24 alternatives to A CLI to use any model in your coding agent
Hi everyone, I've been working on a CLI tool that can help to easily run any model in claude, Codex, Gemini, Pi, and OpenCode. It's also an API keys manager, supports multiple providers or OpenAI/Claude/Gemini accounts. You can add openrouter, poe, Vercel AI gateways etc. It has a built-in provider that is free to all, which is using Deepseek-V4, no login or API key required, add your own when you're ready. After installation you can try claude instantly (No config, no login): aivo claude Hope it's useful to someone.

1Code▲569Just to clarify the background a bit. This project wasn’t planned as a big standalone release at first. On January 16, Ollama added support for an Anthropic-compatible API, and I was curious how far this could be pushed in practice. I decided to try plugging local Ollama models directly into a Claude Code-style workflow and see if it would actually work end to end. Here is the release note from Ollama that made this possible: https://ollama.com/blog/claude Technically, what I do is pretty straightforward: - Detect which local models are available in Ollama. - When…

As I started to use Claude Code to do more random tasks I realized I could basically build any CLI tool and it would use it. So I built one that controls the browser and open-sourced it. It should work with Codex or any other CLI-based agent! I have a long term idea where the models are all local and then the tool is privacy preserving because it's easy to remove PII from text, but I'd definitely not recommend using this for anything important just yet. You'll need a Gemini key until I (or someone else) figure out how to distill a local version out of that part of the pipeline. Github link:…

Gemini CLI▲224A simple weekend project, to check if chat conversation could be used on CLI. Uses Google Gemini's gemini-2.0-flash model. Configs will make it nicer, but I wanted to keep it simple to test and launch for now. I can add things for you :) Please give it a try!

Clink lets you use the coding agents you already pay for (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Z.ai GLM) to build → live-preview → ship apps in an isolated container. No token purchases, no extra cost for coding. Just link your existing Claude/OpenAI/Gemini account and start building and deploying instantly. Why we built this: Claude Code is our go-to for coding, but it lacked preview + deploy capabilities. We didn't want to pay Lovable again just for that. Different agents excel at different tasks - Claude Code for versatility, Codex for complex work, GLM for speed. We needed one…

Parallel Code▲159I kept running into a structural problem with AI coding tools. You try one agent. It makes changes. You try another. Now you're manually diffing branches and cleaning up experimental commits. The tools are powerful, but the workflow isn’t designed for comparison. So I built Parallel Code. It runs Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI natively (no API wrapper, no feature abstraction), but isolates each agent in: its own terminal its own Git worktree its own feature branch The workflow becomes: Spawn N worktrees Assign one AI agent per worktree Let them implement independently Compare diffs Merge…

Clai allows you to pipe files into practically any AI model, local or remote, and then stores the output as conversations locally. Supports tooling calls for many convenient bash tools, also supports writing local files. You can also pre-prompt with the new profiles, which enables convenient swapping between custom tool + prompt configurations. Personally I use clai practically all the time. It auto-generate unittests in seconds, can analyze huge complex codebases, interpret confusing output + syntax, etc. It's a tool, like a hammer, so you need to know how to use it. But once you do it…

I've been working on CloudRouter, a skill + CLI that gives coding agents like Claude Code and Codex the ability to start cloud VMs and GPUs. When an agent writes code, it usually needs to start a dev server, run tests, open a browser to verify its work. Today that all happens on your local machine. This works fine for a single task, but the agent is sharing your computer: your ports, RAM, screen. If you run multiple agents in parallel, it gets a bit chaotic. Docker helps with isolation, but it still uses your machine's resources, and doesn't give the agent a browser, a desktop, or a GPU to…

I built a plugin that lets Claude Code delegate work to Gemini CLI. I started this after finding myself reaching for Gemini more often on long context repo work. I have been especially liking Gemini’s codebaseinvestigator for long context. This is inspired by openai/codex-plugin-cc. Code Review, adversarial review. Under the hood its Gemini CLI over ACP Would love feedback from people using Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or ACP. I am especially curious whether this feels useful outside my own workflow. Its a great combo with Opus 4.7 + Gemini 3.1 workflows

Code▲20Hey HN, Today we're launching Code, a community-driven, open-source coding agent for your terminal. It's a fork of OpenAI's codex with a focus on developer ergonomics and local control. Key features: - Browser integration – attach to your Chrome via CDP or use a built-in headless browser. You can browse pages, run the CLI in a browser session, and even take screenshots from the terminal. - Multi-agent commands – /plan, /solve and /code orchestrate multiple models (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to propose and implement solutions, with consensus or race options. - Diff viewer – see…

Obsidian plugin that connects to CLI agents you already have installed. No built-in LLM integration, no API keys to configure in the plugin. It spawns your tool as a child process, pipes vault context into each prompt, and streams responses into a chat panel. Supports Claude Code, Opencode, and any custom binary via a generic adapter. Adding a new agent is a single file. Free, proudly Open Source (MIT licensed). Would love feedback on this for anyone that that tries it out.

Hello HN, we are thrilled to share with you in preview BrowserCode: A FOSS web app to run TUI agents (such as Claude Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI and the like) fully in the browser. This first release focuses on Gemini CLI and Claude Code will follow soon. BrowserCode is released under the Apache License, version 2.0. BrowserCode is based on BrowserPod (https://browserpod.io), an in-browser WebAssembly-based code sandboxing technology that can currently run Node.js, python, git, bash and many other command line tools. This will further expand to Ruby / Rails, Go, Rust and…
