Widget for Windows

[JiglioNero]

Hi! Could you consider adding a Windows widget via a Rainmeter skin, similar to the macOS menubar integration?

CodeBurn already has CLI/JSON output, so it seems feasible to display usage/cost/token stats in a lightweight Rainmeter widget on Windows.

I started some of this work. I have the Spending and Models (7 Days) sections working. My fork is available here:

To get the same chart design in Rainmeter, each color stop is its own entity, basically. I'm SURE there has to be a better approach, but I'm a light user of Rainmeter.

I'm completely open to suggestions. Especially to the CodeBurn maintainers - is this 'extras' directory ideal for a Rainmeter integration? My plan is to add codeburn install-rainmeter or something.

already working on once I am confident enough I will let you guys test before merging to main as I am using VM to testing.

The Windows menubar app is ready for testing on the feat/windows-menubar-tauri branch. It's a native system tray app built with Tauri (same React frontend as the macOS version).

What's included:

• System tray icon with popup dashboard (spending, trends, activity, tips)
• Dark/light theme toggle via right-click menu
• Runs in background, refreshes automatically
• No console window flash on data refresh

To try it:

git clone https://github.com/getagentseal/codeburn.git
cd codeburn
git checkout feat/windows-menubar-tauri
cd desktop
npm install
npm run tauri dev

Requires: Node.js, Rust toolchain, and the Tauri prerequisites for Windows.

Or if you just want to build a release binary:

npm run tauri build

The .msi installer will be in desktop/src-tauri/target/release/bundle/msi/.

Would appreciate feedback on any issues - especially around tray icon behavior, theme rendering, and data accuracy. Once it's solid we'll merge to main and add codeburn menubar support for Windows.
