claumon

See where your Claude Code limits are headed before you hit them - and manage everything Claude Code leaves on your machine.

Works with any claude /login plan: Pro, Max, or a Team/Enterprise seat. Forecasts come from a published, benchmarked statistical model, not a burn-rate guess. Single binary, zero config, one browser tab. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows.

Why claumon?

Anthropic's usage analytics dashboard is for Team and Enterprise org admins; it is not available to individual Pro or Max plans, and even for admins it is org-level analytics, not a live view of your own machine. What you get personally (/usage, the claude.ai usage page) shows where you stand right now - but no history, no per-session costs, and no idea where you're heading before the limit hits. claumon is that missing personal dashboard, running locally, whatever plan you're on.

What sets it apart:

Forecasts you can check. Projected utilization at reset with an 80% credible interval and ETA-to-threshold, from an empirical-Bayes model refit daily on your own usage history. The model is published (MODEL.pdf) and benchmarked out-of-sample with proper scoring rules - not a burn-rate extrapolation or a percentile heuristic.
Live rate-limit gauges. Session, weekly, and per-model utilization straight from the Claude OAuth usage API - measured, not estimated from logs.
Your whole ~/.claude footprint in one place. Usage trackers stop at tokens and cost; claumon also manages what Claude Code accumulates on disk - per-session cost breakdowns, historical trends in SQLite, running-process control, and a memory-file browser with health scores, a relationship graph, and recoverable deletion.

Everything updates in real time via SSE, and daily aggregates persist in SQLite so you can track usage over weeks, not just the current session. No Node, no Python, no build step, no config. Run it and open a browser tab.

How it compares

There are many good usage trackers for Claude Code: statuslines, CLI reporters like ccusage (excellent for quick cost reports), menu-bar apps, and other dashboards. Most estimate your limits from local logs. claumon is for keeping a live dashboard open: rate limits measured from the OAuth usage API rather than estimated, forecasts that are calibrated and benchmarked (spec), and your whole ~/.claude (sessions, costs, memory files) in one place.

_{Live dashboard: rate-limit gauges, token and cost breakdowns, and 14-day trends.}

_{Session forecast: projected usage at reset with an 80% confidence interval.}

Quick start

Homebrew (macOS / Linux):

brew install fabioconcina/claumon/claumon
claumon

Download a prebuilt binary from the latest release:

# macOS (Apple Silicon)
curl -Lo claumon https://github.com/fabioconcina/claumon/releases/latest/download/claumon-darwin-arm64
chmod +x claumon
# If blocked by Gatekeeper: right-click -> Open, or run: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine claumon
./claumon

# macOS (Intel)
curl -Lo claumon https://github.com/fabioconcina/claumon/releases/latest/download/claumon-darwin-amd64
chmod +x claumon
# If blocked by Gatekeeper: right-click -> Open, or run: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine claumon
./claumon

# Linux (x86_64)
curl -Lo claumon https://github.com/fabioconcina/claumon/releases/latest/download/claumon-linux-amd64
chmod +x claumon
./claumon

# Windows (x86_64)
# Download claumon-windows-amd64.exe from the releases page
# If blocked by Defender: right-click the .exe -> Properties -> Unblock
# Or run: Unblock-File claumon-windows-amd64.exe

Build from source:

go install github.com/fabioconcina/claumon@latest
claumon

Open http://127.0.0.1:3131 in your browser.

claumon listens on the IPv4 loopback interface only. Session contents, memory files, and process controls are never exposed to the local network. For access from another machine, keep claumon on loopback and use an authenticated SSH tunnel or reverse proxy rather than publishing port 3131 directly.

claumon reads credentials from ~/.claude/.credentials.json (created by claude /login), or falls back to the OS credential store (macOS Keychain, Linux secret-service via secret-tool, Windows Credential Manager) used by the VS Code extension. If credentials are missing, session tracking still works. Only the API usage gauges are unavailable.

Command-line flags

Flag	Description
`--open`	Open the dashboard in your browser on startup
`--port`	Override the dashboard port (default from config)
`--db`	Override the DB path (e.g. a copy, to run a test instance)

Run as a background service

Run claumon automatically on login so the dashboard is always available. First, move the binary to a permanent location, then register the service.

macOS:

mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
mv claumon ~/.local/bin/
# Add to PATH if not already: export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
claumon service install

Creates a LaunchAgent at ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.claumon.dashboard.plist. Logs go to ~/.claumon/claumon.log.

Linux:

mv claumon ~/.local/bin/
claumon service install

Creates a systemd user unit at ~/.config/systemd/user/claumon.service. Logs go to journald (journalctl --user -u claumon). By default, systemd user services stop when you log out. To keep claumon running after logout, enable lingering: loginctl enable-linger $USER.

Windows (PowerShell):

# Move the exe to a permanent location
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\claumon"
Move-Item claumon-windows-amd64.exe "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\claumon\claumon.exe"

# Add to PATH (current user, persists across sessions)
$p = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('Path', 'User')
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('Path', "$p;$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\claumon", 'User')

# Restart your terminal, then:
claumon service install

Adds claumon to the Windows Startup folder - it launches automatically (hidden) on login.

Manage the service:

claumon service status     # check if running
claumon service restart    # restart after config changes
claumon service uninstall  # stop and remove

No root or admin required on any platform.

