**A tiny desk display that always shows your Claude usage** — the 5‑hour session %, 7‑day week %, **and your model‑scoped weekly limit (e.g. Fable)** from Claude Code's `/usage`, with reset times, plus a weather turntable and a clock. Optional **email / Discord / Slack alerts** when a usage window resets.

Got **more than one Claude account**? The display cycles through all of them, each with its own card and label — see [Multiple accounts](#multiple-accounts).

It runs on a **$15 WiFi clock** ([GeekMagic SmallTV‑Ultra on AliExpress](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007937948865.html)) that you reflash **over WiFi — no soldering, fully reversible.**

What you need

  • A GeekMagic SmallTV‑Ultra (the ESP8266 model — ~$15 on AliExpress).
  • An always‑on Linux box on your LAN (a NAS VM, a Pi, an old laptop). The device can't hold your Claude credentials, so this box reads you
