First time opening it?

  1. Open the DMG and drag Slay to Applications.
  2. Open Slay. The first time, macOS blocks it because it isn’t signed with an Apple Developer ID yet.
  3. Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down, and click Open Anyway.
  4. That’s it. Updates install from inside the app and won’t ask again.

Slay Pro includes every future skin.

01Overview

Slay is a free menu bar app and desktop overlay that shows how close you are to the limits on your AI coding plans: Claude Code, ChatGPT and Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, and OpenRouter, across as many accounts as you have.

Every limit you max out earns points, and enough points earn a reward. Pick a skin to change how that looks: Default fills bars toward keys that open treasure chests, and Waifu Rescue turns each limit into a pixel boss to defeat.

Every plan in one place

Session, daily, weekly, and monthly limits for Claude, ChatGPT and Codex, Gemini, Copilot, and OpenRouter credits, with when each one resets.

A floating overlay

A small translucent panel that stays above your other apps on every desktop. Drag it, resize it, set its opacity, or make it click-through.

Your menu bar at a glance

The menu bar icon shows the busiest account’s percentage, with refresh, skins, accounts, and settings one click away.

Signs in on its own

Slay finds the logins Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI already saved on your Mac. API-key providers can be added by hand.

03Privacy

Slay reads your usage through the AI tools’ own logins on your computer and asks each provider directly. Nothing is sent to me: no account, no analytics, no tracking. The only other thing it checks is GitHub, for updates. Activating Slay Pro checks your license key with Polar.
