I Got Tired of Checking Codex and Claude Code Usage Separately, So I Built CodeRim

An anonymous developer built CodeRim, an open-source MIT-licensed desktop application that consolidates usage-limit and token data from AI coding tools like Codex and Claude Code into a single edge-notch interface. The tool reconciles differing usage-limit, local token-record and account data sources across providers to avoid switching between dashboards. The project is available on GitHub and is still under active development.

I've been using AI coding tools like Codex and Claude Code quite a lot. They're incredibly useful, but there's one small thing that kept interrupting my workflow. Checking usage limits. Every time I wanted to know how much usage I had left or when my limits would reset, I had to check different places. It's not a huge problem, but when you're coding every day, those little interruptions add up. So I decided to build something for myself. CodeRim is an open-source desktop application that helps developers monitor their AI coding usage without constantly switching between dashboards. The idea is simple: Know your limits. Keep coding. Instead of opening multiple tools just to check your usage, CodeRim keeps that information accessible from a small desktop interface. CodeRim also includes an edge-notch interface, designed to keep usage information accessible without taking over your screen. I didn't want another complicated dashboard. I wanted something that could sit quietly on my desktop and show me the information I needed when I needed it. That's what CodeRim is trying to achieve. One of the challenges has been dealing with the differences between AI providers. Usage limits, local token records, and account information don't always come from the same source. CodeRim brings the available information together while keeping those differences in mind. CodeRim is available on GitHub under the MIT license. You can explore the source code, report issues, suggest features, or contribute. GitHub: https://github.com/dlfkdLR/CodeRim https://github.com/dlfkdLR/CodeRim The project is still actively evolving, and there's plenty of room for improvement. I'm especially interested in hearing from developers who use multiple AI coding tools. If you have a few minutes to check it out, I'd really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks for reading
