[!TIP] Local First: All configurations and sessions are stored in your home directory. No telemetry, no cloud accounts required.

[!IMPORTANT] This project is currently in early stage. We are seeking developers to help build the local agent ecosystem!

What is Codex Mate?

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by managing multiple local AI agents? Each has its own config format, session storage, and skills directory.

Codex Mate offers a unified control plane to bring order to the chaos. It's a local-first CLI + Web UI designed to manage Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, KiloCode, OpenClaw, and Pi seamlessly.

What's So Special?

Unlike simple wrappers, Codex Mate acts as a Local Agent Bridge:

• Unified Session Browser: Search, inspect, filter, and export local sessions across Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, CodeBuddy Code, and Pi from one place.
• OpenAI-Compatible Bridge: Use Codex with any OpenAI-compatible UI by normalizing the Responses API; the built-in Codex conversion also fills and normalizes Codex fingerprint headers such as User-Agent, Version, OpenAI-Beta, and Originator so upstream providers see an official Codex CLI-shaped request.
• Claude Provider Bridge: Connect Claude Code to OpenAI Chat Completions-compatible providers and Ollama through the built-in local Claude-compatible proxy.
• OpenCode Provider Control: Manage OpenCode provider/model selection with a CodexMate-owned provider store under ~/.codexmate, projecting only the active provider into native OpenCode config to avoid polluting or deleting user-owned settings.
• KiloCode Config Bridge: Configure KiloCode providers from the CLI or Web UI, writing to ~/.config/kilo/kilo.jsonc while preserving stored API keys.
• Pi Provider Config: Manage Pi providers from the Web UI with lossless round-trip writes to ~/.pi/agent/models.json, auto-fetched remote model lists, and one-click default provider/model switching via ~/.pi/agent/settings.json.
• Provider Health Cleanup: Probe local Codex and Claude provider routes, surface failed configs in one modal, and bulk-clean selected broken providers without touching healthy or protected entries.
• Skills Marketplace: A local-first market to share and import skills between different agent apps.
• Prompt File Editor: Unified editor for global and project-level CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md with auto-detection of project paths, plus a shared preset pool for reusable prompts.
• Task Orchestrator: Plan and execute complex tasks with dependency tracking.

Current Progress

Feature	Status	Description
Provider Management	✅	Switch providers/models for Codex, Claude, OpenCode, KiloCode, OpenClaw, and Pi
Live Agent Sync	✅	Real-time monitoring of Codex/Claude config & status
Session Browser	✅	Search, preview, filter, and export sessions across Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, CodeBuddy Code, and Pi
Usage Analytics	✅	Visualize message trends and top projects
Local Skills Market	✅	Cross-app import/export of agent skills
Task Queue	✅	DAG-based task execution and logs
OpenAI Bridge	✅	Convert Codex Responses API to standard OpenAI format and attach/normalize Codex fingerprints in the built-in conversion
Claude Provider Bridge	✅	Connect Claude Code to OpenAI Chat Completions-compatible providers and Ollama via the built-in Claude-compatible proxy
OpenCode Provider Store	✅	Keep multiple OpenCode providers in ~/.codexmate while projecting only the selected provider to native OpenCode config
KiloCode Config Bridge	✅	Configure KiloCode through codexmate kilo config or the Web UI, writing provider URL/model/API key data to ~/.config/kilo/kilo.jsonc
Pi Provider Config	✅	Manage Pi providers in the Web UI writing to ~/.pi/agent/models.json (unknown fields preserved) and switch the default provider/model in ~/.pi/agent/settings.json
Provider Health Check	✅	Probe local Codex/Claude provider routes, highlight failed configs, and bulk-remove selected broken providers safely
Prompt Templates	✅	Reusable prompt plugins with variables
Prompt File Editor	✅	Edit global and project-level CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md with auto-detect, path switching, and a shared preset pool. Applying a preset only updates the editor; save manually to write the file.
MCP Integration	✅	Expose local tools and resources via MCP stdio
Auto Update	✅	Quick update CLI via codexmate update

Quick Start

Install via Homebrew (macOS / Linux)

brew tap SakuraByteCore/codexmate
brew install codexmate

Requires Node.js (brew install node if not present).

Install via npm

npm install -g codexmate
codexmate run

If the default Web UI port 3737 is unavailable, Codex Mate automatically tries the next ports (3738, 3739, ...). To force a fixed port, set CODEXMATE_PORT:

CODEXMATE_PORT=8080 codexmate run

Windows PowerShell:

$env:CODEXMATE_PORT=8080; codexmate run

Install via curl (Standalone)

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SakuraByteCore/codexmate/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

Supported Agents

• Codex: npm install -g @openai/codex
• Claude Code: npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
• Gemini CLI: npm install -g @google/gemini-cli
• CodeBuddy: npm install -g @tencent-ai/codebuddy-code
• KiloCode: npm install -g @kilocode/cli (kilo / kilocode)
• OpenCode: install from the official OpenCode docs
• OpenClaw: see the OpenClaw repository
• Pi: sessions are discovered from ~/.pi/agent/sessions; provider config lives in ~/.pi/agent/models.json and the default provider/model in ~/.pi/agent/settings.json
