About
PaceBar's origins, attribution, and license.
PaceBar is an independent, open-source menu-bar app for tracking AI coding subscription usage. It's maintained by @cbnsndwch and is community-driven — issues, pull requests, and new provider plugins are all welcome.
Origins & attribution
PaceBar is a fork of OpenUsage by
Robin Ebers. It is not endorsed by or affiliated with the upstream project.
The original copyright and attribution are retained in the project's
NOTICE.md.
The fork added a plugin-based provider system, a local HTTP API, proxy support, multi-profile tracking, tray progress bars, and an opt-in leaderboard, among other changes — see Fork branding for the rebrand details.
Inspired by CodexBar by @steipete — same idea, a very different approach.
