1:1 mapping means no ambiguity about which account serves what</li>\n<li><strong>Both accounts always warm</strong> - No cold starts, instant responses for both paths</li>\n<li><strong>Quick Turn actually uses standby</strong> - Currently it bypasses Claude accounts entirely via provider abstraction!</li>\n<li><strong>Swap is cheap</strong> - Just reassign roles, no process killing needed</li>\n<li><strong>Removes legacy complexity</strong> - Symlink switcher, session pools, hot pools all become unnecessary</li>\n</ol>\n</div>\n\n<h3 style=\"color:#e5c07b;margin:20px 0 12px 0;\">Implementation Considerations</h3>\n<ul style=\"line-height:1.8;\">\n<li><span style=\"color:#e5c07b;\">⚠️</span> <strong>Quick Turn needs rewrite</strong> - Currently uses <code>getChatProvider()</code> with separate API keys, not Claude CLI accounts</li>\n<li><span style=\"color:#e5c07b;\">⚠️</span> <strong>Need to route Quick Turn to standby's hot session</strong> - Simple with new design</li>\n<li><span style=\"color:#98c379;\">✓</span> <strong>Account-aware hot sessions already exist</strong> - hot-claude.ts has <code>accountId</code> field</li>\n<li><span style=\"color:#98c379;\">✓</span> <strong>Sessions already have accountId</strong> -

The current system is indeed confused - Quick Turn doesn't even use Claude accounts, and the hot pool is designed for quantity not account diversity. Your 1:1 account-session design is simpler, eliminates dead code, and makes both accounts genuinely useful.</p>\n</div>",
