# OLP — Open LLM Proxy

A personal- and family-scale multi-provider LLM proxy. One HTTP endpoint, many subscriptions behind it, automatic routing, automatic fallback, content-addressed caching — so your IDEs and family clients keep working as long as *any* of your subscriptions has quota left.

> **Status:** v0.4.0 shipped (2026-05-26) — Phase 1 multi-provider proxy core (v0.1.0 + v0.1.1) + Phase 2 multi-key auth + audit + owner gating + keygen CLI (v0.2.0) + Phase 3 Dashboard + audit query layer + daily audit rotation (v0.3.0) + Phase 4 Operator + Client UX (v0.4.0): SSE heartbeat / `olp` Node CLI + `olp doctor` framework / `olp-connect` zero-config LAN setup / `/health.anonymousKey` opt-in / `/olp` Telegram-Discord plugin / 6-IDE integration docs. Phase 5 scope is open — candidates per ADR 0010 § Out-of-Phase-4-scope: `/v1/messages` (gated on ADR 0009 P0 outcome + named family CC user), context-window-exceeded fallback trigger, per-(provider, model) live stats. Sections marked _placeholder_ land alongside the relevant phase of work (see [phase plan](#phase-plan)).

## Why OLP

On 2026-05-14, Anthropic announced (effective 2026-06-15) that `claude -p`, the Agent SDK, and third-party agent traffic move out of the Pro/Max subscription pool into a separate fixed monthly Agent SDK Credit pool. [OCP](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp), OLP's predecessor, was a proxy around a single CLI — its core assumption was *"subscription = unlimited within rate limits"*. That assumption breaks for Anthropic on the effective date.

The structural response is to stop relying on one provider's subscription terms remaining favourable. OLP spreads risk across multiple providers whose subscriptions still include CLI/programmatic use, routes intelligently between them, and caches aggressively so every request that does spawn a CLI counts.

OLP is **not**: a commercial multi-tenant SaaS; an enterprise gateway competing with LiteLLM / OpenCode / CLIProxyAPI on breadth; a model-capability router ("route to the smartest model" — you pick the model); a conversation-state store (your client handles that).

See [`ALIGNMENT.md`](./ALIGNMENT.md) for OLP's constitution and [`docs/adr/`](./docs/adr/) for the founding ADRs.

## Quick Start

_placeholder — lands with Phase 1._

Anticipated shape:

```bash
# install
npm install -g @dtzp555-max/olp

# run setup (writes ~/.olp/config.json, asks which providers to enable)
olp setup

# start the proxy (default port 4567 since v0.4.0 — moved off OCP's 3456 so
# OLP and OCP can co-host on the same machine. Set OLP_PORT=3456 if you have
# no OCP on the machine and want the old default.)
olp start

# point your IDE at http://localhost:4567/v1/chat/completions with the OLP API key from `olp keys list`.
```

**Family-on-LAN onboarding (D68-D70).** For other devices on the same network, run on the client device:

```bash
# Detects Cline / Continue.dev / Cursor / Aider / OpenClaw installed locally
# and writes per-tool config pointing at the OLP host. Requires `python3`.
olp-connect <olp-host-ip>
```

If the OLP host has `auth.advertise_anonymous_key: true` AND a key was created with `olp-keys keygen --anonymous --advertise`, `olp-connect` picks up the token from `/health.anonymousKey` — zero out-of-band token paste required. See [ADR 0011](./docs/adr/0011-anonymous-key-deployment-context.md) for the trusted-LAN-only invariant.

Per-IDE setup details: [`docs/integrations/`](./docs/integrations/README.md).

## Supported Providers

Source of truth: [`models-registry.json`](./models-registry.json). This table is regenerated from the registry per the [`release_kit`](./CLAUDE.md) overlay; do not edit it out of sync.

OLP distinguishes **Candidate Providers** (declared as intended, not yet pinned) from **Enabled Providers** (authority pin filled + plugin landed + Phase audit passed). The v0.1 founding commit ships **zero Enabled Providers** — enablement is a Phase audit deliverable, not a bootstrap claim. See [`ALIGNMENT.md` § Provider Inventory](./ALIGNMENT.md) for the transition gate.

