⚡ Zero-reload dynamic AI model switcher & local proxy for VSCode Copilot Chat via 9Router

What it solves

This tool eliminates the need to manually edit configuration files or restart VSCode whenever you want to switch between different AI models in GitHub Copilot Chat. It provides a seamless way to swap models like Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, and DeepSeek on the fly.

How it works

It acts as a dynamic local proxy that sits between VSCode and the 9Router AI gateway. When you select a model via the web dashboard or the VSCode status bar, the proxy intercepts your chat requests and automatically injects the chosen model into the communication stream. This allows you to change models instantly without interrupting your current chat session.

Who it’s for

Developers who use GitHub Copilot Chat in VSCode and frequently switch between various AI models for different coding tasks, benchmarking, or testing, and want a faster, more visual workflow.

Highlights

  • Zero-reload model switching for uninterrupted coding sessions.
  • Modern web dashboard for visual model selection and latency benchmarking.
  • Direct integration with the VSCode status bar for quick access.
  • Supports 40+ AI providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and DeepSeek.
  • Simple one-click installation scripts for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
