    Made a new version and took some inspiration from Mischa his screenshots, also cleaned up the UI a little.

    New features:

    • The percentage shown in the menu bar now reflects how many percentage of usage remains
    • You can see a projection of your credit usage for this cycle
    • You can now exactly see when the last sync was performed
    • Fixed the calculations for the days left in this cycle

    As I am getting close to using up my AI credits 😅. I thought it may be best to keep track of my usage going forward. So I let AI build a little menu bar app, that allows me to quickly glare at the percentage used.

    You can use it as well by installing it with the attached CopilotUsage-1.0.dmg.

    Under the hood it uses the gh cli tool to authenticate with your Github account. So you need to install that via Homebrew first brew install gh and then sign in using gh auth login.
