name: ai-gateway description: "Reference for the studio/ai-gateway service — the single shared entry point every other service uses to reach Claude, Gemini, and MiniMax. Use this when any service needs a new AI capability, when adding/editing system prompts or tool definitions, or when changing which provider handles which task."

AI Gateway — Reference

Purpose

One internal service that all other services call for any AI capability. No service (store, bots, dubbing) holds an AI provider API key or calls Claude/Gemini/MiniMax directly. This is what makes "swap providers" or "add logging" a one-place change instead of a three-place change.

Endpoints

POST /ai/chat

{
  "context": "store-chat | store-admin | telegram-fb-ig-dm | fb-ig-comment",
  "message": "user's message",
  "history": [ /* prior turns, optional */ ]
}

• context selects the system prompt AND, for store-admin, the available tools (see medusa-store skill for the tool list)
• Routes to Claude (this is the default chat/agent provider)
• Returns { reply, tool_calls?: [...] }

POST /ai/translate

{
  "context": "dubbing-sorani-to-iraqi",
  "text": "chunk text",
  "duration_seconds": 3.2
}

• Routes to MiniMax (see video-dubbing skill for the prompt spec)

POST /ai/transcribe

{ "audio_url": "...", "language_hint": "ku" }

• Routes to Gemini for Sorani ASR
• Returns { chunks: [{ text, start_time, end_time }] }

POST /ai/tts

{ "text": "...", "voice": "iraqi-arabic-default", "provider": "minimax | chatterbox" }

• provider defaults to minimax; switch to chatterbox once self-hosted (see video-dubbing skill)

System Prompt Registry

Each context value maps to one system prompt, stored as a separate file under studio/ai-gateway/prompts/<context>.md — never inline in code, so non-developers (and other agents) can review/edit prompts without touching application code.

| Context | Used by | Contains | |---|---|---| | store-chat | Store widget | Product catalog, FAQ, store policies (Arabic) | | store-admin | Store admin agent | Tool definitions + Arabic admin persona | | telegram-fb-ig-dm | Bot Bridge | Store knowledge + conversational DM persona | | fb-ig-comment | Comment Bot | Shorter, public brand-voice persona | | dubbing-sorani-to-iraqi | Dubbing, step 2 | Dialect/register translation spec |

Cost Logging (mandatory)

Every request to this service writes one row to the ai_requests or ai_usage_logs table (Supabase): { timestamp, context, provider, model, input_tokens, output_tokens, estimated_cost }. This is the FIRST place the debugger agent should look for any AI-related issue — it shows exactly what was sent/received and what it cost, across every service.

Adding a New AI Capability

1. Does an existing endpoint cover it? (most "new AI features" are just a new context value on /ai/chat)
2. If genuinely new, add an endpoint here — never let another service call a provider directly, even "just this once"
3. Add the system prompt file under studio/ai-gateway/prompts/
4. Add cost logging for the new call path
5. Update the table above
