CLAUSWITCH · VS CODE · STATUS BAR
This window, that account.
Bind a Claude account to a VS Code window or a folder, and every Claude Code session you start there just uses it.
What this thing does
Clauswitch is a VS Code extension designed for people running multi-account Claude setups. It allows you to very quickly bind a specific Claude account to a VS Code window, pin accounts to projects, and set folder rules and global defaults that pick the right account for you.
The official Claude Code extension and any Claude Code session you launch in VS Code then pick up your choices and start with the account you chose.
Clauswitch ships a compact status bar item telling you which account is active at a glance. Hover it and a pop-up tells you why that account is active. Click it and a picker opens, where you can quickly switch accounts and set up pins.
Two clicks and you are using a different account, without the OAuth dance.
New to juggling several Claude accounts? Read our guide on how to best organize your multi-account Claude setup.
No magic, no weird patches
Claude Code keeps each login in its own config directory, and a special environment variable decides which one of these is used for new sessions. Clauswitch drives exactly this mechanism according to your rules and needs. Nothing is patched or intercepted, and there is nothing to migrate away from if you stop using Clauswitch.
Never run Claude Code on this machine? Sign in there once and Clauswitch can see the account: how to sign in to Claude Code for the first time.

Where it runs
Clauswitch runs anywhere VS Code runs, on macOS, Linux, and Windows. It also
works whether you use the Claude Code extension for VS Code or the
claude command in the integrated terminal to interact with
Claude.
Where usage numbers in Pro come from
Clauswitch always reads what Claude Code has already cached on your machine first. Only when there is nothing fresh to read does it request your usage data from the same endpoint Claude Code uses, with the token Claude Code already stores. Neither that cache nor that endpoint is ours, so we say up front what happens if Anthropic decides to remove either in the future. Read the Cutoff Clause.
Usage request frequency is designed to be gentle and stay flat even with an increasing number of accounts you track, so the usage refreshes less often per account as you add more of them. The FAQ has the details. If you run both apps from the Schizm toolkit at the same time, they share what they fetch in order to keep the total number of requests low.
Your data stays on your machine
Your usage data, and everything the extension knows about your accounts, stays on your machine, and none of it is sent to us or anywhere else. The diagnostics and analytics the extension sends exist so that we can keep improving it, and it is purely up to you whether you leave this kind of reporting enabled. The switches are in the extension's settings.
