Platform lead builds an access profile
- Which models and MCP servers the team can reach
- Token budget limits and reset cadence
- Set once in the admin console — applies to every developer in the team

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="ar_payments_abc123..."
# All approved models available through one endpoint Keys are created and scoped to a team profile - access is bounded by what that profile permits. No more shared team keys where you can't tell who used what. If a developer leaves, their key is revoked. Nobody else's workflow breaks.
Your Anthropic API key, your OpenAI API key, your Vertex credentials — none of them are distributed to developers. The gateway holds them and forwards requests. Developers only ever see their Agent Router key.
When Anthropic rotates a key or you add a new provider, you update one place — the gateway config. Every developer's code continues to work unchanged. No broadcasting new credentials, no updating .env files across 200 repositories.
The org decides which models are approved. Developers see only that list, not every model every provider offers.
Lock teams to a specific version so provider updates don't silently change agent behavior. Update the profile when you're ready to upgrade.
Payments gets Claude. Data engineering gets Gemini for long context. Each profile is independent, managed centrally.
All token usage is billed through your org's Agent Router account. One invoice, fully attributed by team, agent, and developer. No individual provider accounts, no expense reimbursements.
Developers with Claude Max or Pro subscriptions route through Agent Router using their existing Anthropic OAuth token. Anthropic authenticates and bills them directly. Agent Router routes and observes — no token margin added, no new billing relationship.
Some teams bill centrally. Others use passthrough with existing subscriptions. All traffic flows through the same gateway, all usage appears in the same attribution logs. Finance sees one view regardless of billing mode.
