CodexBar: Every AI coding limit, in your menu bar

CodexBar, a free and open-source macOS menu bar app, launched to help developers track usage limits, credit balances, and reset countdowns across AI coding tools such as OpenAI's Codex and Anthropic's Claude. The app supports macOS 14+ and includes a bundled command-line binary for terminal and CI usage, with standalone tarballs for macOS and Linux.
