    The weekly cap is gone in a day

    Hitting weekly limits as a Pro user in a day and a half — making paid subscriptions effectively unusable for 5-6 days per week.

    via GitHub #9424
    Solved

    Keep long jobs recoverable when a week runs hot

    One plan's weekly cap is still a hard wall. Power Claude keeps the work recoverable on the same Claude Code profile — pause when limits hit, preserve state, and resume with official options instead of losing the day to a dead tab.

    Local usage estimates help you see burn before the wall, and same-profile auto-resume relaunches interrupted work when it is safe to continue — so a hot week does not mean retyping everything from scratch.

    Paying $200 a month, I hit my weekly in 3 days last week.

    Solved

    Get the throughput you're paying for

    Top-tier price, mid-week lockout. Power Claude turns local session logs into clear burn and cost visibility, so the work you paid for maps to real usage — not three good days and a mystery freeze.

    The token trip odometer shows what each project is burning, and local forecasts project runway from official outputs and session history — so the bill finally maps to the work.

    Five-hour windows drain fast

    The five-hour window is gone before the afternoon — then I'm stuck babysitting resumes.

    via Product FAQ
    Solved

    Recover the work without retyping the day

    Subscription windows are real. Power Claude helps with local efficiency and recovery — Token Saver before the official CLI, watchdog and same-profile resume, and scheduling so you re-run work deliberately instead of losing the thread.

    It does not pre-emptively switch consumer accounts based on remaining quota. Limits pause and notify; you choose the official path forward.

    What to do when a profile hits a limit

    I keep juggling logins when one account hits the wall mid-task.

    via Product FAQ
    Solved

    Stay in control when a limit hits

    When a profile hits a usage limit mid-task, the old instinct is to juggle logins. Power Claude marks the profile limited, pauses the job, and preserves local session state — then surfaces official options (wait, plan options, usage credits via Claude Code, or explicit API mode).

    It does not automatically switch to another consumer profile to continue the same job. Resume stays on the same profile when you are ready.

    Babysitting the 'continue' prompt

    Setting a timer and waiting to type continue is not very efficient — is it possible to provide a 'Continue after limit is reset'?

    via GitHub #18980
    Solved

    It continues itself

    The feature people keep asking Anthropic for is the one Power Claude already ships. When a limit resets or a session stalls, auto-resume relaunches it for you — no timer, no manually typing continue into five tabs.

    Auto-Nudge handles the "Want me to continue?" pauses on high-confidence next steps, and a loop guard keeps it from runaway nudging. You set the work; it keeps the work going.

    You fly blind on token spend

    Token usage visibility is the #1 most-requested feature category in Claude Code issues.

    via GitHub #33978
    Solved

    A real meter, not a surprise bill

    Anthropic hides the meter; Power Claude puts it back. The status bar shows live consumption as you work, the token trip odometer tracks resettable per-project totals for client billing, and the analytics dashboard gives you the history and burn rate Claude Code won't.

    The run-out forecaster turns that data into a prediction — when, at this pace, the usage runs hot — so you make the expensive choices on purpose instead of after the fact.

    Compaction makes it forget mid-task

    After compaction, the lead completely loses awareness of the team — it can't coordinate tasks. The team effectively vanishes mid-session.

    via GitHub #23620
    Solved

    Keep your context through the compaction

    Auto-compaction silently dilutes the rules and decisions your session was built on. Power Claude's warm-compacting and continuity tooling preserve the working state across the compaction boundary, so the agent doesn't wake up having forgotten the plan.

    The session trail keeps a durable record of what was decided and done, so even a heavy session has something concrete to resume from instead of a vague summary.

    A big session becomes unrecoverable

    Sessions that grow large become permanently inaccessible. Users lose all conversation history and must start fresh.

    via GitHub #14472
    Solved

    Recover the session instead of restarting it

    When a session grows too large to reload, hours of accumulated context can vanish. Power Claude detects sessions that ended with pending work and brings them back with a reason-aware resume rather than a cold start that forgets the architecture you'd agreed on.

    Checkpoints and the session trail give every session durable recovery points, so "too big to open" stops meaning "gone."

    Overnight runs stall on prompts

    Every time a scheduled task runs, it re-prompts for folder access and tool permissions, even though I have previously selected 'Always allow.'

    via GitHub #47180
    Solved

    Jobs that actually finish overnight

    An unattended run that waits on a permission prompt isn't unattended. Power Claude keeps long jobs moving — the watchdog resumes after stalls and rate-limit events, and Auto-Nudge clears the high-confidence "continue?" pauses that otherwise block a session until morning.

    Combined with session recovery, the job you start before bed is still progressing — or cleanly finished — when you sit back down.

    You can create multiple sessions, but can only view one at a time.

    via GitHub #30154
    Solved

    See every session at a glance

    Claude Code shows you one session at a time; juggling several means guessing which is alive. Power Claude's Session Explorer gives every session a live status badge — running, stalled, ended — with a live-running overlay so you can tell at a glance what's working and what's stuck.

    A double-launch guard stops you accidentally starting the same session twice, and tab warming keeps the ones you switch back to responsive.

Built to make the six worst Claude Code failure modes disappear.

Your 5-hour quota runs out before your agent does.

