CC Switch
Cross-platform desktop manager for switching API providers, MCP settings, prompts, and skills across AI coding agents.
Switch API providers and configure prompts across Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI without editing JSON.
CC Switch is a cross-platform desktop application built with Rust and Tauri that manages configurations for AI coding tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI. It lets you switch API keys, custom relay endpoints, Model Context Protocol (MCP) settings, skills, and prompts through a visual interface instead of editing raw config files.
What it is
The application consolidates settings management across multiple terminal and desktop AI agents into one interface. You can switch between model providers with a single click and update your shared prompt libraries and MCP tool integrations across platforms simultaneously.
Who it's for
It suits researchers, students, and developers who work with multiple CLI coding agents or switch between different API relay providers to balance model access costs. It does not suit someone who only uses web chat interfaces and never interacts with local AI CLI tools or custom API keys.

Our honest verdict
What's great
- Replaces manual editing of JSON, TOML, and YAML configuration files across multiple AI tools.
- Native desktop application built with Rust and Tauri for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Simplifies managing and switching API relay providers to manage API usage costs.
- Provides a visual panel for configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations.
Where it falls short
- Does not provide free AI access; you must supply your own API keys or pay for relay subscriptions.
- Requires running a desktop GUI app rather than operating purely as a lightweight CLI utility.
- Dependent on supported CLI tool configuration schemas remaining compatible as agents update.
Pricing & license
CC Switch is free software under the MIT licence. Your only expenses are the token and API usage fees charged by the AI model providers or relay services you connect to it.
