Claude Code Router v3 updates to local gateway for coding agents

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Claude Code Router (CCR) has been updated to version 3, shifting from a simple proxy to a local model gateway and control plane for coding agents. The latest release, v3.1.1, published September 16, 2026, now functions as a desktop application or npm package, managing providers, models, credentials, and routing rules from a central configuration. This new version supports a wider array of coding tools beyond just Claude Code, including Codex, Grok CLI, Kimi CLI, and others, with configuration now managed through a SQLite database rather than direct file editing.

    Claude Code Router v3: What Changed and How I Set It Up Now

    <p>I went back to Claude Code Router this week to point a side project at a cheaper model. My notes from the last time I used it were useless. CCR isn't a small proxy you start and forget anymore. The README now calls it "a local model gateway and control plane for coding agents"…
