CodexBar is a tiny menu‑bar application for macOS (and a Qt desktop app for Linux) that displays real‑time usage limits, credit balances and reset timers for AI coding providers such as OpenAI Codex and Claude. It visualises token consumption and spending without storing passwords.

Use cases

  • track remaining tokens for OpenAI Codex while coding
  • monitor Claude usage limits to avoid hitting quotas
  • view reset countdowns for weekly or monthly AI API windows
  • check credit balances and spending across multiple AI providers
  • receive live status alerts for provider incidents

When to choose

  • You need a lightweight, always‑visible indicator of AI token usage on macOS or Linux.
  • You work with multiple AI coding providers and want to plan tasks around reset windows.
  • You prefer a privacy‑first solution that reuses existing authentication sessions.

When to avoid

  • You require deep analytics or custom reporting beyond simple usage bars.
  • You need support for non‑coding AI services (e.g., image generation) not listed as providers.
  • You are on Windows or need a web‑based dashboard.
