AI TOOL DETAILS
Cogpit
Manage Claude Code, OpenAI Codex and GitHub Copilot CLI sessions in one local desktop or web workspace. It uses those CLIs’ existing logins; the MIT source build omits the separately proprietary Team UI.
Cogpit
Free MIT source build · CLI costs separate
What does it cost?
The listed option is free to use. Hosting or model usage may still cost money.
The official repository describes Cogpit as free and MIT-licensed, and a source build contains the local desktop/web app. Official binaries may include a separate proprietary Cogpit Team UI that is not covered by the repository license; its current price and terms are not inferred here. Supported CLI subscriptions, model usage and API charges remain separate.
Provider pricing checked 31 Oct 2026.
Installation and setup
- Install and sign in to one supported agent CLI using its own official provider instructions before connecting it to Cogpit.
- For the local browser interface, install Node.js 20.11 or newer and run the official launcher command: npx cogpit@latest. Keep the terminal open while using the local interface; press Ctrl+C to stop it.
- For one session, use the documented command npx cogpit@latest preview <session-id> with an identifier from your own supported CLI.
- For a headless source setup, use the official repository instructions: install Bun, then run bun install, bun run build, and bun server/standalone.ts. The documented default bind is 127.0.0.1:19384.
- Keep a headless service on loopback unless remote access is necessary. For intentional remote access, set the documented network password (minimum 16 characters), serve it over HTTPS, and follow the upstream reverse-proxy guidance.
Documented source-build commands only; AltStack did not execute the repository, launcher or installer. Cogpit is the local workspace; supported agent CLI model access remains subject to the respective providers and account costs.

npx cogpit@latestThe official README documents this local launcher and says it opens the browser interface on an available local port. Keep the terminal open while using it and press Ctrl+C to stop it. This command was not executed by AltStack; it does not install a coding-agent CLI or provide model access.
