A free, open-source macOS utility that monitors Claude Code and Codex usage quotas from the Mac notch.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-21 issue.

Why it surfaced

NotchAgent reads local session files, calculates remaining quota, and presents four focused views: current capacity, projected burn time, hourly rhythm, and model health. Its local-first design, notarized DMG, optional one-token API probe, and explicit “no telemetry” stance give this tiny utility unusually clear product thinking.
