history
Project history and usage
models is a Rust TUI and CLI from the reyamira/models project for browsing AI model metadata, benchmarks, coding agents, and provider status pages from the terminal. Its package-manager niche is unusually direct: instead of being an SDK for calling model APIs, it is an operator and developer browsing tool for comparing model IDs, prices, context windows, capabilities, benchmark entries, agent versions, and provider health without leaving a shell.
Project history
The project aggregates data from models.dev, Artificial Analysis, Epoch AI, Arena, LLM Stats, a curated agents catalog, and official provider status pages. The README describes a tabbed terminal interface plus scriptable commands such as listing, searching, showing model records, comparing benchmarks, checking agent releases, and inspecting provider status. Distribution spans Homebrew, Cargo, Nix, Scoop, AUR, prebuilt GitHub release artifacts, and package formats such as `.deb` and `.rpm`.
How it is used
Because the public record is concentrated in the project's own repository and package pages, its deeper adoption history is thin. The useful history is its positioning: a terminal-native index over a fast-changing AI-provider ecosystem, closer to a package-browser or dashboard than to an inference client.

Recommended review
Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
