The Token-Efficient Hybrid AI Gatekeeper is a production-grade, multi-tiered AI Infrastructure API gateway designed to act as a financial shield for LLM applications. Built to optimize developer resource management, the system intercepts incoming application workloads and evaluates their logical complexity using an automated routing engine. Simple tasks are seamlessly delegated to a zero-cost local edge compute tier running Ollama. High-complexity reasoning prompts are dynamically scaled up to a remote, premium cloud tier powered by the state-of-the-art Gemma 4 foundation model. By keeping standard workloads local, the proxy gateway prevents unnecessary API budget depletion while preserving premium cloud context for demanding edge cases. The core infrastructure is fully containerized using Docker, utilizing cross-platform host network bridging (host.docker.internal) to achieve an unthrottled 100% batch simulation success rate. The architecture includes an embedded telemetry engine providing automated performance analytics, tracking real-time processing time, token throughput, and exact financial cost-savings.
