Overview

CC Switch v3.13.0 is a major feature release centered on observability, provider workflow ergonomics, and proxy compatibility. It adds inline quota and balance displays across official Claude / Codex / Gemini providers plus Token Plan, Copilot, and third-party balance APIs; introduces a Lightweight Mode that keeps CC Switch running from the system tray without a main window; delivers automatic model discovery via OpenAI-compatible /v1/models across all five supported applications; ships a Codex OAuth reverse proxy for ChatGPT subscribers; reorganizes the tray menu into per-app submenus; rebuilds the proxy forwarding stack on a Hyper-based client; and overhauls the Skills workflow with discovery, batch updates, storage-location toggling, and built-in skills.sh search and install. Additional improvements include full URL endpoint mode, enhanced token usage tracking, the Copilot interaction optimizer, a UTF-8 streaming chunk boundary fix for multi-byte output, a Linux startup UI responsiveness fix, and a friendlier new-user onboarding experience.

Highlights

• Lightweight Mode: Tray-only operating mode that destroys the main window on exit to tray and recreates it on demand, reducing CC Switch's desktop footprint to near zero when idle
• Quota & Balance Visibility: Inline quota or balance readout across provider cards — official Claude / Codex / Gemini subscriptions, GitHub Copilot premium interactions, Codex OAuth, Token Plan providers (Kimi / Zhipu GLM / MiniMax), plus official balance queries for DeepSeek, StepFun, SiliconFlow, OpenRouter, and Novita AI
• Provider Model Auto-Fetch: OpenAI-compatible /v1/models discovery across Claude, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, and OpenClaw provider forms, with grouped dropdown selection and failure-specific error messages
• Codex OAuth Reverse Proxy: ChatGPT Codex reverse proxy exposed as a new Claude provider card type, allowing users to use their ChatGPT subscription in Claude Code. Includes managed OAuth login and inline subscription quota display (⚠️ Risk Notice)
• Tray Per-App Submenus: Reworked the tray menu into per-application submenus so it never overflows the screen and background provider switching scales to dozens of providers per app
• Skills Discovery & Batch Updates: SHA-256-based skill update detection, per-skill and "Update All" batch actions, skills.sh search integration, and a storage-location toggle between CC Switch storage and ~/.agents/skills
• Session Workflow Upgrades: Batch session deletion, a directory picker before launching Claude terminal restore, usage import from Claude / Codex / Gemini session logs without proxy interception, precise Codex JSONL parsing, and per-app usage filtering
• OpenCode / OpenClaw Stream Check Coverage: OpenCode detection via npm package mapping, OpenClaw openai-completions support, and the remaining OpenClaw protocol variants — with custom-header passthrough and auth-header detection fixes
• Full URL Endpoint Mode: Provider option that treats base_url as a complete upstream endpoint, unblocking vendors that require nonstandard URL layouts
• Hyper-based Proxy Forwarding Stack: Refactored proxy forwarding onto a Hyper-based client with transparent header forwarding, improved endpoint rewriting, and better support for dynamic upstream endpoints
• Copilot Interaction Optimizer: Request classification and routing logic that reduces unnecessary GitHub Copilot premium interaction consumption
• UTF-8 Stream Chunk Boundary Fix: All four SSE streaming paths now preserve incomplete multi-byte UTF-8 sequences across TCP chunks, eliminating intermittent U+FFFD garbled output via the Copilot reverse proxy
• Linux Startup UI Fix: Fixed the long-standing issue where the window UI couldn't receive clicks on Linux until the user manually maximized and restored the window
• First-Run Onboarding: One-time welcome dialog on fresh installs, automatic seeding of Claude / OpenAI / Google official presets, and auto-import of OpenCode / OpenClaw live configurations on startup
• Claude Session Titles & Search Highlighting: Meaningful title extraction for Claude sessions using a priority chain (custom-title metadata → first user message → directory basename), plus keyword highlighting in Session Manager search results
• URL-Based Provider Icons: Dual rendering mode supporting Vite URL imports for large SVGs and raster images (PNG, JPG, WebP), keeping small SVGs inlined
• New Provider Presets: TheRouter, DDSHub, LionCCAPI, Shengsuanyun (胜算云), PIPELLM, and E-FlowCode across supported applications

New Features

Lightweight Mode

A tray-only operating mode that dramatically reduces CC Switch's desktop footprint when idle.

