onWatch: Open-source local API quota tracker with SQLite storage
onWatch is an open-source tool for tracking AI API quotas locally, designed specifically for the local-first software community. It keeps all data on your machine with no external dependencies.
Key Details
The tool's local-first approach includes:
- All data stored in local SQLite database
- No cloud service, no account creation, no telemetry
- Single binary (~13MB) - no runtime dependencies
- Background daemon, <50MB RAM usage
- Dashboard served locally on localhost
onWatch currently tracks 6 cloud API providers: Anthropic, Codex, Copilot, Synthetic, Z.ai, and Antigravity. This is useful for developers who use cloud APIs alongside local models and want visibility into their cloud spending.
The developer mentions potential future features including local model monitoring, such as ollama resource usage and VRAM tracking, if there's community interest.
The tool is available on GitHub at https://github.com/onllm-dev/onwatch.
