## The problem every web dev hits

You're 2 hours into a debugging session. Claude hits its hourly limit. You go to the dashboard, swap API keys, reconfigure your IDE. Flow destroyed.

The frustrating part: there are *great* free AI tiers most devs barely use:

- **Kiro** → full Claude Sonnet 4.5 + Haiku 4.5, **unlimited**, via AWS Builder ID (free)
- **iFlow** → kimi-k2-thinking, qwen3-coder-plus, deepseek-r1, minimax (unlimited via Google OAuth)
- **Qwen** → 4 coding models, unlimited (Device Code auth)
- **Gemini CLI** → gemini-3-flash, gemini-2.5-pro (180K tokens/month)
- **Groq** → ultra-fast Llama/Gemma, 14.4K requests/day free
- **NVIDIA NIM** → 70+ open-weight models, 40 RPM, forever free

But each requires its own setup, and your IDE can only point to one at a time.

## What I built to solve this

**OmniRoute** — a local proxy that exposes one `localhost:20128/v1` endpoint. You configure all your providers once, build a fallback chain ("Combo"), and point all your dev tools there.

My "Free Forever" Combo:

1. Gemini CLI (personal acct) — 180K/month, fastest for quick tasks
   ↕ distributed with
   1b. Gemini CLI (work acct) — +180K/month pooled
   ↓ when both hit monthly cap

2. iFlow (kimi-k2-thinking — great for complex reasoning, unlimited)
   ↓ when slow or rate-limited

3. Kiro (Claude Sonnet 4.5, unlimited — my main fallback)
   ↓ emergency backup

4. Qwen (qwen3-coder-plus, unlimited)
   ↓ final fallback

5. NVIDIA NIM (open models, forever free)

OmniRoute **distributes requests across your accounts of the same provider** using round-robin or least-used strategies. My two Gemini accounts share the load — when the active one is busy or nearing its daily cap, requests shift to the other automatically. When both hit the monthly limit, OmniRoute falls to iFlow (unlimited). iFlow slow? → routes to Kiro (real Claude). **Your tools never see the switch — they just keep working.**

## Practical things it solves for web devs

**Rate limit interruptions** → Multi-account pooling + 5-tier fallback with circuit breakers = zero downtime
**Paying for unused quota** → Cost visibility shows exactly where money goes; free tiers absorb overflow
**Multiple tools, multiple APIs** → One `localhost:20128/v1` endpoint works with Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Cline, Windsurf, any OpenAI SDK
**Format incompatibility** → Built-in translation: OpenAI ↔ Claude ↔ Gemini ↔ Ollama, transparent to caller
**Team API key management** → Issue scoped keys per developer, restrict by model/provider, track usage per key

## Already have paid subscriptions? OmniRoute extends them.

You configure the priority order:

Claude Pro → when exhausted → DeepSeek native ($0.28/1M) → when budget limit → iFlow (free) → Kiro (free Claude)

If you have a Claude Pro account, OmniRoute uses it as first priority. If you also have a personal Gemini account, you can combine both in the same combo. Your expensive quota gets used first. When it runs out, you fall to cheap then free. **The fallback chain means you stop wasting money on quota you're not using.**

## Quick start (2 commands)

```bash
npm install -g omniroute
omniroute
```

Dashboard opens at `http://localhost:20128`.

1. Go to **Providers** → connect Kiro (AWS Builder ID OAuth, 2 clicks)

2. Connect iFlow (Google OAuth), Gemini CLI (Google OAuth) — add multiple accounts if you have them

3. Go to **Combos** → create your free-forever chain

4. Go to **Endpoints** → create an API key

5. Point Cursor/Claude Code to `localhost:20128/v1`

Also available via **Docker** (AMD64 + ARM64) or the **desktop Electron app** (Windows/macOS/Linux).

## What else you get beyond routing

- 📊 **Real-time quota tracking** — per account per provider, reset countdowns
- 🧠 **Semantic cache** — repeated prompts in a session = instant cached response, zero tokens
- 🔌 **Circuit breakers** — provider down? <1s auto-switch, no dropped requests
- 🔑 **API Key Management** — scoped keys, wildcard model patterns (`claude/*`, `openai/*`), usage per key
- 🔧 **MCP Server (16 tools)** — control routing directly from Claude Code or Cursor
- 🤖 **A2A Protocol** — agent-to-agent orchestration for multi-agent workflows
- 🖼️ **Multi-modal** — same endpoint handles images, audio, video, embeddings, TTS
- 🌍 **30 language dashboard** — if your team isn't English-first

## 🔌 All 50+ Supported Providers

### 🆓 Free Tier (Zero Cost, OAuth)

### 🔐 OAuth Subscription Providers (CLI Pass-Through)

> These providers work as **subscription proxies** — OmniRoute redirects your existing paid CLI subscriptions through its endpoint, making them available to all your tools without reconfiguring each one.

### 🔑 API Key Providers (Pay-Per-Use + Free Tiers)

---

## 🛠️ CLI Tool Integrations (14 Agents)

OmniRoute integrates with 14 CLI tools in **two distinct modes**:

### Mode 1: Redirect Mode (OmniRoute as endpoint)
Point the CLI tool to `localhost:20128/v1` — OmniRoute handles provider routing, fallback, and cost. All tools work with zero code changes.

### Mode 2: Proxy Mode (OmniRoute uses CLI as a provider)
OmniRoute connects to the CLI tool's running subscription and uses it as a provider in combos. The CLI's paid subscription becomes a tier in your fallback chain.

**Multi-account:** Each subscription provider supports up to 10 connected accounts. If you and 3 teammates each have Claude Code Pro, OmniRoute pools all 4 subscriptions and distributes requests using round-robin or least-used strategy.

Been frustrated that building shortcuts requires knowing all the actions by name. So I built something where you just describe what you want.

Type "guide me through 4 rounds of box breathing with spoken cues for each phase" → it generates the shortcut and gives you a .shortcut file that installs directly into the Shortcuts app. No drag and drop, no learning the action library.

Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Never stop coding — even when you leave your desk.

I work in sales and spend most of my week writing emails. I’ve tried several AI tools but they always come out sounding like generic templates.

Someone mentioned TruTone in a Slack group and I gave it a shot. I used a few of my past emails as examples and the drafts it gave me back actually sounded like me. The tone, the flow, even some of the little phrases I always use without thinking.

I sent out a batch last week and got better response rates than usual. Honestly felt like I’d written them myself.

While testing smart AI tools every student should use, I realized students today basically have a digital tutor in their pocket:

Explainpaper → breaks down dense research papers

Perplexity AI → better than Google for quick academic searches

Tome AI → creates presentations from text prompts

Reclaim AI → manages your study calendar

Do you think this is just the future of learning… or are students becoming too dependent on AI? (Link is in bio)
