Kong's AI Gateway: one control plane for large language model (LLM), Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent2Agent (A2A) traffic with OAuth2 tool scoping, prompt guards, personally identifiable information (PII) redaction and OpenTelemetry export.
Where it sits
3.3 Gateways (primary): Sits in front of LLM, MCP and A2A traffic and applies authentication, tool-scoping, prompt guard and PII redaction policies configured on its entities.
AI Gateway addresses these challenges with a high-performance control plane that secures, governs, and observes AI-native systems end to end.
captured
Define a single endpoint for any traffic type: LLM, MCP, or A2A.
captured
Scope agent tool calls with OAuth2, so write actions can require tighter access than read actions
