Expose CLI agent accounts through an API-compatible local proxy with CLIProxyAPI
Run CLIProxyAPI when an operator needs a local OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Codex, or Grok-compatible API facade over authenticated CLI agent access for repeatable agent and tool integrations.

CLIProxyAPI provides a local proxy server that presents OpenAI-, Gemini-, Claude-, Codex-, and Grok-compatible API endpoints backed by CLI model access. Use it for internal automation where existing CLI-agent authentication needs to be consumed by tools, SDKs, or services that expect an API-compatible endpoint.
What this skill actually does
The repeatable workflow is: install or run CLIProxyAPI, complete the supported local CLI authentication flows, configure provider accounts and routing, point compatible clients at the local endpoint, then monitor account health, model routing, streaming behavior, tool calls, and usage with the documented management APIs or companion dashboards.
Invoke this instead of using the CLI product normally when the workflow needs a programmatic local API bridge, multi-account routing, or one compatibility layer for several agent clients. The scope boundary is the local proxy and account-routing operation. It is not a model marketplace, hosted relay recommendation, generic SDK listing, or permission to bypass provider policies; operators remain responsible for compliant account and credential handling.
