Claude Token Usage Gauge
Extension Actions
Tracks cumulative token usage in the Claude Web UI to prevent hitting limits.
■ Description
Claude Token Usage Gauge provides real-time monitoring of your Claude.ai usage limits and helps you manage long-running chat sessions efficiently.
■ Key Features
- Real-Time Limit Tracker: Syncs with Claude's internal API to display Weekly and Plan usage percentages.
- Heuristic Context Gauge: Estimates current chat token count using a smart heuristic algorithm based on web view text. This provides a "Safe/Warning/Danger" indicator based on the community-standard 50k token rule-of-thumb, reducing unnecessary API calls.
- Flexible UI (Drag & Drop): Easily reposition the gauge anywhere within your window to optimize your workspace.
- Smart Auto-Recalculation: Automatically updates data when you switch tabs or navigate to different chats.
- Project-Based Session Manager: Organize chats into up to 4 custom groups (5 chats per group) in a stack-style view. Managed in a stack-style to help you track long-term project chains.
- 1-Click Context Migration: Use the "Copy Summary Prompt" to condense your work into a lightweight Markdown format, allowing you to migrate core logic to a new session when the gauge hits Warning or Danger levels.
■ How to Use
1. Install the extension and refresh any Claude.ai chat page.
2. Drag the widget to your preferred location.
3. Monitor the "Current Session" gauge (Safe < 20k, Warn < 40k, Danger 50k+).
4. If the gauge reaches Warning or Danger, use "Copy Summary Prompt" to condense your progress, save the session to a group, and start a fresh chat to save tokens.