VS Code extension

A companion VS Code extension puts your live usage in the editor status bar and embeds the dashboard in a panel, so you do not need a browser tab open. The status bar shows the current percentage and, when a forecast is available, the projected percentage at reset (e.g. 45%->72% session); the hover tooltip adds the session/weekly breakdown, reset times, and the forecast detail.

It is a client only and connects to a claumon server you are already running (default 127.0.0.1:3131); it does not start or bundle claumon.

Install it with one command (grabs the latest .vsix from GitHub and installs it via the code CLI):

curl -fsSL "$(curl -fsSL https://api.github.com/repos/fabioconcina/claumon/releases | grep -o 'https://github.com/[^"]*\.vsix' | head -1)" -o /tmp/claumon.vsix && code --install-extension /tmp/claumon.vsix

On Windows, or for the manual "Install from VSIX..." steps, see extension/, where source and build instructions also live.

Self-update

claumon update

Checks GitHub releases for a newer version, downloads the right binary for your platform, and replaces the current one. If a background service is installed, it restarts automatically after the update.

Verify a release

Every release includes SHA-256 checksums, per-binary SPDX software bills of materials, and GitHub build-provenance attestations. After downloading a binary, verify its provenance with the GitHub CLI:

gh attestation verify ./claumon-darwin-arm64 --repo fabioconcina/claumon

The built-in claumon update command verifies the downloaded binary against the release checksum before replacing the current executable.

Uninstall

Remove the background service (if installed), delete the binary, and optionally remove local data (SQLite database, logs, config, pricing cache).

macOS / Linux:

claumon service uninstall
rm ~/.local/bin/claumon
rm -rf ~/.claumon

Windows (PowerShell):

claumon service uninstall
Remove-Item (Get-Command claumon).Source
Remove-Item -Recurse "$env:USERPROFILE\.claumon"

What it tracks

Rate limits (live from the Claude API)

Session (5-hour) and weekly (7-day) utilization with reset countdowns
Per-model weekly quotas (Fable, Opus, Sonnet, ... - one gauge per model the API reports) and extra-usage credits, when applicable
Gauges color-coded: green (<50%), yellow (50–79%), red (≥80%)

Forecasts

Projected utilization at reset with an 80% credible interval and ETA-to-threshold for each window, so you see where you'll land before you get there
An empirical-Bayes model refit daily on your own past windows, over a monotone usage process; full spec in MODEL.pdf and benchmarked out-of-sample via claumon bench (CRPS/pinball, coverage, bias)

Tokens & cost

Per-session input / output / cache token breakdowns with estimated API-equivalent cost
Daily aggregates with 14-day trend charts and a 24-hour activity heatmap

Sessions & processes

Active-sessions table (project, model, tokens, cost, messages, last activity) with a today/recent toggle and a full per-message detail view, auto-discovered from ~/.claude/projects/
Running-process detection with a stop button (SIGINT, conversation preserved on disk)

Memory tools

Browser for all memory files (CLAUDE.md, rules, per-project memories) with search, category filters, and staleness indicators
Health scores (A–F per file with improvement tips) and staleness alerts (broken MEMORY.md links, orphans, index mismatches)
Recoverable memory deletion: files move into ~/.claude/.claumon-trash, can be restored immediately with Undo, and are removed permanently after 30 days
Trash explorer: a Trash view in the Memory tab lists recoverable deletions with content preview, original location, time until permanent removal, and one-click restore
An interactive relationship graph with project filters and click-to-navigate; click any file to open it in your editor via vscode://

Keyboard shortcuts

Key	Action
`1` `2` `3`	Switch to Dashboard, Memories, Graph tab
`/`	Jump to memory search
`Esc`	Close session detail panel

Live updates

The dashboard uses Server-Sent Events (SSE) - no polling, no manual refresh. Changes appear instantly:

Usage gauges update every 2 minutes (configurable) from the Claude API
Session table updates when any .jsonl session file changes on disk
Memory browser highlights changed files with a visual pulse
Graph and staleness re-render when memory files change on disk

A status dot in the top bar shows connection state (green = connected, red = disconnected).

Configuration

Optional. Create ~/.claumon/config.json:

{
  "port": 3131,
  "poll_interval_seconds": 120,
  "credentials_path": "~/.claude/.credentials.json",
  "claude_dir": "~/.claude",
  "db_path": "~/.claumon/usage.db",
  "retention_days": 90,
  "stuck_threshold_minutes": 10
}

All fields are optional. Defaults are shown above; claumon works without a config file. retention_days controls how long usage snapshots and daily aggregates are kept before being pruned. A pricing_overrides map can also be set to override per-model pricing, keyed by model ID with input, output, cache_read, cache_write_5m, and cache_write_1h USD-per-million-token rates.

Data storage

claumon stores usage snapshots and daily aggregates in a SQLite database at ~/.claumon/usage.db. Historical data is backfilled automatically on first startup by scanning all existing session files.

The database uses WAL mode for concurrent reads during writes. No maintenance required: data older than 90 days (configurable via retention_days) is pruned automatically.

How it works

claumon combines three data sources:

Claude API (/api/oauth/usage) - polled periodically for rate limit utilization. Requires OAuth credentials from claude /login.
Session files (~/.claude/projects/*/*.jsonl) - watched via fsnotify for real-time token counting. Each JSONL file is parsed for message-level token usage.
Memory files (~/.claude/projects/*/memory/*.md, CLAUDE.md, rules) - discovered and parsed for frontmatter, rendered as HTML, analyzed for cross-references and staleness.

Everything is embedded in a single binary via //go:embed - no external files, no Node.js, no build step for the frontend.
