Caveman Proxy
Byte-safe gateway. Provider usage and catalog-price coverage
A transparent LLM reverse proxy for supported providers. It records provider usage and public-catalog list-price subtotals, adds provider-native cache hints to the upstream request only, and keeps record mode pass-through. Cave Architect turns recorded traffic into a ranked plan. In private development.
Product demo / Caveman Proxy
request-path model · in developmentThe proxy is a drop-in base URL. It reads every request, adds provider-native cache hints to the upstream request only, and never alters the bytes your model sees. In record mode it is pure pass-through.
What it changes is what you can see: provider-reported usage and public-catalog list-price subtotals where coverage is complete. Unknown models remain visibly unpriced rather than displaying $0 as a known price.
