Peras

Peras provides essential usage monitoring for your large language model tools, ensuring you stay within your limits. Key capabilities include: • Real-time usage tracking for Claude Code and Codex • Customizable weekly usage thresholds • Automatic pausing of operations at set limits • Detailed usage breakdown by project • Optional macOS menu bar application for quick glances This tool is designed to prevent unexpected overages and provide clear visibility into your consumption. Users can set a specific percentage line for weekly usage, and Peras will intervene when that threshold is crossed. This prevents a single intensive task from consuming your entire week's allowance, giving you greater control over your operational budget and resource allocation. You can easily resume operations from the terminal or the macOS menu bar at any time. Peras integrates seamlessly with your existing command-line interface, offering a free and open-source guard for your model usage. For users who prefer a visual interface, the optional native macOS menu bar app provides at-a-glance usage statistics and quick controls. It displays 5-hour and weekly usage bars, reset times, and pause functionality for each tool. Ideal for individual developers, researchers, and small teams who depend on large language models for coding or content generation and need to manage their usage responsibly. It empowers users to optimize their resource expenditure and maintain productivity without fear of hitting unexpected limits.
