Motivation
I would like to see subscription quota and local usage together in the macOS menu bar without opening the popover. For example, weekly quota remaining and time until reset on the first row, with today's all-agent cost and total tokens on the second.
Proposal
Add an optional native layout editor with:
- Multiple items per row, optional aligned columns, a live preview, and a few presets.
- Configurable content: icons, cost, token totals/breakdowns, calls, sessions, cache hit, and supported subscription quota/reset metrics.
- Independent Provider, Period, and Local/Combined scope for usage items, reusing the existing data interfaces and restrictions.
- Optional labels, decimal precision for cost/token items, row/item reordering, text size, and column spacing.
The local prototype supports up to three rows and six items per row. Two rows are the practical default because of the menu bar's height. Subscription choices use already-connected providers with the requested quota window; Combined usage retains the existing All-providers restriction.
Contribution
I have a working local Swift/SwiftUI prototype and would be happy to prepare a focused PR if this direction is welcome. I would keep the existing display available and leave the popover unchanged. Is there a smaller initial scope or an alternative settings approach you would prefer?
The prototype has passed debug/release builds and 88 targeted tests. I have not yet completed the required full branch-versus-main test comparison; I will complete that before opening a PR. This issue is to discuss the approach first, per the contributing guide.
