What is Cosmos?

Cosmos is a fast, keyboard-driven AI chat client that runs entirely in your terminal. It speaks to 25+ free models through OpenRouter — DeepSeek R1, Llama 3.3, Gemini 2.0 Flash, and more — and renders their answers as live-streaming Markdown, syntax-highlighted code, tables, and charts, all inside a clean monochrome TUI.

No browser tab. No mouse. No .env files to babysit. You log in once, and your models, history, and folders follow you to every machine you touch.

Quickstart

1. Install

pip install cosmos-ai

2. Sign up at cosmos-tui.app

Enter your name and your OpenRouter API key. That's it — your key is stored securely in your account, so there's nothing to configure locally.

3. Launch

cosmos

Log in once, and you're talking to frontier models in under a minute. Your key, history, and folders sync from the cloud automatically.

Windows: If cosmos is not recognized after install, add your Python Scripts folder to PATH: C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python3xx\Scripts Or run python -m cosmos as an alternative.

Features

25+ free models, switchable mid-conversation

Start a thread on Gemini 2.0 Flash for speed, hit /models, and finish it on DeepSeek R1 for deep reasoning — without losing context. Every model OpenRouter offers for free is one keystroke away.

Real-time streaming

Tokens render the instant they arrive, with a pulsing ● indicator so you always know the model is still thinking. No spinners, no waiting for the full response to land.

Cloud-synced chat history

Every conversation is saved, organized into folders, and synced to your account. Close your laptop, open your desktop, pick up exactly where you left off.

File attachments

Drop in images, PDFs, DOCX, code files, or plain text and ask questions about them. Cosmos handles the parsing — you handle the curiosity.

Rich terminal output

Full Markdown rendering with tables, syntax-highlighted code blocks, Mermaid diagrams, and ASCII bar charts. Your terminal has never looked this good.

Pricing

Free. All of it.
