The situation

Anyone working against a usage quota all day wants to see it without breaking flow. Nothing showed it in the menu bar, so we built the thing we wanted and gave it away.

What we built

  • Native menu bar app in Swift and SwiftUI, universal binary, notarised
  • Live session and weekly usage with threshold alerts
  • Claude service status surfaced in the same place
  • Distributed free through GitHub releases and a Homebrew tap
