TRMNL tracks monthly token burn

Theo shared a custom TRMNL setup that puts monthly AI token usage on an always-on e-paper dashboard. It is not a new TRMNL launch, but it shows how AI developers are turning token spend into a visible operating metric.

// ANALYSIS

This is a tiny post with a real signal: token usage has become personal infrastructure for AI-heavy developers.

–Ambient dashboards make AI costs harder to ignore than a buried billing page
–TRMNL's plugin-friendly e-paper model fits slow-changing metrics like monthly token totals
–The interesting part is not the hardware, it is developers treating token burn like CPU, uptime, or cloud spend
–For teams using Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and API workflows together, visibility is quickly becoming table stakes

Cursor Bugbot adds local pre-push reviews

Cursor has introduced a local `/review` command that allows developers to run Bugbot and security reviews on code changes before pushing them. If a pull request is later opened with the same diff, Bugbot recognizes the local review and skips running again on CI, saving time and resources.

Claude Code resets usage limits

Anthropic's ClaudeDevs account says it reset 5-hour and weekly usage limits for everyone across all plans, giving Claude Code users fresh quota heading into the weekend. This is an operational reset, not a new feature, but it matters for developers blocked by usage caps.