### Candidate Providers

| Provider key | CLI | Subscription / auth | Anticipated Tier | Anticipated Phase |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `anthropic` | `claude -p` | Pro / Max OAuth (pre-2026-06-15); Agent SDK Credit pool after | D (re-eval post-2026-06-15) | Phase 1 |
| `openai` | `codex exec --json` | ChatGPT Pro OAuth or API key | D | Phase 2 |
| `mistral` | `vibe --prompt --output json` | Le Chat Pro API key | D | Phase 3 |
| `grok` | `grok -p --output-format streaming-json` | xAI Build `xai-...` API key | C | Phase 8+ |
| `kimi` | `kimi -p --output-format stream-json` | Moonshot Kimi API key | C | Phase 8+ |
| `minimax` | TBD | MiniMax Token Plan (¥29+/mo) | B | Phase 8+ |
| `glm` | TBD | Zhipu Coding Plan ($10+/mo) | B | Phase 8+ |
| `qwen` | TBD | Alibaba Coding Plan ($50/mo) | B | Phase 8+ |

**Risk tier guide.** D = permissive / safe (eligible for default-enabled); C = tightening signal, no enforcement history (opt-in); B = service-level key revocation risk (opt-in + consent); A = excluded by default (cannot be opt-in enabled). Tier B providers prompt for explicit consent on first enable and record consent in `~/.olp/config.json`. See [`ALIGNMENT.md` § Risk Tier Framework](./ALIGNMENT.md#risk-tier-framework).

**Excluded by default (Tier A — evidence-backed, pending primary-source pin).** Google Antigravity. See [ADR 0006](./docs/adr/0006-provider-inclusion.md) for the named-prohibition + no-cost-advantage + reinstatement-friction rationale, and for the primary-source pinning follow-up that may force a Tier reconsideration if the Google FAQ language cannot be sourced within 90 days of 2026-05-23.

## Configuration

_placeholder — full configuration reference lands with Phase 4 (fallback engine)._

OLP reads its config from `~/.olp/config.json`. The minimum useful shape:

```json
{
  "routing": {
    "chains": {
      "<requested-model>": [
        { "provider": "<key>", "model": "<provider-model-id>" },
        { "provider": "<key>", "model": "<provider-model-id>" }
      ]
    },
    "soft_triggers": {
      "<provider-key>": { "<trigger>": <threshold> }
    }
  }
}
```

> **Note:** `routing.soft_triggers` thresholds are parsed and stored but have **no runtime effect at v0.1** — the quota polling path (`quotaStatus()` per hop) is deferred to v1.x per [ADR 0004 Amendment 2](./docs/adr/0004-fallback-engine.md#amendment-2--2026-05-24-soft-triggers-deferred-to-v1x-d22). The evaluation logic exists and is tested; only the production data ingestion path is deferred.

Trigger types, fallback safety, idempotency rules, and the full example config land here when Phase 4 ships. See [ADR 0004 (Fallback Engine Semantics & Safety)](./docs/adr/0004-fallback-engine.md) for the design.

---

## API Endpoints

| Endpoint | Method | Phase | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `/v1/chat/completions` | POST | 1 | ✅ Shipped | OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions entry. Internally normalized to IR, dispatched to a provider plugin, response shape converted back. |
| `/v1/models` | GET | 1 | ✅ Shipped | Lists models from `models-registry.json`. |
| `/health` | GET | 1 | ✅ Shipped | Per-provider health snapshot. Phase 2 owner-only-trim: full per-provider details to owner identity; trimmed `{ ok, version }` to guest / anonymous. Gate via `auth.owner_only_endpoints` config. **Optional `anonymousKey` field (D69 / Phase 4, v0.4.0)** appears in both trimmed and full payloads when `auth.advertise_anonymous_key: true` AND `auth.allow_anonymous: true` AND at least one non-revoked guest-tier key has `plaintext_advertise: true` (see [ADR 0011](./docs/adr/0011-anonymous-key-deployment-context.md) for the trusted-LAN-only invariant). Default off — field absent when prereqs unmet. |
| `/dashboard` | GET | 3 | ✅ Shipped (D50 + D51) | Owner-only multi-provider dashboard HTML (4 panels: quota / 24h request stats / 30d spend trend / top fallback chains; 30s poll with visibilitychange pause). Owner-only_block; non-owner identities receive 401. Localhost-bound by default. |
| `/v0/management/dashboard-data` | GET | 3 | ✅ Shipped (D50) | JSON aggregate consumed by the dashboard 30s poll: `{ generated_at, window_24h, cache_hit_24h, quota, spend_trend_30d, top_fallback_chains_24h, cache_stats }`. Owner-only_block. |
| `/v0/management/quota` | GET | 3 | ✅ Shipped (D50) | Per-provider quota snapshot via `provider.quotaStatus()` (subset of dashboard-data; useful for scripted monitoring). Owner-only_block. |
| `/cache/stats` | GET | 3 | ✅ Shipped (D50) | Live in-memory `cacheStore.stats()` (`{ hits, misses, size, inflightCount }` + `generated_at`). Owner-only_block. |

