Summary

This PR addresses issue #978 by providing a comprehensive architecture analysis for supporting multiple Claude MAX subscriptions. As the issue states: "We should carefully think about all possible architecture options to correctly and safely implement that before writing any code."

Key Contributions

  • New documentation: docs/MULTI_SUBSCRIPTION_ARCHITECTURE.md (337 lines)
  • 5 Architecture Options Analyzed with pros, cons, and implementation effort
  • Phased Implementation Roadmap from quick wins to production scale
  • Open Questions for stakeholder discussion

Architecture Options Evaluated

Option Description Effort Isolation
A Profile Switching at Bot Level Medium None (global state)
B Docker-Based Profile Isolation High Full (containers)
C Environment Variable-Based Selection Low None
D Temp Directory Isolation Medium-High Process-level
E Kubernetes Multi-Pod High Full (pods)

Recommended Phased Approach

  1. Phase 1: Environment variable approach (quick win, minimal changes)
  2. Phase 2: Temp directory isolation (true parallelism)
  3. Phase 3: Kubernetes multi-pod (production scale)

Open Questions

  1. How to safely store/transfer multiple subscription credentials?
  2. Should we track usage per profile and report in /limits?
  3. How to detect and handle exhausted/invalid profiles?
  4. Should users choose profiles or should it be automatic?

Test Plan

  • Documentation follows project style guidelines
  • Prettier formatting passes
  • ESLint passes
  • Stakeholder review and feedback on architecture options

  - Option A: Profile Switching at Bot Level
  - Option B: Docker-Based Profile Isolation
  - Option C: Environment Variable-Based Profile Selection
  - Option D: Temporary Directory Isolation with Profile Copy
  - Option E: Kubernetes Multi-Pod with Service Mesh
- Recommend phased implementation approach
- List open questions for stakeholder discussion
- Reference claude-profiles tool and existing Docker/Helm infrastructure

This is a documentation-only change addressing issue #978 requirement
