agentgateway

agentgateway is a separate project that proxies your agents’ LLM, MCP and A2A traffic. Evals.si works alongside it but does not require it.

Evals.si

After the fact: online evaluation. The gateway exports OpenTelemetry traces to Evals.si with an ingest key that can only write traces to one project. An OnlineEvalPolicy selects traffic with CEL (by route, backend, MCP tool or A2A agent), samples it, runs cheap checks first and a judge only after they pass, alerts on windowed metrics and promotes bad traces into a dataset.

In flight: inline guardrails. Evals.si speaks the gateway’s two inline protocols directly:

Traffic agentgateway feature Evals.si endpoint
LLM calls ai.promptGuard.request/response[].webhook POST /guardrails/{project}/{guardrail}/request and /response
MCP calls mcpGuardrails.processors[] of kind remote agentgateway.dev.ext_mcp.ExtMcp on the main port

Each guardrail redacts, evaluates with any installed pack and then passes, masks or blocks. Audit mode reports what it would block before you enforce it.

Both sides can trust the same OIDC issuers and tokens, and both select traffic with CEL. Evals.si access rules use agentgateway’s allow, deny and require form.

agentgateway’s configuration keys change between versions. Treat the snippets in these guides as the shape of the setup and check them against the docs of the version you run.
