Peras
A tool for setting usage limits on AI coding agents. Through a CLI and hooks, it intercepts tool calls that exceed a threshold to prevent weekly quotas from being exhausted, and it provides a Mac menu bar application.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Peras is a tool that sets a weekly usage cap for coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex.
Peras can set the weekly usage cap to 85 via the CLI command 'peras set weekly 85 pause', and when usage exceeds that value the agent's next tool call is rejected along with the reason.
Peras's paused state can be resumed at any time from the terminal or the menu bar app.
Peras offers an optional feature that lets agents be aware of their own usage; this feature is off by default and requires the user to configure it (opt-in).
Peras's CLI and hooks are completely free and open source, under the MIT license.
Peras's native Mac menu bar app is a one-time charge of €4.99.
Peras received 74 votes and 6 comments on Product Hunt, ranking 14th.
Peras's categories on Product Hunt cover developer tools, artificial intelligence, GitHub and menu bar apps.
Peras currently offers only a Mac menu bar app, while the CLI is cross-platform.
Peras's limit granularity is "weekly" and does not support fine-grained control by day or by task.
