A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

LLMKit is an open-source AI gateway and SDK suite for cost attribution, budget admission, and request evidence. The gateway reserves estimated spend before provider dispatch. It rejects requests that cannot fit the active budget, then settles admitted reservations to actual usage when the response completes.
The repository also ships local tracking surfaces that do not require an LLMKit account or proxy.
| Surface | Use it when | Package |
|---|---|---|
| Python transport | You want local cost estimates around existing SDK calls | llmkit-sdk |
| CLI wrapper | Your OpenAI or Anthropic client honors its standard base-URL environment variable | @f3d1/llmkit-cli |
| TypeScript SDK | You have an existing key and want sessions, streaming, and gateway access from TypeScript | @f3d1/llmkit-sdk |
| MCP server | You want spend, budget, and local coding-session tools inside an MCP client | @f3d1/llmkit-mcp-server |
| AI SDK provider | You use Vercel AI SDK 6 | @f3d1/llmkit-ai-sdk-provider |
| Gateway and dashboard | You need shared budgets, provider routing, receipts, and analytics | packages/proxy, packages/dashboard |

print(f"${sum(item.total_cost or 0 for item in costs):.6f}")The transport reads provider usage metadata and estimates cost from the bundled pricing catalog. It does not send tracking data to LLMKit.

Gateway examples require an existing LLMKit API key. Account creation and key management are temporarily unavailable while the authenticated service is restored. If you do not already have a key, use one of the local tracking paths above.
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.llmkit.sh/v1",
api_key="llmk_your_key_here",
)
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4.1",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Draft a release note."}],
)<p align="center"> <img src=".github/budget-path.svg" width="100%" alt="LLMKit authenticates each request, reserves its estimated cost, rejects requests over budget before provider dispatch, and settles admitted requests to actual usage." /> </p>
The control path is built around three boundaries:
requests cannot spend the same remaining balance.
provider dispatch may have occurred, failures remain terminal to avoid duplicate spend.
LLMKit cancels upstream reads when a limit is exceeded.
Request receipts bind the admission decision, provider attempt, settlement, and analytics handoff with stable identifiers. Database writes use an outbox, so an analytics outage does not silently erase budget evidence.
{
"mcpServers": {
"llmkit": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@f3d1/llmkit-mcp-server"]
}
}
}Five local tools inspect supported Claude Code sessions and Cline task data without an LLMKit key. Six gateway tools query spend, budgets, keys, sessions, and service health when LLMKIT_API_KEY contains an existing key. Together they expose 11 tools.
The pinned catalog is a bundled reference snapshot, not a live quote. One source file, packages/shared/pricing.json, records the snapshot date and generates the TypeScript, Python, and MCP tables. CI rejects drift between the source and generated files. The public site renders only populated provider tables and displays the source date.
The public comparison endpoint requires no account:
https://api.llmkit.sh/v1/pricing/compare?mode=text-token&models=anthropic%2Fclaude-sonnet-4-6%2Copenai%2Fgpt-4o&input=1000&output=1000&cacheRead=0&cacheWrite=0The endpoint prices only the exact model keys supplied by the caller. It does not search for or recommend the cheapest model. Pricing is an estimate, not a provider invoice. Provider billing rules, model modality, and catalog freshness remain part of the error boundary.
| Claim | Evidence in this repository | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Concurrent budget admission is serialized | Worker fixtures exercise competing reservations, retries, settlement, and recovery | Deterministic local Worker and database proof |
| Retry behavior avoids duplicate dispatch | Idempotency tests cover payload mismatch, pre-dispatch release, and post-dispatch indeterminate state | Provider behavior is simulated in CI |
| Large provider responses are bounded | Success, error, and unterminated SSE fixtures verify rejection and stream cancellation | Bound is per buffered response or SSE frame |
| Pricing artifacts are reproducible | One generator and CI --check path cover all published language tables | Catalog values still require source updates |
| Hosted recovery can be evaluated safely | Guarded staging deploy and proof runners bind an isolated Worker, database, revision, and cleanup journal | A completed hosted concurrency and outage-recovery receipt is not claimed here |
See STAGING_PROOF.md for the isolated hosted proof contract. It deliberately refuses production targets and dirty worktrees.
