Pulse

**A live, local, zero-dependency usage dashboard for [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code), [OpenAI Codex](https://github.com/openai/codex) and other coding agents.**

See what you're spending, which models you're spending it on, how close you are to your 5-hour and weekly limits, when you work, and which sessions ran at which reasoning effort. Pulse reads the logs already on your machine: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Continue, Cline, Roo Code, or your own tool's JSONL. It ships as one small executable, needs no configuration, and your usage data never leaves your computer.

Pulse dashboard

**New in v1.34:** Discord images that follow what Claude is doing (working, thinking, or waiting on you), set right from the Server panel. v1.31 through v1.33 fixed under-counted subagent and advisor spend, fixed account meters that showed 0.9% as 90%, added Opus 5.5, GPT-6 Sol / Luna and Codex Fast-mode pricing, and put your model, effort and live session count on Discord. Full history in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md).
