Meet the platypus of coding assistants.
Weird name? Sure. But here's the thing about platypuses: they're nature's impossible mashup. Part mammal, part bird, part reptile. Somehow it all works.
That's Platypus CLI.
I built it because I wanted a coding assistant that doesn't lock me in. One where I can spawn 3 agents side-by-side, each talking to different LLMs, all working on different parts of my codebase. Where my data stays local (SQLite, not someone's cloud). Where I'm not begging permission to run git status.
What you get:
• Multi-agent orchestration — spawn teams, not solo acts
• Your choice of brain: OpenAI, Claude, or Gemini
• Works offline (SQLite state, Redis optional)
• Actually smart safety (blocks rm -rf, not ls -la)
244 tests. CI passing. Ready to break.
npm install -g platypus-cli

Open source. No gatekeepers. Just code.
