- Mac developers running Codex or Claude Code
- Worth noticing
- Claude’s history is rebuilt from local transcripts, while Codex publishes its own history.
Field notes
The app distinguishes stale, substituted, and inferred quota readings instead of presenting every number as current. Its documentation describes separate data paths: Codex supplies its own history, while Claude history is reconstructed from transcripts stored on the Mac. A larger window covers 7-, 30-, and 90-day views, and the process inspector lists agent background trees before cleanup.
