📖 About ClaudeBar

ClaudeBar is a desktop status indicator that keeps an eye on your Claude account usage — right from your menu bar, system tray, or panel. It shows your current session and weekly usage as two simple color-coded bars, so you always know where you stand without leaving your workflow. It works across macOS, Windows, and all major Linux desktop environments, with a consistent set of features on every platform. Sign-in is handled seamlessly, your credentials are stored securely by your operating system, and everything is configurable to suit your preferences.
