Occasional write-ups on tools I actually use — what worked, what the docs left out, and what I could not verify. No listicles.

    Claude Code for $0? Use OmniRoute

    Run Claude Code against free models by routing it through OmniRoute, a gateway you host yourself. Install, key, config, and two checks that prove it is actually routing.

What I write about

Most of what lands here sits close to my daily work: developer tooling, command-line setups and AI-assisted workflows. Claude Code is part of how I work most days, so expect notes on running it, on the scaffolding around it, and on where it falls short. I read every diff before it lands, and the posts hold to the same standard: clear steps, real commands and checks you can repeat yourself. Anything I have not tested stays labelled that way, and each new post appears here first.

This is a working notebook rather than a publication. I write a post when I have used something long enough to have an opinion worth defending — a tool, a workflow, a piece of infrastructure — and when what I found is not already the first result for the obvious search.

That means posts land irregularly and each one is specific: the version I ran, the thing that broke, the setting the documentation does not mention, and the part I could not verify. Where a claim is untested I say so rather than round it up. If a post saves you the afternoon it cost me, it has done its job.
