Also from the author of claude-code-proxy: aven, one
queue for every project, with a keyboard-driven TUI for you and a CLI for your
agents.

Why?

Claude Code remains an excellent coding harness, with strong tools, skills,
hooks, subagents, and editor integrations. claude-code-proxy keeps that client
experience while translating its Anthropic API traffic for subscription-backed
provider services.

One local process handles provider authentication, model-based routing,
protocol translation, streaming responses, and diagnostics. The built-in
monitor shows sessions, active and recent requests, errors, token usage, and
throughput.

Quick start with Codex

Install on macOS or Linux:

Or use the release installer:

Windows and other prebuilt artifacts are available from
GitHub Releases.

Sign in with a ChatGPT Plus or Pro account, not an OpenAI API account:

Start the proxy in one terminal:

For a background service, use claude-code-proxy serve --no-monitor and attach
from another terminal with claude-code-proxy monitor. Closing an attached
dashboard leaves the proxy running.

Start Claude Code in another:

See Getting started
for the complete first session.

Optional Codex image generation and editing can reuse the same ChatGPT login:

The opt-in Images API returns base64 image data and consumes the signed-in account's image quota. Image prompts and payloads are excluded from traffic captures. See the HTTP API for generation and edit schemas.

Providers

Run claude-code-proxy models for the current catalog or
claude-code-proxy models --full for every dynamic Cursor alias.

The proxy accepts local requests without client authentication. It binds to
