Description
CodexBar Lite is a free and minimal OpenAI Codex usage tracker designed for macOS. It allows users to monitor their Codex usage, rate limits, and reset times directly from the menu bar. The app utilizes the Codex CLI session already present on the user's Mac, eliminating the need for API keys, browser cookies, or Keychain access. It supports macOS 13+ and Apple Silicon, offering a native and lightweight solution. Users can set a refresh interval for usage data, typically every 5 minutes, and receive notifications about their usage status. The app is open-source and can be downloaded for free, with automatic updates available via Sparkle. CodexBar Lite is featured on Product Hunt and is ideal for developers who want to keep track of their OpenAI Codex usage without additional setup or third-party dependencies.