Smart Rotation hands the next prompt to a fresh account the moment Anthropic starts throttling — scheduledly, before the 429 ever fires. While account A cools down, account B is already answering, on the same conversation thread, fully transparent to Claude Code. N accounts means N independent 5-hour quota windows — five Pro accounts give you five, so the wall you used to hit at lunchtime stops existing.

Pick the policy that fits the work: Balanced to spread load evenly, Burst to drain one account fast when you're sprinting, Single to pin to one. Five Pro accounts ≈ $83/mo — roughly half the cost of Claude Max ($200/mo), same ceiling, no timer to stare at.

Anthropic itself flagged the quota wall as the top-priority complaint of 2026 — and the insult on top of it: a rate-limited turn burns the tokens it never got to use. [GH #11810 — "burn through whole damn quota in 1–2 days"]

You're paying for Opus. Claude's routing you to Haiku. Would you even know?

Per-turn Model Attribution shows you exactly which model answered every single turn — so a silent downgrade to Haiku surfaces the instant it happens, not three bad outputs later. You see the swap in real time and can act on it: re-run it, escalate, or switch accounts — instead of paying premium prices for commodity output and never knowing.

The downgrade is real and undisclosed by default. External telemetry put ~36% of Claude Code subagent traffic on Haiku — roughly 20× cheaper than Opus, returned with no native indicator at all. One developer's words: "Silently gaslighting us to believe everything's normal."

[mirin.pro — "36% of Your Claude Code Subagents Are Running on Haiku"]

Auto-compact ate your context. The agent is guessing now.

The Watchdog snapshots your full session the instant before auto-compact fires — preserved as an immutable git ref you can restore with one click. When you resume, the agent works from the real decision chain, not a summary of a summary of a summary.

Resume Session replays the un-compacted context into the next turn, so the model knows precisely what the prior turns meant — the constraints that still apply and the ones that don't. No more silent context decay mid-refactor, no more hallucinated requirements after the third compaction.

[Morph — Auto-Compact analysis]

Four hours of work. Lost. Because the session crashed.

Every session is persisted as JSONL plus an immutable git ref the moment work begins — so a crash, an OOM kill, or a reboot can't take your work with it. Your todos, tool calls, file edits, and full decision chain stay recoverable, and one click drops you back at the exact pre-crash state.

Because the snapshots are git objects, the history is tamper-evident and queryable with the tools you already use — not a fragile cache that "Claude Code Lost My 4-Hour Session" headlines are made of. One reported crash bug (#30700) stemmed from session storage that was never created, so nothing ever persisted. Power Claude's writes happen up front, every time.

The API bill was $47k. The job ran overnight with no warning.

The LLM Usage Dashboard shows live $/session, per-account token tracking, and a cache-read vs output breakdown as the work runs — plus plan-tier-aware hard-cap alerts that fire BEFORE your quota dies, not after the invoice lands. You see the wall coming with room to stop.

It catches what most dashboards miss: over 90% of the tokens in a Claude Code session are cache reads — invisible to naive trackers, still billing. Power Claude surfaces them and ties spend to the account and turn that incurred it, so an overnight run can't quietly become a four- or five-figure surprise. [DeSight — $47k invoice case]

You own five Claude accounts. You're only ever using one.

Power Claude runs all your accounts as one coordinated fleet — named once, then rotated automatically the moment you hit a limit. No logging out, no pasting the thread into a fresh login, no friction tax every time you hit a wall. The other four accounts finally do work instead of sitting idle.

That's the whole difference between owning five accounts and actually getting five accounts' worth of throughput. Five Pro accounts ≈ $83/mo, roughly half the cost of Claude Max ($200/mo) — same ceiling, ~$117/mo kept in your pocket. Balanced / Burst / Single rotation policies, a VS Code & Cursor sidebar, and a pc CLI, all local — Power Claude never sees your prompts, and your accounts stay on your machine.

Your agent should keep working after you close the laptop.

Power Claude runs your accounts as a coordinated fleet — watchdog and session recovery as a single layer beneath Claude Code, with multi-account tools for seats you own. Official mode pauses on usage limits; optional Auto-Rotation is available when you opt in.

The alternative costs more than people realize. Logging out, logging back in, rebuilding context after every rate limit: a minute and a full context switch each time. Multiply that across a day of agentic sessions and it's hours that should have been output. Power Claude handles the recovery work: session recovery, watchdog auto-resume, and multi-account routing tools — polished VS Code + CLI product, your accounts never leaving your machine.

100% local Power Claude never sees your prompts; your accounts stay on your machine
One coordinated layer beneath Claude Code — watchdog and session recovery keep local jobs supervised while you are away from the keyboard.

Leave it running. Come back to a finished task.

Every "Should I continue?" prompt and every hard stop that needs a human at the keyboard steals hours from agentic work. Your agent isn't stuck because the work is done — it's stuck because the tooling needed a babysitter. Across a day of sessions, that's idle time you didn't notice until you returned.

Silent throttles add a second layer. Anthropic may downgrade sessions to Haiku without a clear badge — slower, cheaper output quietly standing in for your intended model. Power Claude detects the downgrade per turn and surfaces it before it degrades your work.

