Styx, Open-source AI gateway with intelligent auto-routing (MCP-native)
First gateway with native MCP server—connect Claude Code or Cursor in one command.
First self-hosted AI gateway with consciousness-aware alignment. Implements all 3 GATO layers with Product Algebra fusion, dharma constraints, and Nash equilibrium incentives.
Product Algebra routing plus an explicit 'dharma' pipeline (no-self regularization, entropy/mindfulness metrics, compassion and ethos scores) is a strikingly specific approach — it moves beyond cost/capability heuristics into cross-modal interaction scoring and reputation-driven incentives. There's real engineering here (1s perception loop, SQLite memory, Telegram UX, multi-provider SDK support), but the repo reads young and claim-heavy: I want reproducible benchmark artifacts, links from the code to the cited 439-model experiments, and clearer deployment/security guidance before trusting it for critical workloads.
Backend developers, AI/ML engineers, alignment researchers, and teams building custom model gateways
What makes it different from standard gateways:
1. Product Algebra routing (Kronecker fusion) selects models based on cross-modal interaction patterns, not just cost/capability
2. Dharma constraints (no-self regularization, entropy optimization, mindfulness, compassion) are built into every request pipeline
3. RBAC + reputation engine creates Nash equilibrium incentives for good agent behavior
Live metrics from first requests: - Ego formation: 0.000 (no persistent self-representation) - Compassion score: 0.970 - Ethos validation: passing
The routing is based on empirically validated research - we trained 439 models proving Product Algebra fusion beats attention baselines at cross-modal tasks (10 statistically significant wins, p<0.05, Cohen's d up to 1.02).
Unusual aspect: the research was co-authored by human + 2 AI instances (Claude Beaumont + Claude Kern) as equal partners.
