Put the gauge
back on your desk.

Installs the menu-bar companion that pairs your RATION and keeps Claude and Codex metering in real time — no dashboards, no menus.

Heads up · the last step

After you install, Claude opens in your browser and gives you a code. Keep this window open and paste that code right here in RATION. Claude's screen will say to paste it into Claude. No worries, it actually goes right here with us.

One last step · Connect a source

Give the gauge
something to read.

The gauge runs on your real usage, so RATION reads it from Claude. You approve once, and a key comes back to your Mac.

Claude
Signed in already? Just approve. A quick sign in if not.
Codex
Already signed in to Codex on this Mac? RATION finds it on its own.
Automatic

The key is read only and never leaves this Mac. Disconnect it any time from the menu.
