The outcomeCrush running in your project with the model of your choice and multiple sessions you can return to.

What you need first

  • A terminal on macOS, Linux, Windows, Android or BSD
  • An LLM provider: Charm's Hyper subscription, an API key for Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini or OpenRouter, or a local server such as Ollama

  2. On Windows use winget install charmbracelet.crush
  3. Start Crush in your project, press ctrl+l to open the model picker and choose a provider
  4. Paste your API key, or set a provider environment variable such as ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
  5. Switch models mid-session when a task needs a different one

Prompt for your agent

Install charmbracelet/crush, open it in <project>, pick <provider and model>, and work through <task> in a dedicated session, switching to a cheaper model for simple edits.

Caveat.
