Multi-account
Keep several Claude or Codex logins on one device and pick the account each session runs under.
Top bar · New session
How to
- Log in once per account. Give each one its own config dir (e.g.
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.claude-work claude). - Open New session. Use New session in the top bar.
- Pick the account. Choose it from the Account picker.
- Create. The session launches bound to that account’s config.
One session, one account
A device can hold several Claude or Codex accounts (each is a config directory like ~/.claude or ~/.codex-work). When you open a new session, an Account picker lets you choose which one it runs under - the session is launched bound to that account’s config, so work and personal quotas never mix.
Accounts are scoped to the device: the picker on a remote box lists the logins that exist on that box, which means a session created over SSH uses the remote credentials, not your laptop’s.
To add another account, log into it in a terminal with a different config dir (e.g.
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.claude-work claude). It then shows up in the picker automatically.
