> see FSFs "an agpl reverse proxy must first serve a notice it's AGPL before proxying onward"

Can you link to that requirement?

That says a proxy could use a landing page to do that, not that it has to do it that way.

The underlying requirement of providing source to users is firm, though. How else will a reverse proxy prominently make a statement to networked users?

Yes, correct. If this is their best shot at a solution, it doesn't bode well for their interpretation of the AGPL allowing any UX-friendly version of this, let alone a normally functioning API Gateway.
