CC Switch
farion1231/cc-switch
Desktop app that switches API providers and manages MCP, skills and prompts across coding agents
CC Switch is a cross-platform desktop app that manages configuration for Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent and several other coding agents from one window. It lets Hermes Agent users switch API providers in one click instead of hand-editing config files.
What CC Switch does
CC Switch is a desktop application written in Rust on the Tauri framework. It targets a problem that comes with running several AI coding tools: each one keeps its own provider settings, MCP servers, skills and prompts in separate JSON, TOML or YAML files. The app puts provider switching, MCP management, skills management and prompt management into a single interface, so a change does not require editing those files by hand.
The README lists Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Grok Build, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, Pi and MiniMax Code as supported tools. The repository topics also mention WSL support, and the README is available in English, Chinese, Japanese and German. The maintainer states that ccswitch.io is the only official website for the project.
