What it does
ByteAsk CLI is a fork of OpenAI Codex CLI. It keeps Codex's terminal agent and adds native tools for C and C++ projects, a hosted model gateway with sign-in by email, support for your own provider keys and self-hosted models, and an optional connection to ByteAsk Context, a hosted code index. ByteAsk is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by OpenAI. See UPSTREAM.md.
