Collections of multi-agent aggregation platforms: Depo | AI Harness tools Lex’ Notes of Multi-Agent Coding tools There are a lot of these tools lately. I have tried a few myself and most feel somewhat awkward; I still prefer the official CLI, Codex App, or maybe Warp. Warp Terminal now supports vertical tabs, notifications, and remote control. Pretty nice. 821

AI Usage Monitoring

Tools for monitoring AI coding plan usage. For now I recommend the third one, OpenUsage. |404

  1. GitHub - tddworks/ClaudeBar: A macOS menu bar application that monitors AI coding assistant usage quotas. Keep track of your Claude, Codex, Antigravity ,and Gemini usage at a glance. · GitHub
  2. GitHub - steipete/CodexBar: Show usage stats for OpenAI Codex and Claude Code, without having to login. · GitHub

Codex Usage

GitHub - Dailin521/codex-provider-sync: Synchronize Codex session provider metadata across rollout files and SQLite state. · GitHub — if you use both official subscriptions and third-party APIs, Codex history may fail to display because the provider identifiers differ. This tool synchronizes them so the history shows up correctly.

If you use the official subscription, you may need TUN mode to avoid reconnecting issues. If you do not want to enable TUN mode, create a .env file under ~/.codex and add proxy settings like:

HTTP_PROXY="http://127.0.0.1:your-proxy-port" # clash seems to use 7897 by default
HTTPS_PROXY="http://127.0.0.1:your-proxy-port"
NO_PROXY="localhost,127.0.0.1"
