Counts unlabeled, assigned, unassigned, milestoned, demilestoned, locked, unlocked over the last 12 months. These are issue and pull request events that require triage or write permission. Commits and code review are not counted. labeled and renamed are excluded because GitHub issue forms record the issue author as the actor. Figures from October 18, 2026. This count is not comparable across projects: each project's automation decides which of these events a person emits. How this is counted.

How this project is maintained

Roughly one issue in four opened in the past year never receives a reply. 100% of open issues come from outside the core team, so the backlog reflects real-world use rather than internal planning. Almost all tracked open issues have seen activity in the last three months. Only 57% of issues opened in the past year have been closed. Three people close 82% of everything that gets resolved.

Detailed Description

claude-swap is a multi-account manager for Claude Code that lets developers switch between multiple Claude accounts without logging out.

The tool solves the problem of hitting rate limits when using Claude Code by enabling seamless account rotation. It works by storing credentials for multiple Claude accounts and switching between them either manually or automatically. When automatic switching is enabled, the tool monitors usage across a configurable time window and rotates to the account with the most remaining quota before the active account reaches a rate-limit threshold, defaulting to 90% usage. The tool tracks usage metrics for each account across both 5-hour and 7-day windows and displays reset times in a live dashboard. It supports both the Claude Code CLI and the VS Code extension, and can run accounts in parallel sessions.

Developers managing multiple Claude accounts or those who frequently exhaust rate limits should consider this tool. It suits workflows where parallel processing or extended usage across multiple accounts is needed. The automatic switching strategy can be configured to pick the account with the most quota remaining or to skip rate-limited accounts entirely. The tool avoids logging out when switching accounts, which prevents revocation of stored refresh tokens that can occur with the standard logout flow.

The project shows active maintenance with regular updates to its installation and usage documentation. The tool includes platform-specific behavior notes for Linux, Windows, and macOS, indicating attention to cross-platform compatibility. The README provides detailed guidance on account management workflows and includes advanced usage patterns for automated switching, suggesting the maintainers are responsive to real-world usage scenarios.