Power Claude removes the babysitting classes that matter: auto-nudge clears trivial stops, watchdog detects stalls and crashes, and same-profile auto-resume keeps continuity on the seat that started the job. Optional Auto-Rotation Engine (off by default, opt-in with risk notice) can coordinate additional seats you own. Come back to progress, not a stalled prompt.

Community savings

$3,765,149 saved and counting

Estimated savings across Power Claude users who run multiple Claude Pro seats they own instead of stacking Max plans — derived from our public cross-store install count.

How we calculate this
  • Active users are estimated at 40% of our public cross-store download count — deliberately conservative; most installs are trials or second machines.
  • Each active user is assumed to otherwise need ~1.5 Claude Max 20× plans ($200/mo each) to match the throughput of multiple Pro seats they own.
  • What they run instead: five Claude Pro seats they own ($83/mo total) plus Power Claude Pro ($12/mo) — so one user's estimated saving is $205/mo.
  • The cumulative figure integrates a linear adoption ramp from 2026-05-01 to today — early months count for less, not full weight.
  • This is an estimate derived from public install counts, not a measured total. Once opt-in usage telemetry reaches a meaningful threshold, this counter switches to tracked, real figures.

*Estimated total based on opt in telemetry of Power Claude usage.

Power Claude features — every agentic model

By popular demand we expanded beyond Claude-only chrome. One control plane for <strong>Claude, Grok, Codex, Gemini, and Kimi</strong> (Model tabs · auto-discover · pin/hide), plus the rotation engine, watchdog, session recovery, Token Saver, usage dashboard, and CLI. Public money/trial chrome stays honest on Claude savings; multi-host isolation keeps fleets from clobbering each other.

HOW THE SAVINGS WORK

Why five Pro accounts beat one Max plan — and how Power Claude makes that usable.

The money math most people miss: Anthropic’s Claude Max 20× is about $200/mo for a single high-cap seat. Five legitimate Claude Pro seats (about $16.66/mo each on annual billing) total about $83/mo — so you keep roughly the same 5-hour session capacity class while {{saving $117+/mo}} vs Max. Or keep spending ~$200 and run more Pro seats for ~2.5× the pool instead of one Max login.

Why that works: Max’s premium is mostly a higher ceiling on one account. Five Pro profiles each carry their own session budget; pooled capacity ≈ one Max 20× session class without paying Max’s single-seat markup.

What Power Claude does: it manages seats you already own (profiles + config dirs) so you see health, pick the right seat before work, and keep each session on its originating profile by default — no silent account hopping. When a seat hits a limit, Power Claude pauses and tells you (wait, switch plan, or API mode). Optional Auto-Rotation Engine (off by default; explicit opt-in with grey-area warning) can continue across seats you own after you turn it on — never a silent install default.

ALL AGENTIC MODELS

Expanded by popular demand — Claude, Grok, Codex, Gemini, and Kimi in one chrome.

Power Claude started as deep Claude Code orchestration. Operators asked for the same control plane on every agentic host they already run. Model tabs now scope Home, sessions, usage, and settings by host family: Claude · Grok · Codex · Gemini · Kimi (plus Mixtures / All when you need them).

What ships: auto-discover seats and API keys (e.g. KIMI_API_KEY / Moonshot), pin the hosts you care about, hide the rest so the strip stays quiet. Universal account list and pool chrome — same verbs on every host, not a Claude-only fork.

Honest scope: public Marketplace SKU stays Claude-first for money/trial chrome; multi-host tabs unlock with lab or host products. When Anthropic is AUTH-DEAD, gateway mixtures can still route brains like Kimi K3 under contracts — not a fake “one model forever” product.

Spread concurrent Claude Code sessions across seats you own.

When you run many Claude Code sessions at once on a single seat, work serializes. Balanced Mode (Pro) scores healthy seats you configured — by 5-hour utilization, in-flight count, and recent burn — and prefers the seat with the most headroom for new work. Round-robin is available when you want deterministic ordering. The interactive model below is illustrative typical math, not a service guarantee: at 10 concurrent sessions, one seat queues everything, while five independent seats can finish a round sooner in a simple queue model. Drag the slider to feel the gap.

Drag the slider. Watch how long one round of agent activity takes on a single account versus a Balanced pool.

Power Balanced — 5 accounts 5× faster
1.2 min

At 10 concurrent sessions, each round finishes about 5.0× sooner across 5 accounts. A single account begins serializing requests once it runs more sessions than it has headroom for.

Methodology

Time per round is modeled as T(N, M) ≈ T0 × max(1, N/M), where N = concurrent sessions, M = accounts in your profiles, and T0 = a typical round on a fully unsaturated account (~0.6 min). Speedup is min(M, N) — at 10 sessions across 5 accounts that is 5×. Real-world gaps widen further: a single account hitting its TPM and RPM ceilings at once serializes requests, so measured rounds can run slower than this linear-queue model predicts. Numbers shown are illustrative typical values, not service guarantees.

Time per round vs concurrent sessions Two line series showing minutes to finish one round of agent activity as concurrent sessions rise from 1 to 20. Single account climbs linearly to 12 minutes at 20 sessions; a 5-account Balanced pool stays flat near 0.6 minutes through 5 sessions, then rises gently to 2.4 minutes at 20 sessions.

Get more out of the tokens you already pay for.

