aimgr coordinates AI account credentials across the three-machine pool.
The shared source of truth is Redis on agents at Amir's Mac Studio over Tailscale. Local tool files are projections only:
- Redis URL for remote clients:
redis://amirs-mac-studio:6380 - Redis URL on
agents@amirs-mac-studioitself:redis://127.0.0.1:6380 - fallback Tailnet IP:
redis://100.96.80.106:6380 - local config:
~/.aimgr/config.yaml - local-only adjunct state:
~/.aimgr/local-state.json - legacy
~/.aimgr/secrets.json: backup artifact only; runtime commands ignore it
The Redis cutover is intentionally breaking and non-reverse-compatible. Runtime credential coordination no longer has file ownership, SSH authority pulls, or promote-back flows.
Configure each machine to point at the same Redis primary and key prefix:
Remote clients use the Tailscale hostname:
aim redis configure \
--url redis://amirs-mac-studio:6380 \
--key-prefix aimgr:v1: \
--primary-host agents@amirs-mac-studio \
--transport tailscaleThe Redis host itself, agents@amirs-mac-studio, connects to its own container over localhost:
aim redis configure \
--url redis://127.0.0.1:6380 \
--key-prefix aimgr:v1: \
--primary-host agents@amirs-mac-studio \
--transport tailscaleCheck the attachment:

aim redis snapshotUse aim redis export --out <snapshot.json> for a reviewable backup. A reviewed snapshot can seed a
new Redis prefix with aim redis import --in <snapshot.json>. Generic import accepts Claude policy-only
candidate records, but rejects Claude credential and identity material. Complete Claude credentials
enter Redis through contained aim login <label>, or through the per-label leased
aim claude capture-native and aim claude import-native boundaries.

aim pi useThe label-free Claude presets select only unlocked readable accounts. fable
ranks by Fable/Sonnet usage and uses five-hour usage as its tie-break;
opus ranks by the shared five-hour usage.
Claude resume uses the session's recorded account by default. Add
--account <label> to fork onto an exact account; combine it with
--switch-account fable|opus to override the resumed model preset. Session
names are exact, case-insensitive matches and must be quoted when they contain
spaces; ambiguous names require a row number or thread ID.
aim claude inventory is the instant account-coverage view for Redis-backed Claude labels. It reads
the configured AIM Redis credential records once and makes zero Anthropic, BrowserOS, Keychain,
native-file, or Claude CLI calls. Candidate-only policy records remain visible as non-ready rows;
complete, expired, incomplete, blocked, and identity-conflicting records remain distinguishable.
Local Claude directories and browser profiles are projections or enrollment surfaces, never account
names or inventory authority.
aim claude status and its exact aim claude usage alias accept only canonical Anthropic labels in
the shared Redis store. Invalid labels fail before external I/O. Unknown labels fail after the one
Redis read and before any provider request. Candidate-only, incomplete, or expired credentials are
reported locally and never sent to Anthropic.
The usage commands are browserless and cookie-free: they do not inspect browser state, invoke a
model, rotate credentials, or fall back to claude.ai. A normal run reuses the strictly allowlisted
provider-usage section in AIM's existing ~/.aimgr/redis-cache.json. An uncached run makes exactly
one no-retry OAuth usage GET per selected ready account, with at most three requests in flight;
--fresh bypasses a fresh success entry while preserving the one-request-per-account limit.
Transient failures are briefly backed off, and usage observed within the prior hour may be shown
only when clearly marked stale. The cache is written atomically with owner-only (0600) permissions.
Human output uses an account column, and JSON uses accounts[].label plus missingAccounts.
Neither schema nor the provider-usage cache contains tokens, authorization headers, raw Redis
credentials, email addresses, account or organization UUIDs, identity/policy objects, native paths,
Keychain identifiers, browser-profile names, raw provider errors, or full provider responses.
Only canonical labels, closed plan metadata, credential/auth states, rate-limit percentages and
resets, bounded timestamps, cache age, and fixed error classifications are exposed.
Claude access-token expiry is not the same thing as subscription inactivity. credential_expired
means the stored access credential needs maintenance; stale_auth means Anthropic rejected it.
Neither state by itself proves that billing was cancelled. Initial login or genuine reauthentication
may use the approved BrowserOS/native protocol, but a complete identity-checked native bundle must
then be captured into Redis. After capture, Redis is the authority and each managed Claude home is a
derived per-label projection whose newer token rotations are published back with Redis CAS. Claude
capture, import, and run share one per-label lease. Managed runs retain a durable uncertainty fence
until the exact supervised Claude child exits cleanly without rotation or a genuinely new
access/refresh token pair is published as that fence's explicit successor.
Each normal managed launch also inherits the machine's complete user-level
Claude MCP definitions, personal skills, enabled user plugins, and user hooks
at launch time. AIM passes field-only MCP/hook overlays through Claude's native
options; credentials, sessions, project trust, and unrelated user settings
remain label-isolated.
Sakana Fugu / Fugu Ultra are API-key accounts (no OAuth). Configure one account name plus its API key per Sakana subscription. Keys are stored only in the shared Redis credential store; status/list output shows a redacted fingerprint, never the raw key:
aim sakana add <account-name> [--key <api-key>] [--tier standard|pro|max|payg] [--subscription <name>] [--notes <text>]
aim sakana use <account-name>
aim sakana list [--json]
aim sakana show <account-name>
aim sakana remove <account-name>Provide the key with --key, by piping it on stdin (echo "$KEY" | aim sakana add pro1), or
interactively when prompted. The raw key is never echoed back and never written to local-state.json.
aim sakana use <account-name> preserves unrelated ~/.codex/.env lines, updates only
SAKANA_API_KEY, writes the file as 0600, and records only a redacted local receipt.
