makecindy/cindy (created 2026-07-22, 1,151 stars, 147 forks, v0.1.22 shipped 2026-07-30) is an Apache-2.0 desktop/mobile client that treats Claude Code and Codex as interchangeable harnesses: models and harnesses mix freely and can switch mid-task while workspace, memory, skills and tools stay continuous, so one task can be planned, executed in parallel and reviewed by agents on different harness × model combos. It authorizes the Claude Code or Codex coding plan you already pay for rather than double-billing. The 329 open issues against 67 MB of source in eight days is the counter-signal — this is early, not stable.