Multi-account rotation gets you more Claude for less money. The Token Saver makes sure you waste less of it. Power Claude trims the low-signal noise out of what Claude reads — the bulky tool results in every request (command output, build logs, diffs, JSON dumps) — before they reach the model, so leaner context leaves more room for real work and you hit context-limit walls less often. It is reversible and audited: lossless where it can be, and it never fabricates — only noise is dropped, while the lines you actually need (errors, stack frames, diff changes) are always preserved. Across the bulky blocks it actually trims you'll typically see ~25%+ off that output, reaching up to 90% on the most repetitive — and rather than quote a session-wide average, we show your real, live savings on your own traffic, every token counted, not estimated. You choose how far it goes on a simple slider — from Light cleanup to Max — and it is on by default at Balanced, so the savings start the moment you install. Token Saver how-to · Help hub.

NEVER TYPE "CONTINUE" AGAIN

Your session continues itself.

When Anthropic 429s you mid-task, Power Claude snapshots the conversation, rotates to the healthiest available account, and continues the session — silently if you want, or with a one-line notice in the panel. autoSnapshotSessions captures conversation state every 60 seconds and on shutdown so nothing is lost on rotate. autoSelectSoonest picks the account whose 5-hour window resets first — keeping your runway long. crossEnvironment scopes whether the resume fires in any open IDE or only the one that paused. Walk away. Come back. The work is done. Auto-Resume how-to · Help hub.

WAKES YOU BACK UP

Hit a 429? Power Claude already scheduled your comeback.

When a session stops for a recoverable reason on the same profile, Power Claude can schedule a local resume (including timed wake via systemd-run where available) with reason-aware context — not a generic "continue". Subscription limits still pause until the official window resets or you choose an official option. Walk away from a recoverable stop; come back to progress on the same profile.

SESSIONS THAT SURVIVE

Sessions that don't disappear. Context that survives.

The session lane view shows your last N sessions with full context snapshots, resumable at any point. The Resume Session command injects the prior session's working context into the new conversation — tool call history, file changes, decision chain — so Claude Code picks up exactly where it left off. Pre-commit review integrates the session continuity data with blame attribution so reviewers understand why each change was made.

68 sessions preserved · zero context loss on rotation

LEAVE IT LOOPING

Point Claude at a loop. Walk away. Come back to a finished project.

A loop is Claude Code's own /loop or /goal — re-issue one objective until it's done. A raw loop dies on the first rate limit, crash, or "should I continue?". Power Claude is the layer underneath: multi-account rotation and Balanced Mode turn rate limits into handoffs, Auto-Rewake schedules a comeback when the whole pool is cooling, the watchdog catches crashes, and Auto-Resume clears the trivial stops at every iteration boundary. The loop keeps re-issuing the objective; the layer keeps the loop alive. Start a multi-hour build, walk away, come back to finished work.

KNOW HOURS IN ADVANCE

Runout Forecaster tells you when your pool will hit a wall.

Power Claude's estimator watches utilization across every account in your pool and projects, at your current burn rate, whether you'll exhaust capacity before the 5-hour or 7-day windows reset. The Overview tab shows a single color-coded pool banner — green when you're safe through the next reset, amber when some accounts will exhaust before reset, red when the pool is about to hit a wall in minutes. Each account row also gets a tiny ETA chip so you can spot the bottleneck without opening drawers. Works in both Balanced and single-account modes; reset times come from Anthropic's authoritative rate-limit headers, so the "will I make it?" half of the math is exact — only burn rate is estimated, from a rolling sample buffer.

Come back to a finished task.

A long agent job runs for hours — the watchdog answers benign stops, same-profile resume keeps state, and the run finishes on its own. No babysitting, no restarts.

SEE YOUR BURN RATE

Know your burn rate before you hit the wall.

The LLM usage analytics panel shows real-time token consumption per account, rolling 5-hour totals against unified quota windows, and a cap-hit recommender that tells you exactly which account to switch to before you exhaust the current one. The recommendation engine calibrates to your actual plan tier from the rate-limit responses it observes in your own sessions. Bonus: every turn shows which model actually answered — so you know when you're paying Opus prices for Haiku output.

SEE THE PIPELINE BEFORE IT RUNS

Every gate, branch, and sub-agent in the harness — mapped before it runs.

Power Claude's harness runs a real pipeline around every edit — placement and policy gates, save-time linting, approval reviewers, and sub-agents that fan out on demand. The Harness Flow Graph lets you see that whole pipeline staticallywhat will run, for any LLM client, without running it: each lifecycle event, tool matcher, blocking gate, and agent-spawn point, with per-client adapter modes (native, translated, or disabled) shown inline. It is the same picture in three places from one shared engine: pc workflow in the terminal, an interactive graph in VS Code, and the diagram on this page — all generated from the real pipeline manifest, so the map can never drift from what the harness actually does.

INSIDE THE DASHBOARD

Every signal — and every routine action — in one panel.

The sidebar dashboard turns the panel most users see on every session into a hub you can act from. A 60-minute session handoff lane graph shows every recent rotation as a curved bezier between account lanes; state-encoded dots (●/◌/×/◇) carry the signal independently of colour.

YOUR PROMPTS NEVER TOUCH OUR SERVERS

A local-only companion. Your code and prompts stay yours.

