katanemo/plano — Rust AI-native proxy and data plane for agentic apps
trending-repo
HIGH
Plano is an Apache-2.0 licensed Rust proxy and data plane purpose-built for agentic applications. It provides built-in orchestration, safety rails, observability, and intelligent LLM routing so developers stay focused on agent logic. Trending with 6,098 stars, last commit March 27, 2026 (same day — very active). Architecture: Rust core proxy with LLM-aware routing, rate limiting, prompt injection protection, and OpenTelemetry-compatible observability. It sits between agents and LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) providing a unified gateway.

ODS Impact
High relevance to ODS ADLC pipeline: Plano could serve as the API gateway layer between ODS Claude Code agents and Anthropic's API, providing rate limiting, observability, cost tracking, and safety controls. The Rust implementation aligns with the ODS tech stack. The Apache-2.0 license is compatible with ODS. Evaluate as a replacement or complement to the current API Gateway (Traefik) for AI/LLM traffic. Particularly relevant as ODS scales agent usage.
