Burnstate is an AI usage tracker for Mac that lives in your menu bar. It shows how much of each coding limit you've used and how much of its window has passed, so you know if you'll make it to the reset. It follows your agent sessions live and lets you answer their permission prompts from a small card. When it's time to step away, it reminds you to take a break. No account, no analytics, and your usage stays on your Mac.

Burnstate features
Your AI limits, in the menu bar
Meet Ember, a tiny flame that watches your coding tools. Its face tells you if an agent is working, an agent needs you, or a limit is running hot. You can also show the percent for any one limit right next to it.
Limits paced against the clock
Every limit gets a bar with a clock tick that shows how far through its window you are. Burning too fast? A forecast tells you when you'll run out, like "runs out 15:04, 38m before reset". Providers are sorted, so the one that needs you is on top.
All your tools in one place
Track Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Vercel AI Gateway, and Setapp AI. If a tool is already signed in on your Mac, Burnstate uses that login. If not, sign in with a one-time code or paste an API key. It never touches a tool's own login, so it can't sign you out of anything.
Live Claude Code sessions
The Sessions tab lists every Claude Code session on your Mac, from any terminal or editor. Open one to see its tokens, cost, models, and last prompt. You can also copy a resume command or archive old sessions.
Permission prompts on a card
When Claude Code wants to run a command or asks you something, a card pops up in the corner of your screen. Allow, deny, or answer right there. No more hunting for the right terminal window.
Cooldown for healthier long sessions
Get reminders to take a break, eat, and call it a day, on a schedule you set. A break counts only the time you're actually away. When you're back, you'll see what your agents did while you were gone.
