I kept running into limits on my Claude Code sessions (Especially with leading edge models)... the main cause being session hygiene, not clearing or compacting my sessions often enough. So I built this simple tool to show my current session status.

Could’ve asked Claude to put this in your status line.

Yes - we hook into that to add the cost/turn and the burn rate

My two cents: the README should feel effortless to read and easy to skim. For something this straightforward, I’d ideally want to grasp the key points without having to scroll much. Once it starts feeling longer than it needs to be, I tend to lose interest and I think I'm not the only one.

I built something similar but as a tray/cli and not just for usage. You can switch the login of CLIs like Codex, Claude, Vercel (if you're managing multiple accounts) etc

Yeah, the README seems like AI slop to me. That always makes me lose interest in a project because it seems so low-effort.

It is AI gen - and it's not so much of a project, more of a quick tool/status bar.
