AgentPace is a macOS menu bar tool for heavy users of AI coding assistants. Its core purpose is to help developers keep track of their usage pace for Claude Code and Codex, avoiding unexpectedly running out of quota before the quota window resets.
In terms of main capabilities, AgentPace turns usage percentages that are otherwise hard to interpret into an intuitive "pace" judgment: whether current consumption is faster than planned, slower than planned, or right on track. It tracks the weekly and 5-hour usage windows side by side, shows reset times, and provides a clear summary for each provider. The chart overlays actual remaining usage with a linear ideal pace line, making usage drift visible at a glance. The app also provides plain-language pace summaries, turning a provider's quota window into guidance that can be used during coding. Users can switch between viewing Codex and Claude Code in the same popup panel, without opening a separate reporting app.
In terms of how it is used, AgentPace runs as a menu bar app, supports manual refresh, refresh on open, and optional polling, and keeps local history, so usage tracking does not become an extra workflow burden. The app runs locally by default, with no account, cloud sync, telemetry, or analytics, and usage history and refresh errors stay on the user's Mac.
The main use case is developers who heavily use Claude Code and Codex and want to quickly judge whether they might run out early before the quota resets, so they can make quota decisions. AgentPace focuses on the minimal interface needed to answer this key question, rather than becoming another analytics product.
In terms of limitations and distribution, AgentPace is distributed directly by Fe Studio and requires downloading the latest macOS disk image from the GitHub release. It offers a 7-day free trial, after which it can be unlocked with a $4.99 lifetime license key, with no subscription. The app is not on the Mac App Store because it needs to run as a focused local developer tool outside the regular App Store process. Regarding whether more coding agents will be supported in the future, the official statement is that support for usage windows for more coding agents will be designed over time, especially when users request it.
