claude-tap is a local proxy and trace viewer for AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI. It intercepts real API traffic so you can inspect system prompts, conversation history, tool schemas, streaming responses, token usage, and request diffs in a local viewer.

Use cases

• inspect what system prompts my coding agent actually sends
• debug Claude Code API requests locally
• view token usage and tool calls from Codex CLI
• compare agent context between turns with request diffs
• trace LLM API traffic from Gemini CLI or Cursor CLI
• understand why my AI agent behaves unexpectedly
• capture and review agent conversation history locally

When to choose

• you use AI coding CLIs and want full visibility into their API traffic
• you need to debug agent context, prompts, or tool schemas
• you want a local, privacy-preserving trace viewer without sending data anywhere

When to avoid

• you need production LLM observability for your own app's backend
• you want hosted team-wide tracing dashboards
• you don't use AI coding agents at all
