Show HN: GoRoute – Native Go LLM Gateway for Coding Agents (< 12MB RAM)

Sub-10ms Latency • < 12MB RAM • 35 CLI Agents • A2A Protocol • Zero Node.js Overhead

Quickstart • Architecture • Supported Agents • Benchmarks • Features • Cheatsheet

GoRoute is an ultra-fast, single-binary LLM gateway engineered specifically for developers using autonomous AI coding agents (OpenCode, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, Aider, Cline, etc.).

Instead of running bloated Node/Electron proxies that consume 600MB to 1.5GB of RAM, GoRoute delivers identical multi-provider pooling, Google Antigravity OAuth rotation, Anthropic-to-OpenAI protocol normalization, and response caching inside a tiny 5.1MB footprint.

npm install -g goroute

npx goroute setup opencode
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ziuus/goroute/main/install.sh | bash
brew install ziuus/goroute/goroute
go install github.com/ziuus/goroute/cmd/goroute@latest
goroute auth login antigravity

Securely links your Antigravity accounts into GoRoute's encrypted local storage (~/.goroute/vault.json).

Auto-configure your favorite agent with one command:

goroute setup opencode

goroute setup claude

goroute setup codex

goroute setup all

Run GoRoute as a background service:

goroute autostart enable

goroute status

Or launch any agent with zero configuration using the universal proxy injector:

goroute run opencode
goroute run claude
goroute run aider --model openai/claude-3-7-sonnet

Tested on Linux x86_64 under 500 concurrent streaming requests:

goroute setup automatically configures paths, headers, authentication keys, and provider manifests for:

Universal Multi-Protocol Gateway : #

POST /v1/chat/completions (OpenAI format + SSE chunks) #

POST /v1/messages (Native Anthropic format +content_block_delta SSE streaming) #

POST /api/chat (Native Ollama emulation) #

GET /mcp (Model Context Protocol native SSE server) #

GET /.well-known/agent.json &POST /api/a2a/tasks (A2A Protocol v0.3) #

Zero-Alloc In-Memory Cache :

• Repeated agent queries (e.g. title generation, linters, duplicate prompts) hit the internal cache and return X-Cache: HIT with0ms latency and0 upstream tokens .
• Repeated agent queries (e.g. title generation, linters, duplicate prompts) hit the internal cache and return

DuckDuckGo Web Search & Readability Scraper :

• Built-in POST /v1/web/fetch andGET/POST /v1/search with zero API keys required. Converts fetched HTML to clean GitHub-flavored Markdown.
• Built-in

Smart Quota Cascade & Multi-Account Pools :

• Dynamically rotates across accounts with configurable strategies: Priority / Failover ,Round-Robin , andFair-Share .
• Automatically isolates accounts on HTTP 429 quota exhaustion or 402 billing limits with proactive token cooldowns.
• Dynamically rotates across accounts with configurable strategies:

Context Pruning & Token Optimization :

• Single-pass $O(N)$ integer pruning algorithm trims duplicate prompt prefixes and keeps multi-turn transcripts within upstream limits without dropping active agent instructions.
• Single-pass
