AI Limits tracks AI subscription windows and shows remaining usage for multiple providers on a single desktop panel. It reads authentication from existing command-line sessions without requiring users to enter passwords or API keys manually. The display updates continuously and marks estimates clearly when a reset has occurred.
The app runs as a lightweight native widget that stays visible on the desktop or collapses into the system tray. It monitors Claude, Codex, Copilot, and Antigravity quotas, showing both session and weekly allowances. Failed data sources appear grey with their age shown, so users never mistake a connection error for an exhausted limit.
AI Limits includes installer packages for PowerShell, Chocolatey, and Scoop, plus a portable zip for manual deployment. It uses less than one tenth of one percent of a CPU core at idle and performs no telemetry or data collection. The interface offers adjustable width, multiple color palettes, and taskbar positioning across multiple monitors.
