🎉 First official release of Claude Usage

A lightweight PowerToys Command Palette extension that monitors your Claude Code subscription in real-time.

What's Included

  • Live dock band showing your 5-hour session % remaining
  • Stats page with weekly and per-model usage limits
  • Smart alerts — icon turns orange when usage drops below 20%
  • Zero telemetry — only talks to Anthropic's official API

Install

  1. Clone/download this repo.
  2. Make sure you have prerequisites installed.
  3. Run build-and-install.ps1 from PowerShell (normal user, no admin needed)
  4. Open Command Palette (Win+alt+space)
  5. Add the live band to your dock (this is the main feature — don't skip it):
    CmdPal → ⚙️ Settings → Dock → add the "Claude Usage" band.
    You should now see a live Claude 93% indicator in your dock.

Heads up: the extension exposes two surfaces, both from the same app:

  • Dock band — the live percentage indicator (the main feature). Add it in step 5.
  • "Claude usage" command — a searchable entry that opens the full stats page
    (session/weekly/per-model progress bars). This is just a bonus way to open the
    same stats page the band links to; it's not a second program.

Requirements

  • Windows 11 (22H2+)
  • PowerToys Command Palette (v0.9+)
  • Claude Code with valid OAuth token
  • .NET 9 SDK or the Windows SDK (dotnet.exe/makeappx.exe/signtool.exe)

Privacy

Your OAuth token stays local. Only Anthropic's usage API is called, no cloud storage or telemetry.
