> Is there a good CLI like Claude Code but for Gemini / other models

I built an open source CLI coding agent that is essentially this[1]. It combines Claude/Gemini/OpenAI models in a single agent, using the best/most cost effective model for different steps in the workflow and different context sizes. The models are configurable so you can try out different combinations.

It uses OpenRouter for the API layer to simplify use of APIs from multiple providers, though I'm also working on direct integration of model provider API keys.

It doesn't have a Neovim plugin, but I'd imagine it would be one of the easier IDEs to integrate with given that it's also terminal-based. I will look into it—also would be happy to accept a PR if someone wants to take a crack at it.

If you're open to something CLI-based, my project Plandex[1] offers git-based branching (and granular versioning) for AI coding. It also has a sandbox (also built on git) that keeps cumulative changes separate from project files until they're ready to apply.

I wish all these companies the best and I understand why they’re forking, but personally I really don’t want my main IDE maintained by a startup, especially as a fork. I use Cursor, and I’ve run into a number of bugs at the IDE level that have nothing to do with the AI features. I imagine this is only going to get worse over time.

Exactly right.

I think there’s a general misconception out there that open sourcing will cannibalize your hosted product business if you make it too easy to run. But in practice, there’s not a lot of overlap between people who want to self-host and people who want cloud. Most people who want cloud still want it even if they can self-host with a single command.

Neither do I, but it's the best solution I've found so far. It beats checking models/prices manually every day to see if anything has changed, and it works well enough in practice.

But yeah, some kind of deterministic way to get alerts would be better.
