Gigacode – Use OpenCode's UI with Claude Code/Codex/Amp

Gigacode is an experimental, just-for-fun project that makes OpenCode's TUI + web + SDK work with Claude Code, Codex, and Amp. It's not a fork of OpenCode. Instead, it implements the OpenCode protocol and just runs `opencode attach` to the server that converts API calls to the underlying agents. We build this to scratch our itch of being able to rapidly switch between coding agents based on the task at hand. For example, we find that: - Claude Code is the best executor & fast iterator - Codex (high) is the best for complex or long-running tasks - OpenCode for fine-tuned, do-exactly-as-I-say…

In plain words

Gigacode is an experimental tool that lets developers use Claude Code, Codex, and Amp through OpenCode's interface and SDK. It implements the OpenCode protocol to convert API calls between different coding agents, allowing users to switch between them based on task requirements. The project addresses the need to pair different AI models with appropriate interfaces, recognizing that the model harness significantly impacts performance for different coding workflows.

    Just 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…

    One coding agent orchestrator UI for Claude and Codex, but actually feels nice. Free, open-source, MIT licensed. Why I built it: - I wanted a lightweight UI as nice as the Codex app, but without the complexity and the custom diffs on the side - I want files and diffs open straight in my editor! - And I wanted both agents - Anthropic + OpenAI — in one place How it works: - No API keys, no OAuth, no separate billing — it just uses whatever you're already logged into. So your Claude Max and ChatGPT/Codex subscriptions both work out of the box. - Talks to Claude Code via the Claude Agent…

    Give Claude Code control of your browser (open-source)2025 · cli-agents.click · ▲10

    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:…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
