Several accounts and computers, one task list

Your personal and work accounts, your laptop, desktop and server: every task in one list, each run on the account and computer you pick.

The wisp launcher’s Run on menu: this computer and the machine studio both ticked, so the task runs in parallel on both

With two Claude Code accounts and three computers, the hard part is knowing what runs where and on whose plan. wisp keeps one task list for all of it. Add your second account in Settings → Agents and your other computers in Machines, then pick per task where it runs and which account pays. Tasks on every computer land in the same list.

The manual way

# two logins, one folder each
claude                                        # your usual account
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.claude-work claude       # the other one

# and on each computer, its own terminals
ssh desktop    # tmux, worktrees, which account was this?
ssh devbox

It works, until you have a terminal per account per computer and per project. Nothing tells you which session runs on which plan, which one is waiting for an answer, or which one is done.

With wisp

  1. Start wisp.

  2. Add the second account. Settings → Agents → Add another Claude account (or Codex), as personal or work. It signs in with the CLI’s own sign-in into a folder of its own; settings, skills, MCP servers and transcripts are shared with your first account, the login never is. See work and personal accounts.
  3. Add your other computers. Machines → Reach this computer from anywhere on each one (no SSH, through wisp Cloud), or connect over SSH or Tailscale. See agents on several machines.
  4. Pick per task. In the launcher, Run on says which computer (or several at once), and the runner picker’s Account row says which account. A machine has its own accounts, so the row lists what’s signed in there.
  5. Read one list. Tasks from every computer and account join the same list, with the machine on the card. Questions from any of them come to Needs you, and to your phone with ntfy or Telegram.

Too many projects

  • Every project runs on every computer. A machine without a checkout gets one first: wisp reuses a clone of the same repo it finds there, or clones the project’s origin.
  • One task, several folders. ⌘/Ctrl-click another project in the launcher and the agent works in both, with a worktree per repo. Ship it opens a PR per repo with changes.
  • Move a task. Runs on next to the reply box moves your next follow-up and the task to another computer, with its branch and uncommitted work. See move a task.

Limits stay per account

Each account keeps its own 5-hour and weekly windows, and wisp doesn’t pool them. When one runs out, the task asks you: wait for the reset, continue on another of your accounts, hand it to another agent, or get extra usage. wisp never switches accounts on its own. Settings → Usage → Plan budget shows how much of each account’s windows is gone and which tasks used it; see where your usage went.

Questions

Can one task list show tasks running on other computers?

Yes. Tasks on every machine you added join the same list, with the machine on the card, and you answer, follow up or Ship it from there.

Can each computer use a different Claude account?

Yes. A machine has its own accounts; the runner picker lists the accounts signed in on the computer the task runs on.

Does wisp move a task to my other account at a limit?

No. The task asks you first: wait for the reset, continue on another of your accounts, hand it to another agent, or get extra usage.

Do I need SSH for my other computers?

No. Signed in to wisp Cloud, a computer holds a tunnel open to the grid and shows up in your other computers’ Machines. SSH and Tailscale work too.

Try it on your own repo

One command starts wisp in this folder. It runs the agent CLIs you already have, signed in as you.
