CCTray is a macOS menu bar application that provides real-time monitoring of your Anthropic’s Claude API usage and costs - by reading ccusage outputs. It displays key metrics like session cost, burn rate (tokens/minute), and estimated remaining time directly in your menu bar with color-coded visual indicators.

Key features:

• Dynamic menu bar icon with color states (green/yellow/red) and progress arc is always there for you

• Real-time cost tracking and burn rate monitoring

• Smart rotating display cycling through cost → burn rate → time remaining (change interval and displayed metrics as you want)

• Rich data visualization with informative charts and trend indicators

• Some additional preferences for customization

• Native & lightweight - built with SwiftUI following modern patterns (using not more than 160 MB of RAM)

The app should be particularly useful for fellow developers working with Claude who want to keep track of their API spending without constantly checking the console.

Last but not least: the project is open source (MIT), so check the code and tell me how can we improve it. Cheers!
