CLIProxyAPI

77/100open sourceexplicit relation

CLIProxyAPI is an open-source Go proxy server that wraps Gemini CLI, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Grok Build, and related CLI account flows behind OpenAI/Gemini/Claude-compatible API endpoints. Use it carefully: it can touch OAuth sessions, auth files, logs, and provider account policies, so production use needs credential and ToS review.

CLIProxyAPI is 100% free and open-source software under the MIT license. It functions as a local translation proxy for developer CLI credentials with zero licensing cost; upstream AI provider subscription or API fees apply.Review →

Understands entire codebases via automatic context gathering, edits multiple files, runs shell commands, and manages Git workflows autonomously. Supports CLAUDE.md for persistent project instructions, integrates with VS Code and JetBrains, and runs on current Claude models such as Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5 for complex architecture work. Built for terminal-first developers.GhosttyGPU-accelerated terminal emulator written in Zig by Mitchell Hashimoto (HashiCorp co-founder). Native UI rendering on macOS and Linux. Supports ligatures, true color, Kitty graphics protocol, and splits/tabs. Configurable via a simple key-value file with sensible defaults. Open-source with 20K+ GitHub stars and a focus on correctness, speed, and minimal resource usage. Growing as a modern alternative to iTerm2, Alacritty, and WezTerm.Grok BotGrok Bot is SpaceXAI's beta workspace for persistent AI teammates that use apps, websites, files, terminals, plugins, and MCP on a user-scoped cloud computer. Bots can learn routines, coordinate in parallel, and, when enabled by team policy, launch Cursor Cloud Agents that work on code in isolated environments and return pull requests and verification artifacts.CodexCodex is OpenAI's coding agent for software development across the Codex app, editor, terminal, and cloud tasks. It helps write, review, debug, refactor, and automate code, with ChatGPT plan access for managed surfaces and API-key usage for CLI, SDK, and IDE workflows. The open-source CLI and SDK support local repository work, while cloud features add GitHub review, Slack/Linear integrations, worktrees, skills, MCP, and automations.WarpGPU-accelerated terminal built in Rust, now evolved into an Agentic Development Environment (ADE) used by 700K+ developers. Features block-based output navigation, AI command suggestions via the Oz orchestration engine, multi-line editing with syntax highlighting, and a built-in code editor with LSP support. Available on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
