I kept hitting the 5-hour limit halfway through tasks, so I built a menu bar app that moves Claude Code to another account mid-task

This kept happening to me. I'd be deep into something with Claude Code, a refactor that was finally coming together, and then: limit reached, resets at 7pm.
I have a second account, so the fix was always the same. Sign out, sign back in, find where I was, try to remember what I was even doing. It's maybe two minutes, but it kills the momentum every single time.
So I hacked together a little tool, just for me. It sat in the menu bar, and when one account ran out I'd click the other one, type "continue", and Claude Code kept going in the same session. No restart. The first time that actually worked I was way too happy about it.
Then it snowballed. I wanted to see an account running low before it ran out, so I added tiny usage meters to the menu bar. Then I got curious whether Claude Code would run on other models, and it turns out it's happy on my ChatGPT plan, Gemini, DeepSeek, and local models in Ollama. Some models handle Claude Code's tools a lot better than others, so I added a playground to try one before trusting it with real work.
Somewhere along the way it stopped being a hack. It has a name now (Moxie), a pixel cat icon, and it sets up Claude Code by itself so nobody has to touch a config file.
It runs entirely on your Mac and there's no account to sign up for. Here's the link if you want to poke at it: https://moxie.birju.dev
Mostly I'm curious: do you juggle multiple accounts too? Have ever wanted to tried using other models with Claude Code?
