usage-bar

Draws your plan usage limits as bars above the prompt, and flags a window you are using faster than its clock (illustrative output, not real figures):

Usage  ·  amber = using a window faster than its clock  ·  session $12.19
Session █████████████████████░░░░░  79% used  ·  47% of time  ·  32 pts ahead of the clock  ·  resets in 2h 40m
Week    ███░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░  10% used  ·  61% of time  ·  resets in 2d 18h
  • One bar per limit window the engine reports: Session (5 hours), Week (7 days), and Spend for a gateway spend limit. The colour says which window it is. The solid part is what you have used, the shaded part is what is left.
  • % of time is how much of the window has already passed, worked out from its reset time.
  • The flag compares the two printed numbers. More than 5 points ahead turns % used amber and adds N pts ahead of the clock. More than 25 points ahead, or 95% used or more, turns it red. A window with no known length (the spend limit) has no clock, so it is flagged only when nearly full.
  • Session cost appears in the header line.

Use

/usage-bar toggles it. It starts on in every session.

How it works

  • Reads $.session.usage(): the rate-limit windows from the last API response, and the session cost.
  • Refreshes after each prompt and finished turn, and once a minute so the countdowns keep moving.
  • Draws in the AbovePrompt band, on top of whatever other band mods draw there. It steps aside while a survey is showing.

Limits

  • It shows only the windows the engine reports. There are no per-model rows (for example Sonnet-only), so it will not match every line of /usage.
  • Off a subscription plan there are no limits to draw, and it says "No plan limits reported for this account."
  • The 5-hour and 7-day window lengths are assumed. If a window is not exactly that long, % of time is approximate.