Power Claude runs entirely inside your editor. It reads your local Claude Code session files and works with your own accounts — it never sees, stores, or transmits your prompts, your code, or your conversation. There are no Neural-LLM servers in the request path, no telemetry, and no external aggregation. The only thing that ever leaves your machine is an anonymous license check — a hashed key and a timestamp, nothing about your work. So when a security reviewer or a client asks "where does our code go with this installed?", the honest answer is: nowhere new. Power Claude adds nothing to your data path, so there is nothing extra to audit.

No servers in the request path · no telemetry · never sees prompts or code · anonymous license check only

CRASH-PROOF SESSIONS

Catches session crashes before you notice them.

Four independent detection rules monitor every session in real time: (1) quota exhaustion on the active account, (2) 429 rate-limit header detection, (3) consecutive tool-call timeout pattern, (4) model-switch downgrade signal. When any rule fires, the watchdog emits a structured event so you can resume on the same originating profile, clear a trivial stop, or — only if you enabled Auto-Rotation Engine — continue across seats you own.

Watchdog catches it. Session Recovery rescues it.

4 detection rules · same-profile resume · optional engine opt-in

PRO · RESCUE LOST WORK

When Claude's context window collapses, your work doesn't have to die with it.

Autocompact thrashing, context overflow, tool loops, crashes — Power Claude detects them by name, then picks the right recovery strategy for the failure. For a thrashed session, naive claude --resume just re-thrashes. Power Claude exports the session, trims it, and resumes in a fresh context — your $4 of token investment rescued for ~$0.12. Every recovery snapshots your working tree first using the same drift-free git refs that power Session Trail, so a bad recovery is one click to undo. CLI for headless workflows: pc session list --failed, pc session recover <id>, pc session bundle for cross-machine resume.

Recover one session by hand, or finish them all at once: pc resume-stalled 1d finds every abandoned or stalled session inside the window you give it, resumes each in its own isolated git worktree in parallel, and merges the finished work into your local main — nothing is pushed. It reads Claude Code's live-process registry first, so a session you still have open is skipped, never taken over. Old sessions are safe too: each is rebased on your current main and verifies the work is not already done before it changes anything, so finishing a stale session can't undo newer work. You get back a readable report — what each session was, what got finished, what merged, and what still needs you. Resume stalled how-to · Help hub.

KNOW WHAT /REWIND CAN'T UNDO

Claude's /rewind has a blind spot. Power Claude names it.

Claude Code's built-in /rewind only tracks files Claude edited through its own tools — it can't restore anything a bash command, a build step, a hand-edit, or another session changed, and it won't warn you. Power Claude reads both checkpoint layers — Claude's native /rewind history and its own durable, bash-inclusive session snapshot ref — and computes the bash-gap: the exact files that changed this session that /rewind would silently fail to restore. Power Claude's snapshot can. Today it runs on the command line: pc session checkpoints <id> and pc session bash-gap <id>. Checkpoints how-to · Help hub.

L0 native /rewind + L1 durable snapshot · bash-gap = changed − tool-edited · CLI: pc session checkpoints / bash-gap

CATCH FORGOTTEN SESSIONS

Catch incomplete sessions before they ship as bugs.

When a Claude Code session ends with pending task-list items AND sits idle for 60+ minutes, Power Claude auto-flags it Abandoned — surfaced with a red alert on the Sessions tab. Auto-Resume offers (but doesn't force) recovery for these sessions, so half-finished features don't slip into production unnoticed. The full taxonomy — Active / Saved / Unfinished / Abandoned — gives you status at a glance, with origin filter (VS Code vs CLI), per-row tags (incomplete, long-running, rate-limited), and one-click resume in this window or another.

WORK / JOB A / CLIENT B

Account groups: scoped pools for each job — not one flat rotator.

Name a group for Work, Job A, or Client B. Put only those Claude seats in it. Pool within that set, activate it when that engagement is live, and hard-isolate projects/memory so other jobs never inherit the context. Flat rotators dump every login into one pool; dual config dirs only separate logins. Groups add the missing layer: group → pool that set → run that engagement. Drag membership in Profiles → Account groups or pc scope create|add|use. Credentials stay private per account. Deep dive · docs.

FLEET COORDINATION

Sessions that talk to each other — not only to their children.

Most agent stacks isolate top-level sessions. Power Claude surfaces a signed, local inter-session message bus (hurc harness engine) so independently opened coding sessions can coordinate: peer notes, work claims, lock ETA, broadcast freezes, and optional wake of parked sessions. Bodies stay on your machine via Neural-LLM — local bus, not a cloud chat. Deep dive: Claude Code sessions that talk to each other. Across machines: remote session link.

signed local bus · work claims · lock ETA · optional wake · zero cloud body path

CROSS-MACHINE FLEET

Link coding sessions across laptops, bastions, and servers.

When agents do not share a home directory, the local bus cannot reach them. Power Claude surfaces the harness opt-in remote link plane: MagicSync-style token pairing, default observe mode (note/reply/ack as untrusted peer data), volume or SSH transport, and a setup UI that consumes the harness remote-insight pack. No Neural-LLM cloud hop for message bodies. Deep dive: Link AI coding sessions across machines · local bus: sessions that talk on one machine.

BILL BY PROJECT

A resettable token meter for every client.

