The notifications

An interruption has to earn itself. Four of these are worth being interrupted for because quota came back and you would otherwise find out by trying; three are worth it because something changed that you cannot see from the screen you are on.

The Surprise! toast — the weekly limit reset ahead of its scheduled deadline
Each kind has its own colour and headline, so what happened is legible before the words are.

The four resets

  • Surprise! — your weekly limit reset ahead of its scheduled deadline, a known Claude Code quirk worth catching.
  • Bonus! — a partial mid-window credit dropped your weekly usage. Found money.
  • New week! — the calm, routine weekly reset.
  • Fresh session! — the 5-hour window rolled over, fresh for the next five hours.
  • All four carry a confetti burst and the quota bar visibly refilling, all four are on by default, and each is toggled independently in Settings.

The three without confetti

  • Heavy startup context — a project's instruction files, memory and skills have grown enough that every session pays for them before you type a word, with what it costs to load on a cold cache. At most once per project per week, and off by default: nobody asked to be told their own files are growing.
  • Extra usage has started — it exists because the four above do. The app interrupted you to say quota came back and said nothing when you started paying. Fires once when a check first finds you past your included quota; not on a timer, not again while the same spell lasts. A receipt, not a prompt: it names no account and suggests nothing.
  • Profile set for Windows — writing the machine-wide profile is the least visible thing this app does, so it confirms itself: only when you switch by hand, once per switch, and only after the variable is read back to check the write took. Deliberately no quota bar — a bar animating one account's remaining quota into another's would suggest switching accounts because one ran out, and this app does not say that.
