What's New

Newer agentgateway adds API-key budgets and Gemini support with breaking changes to token counting and policy merging.

Breaking Changes

  • LLM token counts now include prompt-cache tokens, changing normalized input metrics.
  • JWT issuer and audience claims are now required when configured.
  • Backend and attached LLM policies now merge field by field instead of replacing.
  • Cross-namespace route delegation now requires a ReferenceGrant.
  • Managed API key metadata uses the `agentgateway.dev/` prefix.

New Features

  • API-key-scoped budgets and model access for standalone deployments.
  • Native Gemini APIs and broader format conversion between Anthropic and OpenAI.
  • Enhanced guardrails for tool calls and OpenAI inline moderation.
  • Deeper Agent Substrate integration and SPIFFE Workload API identities.
  • Richer dynamic forward proxy and TCP support.

Improvements

  • Better LLM log views with in-depth request and response details.
  • UI, traces, logs, metrics, and `agctl` provide clearer views of multi-turn agent activity.
  • Deeper Agent Substrate integration.

Upgrade Notes

Update JWT issuer and audience claims, migrate API key metadata to the `agentgateway.dev/` prefix, and add ReferenceGrants for cross-namespace delegation. LLM token metrics will change to include cache tokens, and policy merging behavior has shifted.
