An OpenAI-compatible HTTP proxy that lets [OpenClaw](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw) agents use Claude through [Claude Code CLI](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) — with tool calling, session memory, and extended thinking.


Why This Exists

OpenClaw speaks the OpenAI API format. Claude Code CLI speaks its own format. This bridge sits in between and translates — so your OC agents can talk to Claude without either side needing to change.
