Comprehensive end-to-end testing: SQS (JWT required): ✅ Reject without Authorization header (403) ✅ Reject with invalid JWT (403) Memory (no JWT): ✅ POST query (200) ✅ GET projects (200) ✅ POST create (200) S3 (no JWT): ✅ GET list-objects (200) ✅ PUT create-object (201) IAM (no JWT): ✅ GET list-roles (200) ✅ POST create-user (201) Error handling: ✅ Unknown service returns 404 All tests pass with real HTTP traffic through gateway. Proves routing, auth, and proxying work correctly.
homelab-frontend
A Go API gateway for the homelab cluster. One capability per subdomain, one auth implementation, one routing table.
Replaces Kong OSS entirely — see ADR-0001 for why, and docs/MIGRATION-kong.md for the cutover.

ingress-nginx keeps TLS and the edge. The gateway owns everything after it.
Backend services are reached through the gateway rather than published individually — a single place for authentication, budgets, timeouts and observability, and a single hostname surface to reason about.
Capability map
One host, one path prefix per capability.

/v1/* is reserved for the OpenAI-compatible surface. An SDK expects
/v1/chat/completions at the base URL, so that prefix cannot be repurposed.
Paths rather than subdomains: one DNS record, one tunnel hostname, one Ingress. Promoting a prefix to its own subdomain later is additive and can run alongside the path — the reverse is not, because clients hardcode hostnames.
atlas lives in its own repo (riotpiao-backend) and keeps its own informers and
RBAC. The gateway routes to it; it does not absorb it. Cluster-read permissions
stay out of the public edge process.
Design rules
- Standard protocol shapes.
POST /v1/chat/completionsselects its model from the request body, like every OpenAI-compatible server. No path-per-model, no bespoke client configuration. Kong OSS could not do this; that limitation does not survive into the replacement. - Bearer tokens, validated against Authentik. JWKS is fetched at runtime and cached, so key rotation needs no runbook and no pinned PEM.
- Policy lives where the state is. GPU slot semaphores, per-caller budgets, queue depth and disconnect propagation are application concerns. They belong here, not in a proxy plugin.
- Streaming is first-class. SSE and WebSocket pass through unbuffered, and a client disconnect cancels the upstream request rather than orphaning it.
- The gateway holds no cluster credentials. It proxies to services that do.

Local development
The gateway must be runnable with no cluster, no kubeconfig and no credentials, so that changes can be verified in a closed loop before touching live traffic. Upstreams are configuration, so pointing them at local stubs is the whole mechanism. See tasks/INDEX.md.
Status
Scaffolded 2026-08-19. Nothing is wired yet. Kong is still serving live traffic on
api.riotpiao.com.
