Show HN: Ration – see your Claude usage across terminals and brag usage

Ration, a native macOS menu-bar app, tracks Claude Code usage across terminals, showing a usage ring, project and branch breakdowns, a 7-day trend, and a shareable recap card with an API-equivalent cost estimate. The app is 100% local, reading Claude Code's session logs from disk with no accounts or network calls, and is available via Homebrew or a direct .dmg download for macOS 13+.

A tiny native macOS menu-bar app that shows how hard you're leaning on Claude Code — without leaving your desktop or running a terminal command. brew install solodynamo/ration/ration Or download the .dmg https://github.com/solodynamo/Ration/releases/latest/download/Ration.dmg directly — drag Ration into Applications, then right-click → Open the first time it's ad-hoc signed, not notarized, so Gatekeeper needs that one-time override; Homebrew does this for you automatically . - A ring in the menu bar tracks usage against a budget, auto-calibrated from your own history — or turn budgeting off entirely - Breaks usage down by project, and by branch if you work across worktrees - A 7-day trend, plus a shareable recap card streak, busiest day, an API-equivalent $ estimate 100% local. Reads Claude Code's own session logs off disk. No accounts, no network calls, nothing leaves your machine. swift build && swift test Requires macOS 13+ and Xcode 16 / Swift 6. php ./Scripts/build app.sh - dist/Ration.app ./Scripts/make dmg.sh - dist/Ration.dmg Adding a provider beyond Claude Code means writing one type conforming to UsageProvider see Sources/Ration/Providers/ — aggregation, the ring, and the rest of the UI are already provider-agnostic.
