CodexMaxx

macOS app for switching Codex accounts, tracking usage, load balancing profiles, and monitoring active Codex sessions.

CodexMaxx reads local Codex OAuth credentials from your machine, fetches Codex usage windows, and lets you switch between stored Codex profiles from the menu bar or the main window.

Download

Download the latest stable build from releaseflow.net/kitze/codexmaxx.

Features

• Combined or active-account menu bar usage.
• Session and weekly Codex quota display.
• Account switching without a CLI, including click-to-switch account cards.
• Profile deletion from account menus.
• Main dashboard with account grid, weekly usage chart, and GitHub-style activity graph.
• Active Codex session monitoring with session count, optional menu bar status, idle blinking, and idle beep alerts.
• Optional Codex-only load balancing across stored profiles.
• Configurable load balancer strategies: capacity weighted, usage weighted, or round robin.
• Main window and settings window for when the menu bar is crowded.
• Optional email hiding for privacy.
• Text, stacked-bar, and circular menu bar display modes.
• Local profile storage under ~/.codexmaxx.
• Separate Dev variant storage under ~/.codexmaxx-dev.

Add Multiple Accounts

CodexMaxx saves whatever account is currently active in the Codex CLI. To add multiple accounts, use codex login for each account and then save it from the CodexMaxx menu.

1. Log in to the first account with the Codex CLI:

   codex login
   

2. Open CodexMaxx and choose Add Current Account.... Give the profile a clear name, such as work or personal.

3. Log in to the next account with the Codex CLI:

   codex login
   

4. Choose Add Current Account... again and save this account under a different profile name.

Repeat this flow for every account you want to manage. Switching copies the selected saved profile into ~/.codex, so the Codex CLI and CodexMaxx use the same active account.

Build

swift build -c release --product CodexMaxx

Install Locally

./Scripts/package_app.sh
open CodexMaxx.app

Privacy

CodexMaxx stores copied Codex profile files in ~/.codexmaxx/profiles/codex and backs up switched files under ~/.codexmaxx/backups. Deleting a profile removes its saved CodexMaxx copy and metadata, but does not delete your live ~/.codex files.

Do not commit ~/.codex, ~/.codexmaxx, auth.json, or local release credentials.

Credits

CodexMaxx was inspired by CodexBar by @steipete and account-switching ideas from aisw by Burak Dede.
