# OpenProxy: Proxy for OpenAI/Anthropic-compatible APIs
OpenProxy is a lightweight LLM proxy server that seamlessly forwards API requests to OpenAI and Anthropic compatible endpoints with logging, cost tracking, and PostgreSQL integration.

## How to configure?
You should be able to get OpenProxy running with minimal configuration. Follow the steps to get started.
```bash
pnpm install
```
#### Set your environment variables
```bash
export PORT=3007
export OPENAI_UPSTREAM_URL="https://api.example.com/v1"
export ANTHROPIC_UPSTREAM_URL="https://api.example.com/api/anthropic/v1"
export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/database_name"
```
#### Start the server
```bash
# Development mode with auto-reload
pnpm dev
# Production build
pnpm build && pnpm start
```
## Log to PostgreSQL
Every request is logged with comprehensive details to the PostgreSQL database. The table schema is as follows:
```sql
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS llm_proxy (
timestamp TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
request_method VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
request_path VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
provider TEXT,
model VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
completion_tokens INTEGER,
prompt_tokens INTEGER,
total_tokens INTEGER,
cached_tokens INTEGER,
total_cost NUMERIC,
response_time INTEGER,
request_body JSONB,
response_body JSONB,
response_status INTEGER,
provider_url VARCHAR(500),
client_ip INET,
user_agent TEXT,
request_size INTEGER,
response_size INTEGER,
stream BOOLEAN,
temperature REAL,
max_tokens INTEGER,
request_id UUID
);
```
### Cost Calculation
OpenProxy automatically calculates costs based on model and token usage using the Helicone API. You can customize the costs for your own models in `cost.ts`.
## SSRF Warning [Important]
Some clients (e.g. Cursor) may block access to `localhost` or `127.0.0.1` URLs. If you encounter this issue, you can use an external proxy service like `ngrok` to open up your `localhost:3007` port to a public domain. This will enable you to use OpenProxy with such services.
## Using with Claude Code
For example, to use Z.AI or other Anthropic-compatible providers with Claude Code:
```bash
export ANTHROPIC_UPSTREAM_URL="https://api.z.ai/api/anthropic"
export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/database_name"
pnpm dev
```
Configure Claude Code to use the following URL: `http://localhost:3007/anthropic`
## Using with Cursor
For example, to use Z.AI or other Anthropic-compatible providers with Cursor:
```bash
export ANTHROPIC_UPSTREAM_URL="https://api.z.ai/api/anthropic"
export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/database_name"
pnpm dev
```
> Cursor blocks access to `localhost` or `127.0.0.1` URLs by default. You can use an external proxy service like `ngrok` to open up your `localhost:3007` port to a public domain. Refer to the [SSRF Warning](#ssrf-warning-important) for more details.
Configure Cursor to use the following URLs:
1. OpenAI API requests: `http://public-domain.ngrok-free.app/openai`
2. Anthropic API requests: `http://public-domain.ngrok-free.app/anthropic`
## Using with other OpenAI-compatible clients
For example, to use Z.AI or other OpenAI-compatible providers with OpenAI-compatible clients:
```bash
export OPENAI_UPSTREAM_URL="https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4"
export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/database_name"
pnpm dev
# Configure your client to use:
# API Base URL: http://localhost:3007/openai
```
## Metrics Dashboard
OpenProxy includes a lightweight Next.js dashboard for real-time metrics visualization. The dashboard is accessible at `http://localhost:3008`. To run the dashboard, run the following command:
```bash
pnpm --filter dashboard dev
```
