+dario is a local process that turns your Claude Max or Pro subscription into an API endpoint that any tool on your machine can use. It talks to Anthropic the same way Claude Code does, so your subscription's rate limits are what you spend against — not a separate API billing tier.
-Opus, Sonnet, Haiku — all models, streaming, tool use. **Zero dependencies.** ~2,000 lines of TypeScript. Works with Cursor, Continue, Aider, LiteLLM, Hermes, OpenClaw, or any tool that speaks the Anthropic or OpenAI API. Auto-launches under [Bun](https://bun.sh) when available for TLS fingerprint fidelity. **Auto-detects OAuth config from your installed CC binary** so dario stays in sync forever — Anthropic can rotate client IDs and dario picks them up on the next run.
+Install it once, log in once (using your existing Claude Code credentials if you have them), and from that point on every tool that speaks the Anthropic API or the OpenAI chat completions API — Cursor, Continue, Aider, LiteLLM, your own scripts, whatever — can reach Claude through `http://localhost:3456`.
-dario is the **per-request layer** — one account, one workload, every request indistinguishable from CC on the wire. Session-level and account-level concerns (multi-account pooling, behavioral-classifier shaping, 24/7 fleets) live a layer above dario, in [askalf](https://askalf.org) — [see below](#askalf). Both are built by the same team on the same OAuth and billing infrastructure.
+**Standalone is the default.** You don't need an account anywhere, you don't need to wait for anything, and nothing phones home. Install and run.

+**Dario is also the local bridge for [askalf](https://askalf.org).** When your workload outgrows a single subscription — multi-account pooling, session shaping to stay under Anthropic's behavioral classifiers, 24/7 fleets, scheduled workflows — dario is the component that keeps running on your machine and connects to the askalf platform.

+**Best fit:**
+- Power users already paying for Claude Max or Pro who want Claude available inside their local stack — editors, terminals, scripts, internal tools — without moving to API billing.
+- Small teams that work in terminals and IDEs, not in hosted agent stacks, and want Claude as a drop-in provider for whatever tools they already use.
+- Anyone who wants Claude Code's billing behavior on their own requests, from their own code.
-**Copilot** (Microsoft)
+**Not a fit:**
+- You need vendor-managed production SLAs on every request. Use the Anthropic API directly.

+- You want a hosted chat UI. Use claude.ai.

-## Why dario
-Most Claude subscription proxies have a critical billing problem: **Anthropic classifies their requests as third-party and routes all usage to Extra Usage billing** — even when you have Max plan limits available. You're paying for your subscription twice.
-dario is the only proxy that solves this. Instead of transforming your requests signal by signal, dario uses **template replay** — it replaces the entire request with Claude Code's exact template. 25 tool definitions, 25KB system prompt, exact field order, exact beta headers, exact metadata structure. Only your conversation content is preserved. When Bun is installed, dario auto-relaunches under Bun for TLS fingerprint fidelity matching CC's runtime. Anthropic's classifier sees a genuine Claude Code request because it IS one.
-| | dario | Other proxies |
-|---|---|---|
-| **Approach** | Template replay — sends CC's actual request | Signal matching or none |
-| **Tools** | CC's exact tool definitions sent upstream | Client tools (detected) |
-| **Max plan limits** | Used correctly | Bypassed — billed separately |
-| **Detection resistance** | Undetectable at the per-request level without flagging CC itself | Detected by tool names, field order, effort level, etc. |
-| **Dependencies** | 0 | Many |

+**Use dario if** you already pay for Claude Max or Pro and you want Claude inside the tools you already use, without paying API rates for every request or routing your work through a second hosted stack.
-</details>
+**Use the Anthropic API directly if** you need platform-native primitives, vendor-managed production usage, high-scale control, or SLAs your subscription tier doesn't cover. Dario isn't trying to replace the API — it's trying to unlock the subscription you already bought.
