Problem Statement

pected output (example)

Model: claude-sonnet-4-20250514
Account: user@example.com (Pro)
Session: abc123-...

5h limit: [████████░░░░░░░░] 52% left (resets 16:18)
Weekly limit: [██████████████░░] 12% left (resets Mon 13:15)
Why this matters

Developers using Claude Code in long sessions or CI pipelines need to anticipate rate limit interruptions. Without usage visibility in the terminal, they're flying blind. This is a small UX improvement with a large productivity impact.
