Claude Usage Meter — Limits & Chat Export

⌀ Claude Usage Meter — Limits, Artifacts & Chat Backup Track your Claude usage limits in real time and export your full chat history — including code artifacts — in one click. The only extension designed to preserve your complete conversation context when moving to a new chat, a new account, or a different AI agent. ✦ OVERVIEW Claude doesn’t show usage data to Free users at all, and Pro/Team users only get limited visibility through a settings page. Claude Usage Meter brings that information directly into your Claude interface with a live usage bar that updates after every message and optional warnings before you reach your limit. The export system is where the extension becomes especially useful. When you hit a context window or usage limit, you often lose access to valuable conversation history, generated code, reasoning, and artifacts. Most export tools only save plain text. Claude Usage Meter exports the entire conversation, including code artifacts, canvas content, and structured outputs, allowing you to continue your work in a fresh chat, on another account, or inside a different AI assistant without losing context. ◈ KEY FEATURES ✧ Live Usage Meter See your Free, Pro, or Team usage limits update in real time after every message. No refresh button. No digging through settings. ✧ Works on Free Plans Claude provides no usage visibility to Free users by default. This extension surfaces that information automatically. ✧ On-Page Warnings Receive optional alerts when you reach 80% and 100% of your usage limit. Plan ahead before your session ends. ✧ Full-Context Export Export entire conversations as Markdown or JSON with a single click. Preserve chat messages and generated artifacts together. ✧ Artifact-Aware Export Includes: • Code blocks • Canvas outputs • Structured artifacts • Generated content Most export tools strip these elements and only save plain text. ✧ Scope Control Choose exactly what to export: • Full conversation • User messages only • Claude responses only ✧ Multiple Export Modes Switch between: • Auto Detect • Chat Only • Chat + Artifacts ✧ 11 Supported Languages • English • Spanish • French • German • Italian • Dutch • Portuguese (BR) • Japanese • Korean • Russian • Simplified Chinese ✧ Clean Onboarding A guided setup page appears on first install. No configuration required. ⌘ WHO IS THIS FOR? ✧ Claude Free Users Claude provides no visibility into Free plan usage limits. This extension lets you monitor your remaining quota in real time. ✧ Heavy Claude Users (Pro & Team) If you regularly perform: • Research sessions • Code reviews • Multi-step projects • Long conversations you’ve likely hit limits unexpectedly. Now you can see them approaching, export your work, and continue elsewhere without losing progress. ✧ Developers Using Claude as an Agent Many AI workflows allow chat transcripts to be reused. However, if Claude generated: • Code • Diagrams • Structured artifacts • Canvas outputs plain-text exports lose critical information. Claude Usage Meter preserves those artifacts so another AI agent can continue where Claude stopped. ✧ People Switching Accounts or Plans Whether you’re: • Moving to a Team workspace • Upgrading plans • Sharing work with a colleague you can export the full conversation and import it elsewhere. The exported Markdown and JSON formats are portable and AI-friendly. ▸ HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the extension 2. Visit claude.ai 3. The usage meter appears automatically 4.
