Surface the 5-hour rate-limit window inside Claude Desktop
The desktop app's /usage shows lifetime analytics (sessions, tokens, streaks, peak hour, favorite model) but not the one piece of info that actually matters mid-session: how close I am to hitting the 5-hour rate limit.
Right now the only way to see current window consumption + reset time is to open a browser and go to claude.ai/settings/usage. That's a context switch every time I want to check whether I'm about to get cut off in the middle of work.
Request: surface the current 5-hour window somewhere inside Claude Desktop. Options:
- Add it to the existing
/usageoverview (the analytics view is fine but the rate limit should be the first thing shown) - A persistent status indicator in the bottom bar (% used + reset time)
- A new slash command like
/limitor/window
Right now the analytics view feels like it's optimizing for "interesting stats" when the actual operator need is "am I about to get throttled."
Tested on Claude Desktop 1.3109.0, macOS.
