[!NOTE]
This is a fork of j4rviscmd/vscode-zai-usage — all credit for the original extension goes to @j4rviscmd. This fork adds weekly quota display and extra display settings under the name VSCode z.ai Usage Plus.
Display your GLM Coding Plan 5-hour and weekly usage directly in the VS Code status bar
Features
Shows both token quota windows side by side: the 5-hour window and the weekly window (e.g. ⬡ 45% (2h30m) | Week: 12% (3d12h))
Displays time remaining until each quota resets when available
Condensed display style for a minimal status bar label (e.g. ⬡ 45% | Week: 12%)
Shows usage or remaining tokens (displayMode)
The weekly window can be hidden entirely (showWeekly)
Automatically refreshes at a configurable interval
Secure API key storage via VS Code Secret Storage
