CodeLimitRelay — Agent quota baton pass

When Claude Code hits its 5-hour limit, Codex picks up in the same terminal without breaking flow

Problem

Many developers subscribe to both Claude Code and Codex, but when one hits its 5-hour quota they must switch manually, breaking flow. Someone already built a terminal tool that lets Codex take over when Claude Code caps out, proving the switch pain is real for multi-subscription users.

Solution

A local terminal shell that detects when the current agent nears or hits its usage limit, then hands off session context to the next configured agent so work continues. Users set priority (e.g., Claude first, Codex fallback) and see consumption stats per subscription.

Users

Heavy developers and small teams holding multiple coding-agent subscriptions who frequently hit quotas.

MVP

Terminal wrapper reading Claude Code/Codex usage signals; auto-start fallback agent and pass context after cap; show daily consumption per subscription; one-key manual switch.

Revenue

One-time desktop purchase, or monthly subscription for multi-agent orchestration and team usage dashboards.

Why now

Coding-agent subscriptions are mainstream and running several in parallel is common, yet vendors won’t relay to each other—a gap giants won’t fill.
