Thanks to Kimi for sponsoring this project! Kimi K2.7 Code is an open-source, coding-focused agentic model developed by Moonshot AI, with substantial gains on real-world long-horizon coding tasks and higher end-to-end success across complex software engineering workflows. It also cuts thinking-token usage by approximately 30% compared with K2.6. Inside CCR, Kimi ships as built-in provider presets: import the pay-as-you-go API or the Kimi Code subscription in one click and route your coding agent's requests to Kimi, the subscription endpoint passes straight through natively with no protocol conversion, API endpoints are adapted automatically, and your balance and subscription usage show up right in the CCR dashboard.

CCR already supports Kimi. Visit the Kimi Open Platform (中文站 | Global) to try the API, or explore the cost-effective Coding Plan.

Claude Code Router Desktop is a local gateway and desktop control panel for routing agent requests from Claude Code, Codex, ZCode, and compatible clients to the model provider you actually want to use.

## Why Use CCR - Use one local endpoint for multiple agent tools instead of configuring every client separately. - Route requests with default routing, conditional rules, fallback targets, and request rewrites instead of editing client configuration by hand. - Mix providers without changing your workflow. CCR supports OpenAI-compatible APIs, Anthropic Messages, Gemini Generate Content, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, SiliconFlow, Moonshot, Kimi Code, Mistral, Z.AI, Bailian, and custom providers. - Control cost and reliability with fallback routing, API key rotation, usage statistics, and request logs. ## Features - **Overview dashboard**: inspect system status, usage widgets, account balances, model distribution, and share cards. - **Provider management**: add provider presets or custom endpoints, probe protocol support, test model connectivity, manage credentials, and monitor supported account balances where available. - **Routing rules**: configure default routing, conditional and model-prefix rules, fallback handling, and request rewrites. - **Agent Config**: configure Claude Code, Codex, and ZCode launch entries, models, scopes, and multi-instance app profiles. - **Gateway compatibility**: translate supported client requests through the local CCR model gateway. - **Proxy mode**: capture supported API traffic through a local proxy with optional system proxy integration and network capture. - **Fusion models**: combine a base model with vision, web search, or MCP tools into a reusable selectable model. ## Documentation Read the full documentation at [ccrdesk.top](https://ccrdesk.top/). ## Download And Install 1. Open the [GitHub Releases page](https://github.com/musistudio/claude-code-router/releases). 2. Download the package for your platform: - macOS Apple Silicon: `Claude-Code-Router_-mac-Apple-Silicon-arm64.dmg` or `.zip` - macOS Intel: `Claude-Code-Router_-mac-Intel-x64.dmg` or `.zip` - Windows: `Claude Code Router_.exe` - Linux: `Claude Code Router_.AppImage` 3. Install and launch **Claude Code Router**. 4. On first launch, CCR creates its local configuration database: - macOS/Linux: `~/.claude-code-router/config.sqlite` - Windows: `%APPDATA%\Claude Code Router\config.sqlite` CCR stores runtime configuration in SQLite. A legacy `config.json` is read only once for migration when no SQLite config exists. After the service is started from the **Server** page, CCR listens on `http://localhost:8080` by default. The **Server** page controls the gateway `Host`, `Port`, proxy mode, system proxy, network capture, and CA certificate status. ## Quick Start CCR can be configured entirely from the desktop UI. Use this setup order for a clean first run. ### 1. Add a provider Open **Providers**, click **Add Provider**, then choose a built-in preset or **Other / custom API endpoint**. Fill in the provider name, base URL, protocol, API key, and model list. Run protocol probing and model connectivity checks when available, then save the provider. ### 2. Configure routing Open **Routing** to add conditional rules, configure request rewrites, and set fallback behavior. Use **Add Routing Rule** for request conditions, model-prefix routing, or rule-level fallback targets. ### 3. Start the gateway Open **Server** and click **Start**. After the page shows Running, CCR listens on `http://localhost:8080`. Enable **Auto start** if you want CCR to start the local gateway whenever the desktop app opens. ### 4. Connect your agent tool Open **Agent Config** and choose the client you want to use. Configure Claude Code, Codex, or ZCode, select the target model and effect scope, then apply the config. For app entries, use the **Open Agent** action to open the target app through CCR. ### 5. Monitor and adjust Use **Settings → Logs & Observability** to enable request logs and agent observability. Use **Logs** to confirm `request model`, `resolved provider`, `resolved model`, status, tokens, latency, and errors; use the tray window for quick token and account status. ## Acknowledgements Codex support is powered by [musistudio/codexl](https://github.com/musistudio/codexl). ## Support & Sponsoring
