Clodds

OpenClaude is an open-source, terminal-first coding-agent CLI for cloud and local model providers. It connects to OpenAI-compatible APIs, Gemini, GitHub Models, Codex, Ollama, Atomic Chat, and other supported backends, providing prompts, streaming output, Bash and file tools, grep, glob, agents, tasks, MCP, slash commands, web search and fetch, and image inputs for compatible providers. The CLI supports guided provider setup with saved profiles, conversation continuation and forking, detached local background sessions, model-specific agent routing, repository maps based on PageRank-ranked code structure, and a headless bidirectional-streaming gRPC server for integrations, CI/CD pipelines, and custom interfaces. A bundled VS Code extension provides launch integration, in-editor chat, provider-aware controls, and theme support. OpenClaude runs on Node.js 22 or newer, is distributed through npm and an Arch Linux AUR package, and can use local inference or remote APIs. Its repository is licensed MIT for the project's modifications and states that it is an independent community project derived from and substantially modified from the Claude Code codebase, without Anthropic affiliation.

Codeman is a self-hosted web dashboard for running and monitoring AI coding agents. It launches Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Antigravity, Gemini, Pi, or Grok in persistent tmux sessions, with an optional plain shell, and streams their terminals to a browser. Sessions persist across restarts and network drops; idle detection can re-prompt agents, resume them after usage limits reset, and run scheduled jobs, while live floating windows show background agents and subagents. The dashboard is designed for touch devices and includes local echo, QR login, swipe navigation, and push notifications. It can run locally, in Docker, or over SSH, is MIT licensed, runs on the user's machine by default, and states that it has no telemetry.

clawk is an open-source command-line tool that runs AI coding agents in disposable Linux virtual machines instead of directly on the host. It mounts a repository from the host into the guest, keeps host files and keychains outside the VM, forwards the host's SSH agent, and restricts outbound connections with a per-sandbox network allowlist. It supports agents and shells including Claude Code, Codex, pi, and a standard shell; sandboxes can be destroyed and recreated while host-side code and agent conversations remain available, and sessions can be resumed. The repository describes the project as pre-1.0 and subject to breaking changes; allowed destinations and forwarded credentials remain accessible to the agent and can be used to publish data.

CLODEx is an open-source, local-first, zero-trust agentic IDE for long-running software engineering work. It maintains durable tasks with searchable history, workspace-aware context, restart recovery, and continued work across sessions, combining code editing, pending edits, line-level diffs, Git and worktrees, persistent terminal sessions, embedded browsing, screenshots, models, and MCP tools in one desktop workspace. Sensitive actions can require explicit approval and remain reviewable; its governing principle is that model output is input, not authority. CLODEx supports account-backed models, bring-your-own provider keys, compatible endpoints, and local Ollama models, and is available for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Munder Difflin is a free, open-source desktop multi-agent harness that runs multiple terminal-based AI coding agents as coordinated local agents. It wraps agents including Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, Qwen, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot CLI, and custom commands, working with users' existing subscriptions and hourly usage limits. Each agent runs as a real node-pty process and is rendered through xterm.js, while an Electron and React interface displays sessions as avatars on a Pixi.js office floor. A GOD orchestrator called Michael assigns and routes work, adjudicates agent messages, and escalates spending, destructive operations, scope changes, and other configured approvals. Agents coordinate through a local Git-backed hive of plain-file memory, atomic mailboxes, a shared blackboard, and an append-only event log; a markdown-first semantic memory layer supports recall across sessions. Optional Git worktrees isolate parallel agents.
