ctrlhq

For developers who code with AI

Your Claude Code limits, in the notch. So you never hit one blind.

See the 5-hour window, the weekly cap and when each resets, for Claude Code and Codex. Then let the same app keep your Mac awake for long runs and clear node_modules off your disk.

Claude Code and Codex usage limits in the ctrlhq notch

Sound familiar?

  • The limit lands mid-task

    You're deep in a refactor and the agent stops. You had no idea you were at 95% of the 5-hour window, or that the weekly cap was that close.

  • A long run dies when the Mac sleeps

    You start a build or an agent run, close the lid to walk to a meeting, and come back to a Mac that slept through it.

  • The disk fills with things you can rebuild

    node_modules in forty projects, DerivedData, Gradle caches, old simulators. You only notice when Xcode says there's no space left.

Know before the agent stops

Both CLIs, every window and the reset time, one hover away. Switch accounts and each one keeps its own line.

Questions

How does ctrlhq read my Claude Code and Codex limits?

If the Claude Code or Codex CLI is installed, ctrlhq reads the sign-in it already keeps on your Mac (Claude Code's needs your OK in Keychain first) and asks Anthropic or OpenAI directly. Nothing goes through our servers, and ctrlhq never changes those sign-ins.

Does it work with more than one account?

Yes. Switch accounts in the CLI and the last one's usage and reset times stay on screen, one line per account.

Is disk cleanup safe to run on my projects?

It only counts a build or target folder when the project file is right beside it, lists everything before anything moves, and sends what you pick to the Trash, so you can drag it back out.

Is closed-lid mode safe for the Mac?

It's in beta. It stops by itself on low battery (10% by default) and if the Mac gets critically hot, and if ctrlhq quits or crashes, sleep goes back to normal within two minutes.

Does dictation send my voice anywhere?

No. Speech is transcribed by Apple's on-device engine and tidied on your Mac. Dictation, voice commands and meeting notes need macOS 26 Tahoe; everything else runs on macOS 15 Sequoia or later.

Is it a subscription?

You pay $24.99 once. There's no subscription, and every future update is included.
