MeterBar

A tiny native utility for people who burn through AI coding quotas. It reads local provider state, shows the tightest limit in your menu bar, and keeps the source open.

meterbar.dev

Open-source macOS menu bar telemetry for Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Cursor usage limits.

Built like a utility, distributed like open source.

The page is intentionally straightforward: show the product, link the source, and make installation obvious.

Menu bar signal

The tightest quota is always visible without opening dashboards or provider pages.

Native widgets

Small, medium, and large widgets keep the same provider state visible in Notification Center.

Provider aware

Tracks Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Cursor from their local auth and usage surfaces.

Private by default

Credentials stay on the Mac. The landing page exists to point people at the source and releases.

Install from the repo. Fork if useful.

These are distribution pages, not a funnel. The app stays useful as proof of taste, shipping cadence, and open-source surface area.

macOS 26+ target while the app is under active development.

Reads from CLI/provider state already on the machine.

Unsigned builds may need the usual first-launch quarantine bypass until Developer ID is finished.
