System tray app to monitor AI provider usage in real time.
Built with Tauri 2 + Svelte 5. Inspired by CodexBar.
| Provider | Auth | What it tracks |
|---|---|---|
| Claude (Anthropic) | OAuth | Session, weekly & model limits |
| OpenAI | API Key | Billing usage & limits |
| Gemini (Google) | API Key | Quota usage |
| Codex | API Key | Token usage |
| xAI (Grok) | API Key | Token & balance usage |
- Tray icon changes color with usage level — cyan (ok), amber (warning), red (critical)
- Multi-provider tabs — switch between providers in one window
- Desktop notifications with configurable thresholds and per-window cooldowns
- Usage history with sparkline charts, exportable to JSON/CSV
- Secure storage — credentials in OS keyring (Windows Credential Manager / macOS Keychain / Linux Secret Service)
- Auto-refresh every 10 minutes (configurable), with client-side rate limiting
Prerequisites: Rust, Node.js 18+, and platform build tools (VS Build Tools on Windows, Xcode CLI on macOS, build-essential + libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev + libssl-dev + libayatana-appindicator3-dev on Linux).
