real-time context window meter for claude code

Readme
chonker
Claude Code says 200K tokens but the real usable limit is somewhere around 70-120K. There's no built-in way to see how full your context is. You just keep working until Claude starts forgetting things.
What it shows
- context window usage bar with percentage and token ratio
- input and output tokens with model name
- real time rate limit utilization (5 hour session, 7 day weekly, model specific, extra usage)
What it looks like

Install
npm (recommended)
npm install -g @adikuma/chonker
chonkerRestart Claude Code to see the meter.
dev
claude --plugin-dir /path/to/chonkerHow it works
On first session start, it auto-configures ~/.claude/settings.json to run a meter script. Claude Code pipes token usage and model info as JSON to the script every 5 seconds and it outputs a formatted status line. Rate limit data is fetched from the Anthropic API and cached locally so it stays fast.
