Lift chip text toward white so small tier badges (max/pro) read clearly on the
dark surface. Rename the icon toggle from Color/Mono to 'Icon' (it only swaps
the menu-bar icon, not the bar theme) to remove the misunderstanding. Make the
Dashboard button actually work when the server is down: probe reachability and,
if not up, launch 'ccs config' (detached) which boots the web-server and opens
the dashboard itself; degrade gracefully when the ccs binary isn't found.
Replace the raw system green/yellow/orange/red headroom colors (garish on the
dark surface and colliding with the brand orange) with a muted, intuitive
green-amber-coral-red palette that leans coral for 'low' so a near-empty
window never reads as the accent. Drop the cool indigo card wash for a neutral
elevated surface so the warm bars no longer clash; subscription identity stays
on the section header and badge.
Replace the prose window lines with an aligned per-window bar list (5h /
weekly / Opus / Sonnet), colored by headroom, with the binding window
highlighted and a compact reset chip. Humanize durations beyond a day
(Nd Nh instead of raw hours) and only show the burn-rate pace clause when a
window is projected to exhaust before it resets, so a meaningless 'resets in
44h' / '~110h left' projection no longer appears.
Lead the dropdown with subscriptions: a dedicated card shows the binding
window as the hero (gauge, remaining %, reset countdown, and a burn-rate
'left at this pace' line), a secondary window, and the Opus/Sonnet split for
Max, with a stale marker for older Codex data. Demote spend/usage to a compact
strip and surface cross-tool headroom. Add pure burn-rate / time-to-exhaustion
and binding-window math in Core. Kill the menu scroll indicator for real
(NSScrollView hider) so content stays aligned. Spend-cap alerts default off
(pay-per-use, opt-in).
Show Claude Code and Codex subscription rows with the Tier 1 quota gauge and
reset countdown, visually distinguished from CLIProxy provider accounts, and
let them drive the existing quota alerts. Formatting + harness coverage for the
native rows.
Add real quota gauges with threshold bands and a reset countdown for
quota-capable accounts. Introduce a pure, deterministic alert rule engine
(CCSBarCore) covering quota-remaining, daily/monthly spend caps, reauth, and
cooldown, with per-rule dedupe keys that re-arm on period rollover or
clears-then-recurs so it never spams. Deliver via UNUserNotificationCenter
with an in-dropdown Alerts fallback when notifications are denied. Add a
preferences surface (per-rule toggles, caps, quota levels, glance mode)
persisted in UserDefaults, and a configurable menu-bar glance
(auto/today/month/lowest-quota/account-count) that still never shows a
lifetime dollar. Default spend caps raised to $500/day and $10000/month.
Mirror the richer analytics payload (quotaStatus, per-account last-active,
bySurface) in the Codable models. Add a per-surface usage section (Claude
Code, Codex, Droid, CLIProxy) with proportional bars beside the existing
spend grid, sparkline, and top models. Rebuild the menu-bar title chain so a
lifetime dollar can never sit in the always-on title (it read as live spend):
quota% then today spend then account count. Rebuild the accounts rows
(default badge, tri-state quota, honest no-data cost, health), pivot to an
honest idle hero when no recent data, hide the scroll indicator, and tighten
spacing.
Send the composite provider:accountId (row.id) for Set as default so the server
can resolve the CLIProxy account; feature the account closest to exhaustion
(lowest remaining quota) in the title instead of the healthiest; rename the
packaged asset to CCS-Bar.app.zip to match what 'ccs bar install' downloads.
Menu-bar app that paints cached rows instantly and fires a debounced
force-refresh on open. Dropdown shows per-account health, quota, tier, cost and
paused state with pause/resume, set default, solo and tier-lock actions, plus an
offline state when CCS is not running.
Pure-Foundation CCSBarCore: thin CCS web-server client (summary force-fresh,
pause/resume/default/solo/tier-lock), bar.json discovery with an offline state,
summary models, status-title formatting, and a force-refresh debouncer. Tested
via a runnable assert harness (ccs-bar-check) so it builds without full Xcode.
