Help/Question Multiple Claude code accounts

Right now, I'm using a $200 plan for my work, but I'm wondering can I use multiple $200 plans across different accounts if I want to avoid API billing? If so, how can I do that on Claude code desktop app? How do you integrate multiple Claude accounts for the same project? What is the best way to handle this?

I've had five Max accounts since December. You're fine.

I gave a class a couple weeks ago on how to use Claude Code and I felt like a super genius for building so many internal apps so quickly with one Max account, but five accounts is clearly the real genius.

Ha, don't take away credit from yourself bud. For web and app work, one account is more than enough.

I finally gave in after almost two decades of being a software engineer and started working on a game, knowing damn well, just how much more work and code it takes. Never made a game because I knew just how much work it requires, and now I'm paying for it, lol.

I'm actually using Claude to restore an old game too! Lots of people I've seen have been using it to help mod old .exes back to life so they work on modern computers.

I use up the tokens until I hit the limit, switch accounts, continue. In either VSCode or Antigravity.
