THE SIGNAL

One line between flow and forced pause.

01

One local timeline

Claude Code and Codex activity is normalized into one daily history.

02

Observed history

Daily Claude and Codex tokens are counted from local usage metadata after approval.

03

Honest confidence

Observed, partial, unavailable, and permission states stay attached to the number they qualify.

THE READOUT

LOCAL BY DEFAULT

Your prompts are not the product.

Burnline reads usage metadata only after you approve Home folder access. It does not persist credentials, prompts, responses, or transcript content.

  • Permission-gated local scan
  • No account required
  • No analytics backend
MAC APP STORE EDITION

Try the whole app. Keep it once.

7-day trialFree

Full access starts locally on this Mac. No trial purchase, account, or payment method is required.

Permanent access restored through your App Store purchase history. No subscription and no Burnline account.

The $2.99 purchase starts with the Mac App Store release. The current Developer ID signed preview remains available until that version is live.

DETAILS, NOT DISCLAIMERS

Know what each number means.

Why does Claude show tokens instead of a percentage?

Anthropic does not expose a supported third-party subscription quota API for this use case. Burnline therefore reports observed local tokens and never presents them as an exact account limit.

What does Burnline read?

After permission is granted, Burnline scans usage metadata under the local Claude and Codex data folders. It does not persist prompts, responses, transcript content, or provider credentials.

What do Observed, Partial, and Permission mean?

Observed is counted from local metadata on this Mac. Partial means the bounded scan could not cover all available history. Permission means Burnline needs you to choose the Home folder before it can read either provider.

How is Remaining calculated?

Remaining is your optional 30-day token budget minus observed local usage. It is a personal planning signal, not a claim about a provider subscription quota.

How is the download verified?

Burnline 0.1.1 is Developer ID signed, Apple notarized, and shipped with its notarization ticket stapled. macOS can verify the app before its first launch.
