Support multiple accounts per provider (e.g. two Claude accounts)

[dr-growth]

Use Case

I have two Claude accounts — a Team (work) account and a Max (personal) account — and I want to track usage for both simultaneously in OpenUsage.

Current Behavior

Each provider is a singleton plugin. The Claude plugin reads from a single credential source (~/.claude/.credentials.json or the Claude Code-credentials keychain entry). There's no way to configure a second instance pointing to a different credential.

Workaround

I duplicated the claude plugin folder as claude-personal, changed the id/name in plugin.json, and pointed plugin.js at a different keychain service (Claude Code-credentials-4b48a25f from a Claude Code profile). This works but:

• Doesn't receive upstream plugin updates
• Requires manual file editing
• New instances get auto-disabled in settings.json

Proposal

Support multiple instances of the same provider, either through:

1. Plugin-level config — Allow plugin.json to declare configurable fields (e.g. credentialSource) that the user can set in the settings UI
2. Instance cloning in the UI — A "Duplicate" option in plugin settings that creates a named copy and lets the user pick which credential/profile to use
3. Profile-aware credential discovery — Auto-detect multiple Claude Code profiles from the keychain (entries matching Claude Code-credentials-*) and show each as a separate instance

Option 3 would be the most seamless UX — zero config for users who already have multiple Claude Code profiles.

This likely applies to other providers too (e.g. multiple Cursor workspaces, multiple Copilot orgs).

Working Implementation (for reference)

Here's how I got this working locally by duplicating the Claude plugin. Sharing in case it's useful for implementing native support.

1. Created plugins/claude-personal/plugin.json

Only changes from the original: id and name.

{
  "schemaVersion": 1,
  "id": "claude-personal",
  "name": "Claude (Personal)",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "entry": "plugin.js",
  "icon": "icon.svg",
  "brandColor": "#DE7356",
  "links": [
    { "label": "Status", "url": "https://status.anthropic.com/" },
    { "label": "Console", "url": "https://console.anthropic.com/" }
  ],
  "lines": [
    { "type": "progress", "label": "Session", "scope": "overview", "primaryOrder": 1 },
    { "type": "progress", "label": "Weekly", "scope": "overview" },
    { "type": "progress", "label": "Sonnet", "scope": "detail" },
    { "type": "progress", "label": "Extra usage spent", "scope": "detail" },
    { "type": "text", "label": "Today", "scope": "detail" },
    { "type": "text", "label": "Yesterday", "scope": "detail" },
    { "type": "text", "label": "Last 30 Days", "scope": "detail" }
  ]
}

2. plugins/claude-personal/plugin.js

Copied from plugins/claude/plugin.js with only 3 lines changed:

- const CRED_FILE = "~/.claude/.credentials.json"
- const KEYCHAIN_SERVICE = "Claude Code-credentials"
+ const CRED_FILE = "~/.claude/.credentials-personal.json"
+ const KEYCHAIN_SERVICE = "Claude Code-credentials-<profile_hash>"

- globalThis.__openusage_plugin = { id: "claude", probe }
+ globalThis.__openusage_plugin = { id: "claude-personal", probe }

Claude Code stores per-profile credentials in the macOS keychain with the pattern Claude Code-credentials-<hash>. Each profile gets its own entry.

3. Settings

The new plugin was auto-detected but added to the disabled list in settings.json. Had to manually remove it from disabled to make it appear.

What a native implementation could look like

Rather than duplicating plugins, the Claude plugin could auto-discover all keychain entries matching Claude Code-credentials*, then return results for each as a separate section. The plan type (team, max, pro, etc.) is already available in the credential data and could be used as a label to distinguish accounts.

#166 #182 and similar

this isn't planned for the time being

for claude specifically, this would likely be possible - but it is my understanding that claude doesn't store multiple by default? you can only log in / out?

We decided again it for the time being.
