Why Switchboard

• Your keys stay on your machine. Self-hosted BYOK gateway: provider keys are AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest, business API keys are stored hashed, and prompts/responses are never written to logs.
• Routing, not just proxying. Six strategies — fixed, failover, weighted, latency-first, keyword rules and cost-first — with circuit breaking, timeouts and model-level fallback across providers.
• A real console, not a CLI puzzle. Providers, models, policies, playground, people, audit and pricing in one web UI; also ships as a macOS desktop app with zero Docker/Node requirements.
• Small and auditable. A single Node.js process with only two runtime dependencies (ws, marked). No message queue, no heavyweight framework, no telemetry. Full source is reviewable in an afternoon.

Quick start (5 minutes)

Requirements: Docker + Compose, and Node.js ≥ 22.18 (only used to generate the initial .env).
