Hi @olkwwuah!
Two parts to your ask — broker listing and allowlisting your devshard creator address — so a quick note on how each works:
Allowlisting
gonka15uuzwv36ln8mlsmu7ccg6rr3ntj9mh7t9x6n8u. Operating your own devshard gateway means becoming an on-chain escrow operator, which requires your creator address on the governance-controlled allowlist (devshard_escrow_params.allowed_creator_addresses). That path is open, but inclusion is an on-chain governance decision — no single operator or org adds an address unilaterally — so it goes through a governance request. On top of the allowlist, you'd own the escrow lifecycle yourself: funding, rotation, v1/v2 state roots, and settlement.Broker listing. The community broker directory is a curated, non-exhaustive set from the early rollout and isn't being actively expanded.
If you'd rather not wait on a governance vote, there are independent, managed gateways in the community that already operate under whitelisted wallets and expose a plain OpenAI-compatible endpoint — so you can start serving inference now without your own allowlisting. One such community option is OpenBroker (run by Gonka Labs): https://github.com/gonka-ai/gonka/discussions/1363
OpenBroker is independent third party, not part of the core protocol