• Destroys the main window on exit-to-tray instead of hiding it, freeing UI resources and memory
• Recreates the window on demand when the user reopens CC Switch from the tray, a deeplink, or single-instance activation
• Integrated into every window-re-show path: normal startup, deeplink, single_instance, tray show_main, and the lightweight-exit round-trip

Quota & Balance Visibility

Added inline quota and balance readouts to provider cards so users can see remaining capacity without leaving the card.

• Official subscriptions: Inline quota display for Claude, Codex, and Gemini official providers
• GitHub Copilot: Premium interactions quota display on the Copilot provider card
• Codex OAuth: ChatGPT subscription quota inline with the Codex OAuth provider card
• Token Plan providers: Kimi, Zhipu GLM, and MiniMax usage progression display (requires manual activation to avoid confusion)
• Third-party balances: Official balance queries for DeepSeek, StepFun, SiliconFlow, OpenRouter, and Novita AI (requires manual activation to avoid confusion)
• Health-check and usage-config buttons are hidden for official providers to keep the card clean

Provider Model Auto-Fetch

Added OpenAI-compatible model discovery to every provider form, removing the manual copy-paste loop for model IDs.

• Queries the configured provider endpoint's /v1/models
• Groups models in the dropdown by category for easier selection
• Failure-specific error messages distinguish network / authentication / endpoint issues
• Supported across all five applications: Claude, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, and OpenClaw

Codex OAuth Reverse Proxy

Added a reverse proxy path for ChatGPT subscribers who want to use their ChatGPT subscription in Claude Code.

• Managed OAuth login flow with ChatGPT authentication
• Surfaces as a new Claude provider card type alongside API-key providers
• Inline subscription quota display
• Integrated into the Auth Center for unified token management
• See the ⚠️ Risk Notice below before enabling

Tray Per-App Submenus

Reorganized the tray menu so providers are grouped under each application instead of living in a flat list.

• Per-application submenus for Claude, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, and OpenClaw
• Prevents the tray menu from overflowing the screen when users have many providers
• Background provider switching scales cleanly to long provider lists

Skills Discovery & Batch Updates

Upgraded the Skills management panel into a complete discovery plus maintenance workflow.

• SHA-256 update detection: Skills are content-hashed so the UI knows exactly which ones have upstream changes
• Per-skill and batch updates: Individual "Update" buttons plus an animated "Update All" batch action
• Storage-location toggle: Switch between CC Switch storage and ~/.agents/skills without losing skill state
• Public registry search: skills.sh search integrated directly into the dialog for discovering community skills

Session Workflow Upgrades

Multiple session management improvements that reduce friction when working with Claude / Codex / Gemini sessions.

• Batch session deletion: Select and delete multiple sessions at once from Session Manager (#1693, thanks @Alexlangl)
• Directory picker before restore: Claude terminal restore now prompts for the working directory up front (#1752, thanks @yovinchen)
• Usage from session logs without proxy: Usage data imported directly from Claude / Codex / Gemini session logs — no proxy interception required
• Precise Codex JSONL parsing: Replaced estimated Codex usage with precise JSONL session-log parsing plus Codex model name normalization for consistent pricing lookup
• Gemini CLI session log integration: Gemini usage now syncs accurately from Gemini CLI session logs
• Per-app usage filtering: Filter the usage dashboard by Claude, Codex, or Gemini independently

OpenCode / OpenClaw Stream Check Coverage

Extended the Stream Check panel to cover the full OpenCode and OpenClaw surface area.

• OpenCode detection via npm package mapping
• Support for the OpenClaw openai-completions protocol
• Support for the remaining three OpenClaw protocol variants
• Edge-case handling for custom-header passthrough, OpenClaw custom auth-header detection, Bedrock error messaging, and OpenCode default baseURL fallback

Full URL Endpoint Mode

Added a provider option that treats base_url as a complete upstream endpoint instead of a base URL with path appending (#1561, thanks @yovinchen).

