Score: 7.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 8, Utility: 7)

Nenya is a lightweight, zero-dependency AI API gateway in Go that sits between AI coding clients and LLM providers, adding secret redaction, context management, agent routing, and MCP tool integration with transparent SSE streaming. It is interesting for its innovative combination of security hardening (mlock, seccomp, non-root execution) with LLM-specific features like interceptor chains, token budget trimming, and multi-provider fallback routing.
