Tachometer redline shows exactly where you'll exhaust tokens at the 5-hour window end.

Strengths
  • Clever tachometer metaphor visualizing token burn rate against session window
  • 3D printable frame designed specifically for Adafruit PiTFT 3.5 Plus hardware
  • Desktop SDL window mode plus framebuffer mode for flexible deployment options
Weaknesses
  • Requires extracting and refreshing Claude session cookies manually
  • Niche audience limits broader developer appeal despite clever execution

Post Description

Just a silly project. Its redline is the token burn rate where you'll exhaust your tokens right at the end of your 5-hour window. Clearly inspired by 1980's Corvette dashboards.

Burn, baby, burn (those tokens)

Funny satire on AI hype, but literally just a script to waste money.

ccclub – See which of your friends is burning the most on Claude Code

Pulls data straight from ~/.claude/projects and only uploads aggregated metrics (tokens, cost, calls) via a 6-letter invite code flow — nice and surgical. The one-command npx init + join UX and a show-data privacy audit button make adoption trivial, but it’s strictly useful only to groups already using Claude Code and requires trust that aggregated uploads are enough for your threat model.

CCClub – Leaderboard for Claude Code usage among friends

Turns local Claude Code logs into privacy-preserving 30-minute token summaries and publishes only counters — no prompts, files, or project names ever leave your machine. The combo of a tiny CLI with SessionEnd hooks and a Cloudflare Worker dashboard (per-group pages, auto-refresh, opt-in global board) is a smart, low-friction approach to sharing usage data. If you care about tracking AI spending socially, this scratches that exact itch without the usual signup overhead.
