Codex Account Switcher

Manage multiple OpenAI Codex identities (e.g. personal vs. work) by swapping the authentication token file.

Usage

1. List Accounts

Show saved accounts (active one is marked with

ACTIVE
on the right). Default output is compact.

  • --verbose
    includes refresh age + token TTL (debug)
  • --json
    outputs the verbose info as JSON
./codex-accounts.py list

To include emails/diagnostics:

./codex-accounts.py list --verbose

2. Add an Account

Interactive wizard to capture login(s).

  • Always starts a fresh browser login (
    codex logout && codex login
    ) so you explicitly choose the identity to capture.
  • After each login it saves a snapshot.
  • In an interactive terminal it asks if you want to add another.
  • When invoked non-interactively (e.g. via Clawdbot), it runs single-shot (no "add another" prompt).
  • When naming an account, press Enter to accept the default name (local-part of the detected email, e.g.
    oliver
    from
    oliver@…
    ).
./codex-accounts.py add

3. Switch Account

Instantly swap the active login.

./codex-accounts.py use work

4. Auto-Switch to Best Quota

Check all accounts and switch to the one with most weekly quota available.

./codex-accounts.py auto
./codex-accounts.py auto --json

Output:

🔄 Checking quota for 2 account(s)...

  → sylvia... weekly 27% used
  → oliver... weekly 100% used

✅ Switched to: sylvia
   Weekly quota: 27% used (73% available)

All accounts:
   sylvia: 27% weekly ←
   oliver: 100% weekly

How It Works

  • Stores
    auth.json
    files in
    ~/.codex/accounts/<name>.json
    .
  • Identifies accounts by decoding the JWT
    id_token
    to find the email address.
  • "Switching" simply overwrites
    ~/.codex/auth.json
    with the saved copy.

Installation

Add the script to your path for easy access:

ln -s $(pwd)/codex-accounts.py ~/bin/codex-accounts