---

## Environment Variables

_placeholder — full table lands per-phase as variables are introduced._

| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `OLP_PORT` | `4567` | HTTP listener port. Moved off `3456` at D60 / v0.4.0 to co-host with OCP — set `OLP_PORT=3456` to restore the pre-D60 default. |
| `OLP_CLAUDE_BIN` | `claude` (from PATH) | Override path to the `claude` binary (Anthropic provider). Useful when multiple `claude` installs are present. |
| `OLP_CODEX_BIN` | `codex` (from PATH) | Override path to the `codex` binary (OpenAI provider). |
| `OLP_VIBE_BIN` | `vibe` (from PATH) | Override path to the `vibe` binary (Mistral provider). |

### `config.json` keys introduced at Phase 4

These live in `~/.olp/config.json` (not env vars) — they're documented here alongside the env-var table for discoverability.

| Config key | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `streaming.heartbeat_interval_ms` | `0` (disabled) | D61 / Phase 4. SSE keepalive comment frames during stream-silent windows. Set `>0` (e.g. `15000` for 15s) when OLP runs behind nginx / Cloudflare / Tailscale Funnel with idle-abort timeouts. |
| `auth.advertise_anonymous_key` | `false` | D69 / Phase 4. When `true`, surfaces an existing guest-tier key's plaintext via `/health.anonymousKey` so `olp-connect <ip>` can self-bootstrap clients on the LAN with zero out-of-band coordination. **Requires `auth.allow_anonymous: true` AND at least one key created via `olp-keys keygen --anonymous --advertise`.** Trusted-LAN-only — see [ADR 0011](./docs/adr/0011-anonymous-key-deployment-context.md). |

### Operator CLI surfaces (Phase 4)

- `olp` (Node CLI at `bin/olp.mjs`): `status / health / usage / models / cache / providers / chain show / logs / restart / keys / doctor`. Run `npx olp --help` for full subcommand reference. `olp doctor --json` emits a machine-readable `next_action.ai_executable[]` payload designed for AI agents to self-repair OLP. See [ADR 0010](./docs/adr/0010-phase-4-charter-operator-and-client-ux.md) § Phase 4 D-day plan and [ADR 0002 Amendment 7](./docs/adr/0002-plugin-architecture.md) (per-plugin `doctorChecks()` contract).
- `olp-connect` (bash at `bin/olp-connect`): zero-config LAN client setup — detects Cline / Continue.dev / Cursor / Aider / Claude Code / OpenClaw and configures each. Run `bash bin/olp-connect --help`. Requires `python3` for JSON parsing.
- `olp-keys keygen --anonymous --advertise`: creates a guest-tier key with the plaintext stored alongside its hash so `/health.anonymousKey` can publish it. Prints an explicit ADR-0011 warning at keygen time.

### Per-provider auth env vars

These variables configure credential discovery for each provider plugin. Setting the correct one for your provider is usually required for OLP to make successful requests.

**Anthropic (`claude -p`)**

| Variable | Default behavior | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` | Searches `~/.claude/.credentials.json` first, then macOS keychain (darwin only) | Directly supplies the OAuth access token. Highest-precedence override; bypasses all credential-discovery logic. Useful in CI/headless environments where the keychain is unavailable. |

**OpenAI Codex (`codex exec --json`)**

| Variable | Default behavior | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `OPENAI_CODEX_AUTH_PATH` | `~/.codex/auth.json` (or `$CODEX_HOME/auth.json`) | Overrides the full path to the Codex auth artifact. When set, no other path is tried; missing or malformed file returns null (no auth). Useful for CI test fixtures. |
| `CODEX_HOME` | `~/.codex` | Overrides the Codex home directory. `$CODEX_HOME/auth.json` becomes the default auth path. Ignored when `OPENAI_CODEX_AUTH_PATH` is set explicitly. |