If you bill clients by usage, "how many tokens did this project burn?" is the question the lifetime and 7-day totals can't answer. The Token Trip Odometer is a car-style trip meter for tokens: start a named trip per client or project and it counts from that moment, independent of every other counter. Reset zeroes it for a fresh billing window, Close freezes the total, and you can run several trips at once. Each shows input / output / total tokens, elapsed time, and an estimated dollar value for invoicing reference. Trips persist across editor reloads and derive from Power Claude's existing daily-token ledger, so the feature adds no overhead to the request path.

named trips per client/project · reset / close / resume · tokens + ≈$ estimate per trip · survives reloads · zero proxy overhead

FIND THE LEAK · CUT THE COST

See where every token goes — then stop paying for the wasted ones.

When Claude fans work out to sub-agents that spawn their own sub-agents, a session's token cost disappears into a tree you can't see — and you pay for all of it. The Orchestration Token Tree reconstructs that whole tree from your local session transcript — every prompt, every recursively nested sub-agent — and rolls input / output / cache-read / cache-write tokens and an estimated dollar cost up each branch. A flame chart makes the waste obvious at a glance: bar width is proportional to tokens, so the one runaway agent burning half your context is the widest bar on the row. Because every branch is priced, the waste is quantified, not guessed — you can see at a glance that a single sub-agent re-reading the same four files cost 1.3M tokens (≈ $4.92) on this run. Cut that redundancy and you get the headroom — and the money — straight back; leaner context also means you hit context-limit walls less often, so you get more done per session. It runs in the terminal too (pc tree, with a cost view and the heaviest-branch list), updates live as a session runs, and exports the same tree to any OpenTelemetry backend (Grafana Tempo, Honeycomb, SigNoz…) with pc tree --otlp — no API key, all reconstructed from data already on your disk.

PRO · MULTI-HOST SAFETY

The same auto permission safety — for Claude, Grok, Codex, and every agent you run.

Multi-host permission safety. Power Claude’s zero-token classifier is the portable allow/deny floor for Claude Code, Grok, Codex, Cursor, and other agents — including hosts with no native permission auto. One policy, every client.

TEN WINDOWS, ONE SAFE WRITER

Concurrent windows can't clobber your settings or rotation state.

When ten VS Code windows share one profile list, they all read-modify-write the same files — ~/.claude/settings.json and the live profile-organization state. Without coordination that is a classic last-write-wins race: two windows flip the active account at the same moment and one update vanishes, or a half-written settings file lands corrupt. Power Claude serializes every write behind an atomic cross-process lock (O_CREAT | O_EXCL) so exactly one window writes at a time and the rest queue for a few milliseconds. If a window crashes mid-write, stale-lock recovery detects the dead holder and reclaims the lock — no manual cleanup, no wedged state. Your settings and rotation state stay intact no matter how many windows you run.

GLANCE, DON'T DIG

The state of every account, the active file, and Claude's permission mode — at a glance.

The right-side VS Code status bar is the daily dashboard. Healthy / cooling / blocked account counts. Today's spend in dollars. Active permission mode (auto / default / plan / work aroundPermissions) with a one-click toggle for the compliance-sensitive switch from default to work around-permissions and back.

Power Claude ships a fully-fledged CLI for terminal-first developers and a dedicated activity-bar tree for VS Code / Cursor / Windsurf users — same state, two surfaces. Both run against local ~/.power-claude/ data, no cloud round-trip, no telemetry. pc list renders the live profile list as a Unicode table with quota bars, reset times, and active/parallel markers. pc status shows the one-screen system summary. pc rotate picks the next healthiest account. pc relogin walks an account through OAuth without leaving the terminal. pc doctor runs a 16-check diagnostic.

DOES THE SAFE WORK · ASKS YOU FOR THE REST

Keeps going on the trivial stops — and only the trivial stops.

Claude pauses constantly on stops that are really just the next obvious step: "Want me to continue?", "Now let me wire X", "remaining: …", or it promises to continue and then ends the turn anyway. Auto-Resume decides what to do on your machine first — a tier classifier reads each stop locally and resumes the clear continuations with no API call at all, while leaving genuine stops parked (a real question, a "done — standing by" wrap-up, an open approval gate). Only a genuinely mixed stop reaches a model, and even then it does item-level triage: it finishes the parts that are safe and in-scope, and defers only the parts that need you — a commit, a deferred decision, another session's files. It works on subscription plans (no API key required), every resumed turn carries a ↻ marker that says why it continued, and an Auto-Resume Audit shows every decision. Net effect: the agent finishes the safe work on its own and saves your attention for the calls that are actually yours. Auto-Nudge how-to · Objective Mode · Auto-Resume & Rewake.

KNOWS WHEN YOU NEED MORE

Tells you when to upgrade — and when Anthropic downgraded you.

Power Claude can surface local recommendations from your own logs (for example plan options when limits are frequent). Throttled so you are not nagged. Recommendations are computed locally — zero telemetry leaves your machine unless you opt in. Your session data stays yours.

SUPPORT-READY BUNDLES

Export your logs without leaking your credentials.

