Accshift Files

accshift goes 1.0: three new platforms, Linux and macOS support, a CLI, personas, streamer mode, and a long list of hardening and performance work since 0.9.0.

New platforms

• GOG Galaxy account switcher (Windows)
• Jagex Launcher account switcher (Windows)
• Discord account switcher (Windows): full profile snapshots, no 5-account cap, native switcher slots survive
• Battle.net on macOS

Linux & macOS

• Steam switching on Linux: native, Flatpak and Snap installs
• Steam switching on macOS, with native titlebar and traffic lights
• Release bundles for both: deb, rpm, AppImage, dmg
• Secrets stored in the OS keyring (Secret Service on Linux, Keychain on macOS)
• Platforms without a client on the current OS are hidden from the build
• Longer graceful-shutdown window before force-killing Steam on unix; clearer error when registry.vdf is write-protected

CLI & automation

• New accshift CLI: platforms, list, switch with Steam flags (--online/--invisible, --graceful/--force, --admin/--no-admin, --launch-options)
• Table output on a TTY, stable JSON envelope when piped or with --json; typed exit codes
• Ships with the Windows installer and lands on PATH; standalone binaries per OS below
• accshift://switch/<platform>/<account> deep links
• Exclusive lock so GUI and CLI never collide
• CLI toggle in Settings

Features

• Personas: group one account per platform under an identity, switch them all in one click
• Streamer mode: auto-blur when OBS, Streamlabs, XSplit, Wirecast or Twitch Studio is running
• Command palette and keyboard navigation
• Switch & run game from the Steam context menu; remembers the last game per account
• CS2 stats bridge: level, XP and weekly case on Steam cards from a user-configured endpoint
• Roblox session health check: expired sessions get a badge before you switch
• Riot: supports the newer cookie-based (ssid) login format
• Bulk edit: paint-select accounts by dragging, bulk copy profile URLs
• Expanded folder sections view
• Onboarding tour, replayable from Settings > Privacy

UI

• Liquid glass themes: wallpaper-based backdrop, rim refraction, background blur and opacity controls
• Settings redesign: sidebar navigation, platform search, reworked general tab, help button
• Boot and panel entrance animations, plus an animations setting (system / on / off)
• Maximize/restore button, double-click-to-maximize titlebar
• Fixed context menu position and avatars reloading on window restore

Privacy & telemetry

• Opt-in telemetry with two independent modes (anonymous counters / install-scoped), consent dialog, in-app export and deletion
• Log upload removed: a Logs button opens the local folder instead; you attach files yourself

Security & hardening

• Several audit passes: PIN crypto, config write lock, atomic writes, VDF handling, webview-reachable surface, input validation on platform ids
• Steam client fully stopped before VDF edits; shutdown reliability fixes on all OSes
• CI actions pinned by SHA, least-privilege workflow permissions

Performance

• Boot IPC waterfall cut, I/O moved off the main thread
• Debounced search, async avatar decode, batched profile fetches

Install notes

• Windows: run the .exe installer (NSIS). The in-app updater takes over from there.
• Linux: install the .deb / .rpm, or chmod +x the .AppImage and run it.
• macOS (Apple Silicon): the app is not yet notarized. After copying Accshift.app to Applications, clear the quarantine flag once: xattr -cr /Applications/Accshift.app.
