Fuelgauge is a Claude Code plugin that displays a status line with folder, git branch, and color-coded progress bars for context, 5-hour, and 7-day usage limits. It's interesting because it solves a real pain point of accidentally exceeding Claude's rate limits by making usage visible directly in the editor without requiring Node.js or making API calls.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs, data engineers