**Mistral Vibe (`vibe --prompt`)**

| Variable | Default behavior | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `MISTRAL_API_KEY` | Reads `$VIBE_HOME/.env` (default `~/.vibe/.env`) | Directly supplies the Mistral API key. Highest-precedence override per DOCS-2; bypasses `.env` file lookup. |
| `MISTRAL_VIBE_AUTH_PATH` | `~/.vibe/.env` (or `$VIBE_HOME/.env`) | Overrides the full path to the Vibe `.env` auth file. Evaluated only when `MISTRAL_API_KEY` is not set. When set, no other path is tried; missing or malformed file returns null (no auth). |
| `VIBE_HOME` | `~/.vibe` | Overrides the Vibe home directory. `$VIBE_HOME/.env` becomes the default auth path. Ignored when `MISTRAL_API_KEY` or `MISTRAL_VIBE_AUTH_PATH` is set explicitly. |

> **📋 Planned (Phase 2) — not yet read by the codebase:**
> - `OLP_HOME` (`~/.olp`) — Config, providers, keys, cache, logs root. Currently hardcoded to `~/.olp/config.json` in `loadFallbackConfigSync`; the env override path is a Phase 2 config-layer deliverable.
> - `OLP_LOG_LEVEL` (`info`) — Log level filter (`error`/`warn`/`info`/`debug`). `logEvent` currently writes unconditionally; level filtering is a Phase 2 observability deliverable.

See also the [Implementation status](#implementation-status-as-of-2026-05-24) table.

## Response Headers

Every response served through OLP carries:

- `X-OLP-Provider-Used: <provider-key>` — which provider's plugin served the request. On a chain-exhausted response, this identifies the chain's configured primary entry (`chain[0]`), not necessarily the first hop where `spawn()` was invoked — see ADR 0004 Amendment 6 for the v0.1 chain-origin semantics and the v1.x soft-trigger reactivation note.
- `X-OLP-Model-Used: <model-id>` — which model the served provider used.
- `X-OLP-Fallback-Hops: <n>` — number of fallback hops (`0` if served by the primary chain entry).
- `X-OLP-Cache: hit | miss | bypass` — cache layer outcome.
- `X-OLP-Latency-Ms: <ms>` — end-to-end latency observed at the proxy.

If a fallback chain is exhausted, `X-OLP-Fallback-Exhausted` lists the tried providers in order.

---

## IDE Setup

Per-tool setup pages live under [`docs/integrations/`](./docs/integrations/README.md). Index:

| Tool | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| [Continue.dev](./docs/integrations/continue.md) | ✅ Supported | `config.yaml` `apiBase` (not `baseURL`); supports OLP custom headers |
| [Cline](./docs/integrations/cline.md) | ✅ Supported | "OpenAI Compatible" provider; watch Cline issue [#7128](https://github.com/cline/cline/issues/7128) |
| [Cursor](./docs/integrations/cursor.md) | ⚠️ Best-effort | "Override OpenAI Base URL" — known fragile across Cursor updates |
| [Aider](./docs/integrations/aider.md) | ✅ Supported | `OPENAI_API_BASE` env + `openai/` model prefix; no custom-header support |
| [Claude Code](./docs/integrations/claude-code.md) | ❌ Not supported | Anthropic wire format only; OLP serves OpenAI wire format. Use Cline + OLP instead |
| [OpenClaw](./docs/integrations/openclaw.md) | ✅ Supported | Telegram + Discord gateway via [`olp-plugin/`](./olp-plugin/) |

The fastest path is `olp-connect <olp-host-ip>` on the client device — it auto-detects what's installed and writes the per-tool config. See [Quick Start](#quick-start).

---

## Telegram / Discord Usage

OLP ships [`olp-plugin/`](./olp-plugin/) as a native OpenClaw gateway plugin. After install, family members get a read-only `/olp` slash command on whichever chat surfaces OpenClaw exposes (Telegram + Discord today).

**Install:**

```bash
# Option A — OpenClaw CLI
openclaw plugins install /path/to/olp/olp-plugin/

# Option B — symlink (equivalent)
mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/extensions/
ln -s /path/to/olp/olp-plugin/ ~/.openclaw/extensions/olp
```

**Configure:** edit `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` and set the plugin's `apiKey` to an owner-tier OLP token created with:

```bash
npx olp-keys keygen --owner --name=openclaw-bot
```

Use a dedicated bot key — not the maintainer's personal owner key — so revocation is scoped.

```json
{
  "plugins": {
    "olp": {
      "proxyUrl": "http://127.0.0.1:4567",
      "apiKey": "olp_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
    }
  }
}
```

**Restart:** `openclaw gateway restart`.

**Use:** `/olp status`, `/olp usage`, `/olp models`, `/olp health`, `/olp cache`, `/olp providers`, `/olp doctor`, `/olp help`.

