Description
StackGauge is a private macOS menu bar app for tracking AI usage, limits, resets, and spend. The first release supports Claude Code, showing your 5-hour and weekly usage, which limit is currently constraining you, when it resets, and what your usage is costing. StackGauge is being built as a multi-provider usage dashboard, with support for more AI coding providers coming next.
