Moxie

Moxie is a Mac menu bar app that can use any AI with Claude Code and switch accounts mid-task.

Moxie is a Mac menu bar application that lets you connect multiple AI providers like OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, and Ollama to use directly with Claude Code. It automatically sets up Claude Code in the CLI and VS Code extension, managing your settings and routing requests from your local machine. You can add Claude plans, ChatGPT, API keys, or local models, and import existing logins from your Mac. Moxie tracks usage limits across five-hour and weekly windows, sends notifications when you approach limits, and displays token use history in a heatmap. It stores credentials securely in the macOS Keychain and allows you to switch accounts mid-task without interrupting active requests. The app is built for developers using Claude Code who want to bypass usage caps by swapping accounts on the fly.
