TokenPlant: macOS Menu Bar App Grows Pixel Plants From Claude Code and Codex Token Use

At a glance

TokenPlant is a macOS menu bar app that grows a pixel plant based on how much you use Claude Code and Codex. It reads local session logs every 30 seconds and sends no data out, with no server or account needed.

Key points

1. 1

   Plants grow with token use, and once full-grown they move to a garden and a new seed is planted.

2. 2

   It measures progress by days rather than token counts, aiming for one plant per month no matter how much you use.

3. 3

   Only CLI usage is counted, so web and desktop app use is not reflected.

4. 4

   It requires macOS 14 or later, is written in Swift, and is released under the MIT license.

Why it matters

It turns AI tool use into a light, game-like way to reflect on your own habits.
