Could you build this?
Partial While basic LLM proxies are simple, building high-throughput, sub-millisecond reverse proxies with mid-stream token accounting, atomic balance reservation, and precise stream termination requires resilient distributed systems engineering.
What it would actually take: A real production version requires high-performance proxy infrastructure written in Rust or Go using Tokio/Hyper, deployed across globally distributed edge nodes. It requires low-latency state synchronization with Redis/etcd for atomic balance holds, Server-Sent Events (SSE) parsing on the fly without introducing latency, and robust failure recovery for provider dropouts.