-## The Problem
+**Use dario + askalf if** you're running multi-agent workloads, hitting session-level rate limits that a single account can't clear, or need a 24/7 fleet. Dario keeps running on your machine as the local bridge; askalf adds multi-account pooling, session shaping, and the platform pieces a single-subscription proxy can't deliver. See [below](#from-standalone-to-askalf).
-You pay $100-200/mo for Claude Max or Pro. But that subscription only works on claude.ai and Claude Code. If you want to use Claude with **any other tool** — Cursor, Continue, Aider, your own scripts — you need a separate API key with separate billing.
+**Don't use dario if** you want a subprocess bridge that shells out to `claude --print` under the hood. Those tools (openclaw-claude-bridge and similar) work well for single-team single-machine workloads that can accept a one-subscription rate ceiling and a one-machine deployment. Dario is the API-path alternative, which trades that simplicity for pooling-friendly behavior on the wire. Different tradeoffs, different tool.
-**dario fixes this.** It creates a local proxy that translates API key auth into your subscription's OAuth tokens. Your subscription handles the billing. No API key needed.
-**Note:** Claude subscriptions have [usage limits](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11647753-how-do-usage-and-length-limits-work) that reset on rolling 5-hour and 7-day windows. You can check your utilization via Claude Code's `/usage` command or the [statusline](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/statusline).
+---
 ## Quick Start
-### Prerequisites
+```bash
+# Install
+npm install -g @askalf/dario
-[Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/overview) installed and logged in (recommended). Dario detects your existing Claude Code credentials automatically and also auto-extracts the current OAuth client config from the installed CC binary so dario stays in sync with whatever CC version you have, even when Anthropic rotates client IDs.
+# Log in (detects Claude Code credentials if installed)
+dario login
-If Claude Code isn't installed, dario runs its own OAuth flow — opens your browser, you authorize, done.
+# Start the proxy
+dario proxy
-### Install
+# Anthropic SDK
+export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3456
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=dario
-```bash
-npm install -g @askalf/dario
+# or OpenAI-compatible tools
+export OPENAI_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3456/v1
+export OPENAI_API_KEY=dario
 ```
-Or use npx (no install needed):
+Opus, Sonnet, Haiku — all models, streaming, tool use, prompt caching, extended thinking. **Zero runtime dependencies.** ~2,000 lines of TypeScript. Auto-launches under [Bun](https://bun.sh) when available for TLS fingerprint fidelity with Claude Code's runtime. **Auto-detects OAuth config from your installed CC binary** so dario stays in sync forever — Anthropic can rotate client IDs and dario picks them up on the next run.
-```bash
-npx @askalf/dario login
-```
+---
-### Login
+## How It Works
-```bash
-dario login
-```
+Dario has two modes: **direct API mode** (the default) and **passthrough mode** (`--passthrough`).
-- **With Claude Code installed:** Detects your credentials automatically and starts the proxy. No browser needed.
-- **Without Claude Code:** Opens your browser to Claude's OAuth page. Authorize, and dario captures the token automatically via a local callback server. Then run `dario proxy` to start the server.
+### Direct API Mode — Template Replay
-### Start the proxy
+This is the mode you want for almost every case. Dario takes each request you send it and replaces it with a Claude Code request: same 25 tool definitions, same 25KB system prompt, same field order, same beta headers, same metadata structure, same device identity. Only your conversation content is preserved. Anthropic's classifier sees what looks like a Claude Code session because, from the wire up, it *is* one — and that's what keeps your usage on subscription billing instead of Extra Usage.

-dario proxy

-dario — http://localhost:3456
-Your Claude subscription is now an API.
+The details that matter:
-Usage:
-  ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3456
-  ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=dario
+- **Billing tag** reconstructed using CC's own algorithm extracted from the binary: `x-anthropic-billing-header: cc_version=<version>.<build_tag>; cc_entrypoint=cli; cch=<5-char-hex>;` where `build_tag = SHA-256(seed + chars[4,7,20] of user message + version).slice(0,3)`.
