cli-anything-ccswitch

A command-line tool for CC Switch, a desktop application that manages settings for several AI coding tools. It also exposes CC Switch's providers, proxy, servers, skills, sessions, and usage data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to switch AI providers, manage the local proxy and MCP servers, view installed skills, inspect usage and costs, change settings, and search conversation sessions.
Why use it?
It lets scripts and coding agents inspect and change coding-tool configurations without navigating the desktop application.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cli-anything-ccswitch scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

CC Switch CLI

CLI harness for CC Switch, a desktop app that manages AI coding tool (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Hermes) configurations. Built with Click and the CLI-Anything methodology.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10+
  • CC Switch installed with an active database at ~/.cc-switch/cc-switch.db

Installation

pip install -e .

After installation, the command cli-anything-ccswitch is available.

Command Groups

Group Description
status Show a quick database overview
providers Manage AI provider configurations (list, get, set-current)
proxy Manage the local HTTP proxy server (status, config)
mcp Manage MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers (list, enable)
skills Manage installed skills (list, repos)
usage View API usage and cost statistics (stats, logs)
settings View and manage CC Switch settings (list, get, set)
sessions Browse and search AI conversation sessions (list)

Global Options

  • --json — Output in machine-readable JSON format (recommended for agent use)
  • --db PATH — Override the database path

Agent-Specific Guidance

JSON Output

Always use --json for programmatic consumption. Place it before the subcommand:

cli-anything-ccswitch --json providers list
cli-anything-ccswitch --json usage stats --days 30
cli-anything-ccswitch --json providers get <id> --app claude

Sensitive Values

API tokens, keys, and secrets are masked in all output. The settings_config field in provider details shows masked values (e.g., sk-bc089...5cbb).

Exit Codes

  • 0 — Success
  • 1 — Error (e.g., resource not found, invalid app type)

App Types

Valid app types: claude, codex, gemini, opencode, openclaw, hermes.

Examples

List all providers

cli-anything-ccswitch providers list
cli-anything-ccswitch --json providers list --app claude

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
