UsageBar

Privacy
UsageBar is a Mac menu bar app I made. There’s no account with me. Your quota, credentials, and file paths don’t go to a UsageBar server — there isn’t one.
What it reads on this Mac
To draw the meters it talks to tools you already installed:
- Codex CLI over its local app server.
- Claude Code from Keychain or
~/.claude, then Anthropic’s usage endpoint. - Cursor’s local login database, then Cursor’s usage API.
- OpenCode Go’s
auth.json, then OpenCode’s usage API. - Devin CLI’s
~/.local/share/devin/credentials.toml, then Cognition’s usage API.
Those companies process that traffic under their own policies. I don’t get a copy.
What’s stored here
Preferences, a short quota history (used to notice surprise resets), and a Tibo Watch cache. All of that lives in the app’s container on your Mac.
Network
Provider usage endpoints, plus a public JSON feed of reset announcements on GitHub. That’s it.

This is a developer tool. It’s not for anyone under 13.
