models

TUI and CLI for browsing AI models, benchmarks, coding agents, and provider statuses.

Highlights

• ~4,000+ models across 85+ providers from models.dev — filter by capability, price, context, and provider category
• ~400 benchmark entries from Artificial Analysis — compare models head-to-head with scatter plots and radar charts
• 11+ coding agents tracked with version detection, changelogs, and GitHub integration
• 22 provider statuses monitored live across 7 status page platforms

What's New in v0.11.3

• Status CLI — models status list, show, sources, and status commands with interactive picker and JSON output
• Configurable aliases — customize symlink names via [aliases] in config.toml; models link creates all three
• Status tab — live provider health monitoring with incidents, maintenance, and customizable tracking
• Agent service health — live operational status from provider status pages in the agents detail panel and CLI
