About CLI Proxy API

A proxy server that provides OpenAI/Gemini/Claude compatible API interfaces for CLI.
It now also supports OpenAI Codex (GPT models) and Claude Code via OAuth.
so you can use local or multi‑account CLI access with OpenAI‑compatible clients and SDKs.
Now, We added the first Chinese provider: Qwen Code.
