal/ledger/, and internal/quota/ for billing and limits
• internal/catalog/, internal/router/, and internal/dispatch/ for models, providers, translation, and failover
• internal/emitter/ and request parsing for attribution and metadata
• docs/product.md for intended and deferred contracts, verified against code

Check both request and response behavior. Matching route names do not prove parity for headers, streaming, errors, timeouts, retries, billing, or emitted events.

Classify the evidence

• ✅ Supported: the Go gateway satisfies the contract.
• ⛔ Blocking: an active use case would lose auth, trusted attribution, billing policy, API, provider, or wire behavior.
• 🔎 Verify: support exists, but a caller must confirm configuration or behavior.

Do not treat caller-supplied telemetry as trusted policy. An ai_product event property does not replace product authentication, authorization, or billing.

Do not treat Python's unbilled flag as an automatic blocker. An internal workload can move to Go with a Insights-owned team credential when debiting that wallet is the intended way to attribute Insights spend. It is blocked only when it must preserve customer-specific billing policy or must debit no wallet.

For each difference, identify at least one affected use-case class. Remove details that do not change a migration decision.

Update the parity record

Update services/llm-gateway/PARITY.md with the evidence:

• Move use cases between supported, blocked, and verify sections.
• Add or remove migration-relevant contracts in the parity map.
• Update the source SHAs and verification date.
• Keep detailed Go design in Insights/ai-gateway.

When a gap closes, name obvious caller classes that are newly eligible to migrate. Do not modify those callers unless the user also asks for migration work. Use /migrating-llm-gateway-callers for that separate job.
