Built tasuki — an AI CLI Orchestrator that Seamlessly Hands Off Between Tools

I built and open-sourced tasuki, an AI CLI orchestrator that automatically rotates between Claude Code / Codex CLI / GitHub Copilot CLI based on priority.

Repository: https://github.com/0xkohe/tasuki

Motivation

I’m the kind of person who prefers subscribing to multiple AI tools at $20–$30 each rather than committing to a single $100–$200 plan. I want to explore different tools and continuously feel the differences between models.

However, doing this means hitting usage limits fairly quickly, which interrupts workflow and requires manual switching — something I found annoying.

Each AI has its strengths — Codex for review, Claude for conversation, etc. But unless you’re extremely opinionated, there’s value in constantly rotating through tools and experiencing their evolution. If you stick to one, you may miss when another becomes better at something.

The switching decision itself is trivial labor — so I wanted to automate it.
That’s why I built tasuki.

Instead of treating rate limits as a constraint, I treat them as an opportunity to move to another model.

Intended Workflow

Prioritize Claude Code and Codex CLI (5-hour windows)
Since their reset cycles are short, it’s more cost-efficient to exhaust them first.
Once both 5-hour windows are exhausted, switch to GitHub Copilot CLI
Copilot operates on a monthly quota, so it works well as a “bridge.”
When Claude / Codex reset, switch back automatically
Monthly quota should be preserved as much as possible.

What It Does

Native UI stays intact
Each CLI runs inside a wrapped PTY, preserving the original interactive experience.
Automatic switching based on usage
Adapters monitor CLI output streams and trigger a handoff when a threshold (default: 95%) is reached.
Context-aware handoff
Progress is written to .tasuki/handoff.md and injected into the next provider.

Try It in 5 Minutes

Install

go install github.com/0xkohe/tasuki/cmd/tasuki@latest

First Run

cd path/to/your/project
tasuki

Closing

Use everything. Keep exploring.
tasuki reduces the friction of doing that.

I built git-ai – generate Conventional Commit messages via Claude/Copilot/Codex CLI

I built a small cli called git-ai that adds a git ai commit command to your workflow.
It reads git diff --staged, sends the diff to your preferred AI CLI (Claude, GitHub Copilot, or OpenAI Codex), and generates a Conventional Commit message automatically. A spinner animation shows the progress, and if one model isn't installed or fails, it silently falls back to the next available one.

$ git add .
$ git ai commit
⠹ Generating commit message with copilot...
✅ Generated by copilot

Proposed: feat: add user authentication middleware

Features:

Supports Claude CLI, GitHub Copilot CLI, and OpenAI Codex CLI
Auto-detects which model to use (claude → copilot → codex)
--edit / -e flag to review and modify in vi before committing
Pure bash, no dependencies beyond the AI CLI itself
One-line install via install.sh

The motivation was simple: I kept writing the same kinds of commit messages over and over. With git-ai, I just stage my changes and let the AI handle the wording — it's surprisingly good at following Conventional Commits format.
