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: migration input or backup artifact only
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 snapshotMigration is the only path that reads old credential stores. It is read-only until the reviewed apply step.
For the hard cutover, this machine's current local Codex auth files and archived AIM snapshots are the bootstrap authority. Do not merge old Redis session:*, label:*, or machine:* rows back into the new store; those rows are backup-and-cleanup material only.
Collect the local bootstrap bundle on this machine:
aim redis migrate collect --out <bundle.json>Plan and apply once from the reviewed bootstrap bundle directory:
aim redis migrate plan --from <bundle-dir> --out <plan.json>
aim redis migrate apply --plan <plan.json> --confirm-breaking-cutover
aim redis migrate cleanup-legacy --confirm-breaking-cutover
aim redis export --out <post-cutover-export.json>The migration planner preserves currently usable Codex credentials. Generic Redis import may seed
Claude policy-only candidate records, but generic import and migration apply reject Claude credential
and identity material. A complete Claude credential enters Redis through contained
aim login <label>, or through the per-label leased aim claude capture-native and
aim claude import-native boundaries for legacy ingestion.

aim pi useaim 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.
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.
aim codex run --tend runs attached Codex sessions through an AIMGR-owned low-latency foreground
relay. It does not use tmux, a private Codex app-server, or Codex --remote. Tended runs require
Python 3 for the small repo-owned PTY helpers; set AIMGR_PYTHON_BIN if python3 is not the desired
interpreter. --no-attach keeps the non-attached automation PTY helper path instead of the human
foreground relay.
--tmux-session is obsolete and fails loudly. Codex pass-through args after -- must not include
--remote or --remote-auth-token-env.

Redis records own shared credential truth:
- credentials: provider, label, credential, identity, shared browser/reauth/pool policy, health, and audit provenance
- meta: migration and cutover metadata
~/.aimgr/local-state.json owns local-only facts:
- target projection receipts
- active target metadata
- OpenClaw assignments and exclusions
- Codex/Pi/Claude/Hermes local history
- local concrete browser bindings
Local target auth files are derived outputs:
- Codex:
~/.codex/auth.json - Claude:
~/.claude/.credentials.jsonand~/.claude.json - Pi:
~/.pi/agent/auth.json - Hermes: explicit
auth.jsonpaths - OpenClaw: configured agent auth stores and session metadata
