Expand the popup to show everything the TUI does: period switcher submenu, top activities with one-shot rate, top models, provider breakdown when more than one provider has data, optimize findings, and an updated-timestamp row. Add per-period Open Full Report so the terminal view matches what the popup was showing. For theme compatibility, stop hardcoding colors that don't work on both light and dark GNOME themes. Keep the brand orange (#ff8c42) for the header and findings, let everything else inherit the shell palette, and express dimming through opacity instead of rgba so the popup reads correctly on Yaru Light, Yaru Dark, Adwaita, Adwaita Dark, and any other theme. Add a listener on org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme so the indicator re-applies its .codeburn-dark / .codeburn-light class when the user flips the system theme, without waiting for a reload. |

CodeBurn GNOME Shell extension
Native GNOME panel button that shows today's AI coding spend with a click-to-open popover, matching the feel of Ubuntu's Quick Settings menu.
This is an alternative to the cross-platform Tauri tray app in ../desktop/. Use this on GNOME for the most native UX. The Tauri app stays the right choice for KDE, Unity, wlroots compositors, Windows, and headless systems.
Requirements
- GNOME Shell 45, 46, 47, or 48 (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, 24.04 LTS, and Fedora 39+)
codeburnCLI on PATH (npm install -g codeburn)
Install (from source, local user)
cp -r extensions/gnome-shell/codeburn@agentseal.org ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/
gnome-extensions enable codeburn@agentseal.org
Then restart GNOME Shell so the extension loads:
- X11: press
Alt + F2, typer, press Enter. - Wayland: log out and log back in (GNOME on Wayland has no in-session shell restart).
What it shows
Panel button:
- 🔥 icon
- Today's cost (e.g.
$24.73)
Popup menu:
- Header: period + cost + call count + session count
- Top 5 activities (Coding, Debugging, Testing, etc.) with per-activity cost and turn count
- Optimize findings count with potential savings (if any)
- Refresh and Open Full Report actions
Data refreshes every 60 seconds. Right-click the panel button to open the default panel context menu.
Uninstall
gnome-extensions disable codeburn@agentseal.org
rm -rf ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/codeburn@agentseal.org
Development
Run a nested shell to iterate without restarting your session (X11 only):
dbus-run-session -- gnome-shell --nested --wayland
Tail the extension log:
journalctl -f -o cat /usr/bin/gnome-shell
The extension uses the GNOME 45+ ESM-based extension API (import + Extension class). It will not load on GNOME 44 or earlier.
