## What it is
ClewdR is a high-performance Rust proxy for Claude.ai and Claude Code that exposes native Claude and OpenAI-compatible API endpoints from a single static binary. It is lightweight (<10 MB RAM, <1 s startup), configurable via a web admin UI, and deployable as a standalone executable or Docker container.

## Use cases
- serve an OpenAI-compatible API backed by Claude accounts
- proxy Claude.ai cookies into a local API endpoint
- self-host a lightweight Claude reverse proxy in Docker
- use Claude Code sessions through a local API gateway
- run a Claude proxy on Android or ARM devices
- manage multiple Claude cookies with quota and status tracking

## When to choose
- you want a single static binary or Docker image with minimal resource usage
- you need OpenAI-compatible endpoints backed by Claude
- you run clients like SillyTavern that expect a local Claude proxy
- you need cross-platform support including Android and musl Linux

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose HTTP reverse proxy like nginx or Caddy
- you want official API key-based access rather than cookie-based sessions
- you need multi-user production-grade auth and scaling
- cookie-based Claude access may violate Anthropic's terms of service
