-# Second Account Workers
+# Extra account workers
 
 Use this skill when a task needs a local Claude worker and the session should
 save main account usage.
 
+## Configure extra profiles
+
+Run `claude_account_profile.py --profile-name NAME` for each extra profile.
+The script creates `<profiles root>/NAME` and the `claude-NAME.cmd` launcher.
+Running it again with the same name leaves the profile and launcher in place.
+
+To set worker order, put `extra-profiles.json` in the main Claude home. Write a
+JSON list of profile names, with the first choice first. Names use letters,
+digits, hyphens, and underscores. The worker uses the existing second profile
+when the file is absent. When the file exists, its list sets the full order.
+Keep `main` and `wait` out of the list because they name picker decisions.
+The picker tries each profile after checking the main account's expiring usage.
+For direct picker calls, `--second-config-dir` sets the first extra profile and
+each `--extra-config-dir` adds another in the order given.
+Picker JSON prints `config_dir` for the choice and meters under `main`, `second`,
+`extra_2`, and later labels.

+The operator runs the elevated part by hand, so hand it over as one block they paste into an
