Route agentgateway LLM traffic to Google Gemini models.

Configure Google Gemini as an LLM provider in agentgateway.

Configuration

You can add the model in the UI or in your configuration file.

To add the model in the UI, follow these steps. The steps create the same model as the Config file tab.

  1. Set your API key in the GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable. The UI checks that the variable exists when you save the model.

    export GEMINI_API_KEY='<your-api-key>'
  2. Create a configuration file with an empty llm section, and start agentgateway in the same terminal. Without an llm section, the UI does not show the LLM > Models page.

    cat > config.yaml <<'EOF'
    # yaml-language-server: $schema=https://agentgateway.dev/schema/config
    llm:
      models: []
    EOF
    agentgateway -f config.yaml
  3. Open LLM > Models, such as http://localhost:15000/ui/llm/models, and click Add model.

  4. From the Provider dropdown, select Gemini.

  5. Keep the default gemini/* in the Incoming model match field.

  6. For the Provider API key, select Env var, and enter GEMINI_API_KEY.

  7. For Outgoing model, keep Strip gemini/. This option removes the gemini/ prefix before the request is forwarded. To send every request to one model instead, select Explicit, and enter the model name. This option sets params.model.

    Add model drawer with Gemini selected as the provider, gemini/* as the incoming model match, and GEMINI_API_KEY as the environment variable for the provider API key
    Add model drawer with Gemini selected as the provider, gemini/* as the incoming model match, and GEMINI_API_KEY as the environment variable for the provider API key
  8. Click Save model.

Whether the UI can save depends on your storage mode. For more information, see Save changes from the UI.
