Summary

AI summary

Updates Highlights, https://github.com/jpajak/ai-gauge/blob/v0.5.1/CHANGELOG.md, and Windows across a mixed release.

Full changelog

Highlights

  • macOS and Linux support (Windows behavior unchanged). macOS uses a native menu-bar UI: one tinted dot and percent per provider, panel opens as a popover. Linux uses the floating widget, with a tray-less fallback for stock GNOME.
  • Pace indicator on every tile. A small tick shows where you are in the current session, weekly, or monthly window, so you can see at a glance whether you're using your quota faster than time is passing.
  • More reliable Claude refreshes. Auto-retries after wake-from-sleep timeouts and after the usage panel hasn't finished rendering, so the first refresh after resume usually succeeds instead of showing an error.
  • Copilot monthly reset fixed. Countdowns near month end now match GitHub's UTC reset boundary instead of local midnight.

See CHANGELOG.md for full notes.
