One-command demo so the gateway can be exercised end-to-end without a GPU or a real model download: - demo/mock-ollama/ — tiny FastAPI service emulating Ollama (/api/tags, /api/chat + /api/generate NDJSON streaming with realistic prompt_eval_count and eval_count on the final frame, /api/embed, /api/show, /api/version). Non-root multi-stage Dockerfile, never published (internal network only). - docker-compose.demo.yml — postgres + redis + mock-ollama + gateway, with PLAYGROUND_ENABLED=true and ./playground mounted read-only at /app/playground. Mirrors the prod posture (mock-ollama not exposed). - demo.sh — brings the stack up, waits on /healthz, creates a demo tenant with allow_all_models and a fresh API key via the bootstrap CLI inside the container, then prints the key, the playground URL, and five ready-to-paste curl commands (SSE chat, NDJSON chat, /v1/models, a 401, a 403 /api/pull). ./demo.sh --down tears everything back down with volumes. - playground/index.html — single-file dark-themed UI served same-origin by the gateway at /playground (CORS-free). Per-endpoint About card with method/ auth/streaming badges, a real description, sample request body, sample response, and a footer note. Live SSE/NDJSON rendering of the response. A live, copyable curl box that mirrors exactly what Run sends. Run + Refresh are visibly gated until an API key is in the field; the Base URL is force-pinned to location.origin three times to defeat browser autofill. - docs/ — API.md (full endpoint reference with curl, streaming formats, error model, SPEC §6.5 response headers), ARCHITECTURE.md (incl. §4.6 discovery + the request lifecycle), DEPLOYMENT.md (Ollama-never-exposed rule, pointing at a real Ollama backend, env reference), THREAT_MODEL.md (SPEC §3 table + the allow_all_models opt-in notes), OPERATIONS.md (key/budget/model/usage runbook + fail-closed table), PLAYGROUND.md. mkdocs.yml (Material theme) wires them together.
neuronetz-gateway
A secure, multi-tenant API gateway in front of an Ollama instance. It is the hot path of the Neuronetz API: every request to the models flows through here, authenticated, rate-limited, budgeted, and audited.
The Ollama backend is never reachable from the public internet. It is bound to an internal Docker network with no published ports. All access is via this gateway, behind TLS terminated by Caddy.
Status: v0.1.0 — in development. See
scope-docs/SPEC.mdfor the full specification andscope-docs/AGENT_PROMPT.mdfor the phased build plan.SPEC.mdis the source of truth.
What it does
- Auth — API keys as Bearer tokens, stored as Argon2id hashes, verified in constant time.
- Multi-tenant — tenants own keys; limits and budgets inherit tenant → key.
- Rate limiting — per-key and per-tenant RPM / TPM / concurrent connections.
- Budgets — daily / monthly / total token budgets, enforced fail-closed.
- Dual API surface — native Ollama (
/api/*) and OpenAI-compatible (/v1/*), both streaming. - Hard-blocked mutations —
/api/pull,/api/push,/api/create,/api/copy,/api/delete,/api/blobs/*always return 403. Not configurable. - Audit log — always-on request metadata; opt-in, TTL'd prompt logging per key.
Administration (dashboards, tenant self-service) lives in a separate service,
neuronetz-console; it is not part of this repository.

├──> Redis (key cache, rate limits)
└──> Ollama (internal network only)
Quickstart (dev)
Requires Docker + Docker Compose. The dev stack runs Postgres, Redis, and the gateway —
no Caddy and no Ollama (so /readyz reports 503 until a real Ollama backend is wired
in; that is expected).
git clone <repo> neuronetz-gateway && cd neuronetz-gateway
cp .env.example .env # adjust if you like; defaults work for local dev
docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build
The gateway runs alembic upgrade head on startup, then serves on http://localhost:8080.
curl -i http://localhost:8080/healthz # -> 200 {"status":"ok"}
curl -i http://localhost:8080/readyz # -> 503 (no Ollama backend in the dev stack)
Production
docker-compose.yml brings up the full stack — Caddy (TLS via Let's Encrypt for
api.neuronetz.ai), the gateway, Postgres, Redis, and Ollama. The ollama service has
no ports: mapping and is reachable only on the internal Docker network. See
docs/DEPLOYMENT.md (added in a later phase) and
ops/caddy/Caddyfile.example.
Managing tenants and keys
Use the bootstrap CLI (Typer). Keys have the form nz_<prefix><secret>; the full key is
printed exactly once at creation and only its Argon2id hash is stored.
neuronetz-gateway create-tenant --name acme
neuronetz-gateway create-key --tenant acme --name prod-server-1
neuronetz-gateway list-keys --tenant acme
neuronetz-gateway revoke-key --prefix nz_abc12345
