Live usage in your menu bar, a multi-session cockpit, and an AI that trims your token waste — a precise instrument that audits and optimizes, and never becomes the engine.

Live usage meter
Your 5-hour & weekly limits, always one glance away.
Exact when you're signed in, a clearly-degraded estimate when you're not — never a confident number that might be wrong. A predictive nudge tells you ≈2h to your cap before the wall, not after.
What's inside
Five instruments, one calm panel.
Live meter
Your 5-hour and weekly Claude limits in the menu bar — exact or estimated — with a predictive "you'll hit your cap in ~2h at this burn" nudge so a lockout never surprises you mid-task.
Multi-session CockpitNew
Run several claude projects at once — tabs, a project rail, or a mission-control overview — each showing real cost, model and RAM, under one shared binding limit and a memory-pressure gate that stops you oversaturating the Mac.
AutopilotNew
Keeps Claude Code lean system-wide — a concise output-style and a usage statusline in every terminal — so every session spends fewer tokens by default. Fully reversible, any time.
AI OptimizerNew
Proposes a leaner, safer CLAUDE.md as a GitHub-style diff with a plain "why this is better" summary. You review every line before anything changes.
Context trimmer & audit
Surgical context trimming, memory-pressure awareness and a config audit that flags what's quietly costing you — all measured, never guessed.
Fewer tokens
Optimizers that cut what you spend.
Output styles
One-click reply styles — Concise, or aggressive "Caveman" compression — applied to every claude session, terminal and Cockpit. Less prose per answer, the code and reasoning untouched.
settings.json hardening
Deterministic one-click fixes — deny blind reads of .env, node_modules and build output, set a cost-sane default model — each a reviewable diff, backed up before any change.
Image → text on dropNew
Drop a screenshot into a Cockpit session and Throttle OCRs it locally to text — a fraction of the tokens of a vision image. Hold ⌥ to keep it as an image.
Context trimmer
Strips re-charged base64 screenshots from past transcripts so --resume reloads light — reversible, the original backed up, the active session untouched.
Searchable session memoryNew
Search your past claude sessions for context the window has lost — a dedicated Search window, plus an opt-in MCP server so Claude can search its own history too. Finds the right session even when you don't recall the exact word — searching "auth" also surfaces "login" and "token", entirely on-device.
MCP manager & memory hygieneNew
Move any MCP server between Global, project-local and the shareable .mcp.json, enable, disable, add or remove one — each file backed up first. Zombie servers flagged with a real list_tools handshake; MEMORY.md indexed past Claude Code's 200-line / 25 KB auto-load cap.
Autopilot
Keeps your Claude Code setup optimized system-wide, by default — concise replies and a live usage statusline on, dead memory from deleted projects archived. Every action reversible and logged; review or undo any of it in one place.
Compress command output
A PostToolUse hook strips ANSI, dedups and trims verbose CLI output before Claude sees it — a green test run collapses to a line, errors always passed through raw. Fewer tokens per build, reversible.
Cache-bust attributionNew
Shows why your prompt cache is being re-written — model swaps vs prefix churn — so the silent 10× re-reads that quietly inflate a session stop being invisible. Computed on-device from your own transcripts.

Autopilot
Keeps the setup lean system-wide, reversible.
It audits and optimizes — it never becomes the engine.
