Show HN: macOS menu bar gauges for your Claude Code quota

giancarlostoro

Honestly drives me crazy that CC doesnt show this on the bottom status bar a simple percentage “Weekly Quota Left: 99%” would be useful. Also noticed and idk if it was me or some mishap, a lot of my Claude sessions were not autocompacting, maybe its /loops fault not sure, but it made sense why I finally reached my weekly limit so insanely quickly recently.

I recommend people just update their Claude Code status line so that changes like this are in Claude Code itself. https://www.tyleo.com/blog/love-letter-to-the-claude-code-do...

Im using https://github.com/mryll/claudebar myself on my Linux desktop setup using Hyprland and Waybar. Will try this one out on my laptop though!

Unexpected: reading the code was entertaining (no sarcasm): pixel fonts, png encoder.

> curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/grzegorz-raczek-unit8/clau... | bash Can we stop with this way of installing things? This is already on brew and it’s a menu bar app. Just let me download it instead of executing some arbitrary bash script When did this trend start?

I use CodexBar, which supports more providers: https://github.com/steipete/codexbar

I use codeburn, has both terminal and menu bar versions. Works quite well - https://github.com/getagentseal/codeburn

CodexBar seems to do that good enough (and supports Codex), plus https://github.com/daniel3303/ClaudeCodeStatusLine this also adds data straight into CC

What is benefit of this over https://github.com/steipete/codexbar ?

tuo-lei

how does this pull the quota data? reading from the CC process output or is there an actual API for it?

lol how many of these things are there. I've been using https://github.com/f-is-h/usage4claude which includes Codex usage (I use Claude and Codex).

Created the same tool some time ago for Codex and Claude code: showing percents for both in the menu bar and detailed stats when you click on it. Using it literally every day, feel free to try: https://github.com/max2697/RateLimited Feedback greatly appreciated!

I made recently a similar thing https://jmkr.es/claude-usage/

OpenUsage is really nice for this kind of things.
