# Session: LLM Gateway Health Check — 2026-05-12

**Agent:** Codex
**Status:** Partial success: gateway works, but not all desktop AI clients are captured.

## Checks Performed

- Read `sync/CURRENT.md` first and treated it as the binding handoff state.
- Checked public gateway surfaces:
  - `/api/dashboard/health`
  - `/v1/models`
  - `/v1/chat/completions`
- Queried dashboard-only endpoints using the dashboard token internally without printing it:
  - `/api/dashboard/providers`
  - `/api/dashboard/subscriptions`
  - `/api/dashboard/requests`
  - `/api/dashboard/request-metrics`
  - `/api/dashboard/clients`
- Checked PM2 status on Erik.
- Checked bridge health for Claude, OpenAI/ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Codex, and Microsoft 365 Copilot.

## Verified Working

- Gateway process is online in PM2.
- Dashboard health returns `ok`.
- Database is connected.
- `/v1/models` returns the configured model list.
- A live smoke request to `/v1/chat/completions` succeeded:

```text
caller: codex-live-gateway-check
model: qwen2.5:14b
response: gateway-check-ok
tokens_in: 83
tokens_out: 4
latency_ms: 8363
```

- The smoke request was immediately visible in dashboard request tracking.
- Daily request metrics were available:

```text
total_requests: 8
total_tokens: 4996
success_rate: 1
estimated_api_cost_avoided: 0.033817
compression_operations: 3
compression_tokens_saved: 25
top_model: qwen2.5:14b
```

## Not Fully Working

- The gateway is not currently capturing every desktop AI interaction.
- Dashboard client detection showed:

```text
codex-desktop: live, 2 tracked requests
claude-desktop: live, 3 tracked requests
microsoft-copilot: running, 0 gateway requests
github-copilot: running, 0 gateway requests
chatgpt: not-connected
openai-compatible: live, 1 tracked request
```

- Codex and M365 bridge URLs are configured to MacStudio LAN addresses:

```text
CODEX_BRIDGE_URL=http://192.168.178.213:3253
OPENAI_CODEX_URL=http://192.168.178.213:3253
M365_COPILOT_BRIDGE_URL=http://192.168.178.213:3257
```

- Erik could not reach either MacStudio bridge during the check:

```text
192.168.178.213:3253 unreachable
192.168.178.213:3257 unreachable
```

- Local Mac checks also showed nothing listening on:

```text
127.0.0.1:3253
127.0.0.1:3257
```

- GitHub Copilot bridge on Erik is online but returns:

```text
auth_required
```

- Microsoft 365 Copilot bridge is configured/running but requires Microsoft Graph auth:

```text
auth_required
Set MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID or M365_COPILOT_ACCESS_TOKEN.
```

## Security Decision

Codex attempted to restart the local Codex bridge on the MacStudio bound to `0.0.0.0:3253`, but the action was rejected by policy because it would persistently expose local Codex subscription access to the LAN via PM2.

Do not work around this. Safer options:

- Start a local bridge bound only to `127.0.0.1` for local-only tests.
- Use an authenticated/restricted tunnel between Erik and MacStudio.
- Bind to LAN only after explicit user approval and a narrow firewall/source-IP rule.

## Conclusion

LLM Gateway itself works and tracks requests that pass through it. It does not currently "take everything" because several desktop/subscription clients are either not routed through the gateway, not authenticated, or their MacStudio bridges are unreachable.

## Next Actions

1. Decide the safe connectivity model for MacStudio bridges:
   - restricted LAN bind,
   - SSH tunnel,
   - VPN-only route,
   - or local-only.
2. Re-authenticate GitHub Copilot bridge.
3. Provide Microsoft Graph app/token for M365 Copilot if that bridge should become functional.
4. Configure actual desktop clients to call `https://llm-gateway.context-x.org/v1` if their tokens should be counted and compressed.
5. Run another smoke test after bridge connectivity is restored.