**Read-only by design.** Mutating subcommands (`keygen`, `revoke`, `restart`, `logs`) are deliberately NOT exposed via chat — those are SSH-only via the local `olp` CLI. See [`olp-plugin/README.md`](./olp-plugin/README.md#what-you-can-not-do-from-chat-by-design) for the rationale.

## Implementation status (as of 2026-05-26, post-v0.4.0)

Phase 1 closed at v0.1.1 (multi-provider proxy core + pre-Phase-2 cleanup). Phase 2 closed at v0.2.0 (multi-key auth + audit + owner gating + keygen CLI; ADR 0007 § 10 all 11 acceptance criteria shipped). Phase 3 closed at v0.3.0 (Dashboard + `lib/audit-query.mjs` + daily audit rotation; ADR 0008 § 10 all 15 acceptance criteria shipped). Phase 4 closed at v0.4.0 (Operator + Client UX per ADR 0010: SSE heartbeat + `recentErrors[20]` + `/v0/management/status` / `olp` Node CLI + `olp doctor` framework + ADR 0002 Amendment 7 / `olp-connect` bash + `/health.anonymousKey` + ADR 0011 / `olp-plugin/` Telegram-Discord + 6-IDE integration docs). Phase 5 scope is open — candidates per ADR 0010 § Out-of-Phase-4-scope. This table reflects what is currently shipped vs. what is designed for later phases.

| File / artifact | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `server.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | HTTP listener + dispatcher |
| `lib/ir/` | ✅ Shipped | IR definition + serializers (ADR 0003) |
| `lib/providers/anthropic.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | `claude -p` spawn-binary plugin |
| `lib/providers/codex.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | `codex exec --json` plugin |
| `lib/providers/mistral.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | `vibe --prompt` plugin |
| `lib/cache/keys.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | Content-addressed key computation |
| `lib/cache/store.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | In-memory Map (file-backed layout: 📋 Phase 2 storage adapter) |
| `lib/fallback/engine.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | Trigger evaluation + chain advancement (ADR 0004) |
| Soft trigger data path (`quotaStatus()` polling) | 📋 Planned (v1.x) | Evaluation logic shipped + tested; data ingestion deferred per ADR 0004 Amendment 2 |
| `models-registry.json` | ✅ Shipped | SPOT for `(provider, model)` metadata |
| `test-features.mjs` | ✅ Shipped | Comprehensive test suite covering IR, cache, fallback, and integration paths (CI: `test.yml`) |
| `lib/keys.mjs` | ✅ Phase 2 shipped (D44 + D45 + D46) | Multi-key auth core (`createKey` / `validateKey` / `listKeys` / `revokeKey` / `touchLastUsed`) per ADR 0007 §§ 5/6.1/6.3/6.3.5/6.4/9.4 + `loadAuthConfigSync` for `auth.allow_anonymous` / `owner_only_endpoints` / `fallback_detail_header_policy`. Server wires `validateKey` per request, filters chain by `providers_enabled`, fires `touchLastUsed` post-response, trims `/health` payload for non-owner, gates `X-OLP-Fallback-Detail` emission by policy. |
| `bin/olp-keys.mjs` | ✅ Phase 2 shipped (D47) | Keygen CLI per ADR 0007 § 9.1. `npx olp-keys keygen --owner` generates an owner key + prints plaintext token once; `npx olp-keys list` enumerates keys (token_hash redacted); `npx olp-keys revoke --id=X` marks a key revoked. `--olp-home=<path>` overrides `~/.olp/`. |
| `lib/audit.mjs` | ✅ Phase 2 + 3 (D45 append + D52 rotation) | Append-only ndjson audit at `~/.olp/logs/audit.ndjson` per ADR 0007 § 6.2 + § 8. `appendAuditEvent` fires for every `/v1/*` + `/v0/management/*` request (success, 401, 403, 5xx). Warn + 1 retry on append failure; no memory buffer at Phase 2 (forward path). PII excluded. D52 adds synchronous daily rotation per ADR 0008 § 5 — first append after UTC midnight renames live → `audit-YYYY-MM-DD.ndjson`. |
| `lib/audit-query.mjs` | ✅ Phase 3 shipped (D49) | Audit ndjson aggregate query layer per ADR 0008 § 4. 5 functions: `discoverAuditFiles`, `readAuditWindow`, `aggregateRequests`, `topFallbackChains`, `spendTrendDaily`, `cacheHitRateWindow`. In-memory cross-file scan; PII guard at output. Consumed by `/v0/management/dashboard-data`. |
| `dashboard.html` | ✅ Phase 3 shipped (D50 stub + D51 full UI) | Owner-only multi-provider dashboard per ADR 0008 § 6. 4 panels (quota / 24h request stats / 30d SVG sparkline / top fallback chains). Vanilla HTML+JS+fetch (no build step). 30s page poll with `document.visibilityState` pause. Served by `/dashboard` route owner-only_block. |
| `bin/olp-audit-rotate.mjs` | ✅ Phase 3 shipped (D52) | External audit rotation cron tool per ADR 0008 § 5.2. `npx olp-audit-rotate [--olp-home=<path>]`. Idempotent + safe alongside the in-server first-append trigger. |
| `docs/provider-caveats.md` | 📋 Planned (Phase 3+) | Lossy-translation reference; for now documented inline in each plugin header |
| `docs/openai-spec-pin.md` | ✅ Shipped (D30) | OpenAI spec snapshot for annual audit; v0.1 baseline pinned 2026-05-24 |
| `docs/alignment-audits/` | 📋 Planned | Output directory for annual alignment audits (first audit: 2027-05-14) |
| `scripts/migrate-from-ocp.mjs` | 📋 Planned (Phase 7) | OCP → OLP migration tool |
| `setup.mjs` | 📋 Planned | Setup wizard / initial config |

