usage-dots

A Claude Code mod that shows your plan usage and context-window fill as small pie circles (○ ◔ ◑ ◕ ●) at the right, above the prompt. Green below 65%, yellow from 65%, red from 85%. Hover a gauge for details: reset time and 7-day usage, or tokens used and the biggest context category. While you type, the left of the band shows an estimate of the prompt's token cost (about 4 characters per token).

The usage and context gauges

The prompt token estimate beside the gauges

Install

In a terminal Claude Code session:

/plugin install usage-dots --marketplace DiegoHermosilloP/usage-dots

From a shell:

claude plugin install usage-dots --marketplace DiegoHermosilloP/usage-dots

Known limits

  • The prompt token count is an estimate (about 4 characters per token). Mods have no access to a real tokenizer.
  • Usage gauges appear only on a Claude subscription, and only after the first response reports them.
  • Hover details need a terminal that passes mouse events to Claude Code.

reply-quote: select text in the terminal and reply to it, like the desktop app's "Reply".
