SUMMARY AI summary by gpt-5-mini
Claude Gateway is a macOS local gateway that lets Claude Desktop and Claude Code forward requests to any Anthropic-compatible upstream provider via a local HTTP endpoint. It maps local Claude-visible aliases (e.g., claude-opus-4-7, claude-sonnet-4-6, claude-haiku-4-5) to upstream models, rewrites the top-level model field, and keeps your provider API key only on the gateway. Who uses it: people who want a provider-neutral Anthropic-compatible upstream for Claude clients without running LiteLLM/uv or a separate proxy, and who want a native macOS UI for status, logs, requests, and diagnostics. Key features: native manager window, automatic Claude Desktop/Code config sync, per-user LaunchAgent, model routing and default routes, one-file config import/export, bundled vision-provider MCP server for image inspection, request history, logs, issue views, runtime diagnostics. Requirements: macOS 14.4+, an Anthropic-compatible provider API key, and Claude Desktop or Claude Code.
