CC Switch is a desktop application built with Tauri (Rust backend + React/TypeScript frontend) that serves as a unified management hub for multiple AI coding assistants, including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Grok Build, OpenCode, OpenClaw, and Hermes Agent. Its core function is provider switching: it manages configurations, API keys, OAuth tokens, and MCP servers across these tools, and provides a local HTTP proxy that routes API requests to different AI providers with failover, circuit breaking, and usage tracking. The application also includes session management, skills/prompts synchronization, cloud sync (S3/WebDAV), deep link import/export, and a usage dashboard with cost tracking. The architecture follows a command-service-DAO pattern in Rust, with a React frontend using TanStack Query for state management, react-hook-form for forms, and shadcn/ui components. The proxy subsystem is particularly sophisticated, implementing format conversion bridges between different AI API protocols (Anthropic Messages, OpenAI Chat/Responses, Gemini), streaming transforms, thinking budget optimization, cache injection, and content encoding handling with bomb protection. The frontend is organized around per-app provider forms, a universal provider panel, and settings pages for proxy, MCP, skills, and usage. Key features include: 50+ provider presets for third-party API relay services, one-click provider switching with live config backup/restore, a local proxy with auto-failover and circuit breaker, session history browsing across supported apps, skills installation from GitHub repos, prompt management with per-app sync, and usage statistics with custom pricing. The application supports i18n (English, Japanese, Chinese) and runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
