Claude Code on any model, with a budget
gremlord wraps Claude Code in a thin local router. Same TUI, same tools, but the model behind it can be Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI, Ollama, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Every token is priced, and hard budgets stop the spend. Free, MIT licensed.
Hey Product Hunt, Maor here - I built gremlord (a gremlin that minds your AI spend).
Claude Code is the best agent harness I've used, but it only talks to Anthropic and it never tells you what a session cost. gremlord fixes both without forking it: a small local router points the unmodified claude binary at any provider (OpenAI, xAI, Ollama, vLLM, OpenRouter, anything OpenAI-compatible), prices every token as it streams, and enforces budgets that actually stop the next request instead of warning you after.
My favorite part is the routing: a cheap classifier sends each turn to the smallest model that can actually hold it, so planning lands on a big model and mechanical edits land on a cheap one. Small numbers, honestly shared: no telemetry, 66 raw downloads mostly from my own updates, so ~10-20 genuine installs I can verify - but 56 unique git cloners in the last two weeks against 13 stars. People are trying it.
It's free and MIT licensed: https://github.com/gremlord/grem.... Ask me anything - I'll be here all day.
