Run every account in the official Codex App
CodexUse is the control plane for Codex.app and the Codex CLI. Switch accounts without logging out, resume a running thread on the next account in the same conversation, and see every account’s headroom before a limit stops you.
- Switch accounts inside the Codex App without repeating OAuth
- Hand a running thread to the next account, same conversation
- Pool accounts behind one local OpenAI-compatible API
7-day full trial · Local-first · No API keys required · one-time license, not a subscription
How it works
Three minutes to a working cockpit
Add your Codex accounts
Sign each one in once. Every account gets its own local profile — no repeated OAuth, no config editing.
Drive the Codex App from one place
CodexUse maps running Codex App windows to their profile, then focuses, stops, restarts, or launches each one.
Switch without losing the thread
On a switch it captures the running thread, resumes it on the next account, and continues the same conversation.
Everything in one place
Built like a cockpit, not a config file
Window control per profile
Running Codex App windows mapped to their account, with focus, stop, restart, and launch from one inventory.
Thread handoff on switch
Captures the active thread, resumes it through the app-server, and continues in the same conversation.
Auto-roll with guardrails
Thresholds, priority order, recovery lane, and an activity log that explains every switch it makes.
Every window, every reset
5-hour, 7-day, and 30-day windows per account with reset countdowns — know exactly when quota comes back.
Account Pool API
One local OpenAI-compatible endpoint serves your pooled quota to Cursor, scripts, or any app — with failover.
Telegram remote
Send a task or screenshot from your phone; Codex runs it on your Mac and streams the reply back.
Encrypted cloud sync
Passphrase-encrypted snapshots move your accounts and settings to a second Mac in one pull.
Nothing leaves your Mac
Sessions, tokens, and usage stay local. No proxy servers, no API keys, no cloud middleman.

FAQ
The questions buyers actually ask
Will using multiple accounts get me banned?
CodexUse is built for accounts you already legitimately hold — your personal login, an employer seat, and separate client or contractor accounts. It signs in with the same OAuth flow the Codex CLI uses, stores each account in its own local profile, and never shares one subscription between people. It does not create accounts, bypass billing, or forge identities. If your accounts are yours to use, switching between them with CodexUse is the same activity as logging in and out by hand — CodexUse just removes the logout loop. Review your own plan terms before pooling quota for automated workloads.
Can I run the Codex App with multiple accounts?
Yes, on macOS. CodexUse detects profile-matched Codex App windows, shows running state, PID, and uptime, and lets you focus, stop, restart, or launch each one. On a switch it can capture the active thread, resume it through the app-server, and continue in the same conversation. It does not clone a live session.
How is this different from the free account switchers?
Free tools swap ~/.codex/auth.json for the Codex CLI. CodexUse also drives the official Codex App: profile-matched window orchestration and thread handoff, plus Telegram remote control, Accounts Pool, and encrypted cloud sync in one signed native Mac app. If you only need CLI account switching, a free tool is a reasonable choice and we say so on the comparison page.
Do I need API keys?
Not for CodexUse itself. It uses the same OAuth login as the Codex CLI, so you sign in with your existing OpenAI account. If you turn on Accounts Pool for another app, CodexUse generates a separate local pool key for that client.
What is Accounts Pool?
Accounts Pool turns selected saved Codex accounts into one local API for another OpenAI-compatible app. That app gets one base URL and one key, while CodexUse shares quota across the selected accounts, load-balances new requests, and fails over when one account hits limits or runtime trouble. It runs on your machine — it is not a hosted service.
How does auto-roll work?
Set a “% left” switch threshold, optionally rank eligible profiles, and CodexUse switches to the next profile when the active account reaches that remaining-usage level. A confirm countdown cancels stale decisions before they fire. Available during the trial and unlocked with Pro.
Which desktop platforms are supported?
Current public desktop releases target macOS on Apple Silicon. Intel Mac and Linux desktop builds are not shipped in the current release line. For terminal workflows on another machine, install the optional codexuse CLI with npm.
What do I get if I buy instead of starting the trial?
The same app. Pro is a one-time lifetime license with free updates and no subscription — buying just skips the 7-day trial and keeps everything unlocked afterwards. Activation is automatic after payment, with a receipt key as a manual fallback, and there is a 30-day refund window.
