July 26, 2026

Charts now make better use of the available panel width while remaining safely contained.

  • Improved chart layout Reduces unnecessary side spacing, prevents charts from extending outside the panel, and keeps right-side Y-axis labels visible.

1.0.6

July 25, 2026

Cursor usage tiles now reflect included, bonus, and extra model credits more accurately.

  • Clearer Cursor remaining balance Shows how much of your included plan budget is left, instead of an easy-to-misread used/limit pair.
  • Extra and bonus credits visible On-demand and bonus model usage appear on the tile even when Cursor doesn’t set a spend cap.
  • Auto vs model pools The meter prioritizes named/API model exhaustion so Auto remaining doesn’t make a drained plan look healthy.

1.0.5

July 22, 2026

Agent usage now picks up tools and logins already on your Mac, with no extra setup in Pulsebar.

  • Seamless Amp detection Finds the Amp CLI in its usual install location so usage tiles work right after you enable Amp.
  • GitHub Copilot via GitHub CLI Uses your existing gh login (or env tokens) automatically.
  • More reliable tool discovery Pulsebar looks in common install paths and your login shell PATH, so menu-bar detection matches Terminal.

1.0.4

July 22, 2026

See coding-agent usage at a glance, customize which providers appear, and enjoy smoother panel openings.

  • Agent usage tiles Optionally show live quota snapshots for supported coding agents in compact tiles. Usage refreshes whenever Pulsebar opens.
  • Panel settings Use the gear button to enable agent usage, choose providers, and arrange them in your preferred order.
  • Smoother panel presentation Pulsebar now fades in cleanly without reloading or flashing partially ready content.
  • Stable settings scrolling The settings sheet stays pinned while its provider list scrolls, preventing clipped rows and charts from showing through.