+- **Beta set** — CC's exact beta list in CC's order, minus any beta that would require Extra Usage to be enabled on your account.
+- **OAuth config** auto-detected from the installed CC binary at startup. When Anthropic rotates `client_id`, authorize URL, or scopes, dario picks up the new values on the next run without needing a new release. Falls back to hardcoded CC 2.1.104 prod values if CC isn't installed. Cache at `~/.dario/cc-oauth-cache-v3.json`, keyed by binary fingerprint.
+- **Session ID** rotates per request via `x-claude-code-session-id`, matching how `claude --print` behaves. A persistent session ID across rapid requests is a behavioral signal.
+- **Framework scrub** — framework identifiers and known fingerprint tokens (`OpenClaw`, `sessions_*` tool prefixes, orchestration tags, etc.) are stripped from both the system prompt and message content before the request goes upstream.
+- **Bun auto-relaunch** — when Bun is installed, dario relaunches under it so its TLS fingerprint matches CC's runtime. Without Bun, dario runs on Node.js and works fine; the TLS fingerprint is the only difference.
-Auth: open (no DARIO_API_KEY set)
-OAuth: healthy (expires in 11h 42m)
-Model: passthrough (client decides)
-```
+### Passthrough Mode — `--passthrough`
-### Use it
+For tools that need exact Anthropic protocol fidelity with nothing injected. This mode does an OAuth token swap and nothing else: no billing tag, no template, no device identity.
 ```bash
-# Set these two env vars — every Anthropic SDK respects them
-export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3456
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=dario
-# Now any tool just works
-openclaw start
-aider --model claude-opus-4-6
-continue  # in VS Code, set base URL in config
-python my_script.py
+dario proxy --passthrough
 ```
-## Passthrough Mode
+Use it when the upstream tool already builds a Claude-Code-shaped request on its own and you just need the token auth.
-For tools that need exact Anthropic protocol fidelity with zero modification, use `--passthrough` (alias: `--thin`). This does OAuth swap only — no billing tag, no template replay, no device identity, no extra beta flags. Note: most tools (including Hermes and OpenClaw) work better through default mode, which handles billing classification automatically.
+### Detection scope
-```bash
-dario proxy --passthrough               # Thin proxy, zero injection
-dario proxy --thin --model=opus         # Thin proxy + model override
-```
+Dario is a **per-request layer**. Every request it sends upstream is designed to be indistinguishable from a Claude Code request, and the per-request scrubbing hardened in v3.4.5 makes that meaningfully harder to fingerprint than it was when v3.0 first shipped. What dario cannot do at the per-request level is defend against Anthropic's session-level and account-level classifiers — those operate on cumulative per-OAuth behavioral aggregates (token throughput, conversation depth, streaming duration, inter-arrival timing) and no amount of per-request hardening reaches them. That's a different problem at a different layer, and it's [askalf](https://askalf.org)'s job rather than dario's. See the [FAQ entry](#faq) for the full explanation.
-## Model Selection
+---
-Force a specific model for all requests — useful when your tool doesn't let you configure the model:
+## From standalone to askalf
-```bash
-dario proxy --model=opus      # Force Opus 4.6
-dario proxy --model=sonnet    # Force Sonnet 4.6
-dario proxy --model=haiku     # Force Haiku 4.5
-dario proxy                   # Passthrough (client decides)
-```
+Dario is fully useful on its own. You don't need an account, you don't need to wait for anything, and the standalone mode is and will remain the default.
