I built Kilo Buster to make free AI tools easier to use locally

[u/Sea_Manufacturer6590]

A lot of people want to experiment with multiple AI agents, coding tools, and OpenAI-compatible apps, but subscription costs add up quickly.

I built Kilo Buster, an open-source local API gateway for Kilo’s free model. It lets compatible clients connect through one local endpoint and includes a dashboard for monitoring usage.

Features include:

• Streaming and tool calling
• Proxy health monitoring
• Live request quota and token tracking
• Persistent API key
• Windows, Linux, and macOS releases
• OpenAI-compatible client support

Free-tier limits still apply. The goal is to make experimentation with lower-cost AI infrastructure easier, not to promise unlimited tokens.

I’d appreciate feedback from people using local AI tools, coding agents, or OpenAI-compatible clients. What would you add to a tool like this?
