A simple VS Code extension that shows your [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) session and weekly usage directly in the status bar — so you always know how much capacity you have left before hitting a limit.

Features

• Status bar indicator — shows remaining usage for the current 5-hour session and the 7-day window, color-coded by how much is left
• Rich tooltip — hover to see colored progress bars, exact remaining %, and both relative and absolute reset times
• Usage History panel — a time-series chart in the bottom panel (alongside Terminal/Output) tracking the 5-hour session, general and model-specific 7-day limits, and extra credits. Filter by semantic windows like current session, current week, and today, or by fixed ranges like 1h, 6h, 1d, 7d, and 30d; the selected view persists across reloads. History is stored locally and retained for a configurable number of days.
• History overlays — optional session-start markers, weekly reset markers, and weekly pace / forecast lines in the Usage History chart; each overlay can be toggled directly in the panel or via settings
• Adaptive weekly forecast — a regularized baseline avoids noisy early-week extrapolation, then recent personal weekly patterns are incorporated with recency weighting. The shared projection appears in the history panel, tooltip, and a separate color-coded status bar dot; right-click the status bar and toggle "Claude Usage Forecast" to show or hide it
• Customizable thresholds — configure when the indicator turns yellow or red
• Auto-refresh — polls
