Integrations

accshift can be driven from outside the app: by other programs, hotkey tools, a Stream Deck, or your own scripts. Both integrations are controlled from Settings > General > Integrations and are enabled by default.

accshift:// deep links

The desktop app registers the accshift:// URL scheme. Opening a link switches the account, with the same toasts and visual feedback as a manual switch:

accshift://switch/<platform>/<account>

<account> matches the account id first, then a unique username, then a unique display name (case-insensitive). URL-encode special characters (%20 for spaces). Examples:

accshift://switch/steam/bob
accshift://switch/steam/76561198000000002
accshift://switch/riot/main%20smurf

Ways to trigger one:

  • A browser bookmark.
  • A Stream Deck "Website" action.
  • AutoHotkey: Run accshift://switch/steam/bob.
  • A script: start (Windows) or xdg-open (Linux) with the link.

If the app is not running, the link launches it first. Links are ignored while the app is PIN-locked. Turn the whole scheme off with the Allow accshift:// links toggle.

CLI

The accshift command-line binary lists and switches accounts from a terminal, with a stable JSON output for scripts. It shares config and accounts with the GUI, and an exclusive lock keeps the two from colliding.

accshift list steam
accshift switch steam bob --invisible

Full commands, flags, JSON schema and exit codes: CLI. The Allow the accshift CLI toggle disables list and switch (they then exit with code 7).

Choosing between deep links and the CLI

  • Deep link: drives the GUI, gives visual feedback, no output. Best for hotkeys and Stream Deck.
  • CLI: returns output and exit codes you can check. Best for scripts and automation.

CS2 stats bridge

A separate, optional integration: accshift can display CS2 level, XP and weekly care-package status on Steam account cards, fetched from an HTTP endpoint you configure. The endpoint contract (routes, request and response shapes) is documented on CS2 Stats Bridge.
