Account Rotation (Agent Credential Switch)

Switches a coding agent's account only on explicit request, then verifies the new identity by asking the runtime itself instead of diffing credential files.

What it does

  • Performs an account/profile switch only when the caller explicitly asks; auto-rotating to dodge a quota is forbidden.
  • Routes to the right credential tool by host and agent family: macOS + Claude → claude-acct (Keychain-backed); file-backed Codex/Gemini/Linux/WSL → caam.
  • Confirms the switch by asking the target runtime who it is now — never by comparing credential-file bytes.
  • Names the key failure mode ("stale-process identity"): running processes still hold the old tokens in memory, so it reports partial rotation and whether a fresh process is required.
  • Returns a full report: host, agent family, tool used, requested account, identity before/after, any runtime still holding the old account, and the command exit code.

Who it's for

  • Developers juggling multiple accounts (personal/work) across Claude Code, Codex CLI, or Gemini CLI.
  • Operators standardizing the verification step of account switches in agent pipelines.
  • Anyone who has hit "I switched accounts but the agent still runs as the old one".

Examples

  1. "Switch to my work account" on macOS + Claude → uses the claude-acct route, then queries the runtime and reports before/after identity.
  2. Rotating Gemini credentials on a Linux box → uses caam, and flags live sessions still holding the previous account as a partial rotation.
  3. No credential tool or identity probe available → discloses the absence and stops, rather than claiming success from file diffs.

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/boshu2/agentops/HEAD/images/gemini/skills/account-rotation/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the images/gemini/skills/account-rotation folder from the GitHub repo boshu2/agentops into my ~/.claude/skills/account-rotation/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/boshu2/agentops.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r agentops/images/gemini/skills/account-rotation ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/boshu2/agentops.git
  3. Create the skills directory: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r agentops/images/gemini/skills/account-rotation ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Edit ~/.claude/skills/account-rotation/SKILL.md and replace claude-acct / caam with the account-switch commands that actually exist on your machine — those tools are the original operator's routes, not shipped here.
  6. Restart Claude Code and try: "use the account-rotation skill to switch accounts".
