Deploy and Host CLIProxyAPI — Secure Release-Tracked

About Hosting CLIProxyAPI

CLIProxyAPI is an open-source compatibility gateway for connecting authorized provider accounts and exposing compatible model APIs. This template packages it as a secure, persistent, release-tracked Railway service.

Why Deploy CLIProxyAPI — Secure Release-Tracked?

The package adds a rootless steady state, loopback-only upstream, pinned management asset, explicit authentication separation, digest-pinned releases, and a tested promotion and rollback controller. Railway supplies HTTPS, secret generation, image builds, health checks, restart policy, metrics, and persistent storage.

Common Use Cases

A private API endpoint for Codex and other compatible clients.
Remote, browser-based provider authorization through a pinned management panel.
One trusted operator managing several authorized provider connections.
A digest-pinned gateway with tested release promotion and rollback.

Dependencies for CLIProxyAPI Hosting

Provider accounts, subscriptions, credentials, and usage charges are not included. Operators must have authorization and follow provider terms.

Deployment Dependencies

The template creates one public service and one /data volume. Railway generates different proxy and administration keys. The proxy key authenticates clients; the administration key protects Management Center and management API operations.

The default is one always-on replica with Serverless disabled. No database, Redis, Bucket, worker, runtime updater, shared credential, or provider account is bundled. Backups contain sensitive authorization state and must be encrypted.
