Switch between Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and other AI coding assistants from a single dashboard instead of managing separate configs.
Centrally store and manage API keys and credentials for multiple AI tools without editing config files manually.
Integrate AI coding agents with external tools and data sources using MCP (Model Context Protocol) support.
Run a lightweight native desktop app on Windows, macOS, and Linux for managing your AI development workflow.
Requires Rust toolchain installation and API keys for at least one AI service provider.
CC Switch is a desktop application that acts as a unified control panel for multiple AI coding assistants. The problem it solves is that developers who use AI tools like Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Google's Gemini CLI, OpenCode, or OpenClaw each need to manage separate configurations, API keys, accounts, and settings for each tool. CC Switch brings all of these under one graphical interface so you can switch between them, manage credentials, and configure settings without jumping between different terminal sessions or config files. The app is built using Tauri, a framework that lets developers create native desktop applications using a web-based front end backed by a Rust core. This means CC Switch runs as a lightweight native app on Windows, macOS, and Linux, rather than as a web page or heavy Electron app. Rust handles the system-level interactions, such as managing processes and reading config files, while the user interface is rendered with standard web technologies. Key capabilities described in the README include account and API key management for the supported AI tools, the ability to quickly switch which tool is active, and integrations with various AI API relay services. It also mentions MCP (Model Context Protocol) support, which is a way for AI coding agents to interact with external tools and data sources. You would use CC Switch if you regularly work with more than one AI coding assistant and find yourself manually editing configuration files or remembering different commands for each. It is aimed at developers who want a centralized dashboard rather than a command-line-only workflow for managing these tools. The tech stack is Rust on the backend and web technologies on the front end, packaged together by Tauri into a cross-platform native desktop app.
