Right-click the applet and select "Configure..." to access settings:
|
|
|
|
### Available Settings
|
|
|
|

|
|
- **Color for low usage (< 50%)**: Color displayed when usage is below 50% (default: green)

## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Applet shows "ERR"
|
|
|
|
This indicates an error occurred. Click the applet to see the error message in the popup menu. Common issues:
|
|
|
|
1. **"Could not read credentials file"**: The credentials file is missing or inaccessible
|
|
- Check that `~/.claude/.credentials.json` exists
|
|
- Verify file permissions
|
|
|
|
2. **"Authentication failed"**: The OAuth token is invalid or expired
|
|
- Try logging in again with Claude Code
|
|
- Check that the credentials file contains a valid `accessToken`
|
|
|
|
3. **"API error: [status code]"**: The API request failed
|
|
- Check your internet connection
|
|
- The API might be temporarily unavailable
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
2. Restart Cinnamon:
|
|
- Press `Alt+F2`
|
|