-Full model IDs also work: `--model=claude-opus-4-6`
+When your workload grows past what a single Claude subscription can hold, dario is also the local-edge component of the [askalf](https://askalf.org) platform. Same binary, same commands, same local proxy — linking to askalf adds what a per-request layer alone can't deliver:
-## OpenAI Compatibility
+| | dario standalone | dario + askalf |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Accounts** | 1 (yours) | Pool of 2–20+ |
+| **Rate limits** | Your subscription's 5h / 7d windows | Distributed across the pool, near-zero 429s |
+| **Session shaping** | Per-request scrub | Per-session cumulative tracking, rotation, classifier avoidance |
+| **Browser / desktop control** | No | Yes — full computer use |
+| **Scheduling** | No | Cron, webhooks, triggers |
+| **Persistent memory** | No | Per-agent context and state |
+| **Hosted dashboard** | No | Yes |
+| **Local proxy component** | dario | dario |
-Dario implements `/v1/chat/completions` — any tool built for the OpenAI API works with your Claude subscription. No code changes needed.
+When the askalf bridge endpoint is live, a single command (`dario link`) will pair this local instance with your askalf account and the extra capabilities unlock in place. Until then, standalone is the only mode that runs — nothing to wait for to use dario as it is today.
-```bash
-dario proxy --model=opus
+**[Join the askalf waitlist →](https://askalf.org)**
-export OPENAI_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3456/v1
-export OPENAI_API_KEY=dario
+Dario will always be open-source and free. askalf is the hosted tier for teams who need the layer above.
-# Cursor, Continue, LiteLLM, any OpenAI SDK — all work
-```
+---
-Use `--model=opus` to force the model regardless of what the client sends. Or pass `claude-opus-4-6` as the model name directly — Claude model names work as-is.

-Your app sends whatever it wants — any tools, any parameters. dario replaces the entire request with Claude Code's template and injects only your conversation content. The upstream sees CC's exact tool definitions, field structure, and parameters.

-```
-### What dario actually sends upstream
-In direct mode, every request dario sends to Anthropic is a genuine Claude Code request. Key fields injected or enforced:
-**Billing tag** — reconstructed using Claude Code's own algorithm extracted from the CC binary:
-```
-x-anthropic-billing-header: cc_version=<version>.<build_tag>; cc_entrypoint=cli; cch=<5-char-hex>;
-```
-The build tag is `SHA-256(seed + chars[4,7,20] of user message + version).slice(0,3)`. The `cch` is a fresh random 5-char hex per request. Both were extracted via MITM capture.
-**Beta set** — exactly 8 betas from CC, in CC's order:
-```
-claude-code-20250219, oauth-2025-04-20, context-1m-2025-08-07,
-interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14, context-management-2025-06-27,
-prompt-caching-scope-2026-01-05, advisor-tool-2026-03-01, effort-2025-11-24
-```
-**Request headers** — CC's exact Stainless SDK headers, including `x-stainless-runtime-version: v24.3.0` (the Node.js compat version CC reports when running on Bun), `x-app: cli`, `user-agent: claude-cli/<version>`, `anthropic-dangerous-direct-browser-access: true`.
-**Upstream URL** — `api.anthropic.com/v1/messages?beta=true`, matching CC's own request format.
-**Device identity** — `metadata.user_id` loaded from `~/.claude/.claude.json`. Without this, Anthropic classifies the request as third-party and routes it to Extra Usage billing instead of the Max plan allocation.
-**Session ID** — rotates per request via `x-claude-code-session-id`. A persistent session ID across many rapid requests is a behavioral detection signal; CC `--print` creates a new session each invocation.
-**Rate governor** — 500ms minimum between requests (configurable via `DARIO_MIN_INTERVAL_MS`). Configurable for agent workloads that need tighter pacing.
-### OAuth Config Auto-Detection
-Anthropic periodically rotates the OAuth `client_id`, authorize URL, token URL, and scopes that Claude Code uses. Historically this caused `"Invalid client id"` errors until a new dario release shipped.
-Dario scans the installed CC binary at startup and extracts the current config directly:
-- **Anchor**: `BASE_API_URL:"https://api.anthropic.com"` — this literal appears only inside CC's live prod OAuth config block, so the scanner reliably lands in the right object even when the minifier reorders fields across CC releases.
