codex-profile-manager 0.1.0

Multi-account profile manager for OpenAI Codex CLI

Codex Profile Manager

Manage multiple OpenAI Codex accounts on a single machine. Each account has isolated CODEX_HOME, credentials, settings, and usage tracking.

Install

bash install.sh
source ~/.bashrc  # or ~/.zshrc

The installer:

• Creates a Python virtual environment
• Installs the CLI and wrapper
• Imports existing ~/.codex as the "default" account (optional)
• Adds shell functions for codex, codex-accounts, codex-projects, and codexpm

Quick Start

# Create an account
codex-accounts add work

# Login to the account
codex-accounts login work

# Use the account
codex -u work

# Set as default
codex-accounts default work
codex  # uses work account

Account Management

codex-accounts list                  # List all accounts
codex-accounts add <name>            # Create account
codex-accounts bootstrap [name]      # Import ~/.codex as account
codex-accounts remove <name>         # Remove account
codex-accounts rename <old> <new>    # Rename account
codex-accounts default [name]        # Get/set default
codex-accounts info [account]        # Show details
codex-accounts info [account] --json # JSON output
codex-accounts login [account]       # Authenticate
codex-accounts logout [account]      # Remove credentials
codex-accounts next                  # Switch to next available account

Billing/Renewal Tracking

codex-accounts set-renewal work 2024-05-01 --cycle monthly
codex-accounts clear-renewal work

The wrapper shows a banner before launch with renewal date and usage status.

Project Ledger

Track activity across accounts per project:

codex-projects status [path]         # Show project info
codex-projects history [path]        # Show activity log
codex-projects list                  # List tracked projects
codex-projects handoff --to-account backup --reason "rate limit"

Handoff creates a note with git status, recent history, and resume instructions.

Replication

Export accounts to another machine:

# Source machine
codexpm replicate export ~/codex-bundle.tgz --include-auth --include-projects

# Target machine
git clone <repo> codex-profile-manager && cd codex-profile-manager
bash install.sh && source ~/.bashrc
codexpm system install-codex
codexpm replicate import ~/codex-bundle.tgz --overwrite

System Management

codexpm system status                # Show npm/codex versions
codexpm system install-codex         # Install @openai/codex globally
codexpm system upgrade-codex         # Upgrade to latest
