What this utility does
CLI Proxy API is a lightweight Windows utility that exposes OpenAI and Gemini language models through a local API layer. It lets you run Gemini's command-line tools and ChatGPT Codex behind a simple HTTP interface so other applications and SDKs can call them like a standard service.
Core capabilities
- Free Windows desktop tool that turns CLI model clients into an API endpoint.
- Ability to maintain and switch among multiple user accounts for flexible workflows.
- Option to toggle between using a local proxy or routing requests to a remote API.
- Seamless compatibility with common SDKs and client programs for straightforward integration.
- Support for wrapping model CLIs so legacy tools can be reused without code changes.
Supported model providers and authentication
- Native handling of OpenAI Codex and support for Claude Code using OAuth flows.
- Recent addition of Qwen Code (the first Chinese model provider supported) to broaden regional options.
- Designed to stay current with newly released models so you can access up-to-date capabilities.
Who benefits from it
This tool is aimed at developers and teams building chatbots, code assistants, or other AI-driven applications who want a simple way to expose model functionality to their software without rewriting integration layers. It’s useful for prototyping, local development, and scenarios where switching between providers or accounts is helpful.