Power Claude exports its own logs as a sanitized bundle ready for a support ticket, an audit, or a postmortem. The export pipeline redacts API keys, OAuth tokens, session secrets, and credential-shaped strings before writing the tarball. Toggle includeRateLimitLogs and includeHandlerLogs to scope what goes in. Output lands in logExport.outputDir (default ~/.power-claude/exports/) named with timestamp and a content hash. Share confidently. Open the tarball, eyeball it, attach it — no manual scrubbing.

ONE TIMELINE, ALL EDITS

See Claude Code edits in VS Code's native Timeline view.

Here's the gap most people never notice: Claude Code's edits don't show up in VS Code's native Timeline. Local History tracks the files you save and git tracks the commits you make — but an AI agent writing files straight to disk slips past both, leaving a blind spot in the editor's built-in history exactly where the agent did the most work. Power Claude closes it: every Claude Code edit is registered in the built-in Timeline view alongside your manual saves and git commits — one unified chronological audit trail in the editor sidebar, so you can finally see the full change history. Click any entry to jump to that point in file history. No external storage; all data is local and tied to your git refs (refs/power-claude/sessions/<id>/{start,end}). Works alongside Session Trail for end-to-end traceability: gutter ⚡ for "which session", Timeline for "what changed when".

TRACE EVERY LINE

See which AI session edited each line of code.

Session Trail adds a ⚡ icon in the editor gutter for every AI-edited line, plus CodeLens ("⚡ N sessions · last X ago") above functions. Hover any marked line and the popup shows the contributing session ID, model, and diff hunk. Click to open the session in the Sessions tab. The Edit History side panel lists every session that has touched the active file, sortable by model. Pre-Commit Review pulls all of this together at commit time, so reviewers see the complete AI decision chain before push — not after a bug report.

Pre-Commit Review opens on stage. It pairs your staged diff with session attribution: which session introduced which change, which model answered, and the full tool-call sequence that led to each modification — pulled from the same snapshot refs that power Session Trail. Reviewers see the reasoning behind every line, not just the line itself. Surface a Session Graph (DAG of commits + tool calls) for any session, single or multi.

CLAUDE CORE

Always know why your session is paused — and trust it to come back

When your whole profile list is rate-limited, Claude Code shows nothing but a spinner — you can't tell paused from hung. Power Claude surfaces the real reason and the soonest recovery time, then keeps its existing promise: the session resumes itself the moment a window clears, even hours later. Visibility plus unattended recovery, no babysitting.

PAUSED, NOT STUCK

Know exactly why your session is paused — and trust it to resume itself.

When every Claude account in your pool is rate-limited at once, Power Claude doesn't give up: its proxy keeps each session's retry loop alive (short synthetic-429 waits) so a session auto-resumes the instant a window clears. The problem was that Claude Code only showed its generic "thinking" spinner — no reason, no ETA — so a paused session looked exactly like a hung one. Power Claude now surfaces the real state in one consistent line across four surfaces: a VS Code status-bar banner, the Claude Code statusline, a one-time onset toast, and pc status — reading, for example, All Claude accounts rate-limited · auto-resume ~32m (22:30). It names the actual condition and the soonest reset across the pool, then clears itself automatically when an account frees up. And it pairs with what Power Claude already does: it resumes the session on its own, even hours later — even when the long 5-hour or weekly window won't clear for hours, you walk away and it picks the work back up the instant the window opens.

OPTIONAL · REQUIRES THE OFFICIAL CLAUDE CODE EXTENSION

Enhancements to the official Claude Code extension

Optional. These patches augment the extension Anthropic ships — toggle each off in settings, or remove them anytime, and keep using Power Claude.

Everything in this section is optional. These are surgical patches applied directly to the Claude Code VS Code extension you already have installed — not separate tools. Power Claude fixes the rough edges Anthropic hasn't shipped yet: stops Claude Code stealing your cursor, pins your original request to every session, stamps each message with the time it was sent, badges your session list so it's readable at a glance. Every patch is reversible and self-heals across Claude Code auto-updates. Turn any single one off, or uninstall Power Claude entirely, and the editor returns to stock — the core of Power Claude (session orchestration, the savings, and auto-resume) works fully without any of them.

CONTEXT CONTROL

Your open file is not Claude's business — until you say so.

By default, Claude Code attaches whatever file you have open to every prompt. That means a prompt about your build script silently ships the API key in .env you happen to have open in the next tab, and a question about a CSS class drags in a 3,000-line component — roughly 30k tokens — you weren't even asking about, re-sent on every turn. Across one focused Opus session that's up to ~$34 of token spend on a file you never referenced. Power Claude flips that switch off. The chip still shows in the chat input — one click attaches the active file when you actually want it — but nothing is attached to your prompt until you opt in. Self-heals across Claude Code auto-updates.

up to ~$34/session in unspent tokens · opt-in instead of opt-out · one click to attach · self-heals across updates

STOPS THE CURSOR YANK

Claude Code stops stealing your cursor.

Default Claude Code yanks your editor focus every time its panel reveals, output arrives, or a file is shown — break your flow once per turn, every turn. Power Claude patches the extension to pass preserveFocus:true on every autonomous reveal, show, and showTextDocument call. Your cursor stays where you put it. Patch is mtime-detected and re-applied automatically when the extension updates — no maintenance, no re-config.

