LLM Gateway: secure AI and your data (without blocking teams)

An LLM Gateway is not just another proxy: it’s where you enforce governance, security, and observability on AI usage—right inside your workflows.

Why a Vibe Coding Agent Must Be Governed

AI coding agents increase delivery speed, but they also magnify risk: data leakage, hallucinations, and policy bypass. Here’s why governance is mandatory—and how Argy Code fits into that framework.

Supply chain security: SBOM, signatures, and attestations in your golden paths

SBOM, signatures, provenance (SLSA)… everyone talks about them. The real question: how do you make them systematic and adopted through your platform?

Incident response: standardize incident routines (and reduce chaos)

PDF checklists don’t save production. Executable routines—triggered at the right time—reduce MTTR and cognitive load.

FinOps: put cost guardrails into the flow (without friction)

Cloud cost explodes mostly when guardrails don’t exist in the workflow. A platform can make good choices the default.

Preview environments & release trains: ship faster without breaking

Preview envs accelerate feedback loops, release trains stabilize shipping. Together they industrialize delivery—if the workflow is standardized.

Multi-cloud: standardize without fragmenting delivery

Multi-cloud rarely fails because of technology—more often because conventions fragment. Golden paths provide a shared interface without denying real differences.

Kubernetes (Day 2): standardized routines to operate at scale

Day 1 (deploy) is easy. Day 2 (operations) is expensive. Standardizing Kubernetes routines via the platform reduces incidents and toil.

From Terraform templates to reusable modules: the right abstraction level

Templates accelerate a project. Modules accelerate an organization. The difference: schema, versioning, guardrails, and supportability.

Secrets: reduce sprawl with detection and secret managers

Secrets leak through code, logs, and prompts. Standardize storage and detect secrets in AI usage and workflows to prevent bypasses.

Developer onboarding: reduce cognitive load with golden paths

Great onboarding means fewer docs to read and more safe paths to follow. Golden paths make developer experience immediate.

Scorecards: drive quality without turning the platform into the police

Scorecards create visibility: standards, gaps, progress. The key is linking gaps to concrete actions inside golden paths.

Audit logs: make traceability usable (not just stored)

Traceability only matters when it is structured, queryable, and linked to actions. The platform is the natural place to do this.

Platform as a Product: Adoption & Impact

An internal platform is not a project. It's a product. Without adoption, there is no impact—and without impact, there is no platform.
