askimo vs onetool-mcp
askimo: Askimo is a native desktop app that puts OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok and local Ollama models in one chat client. It adds local RAG over your files, MCP tools, a script runner and the ability to delegate goals to agent CLIs such as Claude Code and Codex.; onetool-mcp: OneTool MCP is a single MCP server that bundles 100+ tools — Brave search, Google, Context7, AWS, Playwright, Chrome DevTools, Excel, database operations, and more. Instead of registering each tool individually and burning context on their definitions, agents write short Python code to call any tool on demand. Anthropic engineering research backs this approach: code execution reduces token usage by over 98%, cutting costs dramatically when agents need many external tools.
TL;DR
- You want one native desktop client for cloud models and local Ollama or LM Studio models.
- You want to chat with local folders and files through RAG without uploading them.
- You want to send work to Claude Code, Codex or Antigravity from the same app.
- You need permissive licensing for embedding in a hosted product: the licence is AGPLv3.
- You only want a lightweight chat window; this app bundles RAG, Plans, scripts, MCP and voice.
- You want a headless server or a library rather than a desktop app.
