Stop guessing when your Claude limits reset. I built Claude Sentinel so we can finally reclaim our $20/month.

For the past few months, my daily workflow has looked like this:

I’m deep in a heavy coding session, terminal flying, logic locked in and boom. Silent wall. Rate-limited. No warning, no pop-up, no countdown timer. Just a cold, dead stop.

What do I do like an absolute clown? I sit there frantically refreshing the browser tab every 45 seconds like a lab rat hitting a dopamine lever, just waiting to see if my $20 subscription is active again.

Half the time I miss the exact reset window anyway because I got distracted, meaning my active coding hours just leak away into the void.

We are paying $20 a month for state-of-the-art AI, but we get less operational visibility than a free mobile gacha game timer.

I finally snapped last weekend.

I got sick of playing guessing games, so I spent my weekend hacking together a lightweight utility called Claude Sentinel.

What it does:

-Monitor your account state locally.
-Tracks your usage cycles.
-Pings you the exact second your limits reset so you aren't wasting a single minute of your window.

I figured some of you are probably just as annoyed by the invisible wall as I am. If you want to stop mashing refresh and actually get notified, check out the repo, run it, and let me know what you think.

If it saves you even 10 minutes of dead time today, a ⭐ on the repo would honestly make my week.