### Known limitations

Behaviors that work correctly at personal/family scale but have ratified follow-ups for a v1.x sprint. Single landing page: [`docs/v1x-roadmap.md`](./docs/v1x-roadmap.md).

- **Streaming-path singleflight ✅ shipped (D57 + D58, 2026-05-25).** `cacheStore.getOrComputeStreaming(...)` mirrors the buffered-path `getOrCompute` and resolves the TOCTOU window between peek and spawn ([issue #16](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/olp/issues/16)). Two concurrent identical streaming requests share one CLI spawn via tee fan-out; late joiners receive accumulated replay + the live tail; per-client backpressure (`PER_CLIENT_QUEUE_CAP=1MB`) protects against slow consumers; full-disconnect aborts the source CLI via AbortController. New `X-OLP-Streaming-Inflight: source | attached` header annotates the role. New `cache_status: 'streaming_attached'` audit value tracks the singleflight win. Authority: [ADR 0005 Amendment 8](./docs/adr/0005-cache-cross-provider.md), v1.x roadmap #1.
- **Soft triggers configured but inert.** `routing.soft_triggers` in `~/.olp/config.json` is honored by the engine's evaluation logic but `quotaStatus()` polling is not wired (ADR 0004 Amendment 2). A startup warning fires if the field is non-empty so the inert state is visible.
- **Multi-key auth + owner gating + keygen CLI shipped at v0.2.0 (D44 + D45 + D46 + D47).** `lib/keys.mjs` (core), `lib/audit.mjs` (audit), owner-vs-guest `/health` payload trimming + `X-OLP-Fallback-Detail` policy gating, `bin/olp-keys.mjs` (keygen CLI). All 11 ADR 0007 § 10 acceptance criteria covered. v0.2.0 maintainer-merged 2026-05-25.

- **Phase 3 (Dashboard + audit query layer + rotation) shipped at v0.3.0 (D48–D54).** `docs/adr/0008-dashboard-and-audit-query.md` + `lib/audit-query.mjs` (D49) + 4 owner-only_block endpoints (D50) + `dashboard.html` (D51) + daily audit rotation (D52) + `tried_providers` schema fix (D53). All 15 ADR 0008 § 10 acceptance criteria covered.

- **Phase 4 (Operator + Client UX) shipped at v0.4.0 (D60 → D73).** ADR 0010 (charter) + ADR 0011 (anonymous-key trusted-LAN limits) + ADR 0002 Amendment 7 (provider `doctorChecks()` contract). Default `OLP_PORT` 3456 → 4567 so OLP and OCP can co-host. SSE heartbeat (D61) + `recentErrors[20]` + `/v0/management/status` (D62-D63). `bin/olp.mjs` Node CLI + `bin/olp-keys.mjs` + `lib/doctor.mjs` framework with `next_action.ai_executable[]` (D64-D67). `bin/olp-connect` bash zero-config IDE auto-config + opt-in `/health.anonymousKey` (D68-D70). `olp-plugin/` OpenClaw `/olp` Telegram-Discord plugin (read-only, no chat mutations) + 6 IDE integration docs at `docs/integrations/*.md` (D71-D73). Test count 623 → 696.

