Why we included this project
Teams that already rely on Claude Code's autonomous loop but wince at Anthropic's subscription can keep the same terminal workflow and point it at DeepSeek V4 Pro, OpenRouter, or Fireworks instead. The wrapper works by setting the environment variables Claude Code already reads, so file editing, bash, subagent spawning, and long agentic runs behave the same; only the model answering the API calls changes. The CLI also has a pricing comparison and a latency benchmark across providers, and you can switch backends mid-session without restarting, which helps when a routine task can use a cheap model and a hard reasoning problem still needs Opus. It's a practical way to cut per-token spend without giving up the UX your team already knows.
