Vomit

Vomit is a local, offline tool that converts Claude's token output into shorter English text by piping it through a separate local LLM. It can install as a Go binary, configure a connection to a local LLM through `vomit init`, and use Claude hooks to replace the displayed output with the processed version via `vomit scrub -claude`.

Overview

Vomit also provides a non-invasive tail mode that runs alongside Claude, listing session identifiers and translating the latest or a specified session with `vomit tail`. The repository states that it has no external dependencies or telemetry; the local model sees only what Claude communicates, not its actions or files. It warns that the model may hallucinate, processing can be slow, and the project has been tested only on Mac. It is licensed under GNU GPLv3.
