# CC GUI: a unified AI coding interface

> CC GUI puts Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, Grok, OpenCode, Pi, and DeepSeek Harness in one graphical interface across VS Code, JetBrains, the desktop app, and mobile.

**CC GUI** (also **CCGUI** / **ccgui**) is an open-source graphical interface for multiple CLIs. It connects several AI coding runtimes to the same chat UI. You can talk with the AI, cite files, manage sessions, and commit code in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, or the standalone desktop app.

## What you can do with CC GUI

CC GUI connects the provider you select to a single chat interface. Every client can:

* **Switch providers** — move between Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, Grok, OpenCode, Pi, and DeepSeek Harness. DeepSeek Harness is currently available only in the desktop app
* **Cite files and context** — use `@` to cite files, `/` for slash commands, and `!` to insert prompts. VS Code / JetBrains use `#` to pick an agent; the desktop app also has `@@` project memory, `@#` notes, and `$` skills
* **Manage sessions** — keep multiple conversations in the same workspace or project, and roll back. The desktop app also supports forks
* **Customize behavior** — configure MCP, Skills, Agents, and prompt enhancement

<Note>
  CC GUI is an independent open-source project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic, OpenAI, Microsoft, JetBrains, or other third-party tool vendors.
