Pulpo

The self-hosted meter and breaker box for coding agents.
See — and control — what every coding agent costs, across all your machines and accounts. Run Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Aider, or any terminal agent on infrastructure you own, with exact usage metering, budget enforcement, and monitoring that forwards to your own stack.

Install

brew install darioblanco/tap/pulpo

That's it. The daemon auto-starts when you run your first command.

Linux / manual install

# Linux (systemd)
curl -fsSL https://github.com/darioblanco/pulpo/releases/latest/download/pulpod-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.xz | tar xJ
sudo mv pulpod pulpo /usr/local/bin/
pulpod  # or: make service-install-linux

For a one-liner install or upgrade that works on macOS and Linux, run the script that auto-detects your OS/arch:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/darioblanco/pulpo/main/scripts/install-pulpo.sh | bash

Set `BIN_DIR` or `TARGET` when invoking the script if you need a different install directory or target triple. Re-running the script always pulls the latest release, so it doubles as the update command.
