neurogen-dev/NeuroAPI

What it solves

This project provides open-source installers that allow users to connect the Codex CLI and Claude Code to the NeuroAPI service. It simplifies the setup process for users who want to access a unified AI API (supporting OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, and DeepSeek) through a Russian-based infrastructure with payment in rubles.

How it works

The installers automate the configuration of the CLI tools. Instead of manual setup, the users run a script (BAT for Windows, command for macOS) that handles the following:

• Secure Key Storage: The API key is not stored in plain text in config files or environment variables. On Windows, it uses DPAPI for encryption; on macOS, it uses the system Keychain.

• Dynamic Key Retrieval: It creates "helpers" that provide the API key to the CLI tools only when requested, preventing accidental leaks of the key in configuration files.

• Profile Management: It creates separate configuration profiles (e.g., neuroapi-host.config.toml for Codex) so that existing configurations are not overwritten.

Who it’s for

Developers and users of Codex CLI and Claude Code who want to use NeuroAPI as their AI backend, particularly those in Russia or those preferring a unified API gateway for multiple frontier models.

Highlights

• Secure Credential Handling: Uses OS-native encryption (DPAPI/Keychain) to avoid storing keys in .env or JSON files.
• Open-Source Installers: The installation and uninstallation processes are completely transparent.
• Cross-Platform Support: Dedicated setup scripts for both Windows and macOS.
• Non-Intrusive Installation: Does not require administrator/sudo privileges and does not modify shell profiles.
