Magpie gateway lets Claude Code run Kimi and Codex run DeepSeek

Magpie is an open-source project by yetone. Its repository was created on September 23, 2026, and by November 4, 2026 it had accumulated 29,000 GitHub stars, with the latest tag at v0.1.2906. On November 4, 2026, a hands-on tutorial on Juejin introduced the project: run a local gateway at 127.0.0.1:3425 that speaks four APIs at once — OpenAI Chat Completions, OpenAI Responses, Anthropic Messages and Gemini — and converts between them, preserving streaming output, tool calls and reasoning. That lets Claude Code, which only speaks the Anthropic protocol, call Kimi, while Codex, which speaks Responses, can call DeepSeek. The tutorial author notes that every agent hard-codes its model in its own config file in a different format, with keys and base URLs managed separately, so a paid subscription can only be used inside a single agent. According to the tutorial, Magpie has two core capabilities. First, it runs the local gateway described above. Second, it edits the agent's config file for you: once a model is clicked in the interface, Magpie changes only the few keys that need to change, keeping comments, ordering and indentation intact and writing atomically. The tutorial claims switching models takes four lines of commands, with no manual edit to settings.json and no export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL; open a new Claude Code session and DeepSeek is already running behind it. The README also states when the tool is worth using: users running more than one agent, more than one provider or more than one account fit, while those who rely on a single agent and its own subscription and are satisfied with it do not. The visible progress so far stops at the tutorial's walkthrough of how to use Magpie.
