Even as a technical person, I remember my transition from Cursor to Claude Code CLI being rough. Maybe 1Code could be a way to get the best of both worlds, power of claude code and UX of Cursor
So we decided to build a tool that WE would actually use, and once we succeeded with that, we open-sourced it. Since then we've received a lot of feedback on where to take this product - some use cases Anthropic will probably never do, like integrating Codex or adding other z.ai GLM subscription.
We're just trying to ship something we use ourselves, and maybe it could be useful to others, and see where it goes.
Some other tools (like OpenCode) made direct API calls while impersonating Claude Code - that approach got banned. We're not doing that.
Beyond that, we're working on API & integrations - connecting Sentry so an agent can automatically open a PR to fix an issue, or triggering Claude Codes directly from @ mentioning in GitHub/Slack/Linear.
On pricing: honestly, the paid tier is less about monetization right now and more about signal. People who pay are the ones who really want this to work, and we want to build for them first. It helps us focus.
