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, Copilot, Kiro, Claude, Qwen, Kimi, and more via OAuth with no API keys

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

​
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.
