About CLIProxyAPI
CLIProxyAPI wraps model access from tools such as Gemini CLI, Antigravity, ChatGPT Codex, Claude Code and Grok Build and serves it as a local API. Clients can talk to it using the Chat Completions, Responses, Gemini or Claude protocols.
The idea is to use one protocol to reach all the models you have access to. It suits developers who want to point existing API-based tools at accounts they already use through command-line agents.
Strengths
- Supports several API protocols from one service
- Lets API-based tools reach models used through coding CLIs
- Lightweight service you run yourself
Limitations
- Requires accounts with the upstream AI providers
- Provider terms may restrict this kind of use
Details
- Pricing
- FreeFree and open source under the MIT licence; upstream model access is billed by each provider.
