The AI gateway's openid-connect plugin still carried the cluster-wide dataplane-template-defaults issuer, https://keycloak.sttlab.eu/realms/sttlab. Every other domain gateway overrides it to the lab realm; this one was missed. The plugin therefore fetched JWKS from a realm that never signed the token and rejected it with "invalid signature", which reaches the caller as a bare 401 "Authentication required". Combined with the missing llm-proxy audience in the realm, the OIDC path on this gateway had never authenticated anyone — only the key-auth path LibreChat uses was ever exercised.

platform-llm
Platform-owned llm bounded context — Gateway infrastructure and the
shared LLM proxy in one repo. Never split per functional domain, and never
split between infra/routing here either: both are owned by the same
(platform) team, unlike catalog's dataplane-catalog/catalog-api split
(feature team vs. platform team, a real access boundary that doesn't exist
for this domain).
What it does
Fronts OpenRouter (https://openrouter.ai) via one proxy route
(/llm/v1/chat/completions) — the client's own model field selects among
any OpenRouter-hosted model, not just a fixed set Kong picks.
Active policies:
ai-rate-limiting-advanced, token-based, both global (across all callers) and per-client (per authenticated consumer).ai-prompt-guard(regex) andai-semantic-prompt-guard(embedding-based, backed by Redis Stack) for prompt-injection/jailbreak safeguarding.- Two-tier auth:
key-auth(static, shared key) for chatbot UIs that can't do OIDC on their outbound LLM connection (LibreChat and similar tools — structural limitation of that whole category, not fixable client-side),openid-connectfor agents built in-house. Either succeeds; a request passing neither is rejected (request-terminationon the fallback anonymous consumer).
Not yet active: PII redaction (ai-sanitizer) — needs a private Kong
Cloudsmith registry image and an AI Gateway Enterprise entitlement, blocked
pending that access. Everything else in this repo is unaffected.
