How thusinh1969/brighto_router works

BrighTO-Router is a self-hosted Rust LLM gateway and model load balancer. Its main workflow accepts a client request, authenticates and applies policy, selects a configured backend, proxies the request, and records usage. The graph also includes the admin portal, protocol translation, and configuration/observability layers. Some endpoint families and integrations are documented in the README but their detailed implementations were not sampled; those are represented at the shared handler boundary.

Main entry points: handlers.rs HTTP handlers · proxy/mod.rs Backend proxy · admin/mod.rs Admin API and portal · config/mod.rs Config loader
