API Bar 0.4.7
API Bar 0.4.7
First public release. A native macOS menu bar companion for tracking AI provider balances alongside CodexBar.
Providers
- Vertex AI / Google Cloud — active billing credits and trial grants from the Cloud Console billing GraphQL endpoint.
- Google AI Studio — live Gemini credits from
GetGdpProfileAndBenefits, with project spend-cap fallback. - Fireworks AI — prepaid inference balance, including automatic Cognito token refresh.
- Cerebras — Cloud session validation and platform balance.
- Crowbot — chat/API credit balance with account pinning.
- Refuseless — prepaid USD balance read from the console, with the top-up ledger (amount + bonus) as the 100% reference.
- Custom / any API — add unsupported providers by name or cURL using the on-device Apple Foundation Model.
Highlights
- Built-in updates — checks GitHub Releases, shows this changelog window, and installs in place. No appcast or extra hosting.
- Opt-in onboarding — a fresh install starts with no providers selected; nothing is tracked until you choose it.
- Automatic 100% reference — inferred from the latest payment, top-up, or grant, and editable per provider.
- Accurate units — money is parsed per provider with explicit unit handling (cents, micro-dollars, and Google's
units/nanos) so totals can't be misread by orders of magnitude. - Merged or separate icons — one compact gauge with a provider switcher, or one status item per provider.
Privacy
- Sessions are imported from Brave and stored in the macOS Keychain.
- Background refresh never prompts for Keychain access.
- No telemetry, no third-party servers.
- The test suite runs against a throwaway directory and never reads or deletes your real saved sessions.
