Just change the base url in your OpenAI SDK and TokenScavenger handles the rest: provider credentials, routing logic, model discovery, circuit breakers, usage tracking, and a beautiful operator dashboard - all in one Rust binary backed by SQLite. Why TokenScavenger? - Maximize local and free inference across local OpenAI-compatible servers and permanent free-tier providers without managing dozens of API endpoints. - Zero runtime overhead — one static binary, no Docker or Python/Node required for basic use. - Production-grade resilience — circuit breakers, health checks, retries, and full observability. - Beautiful built-in UI — monitor usage, routing decisions, and provider health in real time. - Drop-in replacement for OpenAI, LangChain, Vercel AI SDK, LlamaIndex, etc. Features - Free-tier-first routing with configurable fallback chains - Tool-aware routing for agentic clients, preferring stronger tool-call providers automatically when OpenAI tools are present - Model intelligence layer with smart groups, task tags, modality flags, context-window awareness, and catalog freshness scoring - Full OpenAI-compatible API (chat completions + streaming SSE, embeddings, /v1/models ) - 18 built-in providers with automatic model discovery, including local OpenAI-compatible upstreams","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/kabudu","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/kabudu/token-scavenger/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
