2x Promo Time Window

During Anthropic's 2x usage promotion, the status bar shows the bonus window in your local timezone:

Time Status
Weekday off-peak 🔥x2[03:00~21:00] (example in JST)
Weekday peak 1x[21:00~03:00]
Weekend 🔥x2[all day]
Promo expired (hidden)

Peak hours: 8AM-2PM ET (weekdays only). Weekends are always 2x.

Data source

All rate limit data comes directly from Anthropic's official API headers via Claude Code's statusLine stdin injection (requires Claude Code >= v2.1.80). No estimation or guessing.

Upgrading

Auto-updates once per day. To upgrade manually:

pip install --upgrade claude-statusbar

To disable auto-updates: export CLAUDE_STATUSBAR_NO_UPDATE=1
