Description

If you've started juggling more than one AI coding assistant — say Claude Code for one project and Codex or Gemini CLI for another — you already know the annoyance of re-entering API keys and settings every time you switch. CC Switch is a small desktop app that exists to solve exactly that: one place to store and swap between the configurations for all your AI coding tools.

CC Switch is a cross-platform desktop app (built with Tauri and React) that centralizes configuration management for eight or more AI coding tools — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Grok Build, and others — with over 50 built-in provider presets. It offers a visual config UI, unified MCP and Skills management, a system-tray quick-switcher, cloud sync (Dropbox, OneDrive, iCloud, WebDAV), and a local proxy with hot-switching, failover, and cost/usage tracking across tools. It's open source and free, aimed squarely at developers who've accumulated multiple AI coding assistants and want one control panel instead of five separate config files.

💬 Our review

The short version: CC Switch is a free, open-source control panel for anyone running more than one AI coding assistant, replacing scattered config files and re-typed API keys with one visual switcher and synced settings across devices.

It's a narrow, practical tool — the value is entirely in how much configuration friction it removes if you actually use multiple AI coding tools day to day, and the usage/cost tracking across tools is a genuinely useful bonus most people don't build for themselves.

The obvious limit: if you only use one AI coding assistant, there's nothing here for you — it's solving a problem you don't have. It's also scoped to a fixed list of supported tools rather than being fully general. For developers actively switching between Claude Code, Codex, and similar tools, it removes real daily friction for free.
