Menu bar
Your AI usage limits, always visible. Left-click the icon for the popover, right-click it for the menu, and choose what it shows in Studio -> Menu bar.
Segments
The bar is a row of segments you add, reorder, hide or delete, each with its own style. With no segment, it shows the app icon.
| Segments | Styles | |
|---|---|---|
| Usage | Claude: Session (5h), Weekly, Sonnet, Fable, Extra Credits. Codex: Session (5h), Weekly | Label + value (5h 62%), Value only, Mono, Pill |
| Pacing | Claude: Session, Weekly, Fable. Codex: Session, Weekly | Dot, Dot + delta (+3%), Delta, Pill, with five dot shapes |
| Countdown | Session reset countdown (Claude only) | Text or Pill, as Relative (1h39), Absolute (20:30) or Both |
| Status | Service status (Claude) | Glyph or Pill |
A metric your plan lacks is greyed out in the add menu, with the reason. Codex segments are labelled by window length (5h, 7d). During a Claude outage, a badge can also appear (Settings -> General -> Service Status).
Templates
Start from one of eight built-ins. Both sessions and Both, pills show Claude and Codex side by side. Once you tweak a layout, a Modified card appears; Save as template keeps it.
Colors
In Studio -> Menu bar -> Colors:
- Custom (default): values and the reset countdown follow Smart Color. With Smart Color off, fixed warning and critical thresholds apply and you pick the countdown color.
- Monochrome: everything in the system text color.
- The Period label (5h / 7d) color works in both.
Claude, Codex or both
The bar follows the All / Claude / Codex mode of the window bar and keeps a layout per mode. See Claude and Codex.