  **Bootstrap workflow (D47):** for first-run / production setup:

  ```bash
  # 1. Generate an owner key (prints the plaintext token ONCE — capture it now)
  npx olp-keys keygen --owner

  # 2. Set production config (defaults to allow_anonymous: false)
  # (Edit ~/.olp/config.json to enable providers + chains as usual)

  # 3. Start the server
  npm start

  # 4. Validate the key works (substitute the captured plaintext token)
  curl -H "Authorization: Bearer olp_..." http://localhost:4567/health
  ```

  **Recovery if owner token is lost:** `npx olp-keys keygen --owner --force` revokes the previous owner key + creates a fresh one (plaintext printed once).

  **New env vars consumed at D45:** `OLP_HOME` (override `~/.olp/` location, used by tests + operator deployments); `OLP_OWNER_TOKEN` (synthetic env-owner identity for headless / CI deployments — bypasses filesystem manifest lookup with stable `__env_owner__` keyId).

  **New config block consumed at D45:** `config.json auth.{ allow_anonymous, owner_only_endpoints, fallback_detail_header_policy }`. Default `allow_anonymous: false` (production-off); set true to accept requests without an OLP API key (development / single-user dev mode). Startup emits a warn when `allow_anonymous: true` so the relaxed posture is observable.
- **Provider-level `cacheKeyFields` mask not implemented.** Cache keys include every IR field including ones individual plugins drop at spawn (e.g., Anthropic plugin drops `temperature`). Spurious cache misses possible (extra spawn cost; never spurious hits). Conservative posture documented in [ADR 0005 Amendment 7](./docs/adr/0005-cache-cross-provider.md). Tracked in [v1.x roadmap #5](./docs/v1x-roadmap.md).

## Architecture

OLP is a Node.js (ESM, `.mjs`) HTTP proxy with no build step and minimal dependencies. The high-level shape:

- **Entry surface** — `server.mjs` handles `/v1/chat/completions` and the administrative endpoints. Governed by OpenAI's `/v1/chat/completions` specification as the wire authority. See [`ALIGNMENT.md` § Authorities](./ALIGNMENT.md#authorities).
- **Intermediate Representation (IR)** — `lib/ir/` normalizes between the entry surface and provider-native shapes. The IR is the lingua franca; any extension is an [ADR 0003](./docs/adr/0003-intermediate-representation.md) amendment.
- **Provider plugins** — `lib/providers/<name>.mjs`. Each plugin implements the contract in [ADR 0002 (Plugin Architecture for Providers)](./docs/adr/0002-plugin-architecture.md), spawns its CLI, and translates between IR and provider-native IO.
- **Cache layer** — `lib/cache/` is a content-addressed cache keyed on the 11-field tuple defined in [ADR 0005 § "Cache key composition (v1.0)"](./docs/adr/0005-cache-cross-provider.md#decision) (provider, model, messages, tools, temperature, response_format, cache_control, max_tokens, top_p, stop, tool_choice — as of Amendment 2/D15). Per-key isolation, prompt-caching bypass, chunked stream replay, and singleflight. See [ADR 0005 (Cache Layer Cross-Provider Design)](./docs/adr/0005-cache-cross-provider.md). Current backing store is an in-memory Map; file-backed storage is planned for Phase 2.
- **Fallback engine** — `lib/fallback/` advances a configured chain one provider at a time on configured triggers, never retrying after the first response chunk has been emitted to the client. See [ADR 0004](./docs/adr/0004-fallback-engine.md).
- **Multi-key auth** — `lib/keys.mjs` (📋 planned, Phase 2) will carry OCP's per-OLP-key namespace isolation forward. Each OLP API key will have independent quota, cache namespace, and audit log; each key declares which providers it can access.

## Phase plan

OLP lands in phases. Each phase has its own PR series and Iron-Rule-10 reviewer; this README's placeholders are filled per-phase via the [`release_kit`](./CLAUDE.md) overlay.

The original v0.1 spec (in `~/.cc-rules/memory/projects/olp_v0_1_spec.md` on the maintainer's workstations) planned one provider plugin per phase. The actual Phase 1 execution bundled the three Tier-D provider plugins + cache layer + fallback engine into a single shipped milestone (v0.1.0) followed by a cleanup batch (v0.1.1). The phase numbering below reflects what was actually shipped, not the original per-plugin partition.

