Claude Code Usage Monitor v2 is here 🎉

We’ve released Claude Code Usage Monitor v2, the biggest update to the project so far.

The original monitor was designed to answer one simple question: “How much usage do I have left?” V2 keeps that quick, always-visible experience, while making the widget substantially more flexible and personal.

What’s new in v2

• A new native settings dashboard
• Theme Studio, with a live canvas, scene tree, and inspector
• Custom widgets built from text, data bars, images, shapes, backgrounds, borders, and nested layers
• Flexible placement across taskbars, system trays, monitors, desktops, and floating windows
• Improved multi-monitor support
• Custom context menus and mouse actions
• Expressions for dynamic layout, visibility, usage values, and reset countdowns
• Theme import and export, including packaged image assets
• A bundled editable Minecraft theme to use as a starting point

The familiar Classic v1 appearance remains the default, so upgrading does not mean you have to redesign anything. Theme Studio is there when you want to make the monitor your own.

V2 continues to support Claude Code, Codex, and Google Antigravity usage.

I love this. How can I change the default 1h in the right with something like {claude.session.reset.hours} hr ? I cannot edit the default 1h (remaining).

[ggatica-85]

What I intend to do, is to have hour and minutes, like the image attached. I managed to create a text layer and add it, but I cannot delete or update the current time that appears 3h .

Ah I see. There is a dark mode and light mode text layer so perhaps you are updating the wrong one. When you hover over the layer it should be outlined in purple in the Preview to know you have the right one. You might also want to turn on 'Live apply' so you can see the changes right away.
The layer to edit is both 'dark Claude Code 5-hour value' and 'light Claude Code 5-hour value' setting the Layer > Text to:
{claude.session.percentage:0}% · {claude.session.reset.hours:0.0} hr
That will give you 5% · 3.5 hr

thanks for the update. The code works perfectly. But the 'dark Claude Code 5-hour value' and 'light Claude Code 5-hour value' change the 5h and 7d text, not the current % and time left to reset. I think that they are embeded from the code and not via layered texts.

[CodeZeno]

Ah the layer is called 'dark Claude Code 5-hour value' notice the 'value' at the end, it's inside the provider, you'll need to expand the provider layer to see it's children.

got it! thanks. Any way I could do something like:

when time < 60m then {claude.session:usage_line}
else {claude.session.percentage:0}% · {claude.session.reset.hours:0.0} hr

Thanks for the support. Great widget.
