Why OcHub

AI coding tools are powerful, but each one keeps its providers, MCP servers, skills, sessions, and usage data in a different place. Changing an API endpoint or sharing the same setup across several clients quickly turns into repeated config-file editing.

OcHub brings that work into one fast, native desktop app. Use it as a simple connection switcher, or place its local gateway between your tools and upstream APIs for centralized routing, compatibility conversion, failover, and usage tracking.

OcHub currently manages Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cherry Studio, Grok Build, Kimi Code, OpenCode, OpenClaw, and Hermes.

Everything in one place

Two ways to connect

Direct connection

Choose a tool, add an API connection, test it, and switch. OcHub writes the client’s native configuration, so the tool keeps working normally after OcHub is closed.

Best for: a straightforward endpoint change, a tool’s official login, or a small setup with independent connections.

Model provider mode

Point supported clients at OcHub’s loopback gateway. The gateway can translate between supported API dialects and apply model aliases, reasoning mappings, interface retries, health checks, and failover before a request reaches its upstream.

Best for: sharing an upstream across tools, normalizing model names, converting API formats, tracking usage centrally, or building a resilient multi-provider setup.

Native Codex Fast and Ultra launcher

On macOS, the Codex app page includes Launch Codex. It starts a separate Codex desktop instance and unlocks Fast and Ultra in the app’s native model picker for compatible GPT-5.6 models. OcHub intercepts the renderer script in memory over a loopback-only debugging connection; it does not modify or re-sign the installed Codex application.

This makes the native controls selectable and preserves the selected Fast service tier in Codex requests. The configured model provider must still support the requested service tier and reasoning effort. Launch Codex through OcHub each time you need the unlock. See the advanced Codex guide for supported models, security boundaries, and troubleshooting.

Built for the desktop

• Native UI powered by GPUI — no browser shell or webview
• Local-first storage in ~/.ochub/
• Cross-platform releases for macOS, Windows, and Linux
• In-app updates for DMG, Windows installer, and AppImage installations
• Open source under GPL-3.0-or-later

[!IMPORTANT] OcHub is under active pre-release development. Back up important tool configuration before trying an early build. OcHub only changes the live configuration of applications you explicitly manage.

Install

Homebrew

Homebrew automatically selects the correct Apple Silicon or Intel build:

brew install --cask ochub-team/tap/ochub

OcHub is signed with an Apple Developer ID. Notarization is not enabled yet, so if macOS blocks the first launch, open System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway.

Direct download

Download the latest release for your platform from the GitHub Releases page.

Releases include SHA256SUMS and a GitHub artifact attestation. Packaging, signature verification, and release details live in the release guide.

The headless archives contain a single self-managing ochcli executable. See the included README or run ochcli --help to configure and operate OcHub without the desktop GUI. To control WSL or a development machine from OcHub Desktop, follow the Remote Nodes guide.

Build from source

OcHub is a Rust workspace built with GPUI and axum. The repository pins its Rust toolchain, so rustup will select the correct version automatically.

git clone https://github.com/OcHub-team/OcHub.git
cd OcHub
cargo run -p ochub-app

Platform requirements:

• macOS: Xcode or Xcode Command Line Tools
• Windows: Visual Studio 2022 Build Tools with the Windows SDK
• Debian/Ubuntu: ./scripts/ci/install-linux-deps.sh

Common development commands:

just check
just test
just ci
just qa-app       # macOS: builds /tmp/OCHUB-QA.app for acceptance testing

The workspace is split into these main components:

OcHub’s development is supported by the API relay providers below. They are independent third-party services — you register and manage your own API key with each of them, and your requests go straight from your machine to theirs.