-- **Extracted**: `CLIENT_ID`, `CLAUDE_AI_AUTHORIZE_URL`, `TOKEN_URL`, and the full `user:*` scope string. A defensive check rejects any scan result that matches a known-dead internal client_id.
-- **Cached**: Results stored at `~/.dario/cc-oauth-cache-v2.json` keyed by binary fingerprint (first 64KB sha256 + size + mtime). Cold scan ~500ms, cache hit ~5ms. Re-scans only when CC is upgraded.
-- **Fallback**: If CC is not installed or scanning fails, dario uses the CC 2.1.104 prod config values hardcoded in-tree. No user action needed.
-- **Override**: Set `DARIO_CC_PATH=/path/to/claude` to point dario at a non-standard CC binary location.
-CC ships three OAuth config factories (`local`, `staging`, `prod`) in one binary, selected at runtime by a function that is hardcoded to `prod` in shipped builds. Only the prod block is live; the other two are dead code paths CC uses when pointing at internal dev/staging infrastructure. The scanner targets the prod block specifically.
-End-to-end verification lives at [`test/oauth-detector.mjs`](test/oauth-detector.mjs).

-## Supported Features
-### Direct API Mode
-- All Claude models (Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6, Haiku 4.5) + 1M extended context aliases (`opus1m`, `sonnet1m`)
-- **Template replay** — replaces the entire request with Claude Code's exact template. 25 tool definitions, 25KB system prompt, exact body key order, exact beta headers (model-conditional), exact metadata structure. Client tools are mapped to CC equivalents and reverse-mapped in responses. Template data stored as JSON for easy updates.
-- **`--preserve-tools` mode** — opt-out of CC tool schema replacement for agent frameworks that rely on their own custom tool definitions. Default mode still remaps for maximum detection resistance.
-- **OAuth auto-detect** — scans the installed CC binary for OAuth config at startup. Stays in sync with whatever CC version you have; falls back to known-good hardcoded values if no binary is found. Override with `DARIO_CC_PATH`.
-- **Bun auto-relaunch** — auto-detects Bun and relaunches under it for TLS fingerprint fidelity. CC runs on Bun; Node.js has a different TLS fingerprint visible at the network level.
-- **Session ID rotation** — each request gets a fresh session ID via `x-claude-code-session-id`, matching CC behavior.
-- **Rate governor** — configurable minimum interval between requests via `DARIO_MIN_INTERVAL_MS`.
-- **Enriched 429 errors** — rate limit errors include utilization %, limiting window, and reset time instead of Anthropic's default `"Error"` message.
-- **Auto-retry on long-context errors** — when Anthropic returns 400 or 429 with `"long context beta is not yet available"` or `"Extra usage is required"`, dario transparently retries without the `context-1m-2025-08-07` beta flag.
-- **OpenAI-compatible** (`/v1/chat/completions`) — works with any OpenAI SDK or tool.
-- Streaming and non-streaming (both Anthropic and OpenAI SSE formats, including tool_use streaming).
-- Tool use / function calling.
-- System prompts and multi-turn conversations.
-- Prompt caching and extended thinking.
-- **Billable beta filtering** — strips `extended-cache-ttl` from client betas (the only beta requiring Extra Usage enabled on the account).
-- **Beta deduplication** — client-provided betas are deduplicated against the base set before appending.
-- **Orchestration tag sanitization** — strips agent-injected XML (`<system-reminder>`, `<env>`, `<task_metadata>`, etc.) before forwarding.
-- **Token anomaly detection** — warns on context spike (>60% input growth) or output explosion (>2x previous).
-- Concurrency control (max 10 concurrent upstream requests).
-- CORS enabled (works from browser apps on localhost).
-### Passthrough Mode
-- All Claude models with native streaming and tool use.
-- OAuth token swap only — no billing tag, no template injection, no device identity.
