# LLM Gateway


Direct LLM Gateway access through the VM metadata endpoint is deprecated and
is unavailable to accounts created on or after 2026-08-03 00:00 UTC. Use the
default [LLM integration](/docs/integrations-llm) at
`https://llm.int.exe.xyz` instead.

The `exe.dev LLM gateway` provider source within an LLM integration remains
supported. It provides exe.dev-managed access to Anthropic, OpenAI, Fireworks, and xAI models, plus
Deepgram recorded-audio transcription. Your subscription includes a monthly token allocation, and
you can purchase additional tokens at [https://exe.dev/user/shelley](https://exe.dev/user/shelley).

See the [full list of supported models](/llm-gateway-models) ([JSON](/llm-gateway-models.json)).

New accounts get a default [LLM integration](/docs/integrations-llm) named
`llm`, attached to `auto:all`. That integration exposes managed models at
`https://llm.int.exe.xyz` inside attached VMs, with no provider API keys stored
on the VM.

The gateway is only for exe.dev-managed model access. If you want to use your
own provider API key or a ChatGPT subscription, configure those as provider
sources on an [LLM integration](/docs/integrations-llm); those sources are not
part of the gateway or its token allocation.

Use the [LLM Integration guide](/docs/integrations-llm) to configure provider
sources, connect a ChatGPT subscription, attach the integration to VMs, or use
the integration with Shelley, Codex, Claude Code, and curl.

## Shelley

[Shelley](/docs/shelley/intro) automatically discovers attached LLM
integrations through the `reflection` integration. On new accounts, Shelley
sees the default `llm` integration and shows its managed models in the
`Model:` picker without custom model setup.

If Shelley does not show the integration models, see
[Use with Shelley](/docs/integrations-llm#use-with-shelley).

## Deprecated direct endpoint

Do not use the legacy metadata endpoint:

```
http://169.254.169.254/gateway/llm/<provider>
```

Use the default LLM integration instead:

```
$ curl https://llm.int.exe.xyz/v1/models
```

See the [LLM Integration guide](/docs/integrations-llm#use-from-a-vm) for
provider-specific examples.
