OmniType CLI

Know exactly who wrote every line of code — you, your AI, or a paste.

OmniType is an editor-agnostic code provenance engine. It tracks which lines were written by a human, generated by an AI model (Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, etc.), or pasted in — across every tool you use.

No vendor lock-in. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Aider, Continue, and any AI coding tool.

Install

npm install -g @omnitype-code/cli

Quick Start

# Sign in
omnitype login

# Start tracking in your project
omnitype daemon

# See who wrote what
omnitype blame src/app.ts

# Check your AI vs human split
omnitype stats

Editor Integrations

Claude Code

omnitype setup-claude-hook

Installs a hook into ~/.claude/settings.json that captures the active model on every file edit — automatically.

VS Code / Cursor / Windsurf / and more

omnitype setup-vscode-hook

Detects every installed VS Code fork and enables the OmniType extension across all of them in one shot.

Any AI tool

omnitype signal --model gpt-4o --tool aider

Works with any tool that doesn't have a native integration yet.

How It Works

1. Daemon watches your project directory for file changes and records which AI model was active at the time of each edit.
2. Git hooks capture provenance at commit time, stored as git notes so they travel with your repo.
3. Blame overlays model attribution on top of standard git blame output.
4. Stats aggregates your AI vs. human vs. paste ratios across all tracked projects.

Provenance data is stored locally and optionally synced to OmniType Cloud for team dashboards and org-level analytics.
