THE SIDEBAR:
Everything Claude Code keeps in ~/.claude/, organized, searchable, and clickable.
Browse, search, and resume every past Claude Code session by project and git branch. Active sessions pin to the top with live status dots. Pin, rename, fork, import, export, or restore a whole workspace of terminals at once.
Switch between Claude accounts without a full logout and login. Activity heatmap, token usage across 7-day, 30-day, and all-time, and opt-in quota bars showing your real 5-hour and 7-day subscription windows.
Enable, disable, delete, or inspect MCP servers with no JSON editing. API keys and secrets are masked automatically, and an auth-health banner surfaces connectors that need re-auth.
Global, project, and plugin-shipped skills, each tagged with a scope badge. Copy, open, delete, or launch Claude with a skill in one click, in a terminal or the extension chat.
Inspect, toggle, edit, or remove automation hooks across global, project, and local scopes, with the full command shown before it runs.
Built-in slash commands plus your own from .claude/commands/ and installed plugins. Copy a command or launch it straight into Claude Code chat.
Browse project and plugin agents with Sonnet, Opus, and Haiku model badges and description previews, so you know what each agent does before you reach for it.
Tune Claude Code without hunting through settings files. Pick the model, set tool-use confirmation and reasoning effort, edit per-scope permissions, and roll back with settings-history snapshots.
LOCAL-FIRST:
No analytics, no accounts, no background traffic. The extension reads ~/.claude/ and renders in a VS Code webview. Nothing is collected.
Nothing is ever sent, not even the Quota card. Its 5-hour and 7-day numbers come from Claude Code's own statusline, cached locally and read from disk. The extension never calls Anthropic or reads your token.
Apache 2.0, public on GitHub. Read every line, fork it, file an issue. The privacy claim is auditable, not a promise.
/logout then /login to switch accountsFAQ:
No. Zero network calls, ever. It reads ~/.claude/ and renders in a VS Code webview under a strict CSP. The Account tab's Quota card is local too: your 5-hour and 7-day numbers are computed by Claude Code and shown in its statusline, and an opt-in tap caches that render to a file the extension reads from disk. It never calls Anthropic and never reads your OAuth token.
Yes. It is a standard VS Code extension. Install from the Marketplace on VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and Antigravity, or from Open VSX on VSCodium, Theia, and Gitpod.
Yes. The Account tab includes a multi-account profile switcher that saves and swaps Claude logins without a full logout and login cycle.
Yes. Install Claude Code first. Either the CLI, the official VS Code extension, or both works. Claude Code Manager reads the shared ~/.claude/ directory, so sessions from either surface show up together.
In ~/.claude/, the same place Claude Code itself uses. The extension never copies, uploads, or duplicates your sessions.
