Luigis-meter – Claude Code Max quota in your statusline

by lgreco·Apr 6, 2026·2 points·0 comments

AI Analysis

MidNiche Gem

Claude Code quota in your statusline, but only matters if you hit Max limits.

Strengths
  • Zero runtime dependencies — pure bash, jq, awk, find, date already on macOS and Linux.
  • 30-second cache with under 10ms warm reads keeps statusline updates snappy.
  • Color-coded warnings (green/yellow/red) give at-a-glance quota health without parsing numbers.
Weaknesses
  • Only useful for Claude Code Max subscribers — Pro users won't hit these limits.
  • Reads local transcripts which means it estimates rather than querying actual API quota.

cc-costline – See your Claude Code spend right in the statusline

It does one thing and does it cleanly: inject a compact statusline that shows tokens → dollar estimate, context usage coloring, 5h/7d limit progress, and a rolling period total (with optional ccclub rank). The zero-config behavior — silently omitting integrations you don't have, auto-reading OAuth from the macOS keychain, and writing safe hooks into ~/.claude/settings.json — is smart and pragmatic. This is narrowly useful (only Claude Code users), but the UX decisions (color thresholds, single-line density, cache strategy) show real attention to terminal workflows.
