in plain english

Clawdmeter Plus is a small round screen you keep on your desk that shows your live Claude Code usage in real time, along with the current time, London weather, the health of any background AI agents you have running, and an animated pixel mascot. Twice a day it also greets you out loud. It runs on a specific piece of hardware, the Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-AMOLED-2.16, and talks to a small companion program running on a Mac over Bluetooth Low Energy. It is a personal fork of an existing open source project called Clawdmeter, built as an independent hobby project with no official connection to Anthropic. The display has two pages you flip between with the middle power button. The first is the usage screen, which pulls your live Claude Code limits straight from the Anthropic usage API and shows your rolling five hour session limit and weekly limit as rings or bars, along with your current burn rate. The second page, added in this fork, is a status dashboard showing a clock, current and next day weather for London pulled from a free weather service with no API key needed, and a row of health dots representing background Claude agents running in a local tmux session, with the currently active agent highlighted by a pulsing glow. The hardware itself is a 480 by 480 round touchscreen board with a built in speaker and USB-C port, optionally paired with a small rechargeable battery for cordless use. Setting it up involves flashing custom firmware written in C++ using the PlatformIO toolchain, then installing and running a small Python daemon on your Mac that reads your Claude Code login credentials directly from the macOS Keychain, the same ones Claude Code itself already uses, so no token needs to be stored in the project. Once paired over Bluetooth, the daemon sends an update to the device roughly every 60 seconds. Configuration is handled through a plain text file that can be edited without restarting anything, controlling things like the clock format and whether a chime plays when your session limit resets.
