Menu bar style options + a tidier panel

Make Claudemon's menu-bar footprint as small as you like.

Menu bar style

Choose what the menu-bar item shows (Settings → ⚙︎ → Menu bar style):

  • Icon + Text (default) — gauge icon + current session percent (e.g. ◐ 42%)
  • Text only — just the percent (42%), the most compact way to keep the number
  • Icon only — just the gauge icon

Your choice is remembered across launches.

Tidier panel

The panel now opens clean — just your usage and the Refresh/Quit actions. A new ⚙︎ gear in the panel header reveals (or hides) the settings: Menu bar style, Floating widget, Launch at login, and Usage alerts. Collapsed by default.

Note

A menu-bar font-size control and a colored icon were explored but left out — SwiftUI's MenuBarExtra can't honor custom font sizes or colored labels. The in-panel bars and the floating/desktop widgets keep their existing green/yellow/red coloring.

Install

  • Homebrew: brew upgrade --cask claudemon (the cask bumps to 1.4.0 shortly after release)
  • Direct: download Claudemon.dmg below, drag to Applications.

Requires macOS 14+ and the Claude Code CLI signed in to your own subscription.
