cache-meter
A Claude Code plugin that adds a band above the prompt showing remaining prompt-cache time and context window usage, with a Compact button and an opt-in Keep warm toggle that pings the cache while idle.
About this mod
cache-meter is a Claude Code mod distributed as a plugin of function hooks that renders a band above the prompt. It displays how much time is left on the prompt cache and how much of the context window is used, and provides a Compact button. An opt-in Keep warm toggle pings the cache before it expires while you are idle, stopping after 8 idle hours. Install with claude --plugin-dir ./cache-meter; settings live in the mod's .claude-plugin/plugin.json under userConfig.

Mods
| Mod | What it does | | --- | --- | | cache-meter | A band above the prompt showing time left on the prompt cache, how much of the context window is used, a Compact button, and an opt-in Keep warm toggle that pings the cache before it expires while you're idle (stops after 8 idle hours). | | pr-monitor | A pane listing the repository's open pull requests. Tick the ones to watch to see checks, review state and which other watched branches they conflict with. Mark any Auto-merge when green and it merges them one at a time, least-conflicting first, and asks Claude to resolve conflicts (in a temporary worktree, merging rather than rebasing, keeping out of files other watched PRs touch) once nothing else is about to land. |
