Huge update to getbased just landed.
Use your favorite CLI agent as an AI provider.
That means you can use your existing subscription with Codex, Opencode (including free models), Grok, Claude (self-hosteding only for now), Hermes, and OpenClaw.
getbased now has its own tools these agents can call, on top of their own. That leads to much better output, including web search by default.
This feature requires a small companion locally installed that serves as a bridge between your browser and CLIs. And of course, it's open-source so you don't have to trust it, feel free to verify it.
The great thing about using your own personal agents, such as Hermes Agent or OpenClaw, in getbased is that you get your actual agent responding to you with its memory, its personality, and its knowledge about you.
Hermes Agent by NousResearch and OpenClaw are both available from localhost and remote gateway.
If your agent is using Honcho, for example, that setup is used in getbased as well.
Chat got some serious love.
You can now select models and set effort directly from the input area, drop pictures and files to import, and set context.
Conversations also show your profile picture and your agent’s, and the whole chatting experience is significantly better.
The sidebar now lets you create projects, manage them and move conversations with drag and drop.
Both the chat and the sidebar are flexible — resize them as you see fit.
Besides that, dashboard widgets now scale and fit automatically.
The whole codebase was audited with the new GPT-6 Astra and cross-reviewed with Opus 5.
