Many developers already pay for GitHub Copilot or Claude Desktop subscriptions, and buying separate API credits creates duplicate expenses. Integrating existing subscriptions helps developers save money while using Shannon.

Describe the solution you'd like

Consider adding support to route requests through local AI clients like the GitHub Copilot extension in Visual Studio Code and the Claude Desktop application. Developers apply existing subscriptions for these services to avoid duplicate costs. This approach makes Shannon accessible to more people, and you support the open source community by lowering financial barriers.

Describe alternatives you've considered

You should look at openrouter.ai, i also do have a subcription for github copilot, but openrouter.ai allowed me to get various options for one price and pay based on usage. You can also look at the nvidia dev subscription for api keys working on huge list of models.

This is something that would be useful to add to shannon support for openrouter and for openwebui

Right now, a Claude Code subscription lets you use their tokens, since we are built on the same harness.

Because we are tightly coupled to the Anthropic Agent SDK harness, I am not sure how feasible it is to support routing through VS Code Copilot and we don't have any immediate plans on this.
