I made an AI harness / orchestrator that *actually* gives you decent limits

AI summary

Scout is a Windows and Linux coding agent that pools the free tiers of five providers plus Kilo Code, OpenCode and OVH Cloud, falling back to the next model when one is rate limited, with free models limited to 10/min and 200/day without an account. It offers five permission modes, context pruning at 60k and compaction at 90k, self-maintaining memory in committable .scout/memory.md and ~/.scoutcode/memory.md files, and a Rust desktop app with a React WebView2 window shipping as an 18 MB executable. It also includes an issue tracker, remote control from a browser or phone, and an MCP bridge letting claude.ai, ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok use local file and shell tools.
