Description
UsageBuddy gives developers one place to track their Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor usage. Add multiple accounts, see remaining limits and reset times, and get alerts before you run out. Everything is visible in a simple desktop app, so you don’t have to open multiple tools or remember which account has usage left.

Could you build this?
Partial A basic desktop UI is easy to vibe-code, but reverse-engineering undocumented authentication flows, session cookie stores, and internal metering endpoints for third-party closed tools like Cursor and Claude Code requires ongoing reverse engineering.
What it would actually take: Requires an Electron or Tauri desktop wrapper that either reads local SQLite/LevelDB state databases and keychain tokens left by Cursor/Claude CLI or inspects network traffic/undocumented session endpoints. The challenging part is reverse engineering disparate vendor auth tokens, bypassing Cloudflare protections on non-public APIs, and constantly updating the scrapers when internal vendor schemas change.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a observability & eval tool for Media & entertainment yet.
