AI Analysis

MidNiche GemSolve My Problem

Multiple Codex accounts on macOS when the official app doesn't support this.

Strengths
  • Clean isolation of auth and data per account with optional history sharing via symlinks.
  • Reset functionality protects primary Codex installation from accidental deletion.
Weaknesses
  • macOS-only shell script limits broader applicability to other platforms.
  • Basic directory isolation pattern already exists in other multi-profile tools.
Target Audience

macOS developers using Codex Desktop who need multiple accounts
