modeldeck
by timharris707
ModelDeck is a macOS menu bar app that shows how much of your usage limit is left across all your Claude Code and Codex CLI accounts. It displays live meters, reset times and low-capacity alerts, and can switch the active account for new terminal sessions.

What you can do with it
- See the percentage left in every rate-limit window (5-hour, weekly, model-specific) for each account at a glance
- Get a single macOS notification when an account drops below your chosen threshold
- Switch the active Claude Code or Codex account for new terminal sessions with one click
Ways a business could use it
- A freelance developer with separate client and personal AI coding accounts can avoid agent runs failing mid-task because a limit ran out.
- A small team lead can plan work around each account's reset times to get more out of existing subscriptions instead of buying extra capacity.
Can you use it commercially?
Not open source (PolyForm licence). Usually free to use for your own business, but you can't resell it or offer it as a hosted service. Read the licence.
Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.
Getting it running

Things to check
