What Test Claude Locally does

Test Claude Locally runs the router in local Docker Compose and drives it with `claude -p` to reproduce routing and translation behavior for a chosen upstream model. Use it to verify fixes, model streaming quirks, or `/force-model` routing without changing global Claude Code settings.

Test Claude Locally is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Test Claude Locally comes from a repository tagged agentic-coding, ai-gateway, anthropic, claude-code and codex.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Testing the router locally

For an automated pre-merge regression net (fixture-driven, asserts caching/streaming/decision-headers against real Anthropic), run make smoke — see docs/SMOKE.md. This skill is the interactive counterpart: stand the stack up by hand and drive it with claude -p to reproduce or verify a one-off bug.

Stand up the router in docker compose, point a one-off claude -p session at it via --settings, and read the local server logs to confirm behavior. Two upstream modes: the real provider API (needs a working key + credits) or a mock upstream that emits an exact SSE shape (deterministic, no credits).
