Codex Manager is a Rust-based CLI tool for managing and switching between Codex accounts with local gateway forwarding capabilities.
The tool addresses the need to manage multiple Codex accounts and route requests through a local gateway. It provides account pooling functionality for both desktop and service process environments, allowing users to maintain and switch between different Codex credentials without manual reconfiguration.
The project is intended for developers who work with Codex CLI and need to manage multiple accounts or integrate Codex services into local applications. It suits scenarios where account switching, credential management, or local request forwarding is required. The tool is primarily validated on Windows desktop environments, though the codebase supports multiple platforms.
Development is driven by a single maintainer who acknowledges limited resources for comprehensive cross-platform testing and validation. The maintainer prioritizes Windows desktop functionality and welcomes community testing and issue reports from other platforms. The project was developed primarily with AI assistance and is positioned as a learning and development tool, with the maintainer emphasizing that users should test thoroughly before deployment and that the core functionality is stable despite the resource constraints of the development effort.
