Refactor DeerFlow to use Gateway's LangGraph-compatible API
- Updated documentation and comments to reflect the transition from LangGraph Server to Gateway. - Changed default URLs in ChannelManager and tests to point to Gateway. - Removed references to LangGraph Server in deployment scripts and configurations. - Updated Nginx configuration to route API traffic to Gateway. - Adjusted frontend configurations to utilize Gateway's API. - Removed LangGraph service from Docker Compose files, consolidating services under Gateway. - Added regression tests to ensure Gateway integration works as expected.

#### Startup Modes
|
||||
|
||||
DeerFlow supports multiple startup modes across two dimensions:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Dev / Prod** — dev enables hot-reload; prod uses pre-built frontend
|
||||
- **Standard / Gateway** — standard uses a separate LangGraph server (4 processes); Gateway mode (experimental) embeds the agent runtime in the Gateway API (3 processes)
|
||||
DeerFlow runs the agent runtime inside the Gateway API. Development mode enables hot-reload; production mode uses a pre-built frontend.

> **Gateway mode** eliminates the LangGraph server process — the Gateway API handles agent execution directly via async tasks, managing its own concurrency.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Why Gateway Mode?
|
||||
|
||||
In standard mode, DeerFlow runs a dedicated [LangGraph Platform](https://langchain-ai.github.io/langgraph/) server alongside the Gateway API. This architecture works well but has trade-offs:
|
||||
|
||||
| | Standard Mode | Gateway Mode |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **Architecture** | Gateway (REST API) + LangGraph (agent runtime) | Gateway embeds agent runtime |
|
||||
| **Concurrency** | `--n-jobs-per-worker` per worker (requires license) | `--workers` × async tasks (no per-worker cap) |
|
||||
| **Containers / Processes** | 4 (frontend, gateway, langgraph, nginx) | 3 (frontend, gateway, nginx) |
|
||||
| **Resource usage** | Higher (two Python runtimes) | Lower (single Python runtime) |
|
||||
| **LangGraph Platform license** | Required for production images | Not required |
|
||||
| **Cold start** | Slower (two services to initialize) | Faster |
|
||||
|
||||
Both modes are functionally equivalent — the same agents, tools, and skills work in either mode.
|
||||
Gateway owns `/api/langgraph/*` and translates those public LangGraph-compatible paths to its native `/api/*` routers behind nginx.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Docker Production Deployment

||||

||||
`deploy.sh` supports building and starting separately. Images are mode-agnostic — runtime mode is selected at start time:
