## Works with

What Herdr runs, and what can run Herdr. "With your existing login" means the wrapped tool's subscription is reused, no second bill.

### Runs

- [Claude Code](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/claude-code) (via CLI, Free with your existing login): Anthropic's terminal agent. Reads the codebase, edits files and runs commands, with a VS Code and JetBrains extension and a web surface on the same engine. Runs your installed Claude Code with its existing login.
- [Codex CLI](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/codex-cli) (via CLI, Free with your existing login): OpenAI's open source terminal agent. Signs in with a ChatGPT account and shares the plan's usage window, or bills an API key at token prices.
- [Cursor](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/cursor) (via CLI, Free with your existing login): The VS Code fork that popularised AI-native editing. Cursor 3 replaced Composer with an Agents window and Cursor Router picks models by cost, balance or intelligence. Runs the Cursor CLI agent with your Cursor account.
- [OpenCode](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/opencode) (via CLI, Free with your existing login): Open source terminal coding agent from Anomaly, with a desktop app in beta and a VS Code extension. Works with any provider through your own keys, plus the hosted Zen and Go plans.
- [Pi](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/pi) (via CLI, Free with your existing login): Minimal terminal coding harness from Mario Zechner, now maintained by Earendil. Four built in tools, tree structured sessions, and TypeScript extensions for everything else.

## Models

- **Providers**: Vendor models, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI, Mistral, DeepSeek, Meta, Moonshot, Alibaba, Zhipu, MiniMax, OpenRouter, Vercel AI Gateway, inherited from the tools it runs

- **Local models**: No

Inherits whatever the wrapped agent is signed in with. Herdr runs the agent CLIs unmodified.