ZERO CONTEXT TOKENS

UI features that work without touching your context window

The features below inject directly into VS Code and Claude Code's DOM — no prompt instructions sent to the model, no system-context additions, no output tokens burned rendering them. Power Claude patches the running webview at the UI layer so these surfaces appear for free, every session.

NEVER LOSE TRACK OF WHAT A SESSION IS FOR

Your original request, pinned to every session — injected by Power Claude, not written by the AI.

When you have ten Claude Code windows open at once, the chat title alone doesn't tell you which is which. Power Claude reads your first message directly from the session transcript and injects a slim banner at the top of each conversation pane — no prompt engineering, no LLM instructions, zero context tokens consumed. The banner carries the Power Claude bolt badge (hover to confirm the source) and disappears if you dismiss it for that session. It self-heals across Claude Code auto-updates the same way every other Power Claude DOM patch does. Useful when: you start a session, get rate-limited for two hours, come back to ten open windows, and need to know in one glance which is which — without re-reading the whole transcript.

DOM injection · reads JSONL directly · zero context tokens · SVG bolt badge · dismissible per-session · self-heals on update

ZERO-TOKEN CLOCK

Every chat bubble knows what time it is.

Claude Code's chat doesn't tell you when each message happened — so when you come back to a session that was running unattended, every bubble looks like "just now." Power Claude stamps each bubble with your local HH:MM the moment it renders. Pure client-side via DOM injection — the value never enters the JSONL transcript, so it's invisible to the model and costs zero context tokens. Self-heals across Claude Code auto-updates.

HH:MM on every message · 0 context tokens · DOM-injected · self-heals across updates

SESSION EXPLORER, ENHANCED

A session list you can actually read

Power Claude enriches Claude Code's Session Explorer so a long list reads at a glance: a lifecycle glyph on every row, a live-dot on the session being driven right now, a modal that stops two windows racing the same transcript, and background tab-warming so any session opens instantly. All injected into the extension UI — no transcript writes, no token cost.

READ A SESSION LIST AT A GLANCE

Five glyphs tell you a session's state without opening it.

Out of the box, every session in Claude Code's Session Explorer looks the same — you have to click in to find out which ones still matter. Power Claude prefixes every row with a glyph for its lifecycle state: 🟢 active, ✅ completed, 🟡 stale, ⚠️ abandoned, 📦 archived. A long list reads at a glance instead of forcing you to open each one. The classifier is deterministic — driven by transcript age, last-event type, and pending TodoWrite items — so the badge is reliable, not guessed.

5-state taxonomy · deterministic classifier · prefixed inline · O(1) glance scan

RIGHT NOW VS IDLE

A live-dot overlay tells you which session Claude is driving this second.

Even with lifecycle badges, "active" is ambiguous — a session can be active and idle between turns. Power Claude's extension watches a heartbeat sidecar in ~/.power-claude/state/session-live/ and overlays a pulsing green dot onto the lifecycle badge whenever the heartbeat is less than 10 seconds old. You can tell at a glance which session is being driven right now versus sitting between turns waiting for input. Zero polling on the UI side — the sidecar timestamp does the work.

pulsing live dot · 10-second heartbeat · zero UI polling · disambiguates idle from running

TWO WINDOWS, ONE SESSION

A modal stops you racing your own JSONL writer.

Clicking Resume on a session that another VS Code window is already driving silently corrupts the JSONL transcript — both windows write concurrently and the loser's turn vanishes. Power Claude intercepts the Resume click and pops a modal: Take over (signal the other window to release the lock) or Open read-only (browse the transcript without writing). Either way, the session history stays drift-free. No more "where did my last 10 turns go?" diagnostics.

OPEN EVERYTHING, CLICK NOTHING

Open twenty sessions — and never click through them to load each one.

Power Claude is built for developers who keep many Claude Code sessions open at once. But Claude Code only loads a session's conversation when its tab is first revealed — so reopening a window with twenty sessions taxes you with twenty clicks just to wake each one. Tab Warming removes that tax. The moment VS Code finishes restoring, Power Claude reveals each open session once — using Claude Code's own open command, which reveals the existing tab, never a duplicate — to force the conversation to render, then puts you right back on the tab you were on. Loading a webview means revealing it, so the sweep is briefly visible — but it runs once, only when you've been idle a moment, speeds up adaptively when your machine keeps up, and aborts and restores your tab the instant you touch anything. On by default. Tab Warming how-to · Help hub.

NO MORE COMPACTION FREEZE

Pre-summarize the conversation in the background, so the compaction freeze never has to happen.

Claude Code freezes your session for minutes when the context window fills and it has to summarize the whole conversation inline. Warm Compacting removes that wait by doing the expensive part ahead of time: while you are still approaching the limit, Power Claude pre-summarizes the earlier ~80% of the conversation in the background — stored sidecar-only, never in your live context and never touching the transcript. When the wall is near, Power Claude substitutes that pre-built compact for the early conversation and keeps the recent tail verbatim, so the context window never crosses the line that triggers the freeze — the pause simply does not happen. The recent ~20% is always kept verbatim, so the context you care about most is never lost. On by default, and no regression by design: if anything is ever off (an edited session, an unsafe cut point) it falls back to normal compaction. A brand-stamped ⚡ Warm Compact chip in the statusline and dashboard shows it working; inspect it any time with pc warm-compact. How-to guide · Self-help hub.
