CLUSTER CODEX-BETWEEN-HISTORY · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-19
Codex provider switchers
The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — only 0 dated entries exist before the index start. The cluster focuses on tools that switch between different API and local models for Codex while preserving conversation history and settings, with some enabling bidirectional migration with DeepSeek Harness. Traction leaders are yl-instruct-codex-Gpt-5.6 (14 stars), CodexShift (2 stars), and codex-connection-helper (1 star).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
