I built a Claude Code alternative from Alexandria - Your keys never leave your laptop
by•
Hey hunters! I'm Ayman from Alexandria, Egypt 🇪🇬
For months I used free-claude-code (61k stars, huge respect to Ali) but one thing scared me: shared tokens.
Your API keys on someone else's server? No thanks.
So I hard-forked it into TEOS AI Gateway:
- Keys encrypted locally with AES-256, never leave your laptop
- Blocked upstream auto-updater (teos-update = no-op) - can't phone home
- 57 providers + 11 agents, 11.2MB offline installer
- AGPL-3.0, we disclose it's a fork in README
Launching today on PH.
My question: Do you care where your AI keys are stored? Or convenience wins over privacy for you?
What's your setup? 👇