- **Phase 0** — Repo bootstrap, `ALIGNMENT.md`, founding ADRs, CI workflows, PR template. ✅ Shipped (2026-05-23).
- **Phase 1** — Multi-provider proxy core: `server.mjs`, IR, three Tier-D provider plugins (Anthropic / OpenAI Codex / Mistral Vibe), cache (D1+D4) + cleanup (D2 bypass / D3 chunked replay / D23 size cap), fallback engine with first-chunk safety + hard triggers + per-hop log observability, IR↔OpenAI translation under Rule 2(b). ✅ Shipped — v0.1.0 (2026-05-24) + v0.1.1 cleanup (2026-05-25, D35–D42).
- **Phase 2** — Multi-key auth (`lib/keys.mjs`) per ADR 0007: opaque OLP API keys, per-key cache namespacing, owner-vs-guest tier for header gating, audit ndjson (`lib/audit.mjs`), `/health` payload trimming + `X-OLP-Fallback-Detail` emission gating, `OLP_OWNER_TOKEN` env override, keygen CLI (`bin/olp-keys.mjs`). ✅ Shipped — v0.2.0 (2026-05-25, D43-A → D47). All 11 ADR 0007 § 10 acceptance criteria covered.
- **Phase 3** — Dashboard + audit query layer + daily audit rotation per ADR 0008: in-memory ndjson aggregate query layer (`lib/audit-query.mjs`), 4 owner-only_block management endpoints (`/dashboard` + `/v0/management/dashboard-data` + `/v0/management/quota` + `/cache/stats`), multi-panel `dashboard.html` with 30s poll, synchronous daily audit rotation + `bin/olp-audit-rotate.mjs` cron tool, `tried_providers` schema fix (D45 P2 deferral). ✅ Shipped — v0.3.0 (2026-05-25, D48 → D54). All 15 ADR 0008 § 10 acceptance criteria covered.
- **Phase 4 (planned)** — Per-key per-provider auth artifact mapping (ADR 0007 § 12 deferral), audit query rotation/retention policies, SQLite hybrid migration (ADR 0007 § 13 trigger), provider-cost weights for spend trend.
- **Phase 4+ (v1.x roadmap, triggered as needed)** — Full deferred-work tracker: [`docs/v1x-roadmap.md`](./docs/v1x-roadmap.md). Includes streaming-path singleflight ([issue #16](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/olp/issues/16) + ADR 0005 Amendment 8 design ratified), soft-trigger reactivation (ADR 0004 Amendment 2), `/health` activeSpawns integration, provider-level `cacheKeyFields` mask, streaming-path SPAWN_FAILED salvage.
- **Phase N (opt-in)** — Tier-2 / Tier-C provider plugins (Grok / Kimi / MiniMax / GLM / Qwen) per [ADR 0006](./docs/adr/0006-provider-inclusion.md); provider-native protocol endpoints; deterministic triggers. Triggered by tier-2 demand, not on the bootstrap path.

Full spec (decision rationale, open questions, risks): `~/.cc-rules/memory/projects/olp_v0_1_spec.md` on the maintainer's workstations. Phase 2 kickoff handoff: `~/.cc-rules/memory/handoffs/2026-05-25-phase-2-kickoff.md`.

## Migration from OCP

_placeholder — `scripts/migrate-from-ocp.mjs` lands with Phase 7 (📋 planned, not yet authored)._

Anticipated user-facing flow (target: <5 minutes):

1. Stop OCP (`launchctl bootout` the OCP service or `ocp stop`).
2. Install OLP.
3. Run `olp migrate-from-ocp` — copies `~/.ocp/keys/` to `~/.olp/keys/` and points provider plugins at OCP's existing auth artifacts where applicable.
4. Start OLP. Clients pointing at port 4567 (or 3456 with `OLP_PORT=3456`) keep working; their existing OLP API keys remain valid. **Note (v0.4.0+):** default port moved from 3456 → 4567 so OCP and OLP can co-host during migration; set `OLP_PORT=3456` if you want the pre-D60 default.

OCP's cache directory is *not* migrated: OLP's cache key format includes provider+model and warms cold naturally. OCP enters maintenance mode (stability fixes only) when OLP v0.1 ships; new development happens in OLP.

OLP evolved from [OCP (Open Claude Proxy)](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/ocp). OCP's per-key isolation model, cache-layer design (D1–D4), dashboard, and alignment-constitution discipline are all carried forward. The structural generalization from single-CLI to multi-provider is what makes this a new project rather than an OCP minor version — see [`ALIGNMENT.md` § Reference: How OCP's `cli.js` discipline maps to OLP](./ALIGNMENT.md#reference-how-ocps-clijs-discipline-maps-to-olp).
