is this really true i am confused which way it works, visually it looks like only less is left but when you look at the percentage it looks more
percentage is left can you please check
⏺ I can see the confusion! Let me clarify how these progress bars work:
The visual representation is showing how MUCH has been USED (the filled portion), while the percentage shows how MUCH REMAINS.
So for your current session:
- Visual: The bar is almost completely filled (the █ characters take up most of the space)
- Percentage: 99% left
This seems contradictory because:
- The filled bar suggests you've used most of your quota
- But 99% left means you've only used 1%
This is a display inconsistency in the tool. The percentage is the accurate number - you have 99% of your session quota remaining and have only
used about 1%.
Here's what's actually happening:
| Metric | Status |
|---------------------------|---------------------------|
| Current session | 1% used, 99% remaining ✓ |
| Current week (all models) | 26% used, 74% remaining ✓ |
| Current week (Opus) | 16% used, 84% remaining ✓ |
The visual bar fill is misleading - it should only be about 1-2% filled for your session, but it's displaying much fuller. Trust the
percentages, not the visual bar. You're in good shape with plenty of quota left across all metrics.
What Should Happen?
It should display the right representation of the usage.
