active v1.1.1

claude-swap-bar

Switch between Claude Code accounts from the menu bar, with live usage meters.

A native macOS menu bar app for anyone running more than one Claude Code account. Swap the active account in one click and watch live usage meters for each, so you can see what's left before you hit a limit.

Problem

Running multiple Claude Code accounts means manual re-auth and no visibility into how much of each plan you've used.

What I built

A SwiftUI menu bar app that stores and switches between accounts and surfaces live per-account usage meters right in the dropdown.

Result

Switching accounts is one click, and you can see remaining usage at a glance instead of finding out mid-task.

Audience

For developers juggling several Claude Code accounts or plans who are tired of re-authenticating blind.
