CCL - Claude Code Launcher

Built with Synthetic.new API

A lightweight Go launcher for Claude Code that enables switching between LLM providers without complex configuration. Providers expose an Anthropic-compatible Messages API, so Claude Code works natively with each one.

Installation

go install github.com/dotcommander/cclauncher/cmd/ccl@latest

Or build from source:

git clone https://github.com/dotcommander/cclauncher
cd cclauncher
just install

Ensure ~/go/bin is in your PATH.

Usage

ccl                    # Default provider (Synthetic/Kimi-K2.5)
ccl -p deepseek        # DeepSeek-V3.2 via Synthetic.new
ccl -p kimi2           # Kimi-K2.5 via Synthetic.new
ccl -p minimax         # MiniMax-M2 via Synthetic.new
ccl -p qwen            # Qwen3-VL-235B via Synthetic.new
ccl -p qwen3-coder     # Qwen3-Coder-480B via Synthetic.new
ccl -p claude          # Anthropic Claude (OAuth)
ccl -p claude2         # Anthropic Claude (second account)
ccl -p zai             # Z.ai (GLM-4.7)
ccl -p llamabarn       # LlamaBarn (local)

All arguments after the provider flag are passed through to claude.

Providers

Configuration

API keys via environment variables:

export SYNTHETIC_API_KEY="..."      # Synthetic.new providers
export ZAI_API_KEY="..."            # Z.ai
export LLAMABARN_API_KEY="..."      # LlamaBarn
export CLAUDE2_OAUTH_TOKEN="..."    # Claude second account

Optional config file at ~/.config/cclauncher/config.yaml with ${VAR:-default} interpolation. See examples/config.yaml.example.

Architecture

CCL sets the appropriate ANTHROPIC_* environment variables for the chosen provider, then launches the claude CLI. All providers use the Anthropic Messages API format natively, so no proxy or API translation is needed.
