Claude Gateway™ — Credential Infrastructure for AI Agents
Centralized credential storage with token refresh, rotation, and provider-specific OAuth handling. Reduce per-app secret sprawl from dozens of env vars to four — and make security review tractable.
The Problem
Every AI agent needs ten OAuth tokens. Multiply by every app.
Modern AI agents talk to a lot of services — Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, GHL, Stripe, Slack, your CRM, your data warehouse, your ad platforms. Each one wants OAuth, and each OAuth flow has its own quirks: GHL issues company-level tokens that have to be exchanged for location-scoped tokens, Microsoft rotates the refresh token on every use, Google wants offline access scopes set just right.
Storing OAuth refresh tokens in every app's env vars works until you have eight apps. Then it's a security audit nightmare, a constant rotation problem, and a blast-radius disaster — one leaked .env file compromises every integration.
Claude Gateway centralizes the entire problem. Credentials live in the gateway. Apps call the gateway for short-lived access tokens. Refresh, rotation, and provider quirks all happen server-side. Per-app gateway API keys give you blast-radius isolation. Every app's env-var surface shrinks to four variables.
How It Works
Credentials live in the gateway
Every third-party credential — Google OAuth, GHL company tokens, Microsoft tokens, Stripe keys, arbitrary API keys — is stored in the gateway. Apps never see refresh tokens.
Apps request short-lived tokens at runtime
Your application calls the gateway with a gateway API key, gets back a fresh, short-lived access token. The gateway handles refresh, rotation, and provider-specific dances (GHL location-token exchange, Microsoft rotating refresh tokens).
Audit, rotate, and revoke from one place
Every credential is centrally auditable. Rotate Google client secrets once in the gateway — every app gets the update on the next call. Revoke a gateway API key to immediately cut access for a compromised app.