• Proxy forwarding and Stream Check both honor the full-URL mode
• Unblocks vendors that require nonstandard URL layouts
• Configurable per-provider on the provider form

OpenCode StepFun Step Plan Preset

• Added a StepFun Step Plan provider preset for OpenCode with sensible defaults (#1668, thanks @sky-wang-salvation)

Copilot Interaction Optimizer

Added request classification and routing logic that reduces unnecessary GitHub Copilot premium interaction consumption.

• Classifies incoming requests by intent and weight
• Routes low-value requests away from premium interaction consumption paths
• Designed to extend the usable lifetime of a Copilot subscription
• Note: Even with optimized consumption, using the Copilot API outside of Copilot still consumes more than using it within Copilot.

First-Run Welcome Dialog

Added a one-time welcome dialog on fresh installs to guide new users through the CC Switch workflow.

• Explains how existing live configuration is preserved as a default provider
• Introduces the bundled official preset that enables one-click revert to official endpoints
• Upgrade users are automatically excluded via empty provider check

Official Provider Seeding

• Added automatic seeding of Claude Official, OpenAI Official, and Google Official provider entries on startup, giving every user a one-click path back to the official endpoint

OpenCode / OpenClaw Auto-Import

• Added automatic startup import of live OpenCode and OpenClaw provider configurations, matching the auto-import behavior already present for Claude, Codex, and Gemini

Common Config Editor Guidance

• Added an informational guide and empty-state prompt to the Common Config snippet editor modal for Claude, Codex, and Gemini
• Added a one-time informational dialog explaining Common Config Snippets when users first open the provider add/edit form

Claude Session Titles & Search Highlighting

• Added meaningful title extraction for Claude sessions using a priority chain: custom-title metadata, first real user message, then directory basename fallback
• Added keyword highlighting in session titles and messages during Session Manager search

URL-Based Provider Icons

• Added a dual rendering mode to the icon system: small SVGs are inlined as React components, while large SVGs and raster images (PNG, JPG, WebP) are loaded via Vite URL imports as <img> tags

Kaku Terminal Support

• Added Kaku as a selectable terminal for session launch on macOS, reusing the WezTerm-compatible launch path (#1983, thanks @yovinchen)

OMO Slim Council Support

• Restored first-class council support as a built-in oh-my-opencode-slim agent with updated metadata and UI copy (#1982, thanks @yovinchen)

New Provider Presets

• TheRouter: Added across Claude, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, and OpenClaw (#1891, #1892, thanks @cmzz)
• DDSHub: Added as a third-party partner provider for Claude with icon and partner promotion text
• LionCCAPI: Added across all five apps with anthropic-messages protocol for OpenCode and OpenClaw
• Shengsuanyun (胜算云): Added as an aggregator partner provider across all five apps with URL-based icon and localized display name
• PIPELLM: Added across Claude, Codex, OpenCode, and OpenClaw with full model definitions and icon

Bug Fixes

Copilot Authentication & Proxy Compatibility

• Fixed GitHub Copilot authentication regressions (#1854, thanks @Mason-mengze)
• Corrected enterprise and dynamic endpoint handling
• Repaired clipboard verification-code copying on macOS and Linux
• Fixed Responses routing when Copilot-backed Claude providers target OpenAI models (#1735, thanks @Mason-mengze)

UTF-8 Stream Chunk Boundaries

Fixed intermittent garbled output (U+FFFD replacement characters) in Claude Code when multi-byte UTF-8 sequences such as Chinese characters and emoji were split across TCP stream chunks via the Copilot reverse proxy (#1923, thanks @Cod1ng).

• Replaced String::from_utf8_lossy with a new append_utf8_safe helper across all four SSE streaming paths
• Preserves incomplete trailing bytes in a remainder buffer and merges them with the next chunk before decoding
• Not reproducible with direct Copilot connections that pass through raw bytes without format conversion

Fragmented System Prompt Normalization

Fixed strict OpenAI-compatible chat backends (Nvidia, Qwen-style) rejecting requests when converted Claude payloads contained multiple system messages (#1942, thanks @yovinchen).

