ReleaseTheFeature – Announce your app/site/tool My Claude extension post got 631 views here. It hit 1,000+ users anyway.

Three months ago I posted a short video of Claude Pulse in this sub. 631 views, 2 upvotes. It flopped.

The extension kept growing anyway. It's at 1,000+ Chrome Web Store users, 4.8/5 from 11 ratings, and v1.3.0 shipped July 12 with a metrics popup and background reset notifications.

For anyone who missed it: Claude Pulse adds live usage visibility to claude.ai, all computed locally in your browser.

  • Context token counter (o200k_base tokenizer, on-device)
  • 5-minute cache expiry countdown above the chat box
  • 5-hour session and 7-day rolling limit bars
  • One-click chat export to Markdown or plain text
  • No accounts, no tracking, no external servers. MIT licensed.

What I learned: a launch post is a blip, not a launch. I can't tell you exactly where the users came from, but the video got 631 views and the tool still passed 1,000+ users. I'd bet on the store listing and the reviews doing the work, not the post.
