v1.3.0
Desktop / system widget now works
You can now use Claudemon as a native macOS desktop widget (Notification Center → Edit Widgets → Claude Usage, available in small and medium sizes) — a great alternative for anyone who doesn't want the floating widget.
What changed
- Fixed the App Group data bridge so the bundled WidgetKit system widget actually shows your live usage instead of an empty "Open Claudemon" placeholder. The non-sandboxed app now resolves the team-prefixed App Group container, and the app (writer) + widget (reader) converge on the same shared cache.
- Added a hint in the menu panel pointing to the Notification Center widget.
- Internal: ordered App Group container resolver + diagnostic logging.
The floating widget and menu bar are unchanged.
Install
- Homebrew:
brew install --cask ardabalkandev/tap/claudemon(updates to 1.3.0 shortly after release) - Direct: download
