It supports multi-model workflows just via prompts. All agents run as daemons. Complex AI systems/techniques can be replaced with a paragraph of prompt in KISS Sorcar. ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ksenxx/kiss_ai/main/scripts/install.sh | bash ``` ______________________________________________________________________ <details> <summary><strong>Table of Contents</strong></summary> - [KISS Sorcar vs Claude Code vs Cursor](#-kiss-sorcar-vs-claude-code-vs-cursor) - [What is in the Name](#what-is-in-the-name) - [See It in Action](#-see-it-in-action) - [Installation](#installation) - [Full install from source](#full-install-from-source) - [Python package / CLI install](#python-package--cli-install) - [Configure model access](#configure-model-access) - [VS Code Extension Installation](#vs-code-extension-installation) - [CLI Interface](#cli-interface) - [CLI options](#cli-options) - [Interactive CLI features](#interactive-cli-features) - [`sorcar mcp` subcommand](#sorcar-mcp-subcommand) - [Messaging & Third-Party Agents](#-messaging--third-party-agents) - [Models Supported](#-models-supported) - [Contributing](#-contributing) - [License](#-license) - [Citation](#-citation) </details> <div align="center"> <img src="assets/sorcar-main.gif" alt="KISS Sorcar demo" width="100%"> </div> ## 🆚 KISS Sorcar vs Claude Code vs Cursor | Capability | **KISS Sorcar** | **Claude Code** | **Cursor** | |---|---|---|---| | **Interfaces** | CLI + VS Code extension + web/mobile app | CLI + mobile app | Custom VS Code | | **AI Discovery** | ✅ simply via prompt | ❌ | ❌ | | **GEPA Prompt Optimization** | ✅ simply via prompt | ❌ | ❌ | | **Multiple models from multiple vendors in the same task** | ✅ Mix OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Together, Z.AI, Moonshot AI, OpenRouter, Claude Code CLI, and Codex CLI | ❌ Anthropic Claude models only | ❌ One model per task | | **Primary focus** | ✅ **Quality** — rigorous review, end-to-end tests | Speed and developer ergonomics | Speed | | **Core Agents # LoC** | **~2850** | Unknown | Unknown | | **Models in bundled catalog** | 542 across 9 provider categories | Claude family only | Subset chosen by Cursor | | **Bring your own API key / endpoint** | ✅ Yes — keys stay on your machine | ✅ Anthropic key | ⚠️ Routed through Cursor backend | | **Open source** | ✅ Apache-2.0 | ❌ Proprietary | ❌ Proprietary | | **Price** | Free framework; pay only your chosen model provider | Subscription / API usage | Subscription | | **Run on top of Claude Code / Codex CLI** | ✅ `cc/*` and `codex/*` namespaces | N/A | ❌ | | **Messaging and communication channels** | ✅ 23 third-party agents, including Slack, Gmail, Phone Control, SMS, and WhatsApp | ⚠️ Slack, mobile Remote Control, and research-preview channels for Telegram, Discord, and iMessage; no documented built-in Gmail, WhatsApp, phone-c
