Interbase CLI brings long-running goals and aliases to 4,800+ AI models
Interbase is an open-source CLI agent that adds persistent goal-tracking and reusable workflow aliases to any of 135+ providers and 4,800+ models, decoupling those capabilities from specific frontier model offerings.
Score breakdown
Interbase decouples persistent goal-tracking and reusable workflow aliases from any specific model provider, making those capabilities available across 4,800+ models rather than only the frontier offerings that currently bundle them.

Interbase is an open-source CLI agent authored by kathuria and posted to Hacker News, available at the `agentsorchestrationcompany/interbase` GitHub repository. The project is motivated by the observation that persistent task and goal-oriented workflow features are increasingly appearing in agent products, but are typically tied to specific frontier model providers. Interbase's `/goal` command abstracts those capabilities above the model layer, supporting more than 135 providers and 4,800+ models so users can choose whichever model suits them rather than being forced into a particular provider to access a workflow feature.
The intent is that these aliases become habitual in the same way traditional shell aliases do.
The second pillar of the project is reusability. Interbase's `/aliases` system lets users define shortcuts for workflows they run repeatedly — the post gives examples such as `gcm` for a preferred git commit workflow, `review` for a code review workflow, and `ship` for a release readiness workflow. The intent is that these aliases become habitual in the same way traditional shell aliases do. The project additionally includes encrypted remote access, and the author notes that computer use capabilities spanning a broad range of models — rather than a handful of specialized offerings — is a next area of exploration. The author poses an open design question: whether long-running goals and reusable workflows belong above the model layer or as model-specific capabilities.
