data in a local SQL
The reverse-proxy gateway on ports 80 and 443 is disabled by default, so
starting the management application does not take over those ports. Set
`gatewayEnabled = true` in `conf/app.conf` when you are ready to use the WAF
proxy. On Linux and macOS those ports also need root, so for a first try it is
easier to point `gatewayHttpPort` at a high port such as `8080`.
+### Agent monitoring
+
+Gateway also watches the AI coding agents installed on the machine it runs on:
it discovers installations of agents such as Claude Code, Codex CLI and Cursor,
patches the supported ones with a command hook, and tails their local audit
logs into a live activity view under **Agents** in the web UI.
+
+Discovery reads that machine's user accounts, home directories and package
install paths, so it only ever sees the host Gateway itself runs on. Inside a
container — `docker compose up`, `docker run`, or Podman — Gateway scans the
container's own filesystem, finds nothing, and the **Agents** page stays empty
even though agents are installed on the host. Run Gateway from source or as a
[single binary](#single-binary) on the host to use these features; every other
part of Gateway, the WAF p [...]

### Quick start
From nothing to a request flowing through the gateway, in four steps. No
database server is needed: Gateway creates `./data/casbin-gateway.db` on first
start.
