Gengchou is a lightweight native Windows taskbar widget and system-tray app for viewing the quota windows reported by Claude, Codex, Google Antigravity, and Grok without opening a provider dashboard. On first start it asks once for permission, then detects which providers are signed in on this machine and shows only those. Nothing is read before permission is granted, and access can be revoked per provider at any time. It has no analytics, telemetry, or separate backend service, and it does not store provider tokens.
What's new in 2.5.3
The daily update check now raises a silent balloon once per version. Clicking it asks whether to update. The detail popup footer shows the waiting version while an update is outstanding and that line is clickable. A remembered offer that is not newer than the running build is treated as up to date. A failed automatic check does not clear the last successful offer.
