Welcome to CCS

CCS (Claude Code Switch) is a multi-provider profile and runtime manager. It lets you keep one profile system while routing work into Claude Code, Factory Droid, Codex CLI, and future compatible runtimes.

The Three Pillars

Multiple Claude Accounts

Run work, personal, and team Claude accounts simultaneously with separate account directories by default. Optional shared context groups.

OAuth Providers

Access Codex, Kiro, Claude, Kimi, and more via OAuth with no API keys. Copilot remains a deprecated compatibility path for existing setups.

API Profiles & Local Models

Bring your own keys for Claude, Z.AI GLM, Kimi for Coding, Novita, Alibaba, or run local models via llama.cpp

Why CCS?

Built for developers with both Claude subscription and alternative model access.

Task-Appropriate Model Selection

Model	Best For	Setup
Claude Sonnet 4.6	Complex architecture, system design, debugging	Claude Pro/Max or Direct API
GPT-5 Codex	High-signal implementation and review work	Codex OAuth or Codex CLI
GPT-5 Codex Mini	Quick iterations and prototypes	Codex OAuth or Codex CLI
OpenRouter (300+ models)	Unified access, model variety, cost flexibility	API key
Z.AI GLM 5 (`ccs glm`)	Simple fixes, routine implementations, docs	API key
Kimi OAuth (`ccs kimi`)	Long-context analysis (1M tokens)	OAuth
Kimi for Coding (`ccs km`)	Reasoning-first API workflows	API key
Alibaba Coding Plan	Cost-effective code generation, 1M context	API key
Local llama.cpp	Offline, private, zero-cost inference	Self-hosted
Qwen3 Coder	Code-focused tasks	API key

Rate Limit Management

No more manual config editing when Claude hits rate limits:

ccs           # Using Claude, hit rate limit
ccs glm       # Switch to GLM instantly
ccs codex     # Or use Codex via OAuth
ccs           # Switch back when limit resets

ccs glmt is deprecated and no longer marketed as a supported surface. Use ccs glm for Z.AI API profiles and ccs km for reasoning-first Kimi API profiles.

Quick Start

Install CCS

npm install -g @kaitranntt/ccs

Open Dashboard

ccs config

Opens the dashboard on the current session URL so you can configure accounts, providers, and profiles visually.
