I built an LLM gateway to make AI coding workflows cheaper

I kept running into the same problem with AI coding tools: the cost wasn’t just model pricing, it was all the waste around the workflow.

The same repo context gets resent constantly, tool-heavy loops burn extra round trips, and expensive models end up handling turns that don’t need them.

So we built Lynkr, a Node-based LLM gateway focused on coding workflows.

The main levers are:
- prompt caching
- MCP Code Mode
- tier routing across providers

The goal isn’t just “support more models.” It’s to keep the workflow developers already want while making the cost structure underneath it much better.

Would love blunt feedback from anyone who’s dealt with multi-provider AI setups, coding agents, or runaway token costs.
