By
Raphael Duhs
Yesterday's bagel. Skim it, don't savour it.
Summary
A developer has created a free macOS menu bar app called Claude Double Checker that helps users track Claude Code's 2× usage window. The app displays real-time information about when the enhanced usage window is active, its duration, and when it switches back, allowing users to optimize their workflow with the AI coding assistant.
Key quotes
· 4 pulledIf you use Claude Code a lot, you know about the 2× usage window — but keeping track of when it's active, how long it lasts, and when it switches back is a pain.
I built a small macOS menu bar app that shows you exactly that, right in your menu bar.
Know when to push hard and when to hold back.