• Normalized system content into a single leading system message during the Anthropic → OpenAI chat transformation
• Leaves the rest of the message stream unchanged

Streaming Parser Compatibility

• Fixed SSE parsing to accept fields with optional spaces, improving compatibility with non-strict streaming implementations (#1664, thanks @Alexlangl)

Provider Switch State Corruption

• Serialized per-app provider switches to prevent concurrent failover or hot-switch operations from leaving is_current, settings state, and live backup state out of sync

Claude Takeover Live Config Drift

• Fixed provider edits while Claude takeover is active so live settings remain aligned with the latest provider state without breaking takeover restore behavior (#1828, thanks @geekdada)

WebDAV Password Retention & Validation

• Fixed the WebDAV password field so saved credentials remain visible after refresh
• Treated MKCOL 405 responses correctly during connection validation (#1685, thanks @Alexlangl)

Provider Card Action States

• Fixed additive-mode highlight behavior (#1747, thanks @yovinchen)
• Aligned usage display layout across provider cards by always rendering action buttons
• Replaced hard proxy-switch blocking with a warning path
• Disabled unsupported test and usage actions for Copilot and Codex OAuth cards
• Hid usage-config and health-check buttons for official providers
• Removed the hover-push animation from provider cards

Usage Accuracy & Pricing

• Fixed MiniMax quota math and 0% → 100% progression
• Corrected CNY → USD pricing plus missing model definitions
• Improved Gemini session-log syncing accuracy
• Resolved session-based usage entries being shown as unknown providers

Usage Editor & Skills UI Regressions

• Fixed usage query fields being reset while editing extractor code (#1771, thanks @if-nil)
• Corrected broken skills.sh links and empty descriptions
• Fixed auto-query default interval (5 min) and number-input clearing in usage configuration

Chinese Skills Terminology

• Unified Skills-related labels across settings panels in the zh locale so storage and sync options use consistent wording

Environment & Preset Compatibility

• Added Bun global bin detection in CLI scan (#1742, thanks @makoMakoGo)
• Adapted to the oh-my-openagent rename with backward compatibility (#1746, thanks @yovinchen)
• Corrected the OpenCode kimi-for-coding preset (#1738, thanks @makoMakoGo)
• Gated Gemini keychain parsing to macOS only
• Fixed an OpenClaw serializer panic on empty collections (#1724, thanks @yovinchen)

Linux UI Unresponsive on Startup

Fixed a long-standing Linux bug where the window UI (including native title bar buttons) couldn't receive clicks until the user manually maximized and restored the window.

• Root causes: (1) Tauri webview did not acquire keyboard focus after show() on Linux, so the first click was consumed by X11/Wayland click-to-activate (Tauri #10746, wry #637); (2) GTK surface's input region failed to renegotiate on the visible:false → show() path under some WebKitGTK/compositor combinations, leaving the entire window unresponsive
• Mitigations: Set WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 at startup, and added a new linux_fix::nudge_main_window helper that performs set_focus + a ±1px no-op resize ~200ms after show, equivalent to a visually invisible "maximize-and-restore"
• Coverage: Wired into all window-re-show paths — normal startup, deeplink, single_instance, tray show_main, and lightweight-mode exit

Linux Drag Region on Header

• Removed data-tauri-drag-region from the top header bar on Linux to avoid triggering gtk_window_begin_move_drag paths affected by Tauri #13440 under Wayland
• macOS drag behavior is preserved

OpenCode / OpenClaw Stream Check Edge Cases

• Fixed custom-header passthrough
• OpenClaw custom auth-header detection
• Bedrock error messaging
• OpenCode default baseURL fallback handling

Duplicate Toast on Provider Switch

• Fixed double toast notifications (proxy-required warning followed by switch-success) when switching to Copilot, ChatGPT, or OpenAI-format providers with the proxy not running

Session Search Accuracy & Chinese Support

• Fixed session search result truncation across providers
• Switched FlexSearch tokenizer to full mode for proper Chinese substring matching

Adaptive Thinking Reasoning Effort

• Fixed resolve_reasoning_effort() mapping adaptive thinking to xhigh instead of incorrectly using high in OpenAI format conversions

Thinking Model Fallback Display

• Fixed the Claude provider form showing an empty Thinking model field after saving only a main model by applying read-only fallback to ANTHROPIC_MODEL (#1984, thanks @yovinchen)

Auth Tab Localization

• Fixed missing i18n translation keys for the settings auth tab label across all locale bundles (#1985, thanks @yovinchen)

Schema Migration Guard

• Fixed database migrations failing when skills or model_pricing tables did not exist by adding table-existence checks before ALTER and UPDATE operations