-- Minimal beta flags (`oauth-2025-04-20` + client betas only).
-- For tools that need exact Anthropic protocol fidelity with zero modification.

-## askalf
-**dario and askalf solve different layers of the same problem.**
-dario is the per-request layer: one account, one workload, every request on the wire indistinguishable from Claude Code. It's what you reach for when you want your Max/Pro subscription usable from any tool that speaks the Anthropic or OpenAI API. It does not pool accounts, shape sessions, distribute load, or care about cumulative behavioral signals — those are not per-request concerns, and solving them at the per-request layer is a category error.

 ## FAQ
 **Does this violate Anthropic's terms of service?**

+Dario auto-refreshes tokens 30 minutes before expiry. `dario refresh` forces an immediate refresh if something goes wrong.
 **What happens when Anthropic rotates the OAuth client_id or URL?**
-Dario auto-detects OAuth config from your installed Claude Code binary. When CC ships a new version with rotated values, dario picks them up on the next startup — no dario release needed. The detector is cached at `~/.dario/cc-oauth-cache-v2.json` and only re-scans when the binary fingerprint changes. If CC isn't installed, dario falls back to hardcoded CC 2.1.104 prod values.

 **I'm hitting rate limits. What do I do?**
-Claude subscriptions have rolling 5-hour and 7-day usage windows. Check your utilization with Claude Code's `/usage` command or the [statusline](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/statusline).

Dario's rate-limit errors include utilization percentages and reset times so you can see exactly when capacity returns.
 **My multi-agent workload is getting reclassified to overage even though dario template-replays per request. Why?**
-Because reclassification at high agent volume is not a per-request problem. Anthropic's classifier operates on cumulative per-OAuth-session behavioral aggregates — token throughput, conversation depth, streaming duration, inter-arrival timing, thinking-block volume. Dario can make each individual request indistinguishable from Claude Code and still hit this wall on a long-running agent session, because the wall isn't at the request level. Thorough diagnostic work on this was contributed by [@belangertrading](https://github.com/belangertrading) in [#23](https://github.com/askalf/dario/issues/23), including the per-request v3.4.3 hardening that landed as a result. For the session-layer shaping itself — multi-account pooling, session rotation, workload distribution that keeps any single account from concentrating the behavioral signal — that's what [askalf](https://askalf.org) is built for. Different layer, different tool.
-If you're running a multi-agent workload and consistently hitting limits, [askalf](https://askalf.org) distributes load across multiple accounts automatically.
-**What are the usage limits?**
-Claude subscriptions have rolling 5-hour and 7-day usage windows shared across claude.ai and Claude Code. See [Anthropic's docs](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11647753-how-do-usage-and-length-limits-work) for details.
-**Can I run this on a server?**
-Dario binds to localhost by default. For server use, handle the initial login on a machine with a browser, then copy `~/.claude/.credentials.json` (or `~/.dario/credentials.json`) to your server. Auto-refresh will keep it alive from there. If you want dario reachable from other machines on the same LAN or a Tailscale mesh, pass `--host=0.0.0.0` (or a specific interface IP) and set `DARIO_API_KEY` to gate access.

 **Why "dario"?**
-Named after [Dario Amodei](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dario_Amodei), CEO of Anthropic.
-## Programmatic API
-Use dario as a library in your own Node.js app:
-```typescript
-import { startProxy, getAccessToken, getStatus } from "@askalf/dario";
-// Start the proxy programmatically
-await startProxy({ port: 3456, verbose: true });
-// Passthrough mode (OAuth swap only, no injection)
-await startProxy({ port: 3456, passthrough: true });
+It's a name, not an acronym. Don't overthink it.
-// Preserve-tools mode (keep client tool schemas)
-await startProxy({ port: 3456, preserveTools: true });
-// Or just get a raw access token
-const token = await getAccessToken();
-// Check token health
-const status = await getStatus();
-console.log(status.expiresIn); // "11h 42m"
