Products that do what Claumon – forecasting Claude Code usage limits with a Gamma process does
Anthropic's usage analytics dashboard is only available to Team and Enterprise org admins. On a Pro or Max plan all you get is /usage and the claude.ai usage page, which show where you stand right now but not where you're heading. I looked at various open-source projects but none quite matched what I had in mind: an all-round control panel for Claude Code that's also a single binary, with no dependencies and no install steps. The other thing I cared about was forecasting the usage limits. Existing tools do burn-rate projections (ccusage) or percentile heuristics…

I hit my Claude Code usage limit yesterday in the middle of regular work. Not doing anything unusual - just a couple of coding sessions. It felt like it came out of nowhere. Then today Anthropic announced they're tightening 5-hour limits during peak hours. It feels like a rug pull is coming and we're all just supposed to accept "you've used too much" with no explanation of what "too much" means. Usage limits have always been opaque. A vague percentage bar. No dollar figure. No formula. No way to plan your work around it. So I built a proxy that captures the rate-limit headers Anthropic sends…

Anthropic announced today that starting June 15, paid Claude plans get a separate monthly credit pool for programmatic usage (claude -p, Agent SDK). Seems OK at first glance but it turns out the monthly credit pool is charged at API rates, which effectively kills any serious programmatic usage for hobbyists. This is a small Claude Code wrapper which runs claude in a PTY, injecting input, finding the session transcript jsonl file, and using a stop hook to determine when claude is done. It's a drop-in replacement for claude code. All arguments except the "-p" argument are forwarded as-is.…

Hey HN! I built a native macOS menu bar app that shows your Claude Code usage limits at a glance — no more getting rate-limited mid-flow. It reads your OAuth token from macOS Keychain, polls the Anthropic usage API, and displays your 5-hour and 7-day utilization as a clean progress bar right in your menu bar. Zero token consumption. Built with Swift + SwiftUI. MIT licensed. https://github.com/puq-ai/claude-meter

Anthropic recently released a new model called Claude. As I was unable to access this model, I noticed a lot of discussions on Twitter regarding comparisons and use cases of Claude and ChatGPT. To keep track of these conversations, I created a repository that compiles information on the following topics: * Comparisons between Claude and ChatGPT * Use cases * Limitations of Claude Check it out and please create a bug/PR if more threads can be added: https://github.com/taranjeet/awesome-claude

I built a collection of professional slash commands for Anthropic's Claude Code that provide structured workflows for common software development tasks. These commands are directly inspired by and adapted from Anthropic's own claude-code-best-practices (https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/claude-code-best-practices) documentation, translating their recommendations into executable workflows. The suite includes commands for: • Comprehensive code reviews with security and performance analysis • End-to-end feature development with planning, implementation, and testing •…

Hey HN, I built ShadowGit a while back to automatically commit code every minute to a hidden git repo (.shadowgit.git). Original goal was to easily rollback when AI tools break things. But I discovered something interesting: this minute-by-minute history is perfect context for AI assistants. So I built an MCP server that lets Claude/Cursor query this history using native git commands. The results surprised me: Before: Claude would read my entire codebase repeatedly, burning 15,000+ tokens to debug issues. After: Claude runs `git log --grep="drag"` finds when drag-and-drop worked,…

Hey HN, as a former data analyst, I’ve been tooling around trying to get agents to do my old job. The result is this system that gets you maybe 80% of the way there. I think this is a good data point for what the current frontier models are capable of and where they are still lacking (in this case — hypothesis generation and general data intuition). Some initial learnings: - Generating web app-based reports goes much better if there are explicit templates/pre-defined components for the model to use. - Claude can “heal” broken charts if you give it access to chart images and run a…

I built Hydra because I kept losing my flow when Claude Code hit usage limits mid-task. I would copy context, open another tool, and then re-explain everything. This would be super annoying for me. Hydra wraps your AI coding CLIs (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Pi, or any terminal-based tool) in a single command. It monitors terminal output for rate limit patterns, and when one provider runs out, you switch to another with one keypress. Your conversation history, git diff, and recent commits are automatically copied to your clipboard so you can paste and keep going. The fallback chain is…
